| Research Abstract |
There is a remarkable difference in the density of Nitrate-nitrogen of the mountain stream in the east and west side of Tone River. It is suggested that this phenomena is caused by regional distribution of Nox of the metropolitan area origin. This research simulated leaching to the river of nitrogen by using the nitrogen cycle model of the forest. In this model, the absorbed amount of nitrogen necessary for the tree's growing up is related to the amount of the carbon of the tree. The result of the simulation was almost corresponding to the value of the measurement. However, there were some regions where the observed amount of nitrogen in the soil did not correspond to the observed concentration of nitrogen of the mountain stream. The laboratory experiments were done looking for the reason of this phenomena. The difference of the amount of the denitrification bacterium was checked. However, the correlation between the shape of the distribution of the observed concentration of nitrogen in the soil and the amount of denitrification bacterium was not found. The further investigation is necessary to explain the difference between nitrogen concentration of soil and stream.
