Tropical stony corals host diverse microbial nitrogen dynamics
… including by cycling physiologically important nitrogen compounds. Nitrogen (N) fixation has been well quantified in corals in accounting for the source of their fixed N, but no complementary loss term had been directly detected. This pathway is important for understanding sources and sinks of …

Soybean nitrogen dynamics: Nitrogen fixation, yield, and residue decomposition
<p>Nitrogen (N) a crucial element for plant growth, often limits net primary productivity of agroecosystems. In agricultural systems it is vital to have proper management of N to secure productivity and environmental sustainability. Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] is the second most important crop …

Nitrogen dynamics and biological response to dairy manure application
… addresses these concerns, but likely changes the dynamics of nutrient cycling. Comparison of the two application methods has yielded mixed results and warrants further research. Therefore, the objectives of this research were to contrast the surface broadcast and subsurface injection of dairy …

Land Cover Influences on Stream Nitrogen Dynamics During Storms
… on the effects of land cover influence on stream nitrogen have focused on base flow conditions or were conducted specifically within urbanized or primarily agricultural watersheds. While these studies have shown relationships between land cover and nitrogen, this relationship and the scale of …

Nitrogen Dynamics of the Acacia Senegal Agroforestry System in the Sudan
… of the ASAS that govern the nutrient dynamics, mainly N, and biomass. The effects of limited resources of soil, space and photoperiod on biomass, nodulation and rate of N fixation were investigated. Genetic differences among populations were studied. Progenies of selected high yielding …

Carbon and Nitrogen Dynamics of a Lagoon Salt Marsh in Davenport, California
… global biogeochemical cycle of carbon (C) and nitrogen (N). Wetlands are critical contributors to global climate change and atmospheric chemistry since they store as much as 33% of the world’s soil organic carbon (SOC), release more than 20% of the atmospheric methane (CH<sub>4</sub>), and …

Nitrogen dynamics after site preparation in three loblolly pine plantations on the Virginia Piedmont
… site preparation practices and their effect on nitrogen cycling have been implicated as possible causes of productivity declines on forest sites in Australia and New Zealand. This study was initiated in order to determine the effects of site preparation intensity upon N distribution and …

Carbon and Nitrogen Dynamics in High Intensity Minimal Exchange Shrimp (<i>Litopenaeus vannamei</i>) Raceways
… 2 density treatments, (2) construct carbon and nitrogen budgets to see where the carbon and nitrogen went in the system for all growouts, (3) determine if plastic media had any effects on water quality parameters and shrimp production, (4) determine if plastic media allowed for a nitrifying …

Interactive effects of fire and grazing on soil and forage nitrogen dynamics in a tallgrass prairie
… ecosystems, yet their combined effects on soil nitrogen (N) dynamics and links to forage quality across heterogeneous landscapes remain incompletely resolved. This thesis examined how fire frequency, grazing, and landscape position interact to regulate N cycling, N retention, and plant–soil …

Using cell size to represent phytoplankton diversity in studies of nitrogen dynamics in the southern Benguela
… and play a central role in the cycling of nitrogen and other elements. Metrics that can adequately represent the biogeochemical processes associated with phytoplankton diversity are needed in order to make use of remote sensing and modeling platforms. A single-value size proxy, effective …

Carbon and nitrogen dynamics on a forest site receiving continual papermill sludge applications: a soil column study
… soil changes associated with carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) cycles within the soil/plant system. The C, N, and hydrologic cycles within a soil/sludge system receiving a year-round, daily application of paper mill sludge were studied. Soil samples were collected from three locations on a land …

Evaluating Crop Physiological and Stand Age-Related Controls Over Soil Carbon and Nitrogen Dynamics In Perennial and Annual Grains
… how the cycling of carbon (C) and fertilizer nitrogen (N) between crop tissues and soil pools is expressed in perennial grains such as intermediate wheatgrass (IWG, Thinopyrum intermedium (Host) Barkworth and Dewey), and whether these processes change within a growing season and across IWG …
