a Upstream (blue) and downstream (red) river surface elevations at the study site from April 7 through October 31, 2018. b The hydraulic gradient across the floodplain from April 7 through October 31, 2018. c River surface elevations from April 21 through October 2, 2019. d The hydraulic gradient across the floodplain from April 21 through October 2, 2019. Dashed black lines indicate dates for which profiles of dissolved oxygen (DO), nitrate (NO3), and ammonium (NH4+) are shown in Fig. 2.
