“…In small, shallow rivers nitrification is mainly a benthic process (Curtis et al, 1975;Cooper, 1984;Pauer and Auer, 2000): very few nitrifying organisms are present in the water column because of their low growth rate and their propensity to attach to particles and to settle with them (Prosser, 1989;. In turbid estuaries, by contrast, tidal mechanisms concentrate particles in a defined sector of the estuary where suspended solids experience a longer residence time than the water masses themselves, offering the attached nitrifying organisms the opportunity to develop a high biomass (Xia et al, 2004).…”

“…Nitrification is a major pathway in the overall nitrogen cycle [6]. It consists of oxidation of ammonia (NH 3 ) to nitrite (NO 2 À ) and then to nitrate (NO 3 À ).…”

“…Diese Modelle beruhen auf empirischen Erkenntnissen und berOcksichtigen die kausalen Zusammenh~tnge der Nitrifikation zu wenig (Beispiele: [10,11] Aus der Erfahrung mit TropfkOrpern, die in der Abwasserreinigungspraxis speziell for die Nitrifikation yon Abwasser verwendet werden, kann die Nitrif'tkationsleistung einer bewachsenen Oberflache abgesch~itzt werden [13]. [ 14].…”
