Abstract：
Where, when, and to what extent a land use or land management change affects freshwater quality depends on the physical and biogeochemical characteristics of the pathways of water flow that link the land (source) and a freshwater body (receptor).The flow and transport pathways vary at a range of spatial and temporal scales in their propensity to yield, convey and attenuate contaminants in a catchment.
The objective of this study was to characterise watersheds according to the major flow pathways: overland flow, shallow sub-surface flow, a mix of overland and shallow subsurface flows, or deep ground water flow.
