Abstract

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 nutrient residence time in Newark Bay. Bi-weekly total inorganic nitrogen (TIN) and orthophosphate concentration data in the Passaic River, the Hackensack River, and Newark Bay for over 15 years (2004–2019) were collected along with daily river discharge data from the public database. The annual TIN and orthophosphate (ortho-P) loading from the Passaic River ranged from 915 × 10³ kg y⁻¹ to 251 × 10⁴ kg y⁻¹ and 94 × 10³ kg y⁻¹to 372 × 10³ kg y⁻¹, respectively. The annual TIN and ortho-P loading from the Hackensack River ranged from 3.13 × 10³ kg y⁻¹ to 234 × 10³ kg y⁻¹ and 0.28 × 10³ kg y⁻¹ to 6.97 × 10³ kg y⁻¹, respectively. Seasonal variation results indicated that hurricane events highly increased TIN and ortho-P loading from riverine input and reduced residence time in Newark Bay.
