Water table elevation controls on soil nitrogen cycling in riparian wetlands along a European climatic gradient

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of water table fluctuation on the nitrogen cycling in riparian zones under different climatic conditions and N loading at the European scale were compared, and no significant differences in nitrification and denitrification rates were found either between climatic regions or between vegetation types.
Journal ArticleDOI

The role of vegetation and litter in the nitrogen dynamics of riparian buffer zones in Europe

TL;DR: In this paper, the importance of plant uptake and denitrification in litter for N retention in riparian buffers was investigated, showing that annual nitrogen retention in the vegetation and litter compartment is substantial, making up 13-99% of the total N mitigation.

The role of vegetation and litter in the nitrogen dynamics of riparian buffer zones in Europe

TL;DR: In this article, the importance of plant uptake and denitrification in litter for N retention in riparian buffers was investigated, showing that annual nitrogen retention in the vegetation and litter compartment is substantial, making up 13-99% of the total N mitigation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Water table fluctuations in the riparian zone: comparative results from a pan-European experiment

TL;DR: The Nitrogen Control by Landscape Structures in Agricultural Environments project (NICOLAS) as discussed by the authors studied water table levels, hydraulic gradients and flow patterns within the riparian zone.
