Most annual runoff occurred as overland flow (72-89{\%}), during spring snowmelt and large spring and summer storms. Tile drains did not flow in early spring due to frozen ground. Although tiles flowed in late spring and summer (33-100{\%} of event flow), this represented a small volume of annual runoff (10-25{\%}), which is in stark contrast with what has been observed in other tile-drained landscapes. Median daily flow-weighted mean concentrations of soluble reactive P (SRP) and total P (TP) were significantly greater in overland flow than in tile flow ( {\textless} 0.001), but the reverse pattern was observed for NO-N ( {\textless} 0.001). Overland flow was the primary export pathway for both P and NO-N, accounting for {\textgreater}95{\%} of annual SRP and TP and 50 to 60{\%} of annual NO-N losses. Data suggest that tile drains do not exacerbate P export from Vertisols in the Red River valley because they are decoupled from the surface by soil-ice during snowmelt, which is the primary time for P loss. However, NO-N loading to downstream water bodies may be exacerbated by tiles, particularly during spring and summer storms after fertilizer application.",
