Abstract
Increasingly prevalent events such as hurricanes and storms carry runoff water downstream into rivers. This streamflow transports nitrogen and phosphorus to downstream estuaries, where their accumulation contributes to water-quality issues such as algal blooms. Through various statistical analyses, this research aims to explore flow-related variability of nutrients (dissolved inorganic nitrogen and phosphorus) in the lower Apalachicola River.
