Wetlands and streams buffer the interactions among uplands and adjacent aquatic systems.
Phosphorus (P) is often the key nutrient found to be limiting in both estuarine and freshwater …

Dissimilatory sulphate reduction is the unifying and defining trait of sulphate-reducing
prokaryotes (SRP). In their predominant habitats, sulphate-rich marine sediments, SRP have …

Wastewater Microbiology focuses on microbial contaminants found in wastewater, methods
of detection for these contaminants, and methods of cleansing water of microbial …

An Introduction to Organic Geochemistry explores the fate of organic matter of all types,
biogenic and man-made, in the Earth System. investigates the variety of pathways and …

The measurement of lipid phosphate is proposed as an indicator of microbial biomass in
marine and estuarine sediments. This relatively simple assay can be performed on fresh …

It would not have been possible for me to write the three editions of this book without a
double dose of extraordinary fortune: to have been part of the Woods Hole scientific …

The median C: N: P atomic ratio of benthic marine macroalgae and seagrasses is about 550:
30: 1. Benthic plants are much more depleted in P and less in N, relative to C, than …

Benthic O2 availability regulates many important biogeochemical processes and has crucial
implications for the biology and ecology of benthic communities. Further, the benthic O2 …

It is generally considered that nitrogen availability is one of the major factors regulating
primary production in temperate coastal marine environments. Coastal regions often receive …

The cyclic transformations of inorganic sulfur compounds in the sediments of a Danish fjord
were followed for 2 years. The in situ rate of sulfate reduction measured with a radiotracer …
