Exploring the hydrology and biogeochemistry of the dam-impacted Kafue River and Kafue Flats (Zambia)

► We model river–floodplain exchange. ► We examine its influence on river chemistry. ► Wet season ∼75% of water in the river channel spent some time in the floodplain. ► Net source of phosphate (220t/year), TN (1300tN/year) and TOC (50,000tC/year). Wetland processes are strongly influenced by hydrol...
