Description:We describe a cost-effective methodology for obtaining loadings for the environmentally significant chemical species of silicate, nitrate, nitrite, ammonium, and orthophosphate through the Hillsboro and Boca Raton inlets (Florida, USA). Field measurements included 'grab' water samples obtained from each inlet during an 18-month period and four ebb tide sampling intensives conducted at both inlets. During sampling intensives, water currents were measured from a small boat using a downward-looking acoustic Doppler current profiler, and water samples were collected for analysis. Loadings were computed from the sampling intensives data and estimated for the entire period using flow estimates generated from tidal range data. These data are presented as monthly loadings from each inlet. [doi:10.7289/V51G0J8F (http://dx.doi.org/10.7289/V51G0J8F)]
