Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Characteristics of nitrous oxide in rivers such as concentrations, emission ratio of nitrate, and N2O production potential in the river bed were investigated. The N2O concentration increased in early summer based on the long-term survey. Alternatively, the daily variation was observed only in the river that receives nitrogen load, however the pattern was not consistent. Based on the profiles of δ15N and δ18O in nitrate, dissolved N2O concentration increases when the nitrogen compounds inflows to the river. The gene profiles of sediments and N2O concentration was not clear. The N2O production potential was found to be different depending on the nitrogen load qualities. Specifially, the N2O production potential with nitrification in the river bed was high in the rivers that receives ammonium nitrogen.
