The Patuxent River is a tributary of the Chesapeake Bay in the state of Maryland.

The Patuxent River Basin is the largest watershed located entirely within Maryland, and has land-use characteristics typical of the metropolitan areas in the Mid-Atlantic States.
Base-flow nitrate concentrations are significantly higher in the Piedmont than in the Coastal Plain section of the Patuxent River Basin (Preston, 1996), although land use, which is related to sources of nitrate, is similar in the sampled subbasins in both sections.
These differences may be explained in part by the hypothesis that certain geologic units in the Coastal Plain of the Patuxent River Basin have geochemical properties that may reduce nitrate concentrations in ground water.
