The removal of nitrogen (N) in aquatic ecosystems is of great interest because excessive
nitrate in groundwater and surface water is a growing problem. High nitrate loading …

Nitrous oxide is a powerful, long‐lived greenhouse gas, but we know little about the role of
estuarine areas in the global N2O budget. This review summarizes 56 studies of N2O fluxes …

We review here the available information on methane (CH 4) and nitrous oxide (N 2 O) from
major marine, mostly coastal, oxygen (O 2)-deficient zones formed both naturally and as a …

Dissimilatory nitrate reduction to ammonium (DNRA), an important intermediate process in
the N-cycle, links N-compound oxidation and reduction processes. Hence, the oxic-anoxic …

Recent reports on the occurrence and contribution of dissimilatory nitrate reduction to
ammonium (DNRA) in marine, inland water, and soil systems have greatly improved our …

Resource limitation controls the base of food webs in many aquatic ecosystems. In coastal
ecosystems, nitrogen (N) has been found to be the predominant limiting factor for primary …

Coastal areas such as continental shelves, estuaries, deltas, fjords and lagoons can release
high amounts of nitrous oxide (N2O) and methane (CH4) to the atmosphere. However …

The influences of suspended mussel and infaunal clam cultivation on benthic metabolism
and nutrient cycling were compared in Goro lagoon, Italy. Both aquaculture types stimulated …

The effects of three metabolic inhibitors (acetylene, methanol, and allylthiourea [ATU]) on the
pathways of N2 production were investigated by using short anoxic incubations of marine …

The term 'nutrient'applies to any material that, taken into a living organism, serves to sustain
it in its existence, promoting growth, replacing losses, or providing energy. In the framework …
