BIOGEOCHEMICAL NITROGEN TRANSFORMATIONS UNDER CONTRASTING MIXING REGIMES IN TWO COASTAL WATER COLUMNS
(2022-05-12)The biogeochemical cycling of nitrogen (N) in coastal water columns is of high importance due to anthropogenic N input and its role in fueling primary production and eutrophication. Using highly resolved field observations ... -
BULK AND COMPOUND-SPECIFIC NITROGEN ISOTOPE BIOGEOCHEMISTRY OF PARTICULATE ORGANIC MATERIAL IN WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANTS
(2023-12-15)Sewage wastewater is a significant global contributor to the degradation of coastal ecosystems globally. While stable isotope analysis (15N) has been used since the 1970s to track sewage pollution in the marine environment, ... -
Source or Sink? A modeling study of inorganic carbon cycling on the Scotian Shelf
(2021-12-08)The Scotian Shelf, located in the highly dynamic northwestern North Atlantic along the eastern Canadian seaboard, has been the focus of much debate as previous studies have yielded conflicting estimates of air-sea CO2 flux ... -
THE USE OF RADIUM ISOTOPES TO INVESTIGATE BOUNDARY EXCHANGES IN COASTAL OCEAN SYSTEMS
(2015-04-07)Coastal seas are of major economic and social importance for the majority of the human population, and are amongst the most biologically and geochemically active areas of the biosphere. Coastal systems are also highly ...
