| The nitrogen isotopic composition of organic matter contained within diatom frustules of different sediment size fractions from the Guaymas Basin, Gulf of California, suggests that multiple nutrient cycling processes can be examined from a single sediment sample. The diatom-bound delta(15)N values from the greater and less than 63 mu m size fractions were analyzed from six intervals of core MD02-2517, each representing similar to 30-40 years. The diatom-bound delta(15)N values are compared to bulk sedimentary delta(15)N values, weight percent biogenic opal, and weight percent organic carbon. Bulk sedimentary delta(15)N values range from 10 parts per thousand to 12.5 parts per thousand and diatom-bound delta(15)N values of the <63 mu m size fraction from... |

| Although nitrogen stable isotope ratio (delta N-15) in macroalgae is widely used as a bioindicator of anthropogenic nitrogen inputs to the coastal zone, recent studies suggest the possible role of macroalgae metabolism in delta N-15 variability. Simultaneous determinations of delta N-15 of dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) along the land sea continuum, inter-species variability of delta N-15 and its sensitivity to environmental factors are necessary to confirm the efficiency of macroalgae delta N-15 in monitoring nitrogen origin in mixed-use watersheds. In this study, delta N-15 of annual and perennial macroalgae (Ulva sp., Enterommpha sp., Fucus vesiculosus and Fucus serratus) are compared to delta N-15-DIN along the Charente Estuary, after... |
