英文摘要The nitrogen isotopic composition of dissolved nitrate (delta(15)N-NO(3)(-)) in surface water of the Yangtze River estuary was determined in four seasons of 2006. delta(15)N-NO(3)(-) ranged from 0.4 parts per thousand to 6.5 parts per thousand and varied with seasons and geographic regions, reflecting the dynamics of nitrogen cycling in the estuarine ecosystem. delta(15)N-NO(3)(-) was markedly lower in February than in other seasons and exhibited conservative mixing, which was probably attributed to the NO(3)(-) being sourced from the atmospheric deposition and agricultural fertilizer. In the upper estuary, the influence of riverine inputs was important during all surveys. in the turbidity maximum zone, nitrification was found with nitrate depleted in (15)N in May, whereas denitrification resulting in heavy delta(15)N-NO(3)(-) played an important role in August. More enriched delta(15)N-NO(3)(-) values coinciding with losses of nitrate concentrations based on the conservative mixing model were found in the adjacent marine area in May, and may reflect obvious phytoplankton assimilation of dissolved nitrate. In this manner, delta(15)N-NO(3)(-) may be a sensitive indicator of nitrogen sources and biogeochemical processing existing in this estuary in conjunction with the variations of dissolved nitrate and other environmental factors.
