Abstract

April showers bring May flowers. Well, not always. The climate of the Chesapeake Bay area, as elsewhere, varies from year to year as anyone living in the watershed the last few years can attest.

That variability, though, is more than just a conversation ice-breaker. Fluctuations in seasonal rainfall affect river flows into the Bay and can hinder nutrient reduction efforts aimed at restoring the Chesapeake ecosystem because nutrient flows into the Bay are closely tied to river discharge.
