مستخلص: Land use plays a critical role in managing water quality in a watershed, as it governs the import and distribution of nutrients. In addition to the land use, some rivers in Southwest China are encountering a new environmental stressor of damming, which is being driven by the national strategy of hydropower development. However, the coupling effect of land use and dams on nutrients remains poorly understood, challenging the effective management of riverine water quality. Therefore, this study examined the nutrients in the Nu, Yarlung Tsangpo (YT), and Lancang (LC) Rivers, which have no dam, 1 dam, and 11 dams, respectively, during different regulatory periods (spring and fall) to identify variations in nutrient control patterns influenced by land use and dams. The findings suggested that an increase in hydropower development contributed to a notable shift in nutrient patterns from land use regulation towards dam regulation and coupling effects. Land use dominated the nutrient variations of the Nu (27.4 %-32.8 %) and low hydropower development YT (25.2 %-30.9 %) Rivers during both seasons, but the primary contributors to the nutrient variations of the high hydropower development LC River were dams (17.9 %-41.6 %) and coupling effects (16.5 %-29.0 %). Dams transform nutrient levels and compositions through internal reservoir cycling, decoupling land use and nutrients. Partial least-squares structural equation model analysis further suggested that the coupling effects of the LC River were seasonal-specific, which was primarily attributed to hydrological variations that affected their interactions. During spring, the reservoir underwent a drainage mode characterized by high-level nutrients in the bottom water. Combined with the import of riverine nutrients, it exacerbated the increase of nutrients (synergistic effect). In contrast, the reservoir transitioned into a storage mode where it intercepted nutrients from the upstream and watershed during the fall, leading to a reduction in the previously observed increasing trend and an increase in nutrient variability (antagonism effect).
