Implications of long-term land-use change for the hydrology and solute budgets of small catchments in Amazonia

The replacement of undisturbed tropical forest with cattle pasture has the potential to greatly modify the hydrology of small watersheds and the fluxes of solutes. We examined the fluxes of water, Cl −, NO 3 - – N, SO 4 2 - – S, NH 4 + – N , Na +, K +, Mg 2+ and Ca 2+ in different flow paths in ∼1 h...
