Description

Purpose: The growth of periphyton in streams is enhanced by phosphorus (P) in baseflow. The likely control of P concentrations in baseflow can be approximated by the equilibrium P concentration (EPC₀) of bed sediments. However, sediment composition changes with spatial scale and flood events. It is unknown if this affects EPC₀. Materials and methods: We sampled sediments in a main stem and headwater tributary of an agricultural catchment in Reporoa, New Zealand, before and after a scouring fl...
