The stoichiometry of inorganic carbon and nutrient removal in the Mississippi River plume and adjacent continental shelf

The stoichiometry of dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) and nutrients during biological uptake is widely assumed to follow the Redfield ratios (especially the C / N ratio) in large river plume ecosystems. However, this assumption has not been systematically examined and documented, because DIC and nut...
