    Abstract:
    Non-point source (NPS) pollution has always been the focus of research worldwide, and understanding the migration process is the basis for effective control of NPS pollution. In this study, the SWAT model and digital filtering algorithm were combined to explore the contribution of NPS pollution that migrated with underground runoff (UR) process to the Xiangxi River watershed. The results showed that the surface runoff (SR) was the main migration process of NPS pollution, while the contribution of NPS pollution that migrated with the UR process only accounted for 30.9%. With the decrease in annual precipitation among the three selected hydrological years, the proportion of NPS pollution that migrated with the UR process for TN decreased, whereas the proportion for TP increased. The contribution of NPS pollution migrated with UR process varied remarkably during different months. Although the maximum total load and the load of NPS pollution that migrated with the UR process for TN and TP all appeared in the wet season, due to the hysteresis effect, the load of NPS pollution that migrated with the UR process for TP appeared 1 month later than the total load of NPS pollution. With an increase in precipitation from the dry season to the wet season, the proportion of NPS pollution that migrated with the UR process for TN and TP decreased gradually, and the degree of decrease in NPS pollution that migrated with the UR process for TP was more evident than that for TN. Besides, being affected by topography, land use, and other factors, the proportion of NPS pollution that migrated with the UR process for TN decreased from 80% in upstream areas to 9% in downstream areas, while that for TP reached a maximum of 20% in downstream areas. Based on the research results, the contribution of soil and groundwater cumulative nitrogen and phosphorus should be considered, and different managements and control measures for different migration routes should be adopted in controlling pollution.
