In this study, the seasonal variations of discharge and concentrations of soluble nitrite, nitrate, ammonium, orthophosphate and potassium and also the concentrations of these substances during baseflow and rainfall runoff in the seasonal and perennial rivers entering the Zarivar Lake were investigated. The results showed a great variation of discharge in the spring than the other months because of frequent rainfalls and the maximum discharge in this season. Despite the differences of the stream lake behavior and also the different nature of nutrients, generally, nutrients concentrations have different seasonally significant so that the maximum concentrations and the maximum concentration variations of soluble nitrite, nitrate, orthophosphate and ammonium were seen in summer. The results of the inter and intra storm variability analysis of nutrient concentrations indicated a significant differences between nitrite and nitrate during and between storm events with sig=0 and sig
