Dinitrogen fixation in aphotic oxygenated marine environments [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2013 We measured N2 fixation rates from oceanic zones that have traditionally been ignored as sources of biological N2 fixation; the aphotic, fully oxygenated, nitrate (NO3-)-rich, waters of the oligotrophic Levantine Basin (LB) and the Gulf of Aqaba (GA). N2

Tropical carbon sink accelerated by symbiotic dinitrogen fixation [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2019 The contribution of symbiotic dinitrogen fixation to the forest carbon sink could change throughout forest succession. Here the authors model nitrogen cycling and light competition between trees based on data from Panamanian forest plots, showing that ...

Theoretical Assessment of Dinitrogen Fixation on Carbon Atom [PDF]
Chemistry - an Asian Journal, 2021 Abstract Dinitrogen activation in non‐metallic systems has received considerable attention in recent years. Herein, we report the theoretical feasibility of N 2 fixation using aminocarbenes ( L ) or their anionic derivatives.

Contrasting seasonal responses in dinitrogen fixation between shallow and deep-water colonies of the model coral Stylophora pistillata in the northern Red Sea. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Tropical corals are often associated with dinitrogen (N2)-fixing bacteria (diazotrophs), and seasonal changes in key environmental parameters, such as dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) availability and seawater temperature, are known to affect N2 ...

Effects of Water Column Mixing and Stratification on Planktonic Primary Production and Dinitrogen Fixation on a Northern Red Sea Coral Reef [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018 The northern Red Sea experiences strong annual differences in environmental conditions due to its relative high-latitude location for coral reefs. This allows the study of regulatory effects by key environmental parameters (i.e., temperature, inorganic ...

Genetic algorithm-based re-optimization of the Schrock catalyst for dinitrogen fixation [PDF]
PeerJ Physical Chemistry, 2023 This study leverages a graph-based genetic algorithm (GB-GA) for the design of efficient nitrogen-fixing catalysts as alternatives to the Schrock catalyst, with the aim to improve the energetics of key reaction steps. Despite the abundance of nitrogen in

Hydrides mediate nitrogen fixation
Cell Reports Physical Science, 2022 Summary: The fixation of atmospheric dinitrogen to ammonia is crucial for the sustainable growth of human society. The reduction of N2 to NH3 needs the inputs of electrons and hydrogens, which could be supplied by hydridic hydrogens. Hydrides are thus at
