Young runoff fractions control streamwater age and solute concentration dynamics

Andrea Rinaldo, Paolo Benettin

We introduce a new representation of coupled solute and water age dynamics at the catchment scale, which shows how the contributions of young runoff waters can be directly referenced to observed water quality patterns. The methodology stems from recent tre ...
