Nitrate distributions and source identification in the Abbotsford-Sumas Aquifer, northwestern Washington State.

abstract：:Although the reduction of nutrient loading between uplands and streams is sometimes considered evidence of the effect of wetlands acting as buffer zones, the influence of valley bottom wetlands (VBWs) on NO(3)(-) loading has seldom been assessed at the catchment scale. The objective of this study was to quantify the i...
