Estimation of sediment denitrification rates at in situ nitrate concentrations.
The denitrification rates in a marine sediment, estimated by using N-nitrate, V(max), K(m), and sediment nitrate concentrations, were 12.5 and 2.0 nmol of N(2)-N cm day at 0 to 1 and 1 to 3 cm, respectively, at 12 degrees C. The total rate was 165 nmol of N(2)-N m day.
