  - "The hydrological and biogeochemical response of rivers carries information about
    solute sources, pathways, and transformations in the catchment. We investigate
    long-term water quality data of 11 Swiss catchments with the objective to discern
    the influence of major catchment characteristics and anthropic activities on delivery
    of solutes in stream water. Magnitude, trends, and seasonality of water quality
    samplings of different solutes are evaluated and compared across catchments. Subsequently,
    the empirical dependence between concentration and discharge is used to classify
    the solute behaviors.\r\nWhile the anthropogenic impacts are clearly detectable
    in the concentration of certain solutes (i.e., Na+, Cl−, NO3, DRP), the influence
    of single catchment characteristics such as geology (e.g., on Ca2+ and H4SiO4),
    topography (e.g., on DOC, TOC, and TP), and size (e.g., on DOC and TOC) is only
    sometimes visible, which is also because of the limited sample size and the spatial
    heterogeneity within catchments. Solute variability in time is generally smaller
    than discharge variability and the most significant trends in time are due to
    temporal variations of anthropogenic rather than natural forcing. The majority
    of solutes show dilution with increasing discharge, especially geogenic species,
    while sediment-bonded solutes (e.g., total phosphorous and organic carbon species)
    show higher concentrations with increasing discharge. Both natural and anthropogenic
    factors affect the biogeochemical response of streams, and, while the majority
    of solutes show identifiable behaviors in individual catchments, only a minority
    of behaviors can be generalized across the 11 catchments that exhibit different
    natural, climatic, and anthropogenic features.@eng"
