Abstract: A process-based biogeochemistry model, the ForNBM, was calibrated to simulate stream flows, nutrient concentrations and loadings on a monthly time scale using the field data collected from 1973 to 1985 at the Hayden Brook watershed, a natural forested mixed-hardwood watershed, in central New Brunswick, Canada. The model was then used to assess the major biogeochemical processes that influence soil productivity and the sensitivity of soil acidity and nutrient leaching to different scenarios of atmospheric acid deposition in the Hayden Brook watershed.
