Abstract:The flux of dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN), predominantly nitrate (NO3−) and ammonium (NH4+), from land to coastal waters via rivers is commonly estimated by a simple calculation multiplying water flux by nitrogen concentration. Often, the subsequent interactions involving NO3− and NH4+ adsorption or desorption on suspended sediments are overlooked. To better understand the impact of these interactions on the overall NO3− and NH4+ sorption or desorption and, consequently, the mobility and transport to the … Show more
