Along the Amazon River Plume, sediments potentially act as both a source and sink of DIN. While denitrification appears to be a significant loss process in sediment, nitrification dominates in the water column. This study's findings draw an N-budget of the Amazon estuary based on rates of N cycle pathways, providing baseline knowledge for environmental management and conservation efforts amidst climate change and human-induced alterations to the N cycle. %L 540 %9 theses %9 Text %9 Hochschulschrift %R 10.18453/rosdok_id00005020 %U https://purl.uni-rostock.de/rosdok/id00005020 %U https://nbn-resolving.org/urn:nbn:de:gbv:28-rosdok_id00005020-3 %U https://d-nb.info/1383791171/34 %U https://doi.org/10.18453/rosdok_id00005020
