Discharge, Groundwater Gradients, and Streambed Micro-Topography Control the Temporal Dynamics of Transient Storage in a Headwater Reach.

The fraction of median travel time due to transient storage shows a decreasing and an increasing trend with increasing discharge, for values respectively below and above 5 liters/s (Figure 8 e, f) When the discharge is comprised between 0 and 5 liters/s, F MED decreases significantly with discharge ( Rs = −0.684, p‐value < 0.01) following a linear ( R 2 = 0.776, p‐value < 0.01) or a power law (0.851, p‐value < 0.01) decrease.
