Research Abstract |
We evaluated the human impact on nitrogen cycle in two contrasting estuarine ecosystems (Yodo River-Osaka Bay and Kita River-Obama Bay) by using stable isotopes. In the Yodo river-Osaka Bay system, not only nitrogen loading from the land but also regenerated nitrogen within the estuary and the bay had a large impact on nitrogen dynamics. Although there was little local anthropogenic nitrogen loading in the Kita River, influence of nitrate deposition from atmosphere was observed in both the river and Obama Bay during winter.
