Abstract

Sediment with different densities of Corophium volutator (Pallas), ranging from 0 to 19 800 ind.m-', were incubated in laboratory microcosms, and rates of oxygen uptake, denitnfication and nitrate ammonification were determined from sediment-water fluxes.The measured processes were stimulated differently by C. volutator; oxygen uptake, denitrification of NO, from nitnfication within the sediment, and denitrification of NOT from the overlying water were enhanced 2-, 3-and 5-fold respectively in the presence of 19 800 ind.m-?.This differential stimulation was explained by the different characteristics of diffusional solute transport at the sediment-water interface and mass transfer of water into the burrows where O 2 and NO? was depleted.Denitrification rates were calculated by using the lSN isotope pairing technique.The applicability of the ' 5 ~ isotope pairing technique for measunng coupled nitrification-denitrification in bioturbated sedlment was confirmed in a test incubation with different levels of 1 5 ~0 < added to microcosms with 12 000 C. volutatorind.m-'

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
