Denitrification Associated with Periphyton Communities [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1981 Scrapings of decomposing Cladophora sp. mats (periphyton) covering stream bed rocks produced N 2 O when incubated under N 2 plus 15% C 2 H 2 . Denitrification (N 2 O formation) was enhanced by NO
