Winter post-droughts amplify extreme nitrate concentrations in German rivers

Winter post-droughts amplify extreme nitrate concentrations in German rivers

Hydrological extremes can affect nutrient export from catchments to streams, posing a threat to aquatic ecosystems. In this study, we investigated the effects of hydrological drought on nitrate concentrations in the streamflow of 182 German catchments from 1980 to 2020. We found that across all seas...
