Wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) are considered to be a point source of microplastic
(particles< 5 mm) for riverine environments. However, data on microplastic effluent …

Impacts from urban wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) to receiving riverine surface water
bodies (SWBs) depend on the load of contaminants discharged, as well as on their dilution …

Improving nitrogen (N) status in European water bodies is a pressing issue. N levels depend
not only on current but also past N inputs to the landscape, that have accumulated through …

Long‐term nitrogen (N) transport and retention dynamics across catchments are not well
understood. Using a process‐based model for 89 German catchments, results across study …

Excess nutrients from agricultural and urban development have created a cascade of
ecological crises around the globe. Nutrient pollution has triggered eutrophication in most …

Why have ecological targets for the majority of water bodies in Europe not been met despite
decades of water protection programs? We hypothesize that restoration strategies have not …

Many low‐order streams are recipients of effluents from wastewater treatment plants
(WWTPs) and combined sewer overflows (CSOs). Not only do these facilities have to meet …

Continuous series of nutrient loads released into a water body are essential for nutrient
budgeting, water quality modelling and watershed management activities. A quintessential …

This study was conducted in northern New Jersey, USA, to estimate the nutrient fluxes from
the Passaic River, the Hackensack River and other sources into Newark Bay and the …

The hydrological conditions of river-connected lakes are complex primarily owing to their
considerable water-level fluctuations (WLFs). Water quality in such lakes varies with …
