Denitrification in sediments as a major nitrogen sink in the Baltic Sea: an extrapolation using sediment characteristics

Rates of denitrification in sediments were measured with the isotope pairing technique at different sites in the southern and central Baltic Sea. The rates varied between 0.5 μmol N m<sup>−2</sup> h<sup>−1</sup> in sands and 28.7 μmol N m&l...
