Comparison of Denitrification Induced by Various Organic Substances—Reaction Rates, Microbiology, and Temperature Effect
(Water Resources Research, 2021-11-18)Widespread groundwater pollution with nitrate (NO3−) and the finite and decreasing geogenic NO3− degradation capacity in aquifers require a better understanding of potential treatment methods. This project aimed at exploring ... -
Denitrification‐Driven Transcription and Enzyme Production at the River‐Groundwater Interface: Insights From Reactive‐Transport Modeling
(Water Resources Research, 2022-08-26)Molecular‐biological data and omics tools have increasingly been used to characterize microorganisms responsible for the turnover of reactive compounds in the environment, such as reactive‐nitrogen species in groundwater. ... -
How Important is Denitrification in Riparian Zones? Combining End-Member Mixing and Isotope Modeling to Quantify Nitrate Removal from Riparian Groundwater
(Water Resources Research, 2020)Riparian zones are important buffer zones for streams as they are hotspots of nitrate transformation and removal in agricultural catchments. However, mixing of water from different sources and various transformation processes ... -
Ice Age‐Holocene Similarity of Foraminifera‐Bound Nitrogen Isotope Ratios in the Eastern Equatorial Pacific
(Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, 2021-05-19)Bulk sediment δ15N records from the eastern tropical Pacific (ETP) extending back to the last ice age most often show low glacial δ15N, then a deglacial δ15N maximum, followed by a gradual decline to a late Holocene δ15N ... -
Monte Carlo Simulations as a Decision Support to Interpret δ15N Values of Nitrate in Groundwater
(Groundwater, 2019)Intense farming is often associated with the excessive use of manure or fertilizers and the subsequent deterioration of the groundwater quality in many aquifers worldwide. Stable isotopes of dissolved nitrate (δ15N and ... -
The potential of ryegrass as cover crop to reduce soil N2O emissions and increase the population size of denitrifying bacteria
(European Journal of Soil Science, 2020-11-05)Nitrogen (N) fertilization is the major contributor to nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from agricultural soil, especially in post‐harvest seasons. This study was carried out to investigate whether ryegrass serving as cover ... -
Vortex-Wide Detection of Large Aspherical NAT Particles in the Arctic Winter 2011/12 Stratosphere
(Geophysical Research Letters, 2019)Micron-sized HNO3-containing particles in polar stratospheric clouds are known to denitrify the polar winter stratosphere and support chemical ozone loss. We show that populations of nitric acid trihydrate (NAT) particles ...
