Nitrogen fixation and denitrification activity differ between coral- and algae-dominated Red Sea reefs
Abstract Coral reefs experience phase shifts from coral- to algae-dominated benthic communities, which could affect the interplay between processes introducing and removing bioavailable nitrogen. However, the magnitude of such processes, i.e., dinitrogen (N2) fixation and denitrification levels, and...
