Significant seasonal differences for both the agricultural and forested streams included DO, temperature, pH, and TSS. DO was significantly low in the summer for both the agricultural (7.38 mg/L) and forested streams (8.5 mg/L). TSS levels for the agricultural streams were significantly greater (\(p\) < 0.0011) in the spring (53.66 mg/L) and summer (49.04 mg/L) than in the fall (33.28 mg/L), while TSS levels in the forested streams were significantly greater only in the spring (49.54 mg/L) than the summer (35.62 mg/L) and fall (29.30 mg/L). Letters 'A', 'B' and 'C' represent groupings that are not significantly different from each other according to [PERSON]'s LSD test. Several water quality parameters were significantly (\(p\) < 0.05) correlated within the agricultural and forested streams (Table 4). However, only a few water quality parameters were moderately to strongly correlated. In the agricultural streams, those parameters consisted of stream flow and TSS discharge (r = 0.85), temperature and DO (r = 0.70), TSS and TSS discharge (r = 0.62), and pH and DO (r = 0.58). forested streams' moderately to strongly correlated parameters were stream flow and TSS discharge (r = 0.93), TSS and TSS discharge (r = 0.62), TSS and stream flow (r = 0.56), and pH and DO (r = 0.56). \begin{table}
