Notes | "In Alsea Bay, during the summer of 1979, rapid changes took place with respect to the aquatic nitrogen chemistry. The temporal variations in nitrate, nitrite and nitrous oxide concentrations in the estuary appear to reflect three point mixing between river water, coastal surface seawater and upwelling water." This work "suggests that natural freshwater systems can serve as sources of nitrous oxide to the atmosphere and receiving estuaries on at least a seasonal basis." (p.30) Major professor was Louis I. Gordon. |
