For both CB and the NAS, nutrient and sediment loads show strong seasonal variability (Figure 2.2). For CB, the annual input cycles of freshwater, TN, TP, and suspended sediment (SS) are typically unimodal with maxima during March–April and minima during July–August. This pattern has been reported for TN in all the major tributaries to CB (Zhang et al., 2015). For the NAS, the annual input cycles of freshwater, TN, and TP tend to be more bimodal with high inputs during April–June and October–December and low inputs during January–March and July–September.
