Abstract: 
The WEPP model was evaluated using monthly runoff and erosion data collected from an experiment in an olive orchard on a Vertic soil during four hydrological years, comparing three different soil management systems: no tillage with bare soil (NT), conventional tillage (CT), and cover crop (CC). These three systems differed greatly in average annual runoff and soil losses.
Case study(ies): 
Cover Crops and No-Tillage in an Olive Grove (Andalusia, Spain)
