Field and laboratory investigations of the adsorption of nitrogen compounds on estuarine based sediments

Nitrogen plays a major role in the metabolism of aquatic eco-systems. However, at low concentrations it can affect primary productivity and rise to very high concentrations, leading to eutrophication problems. Nitrogen compound fluxes in the aquatic environment are in the form of nitrate, ammonium o...
