Influence of environmental factors on nitrate utilization and nitrogen isotope fractionation by marine phytoplankton
Nitrate utilization by marine phytoplankton is an important component of the marine nitrogen cycle. The ¹⁵N / ¹⁴N ratio that is created during nitrate assimilation can be propagated throughout marine food webs, throughout nitrogen pools in the water column, and recorded in the organic fraction of...
