Journal ArticleDOI

Chemical conversion of nitrate and nitrite to nitrous oxide for nitrogen and oxygen isotopic analysis in freshwater and seawater.

TL;DR: The basic protocol and reaction conditions required to obtain reproducible natural abundance level nitrogen and oxygen isotopic ratios from nitrate, nitrite, or both are described and the results obtained to support these conclusions are described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Isotopic Signature of N2O Produced by Marine Ammonia-Oxidizing Archaea

TL;DR: Natural-abundance stable isotope measurements indicate that the produced N2O had bulk δ15N and δ18O values higher than observed for ammonia-oxidizing bacteria but similar to the values attributed to the oceanic N 2O source to the atmosphere.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genomic and proteomic characterization of "Candidatus Nitrosopelagicus brevis": an ammonia-oxidizing archaeon from the open ocean

TL;DR: A closed genome assembled from a highly enriched culture of the ammonia-oxidizing pelagic thaumarchaeon CN25, originating from the open ocean, exhibits strong evidence of genome streamlining, including a 1.23-Mbp genome, a high coding density, and a low number of paralogous genes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Oxygen isotopes in nitrite: analysis, calibration, and equilibration.

TL;DR: The results enable the extension of the denitrifier method to oxygen isotopic analysis of nitrite (in the absence of nitrate) and correction of Nitrate isotopes for the presence of Nitrite in "mixed" samples.
Journal ArticleDOI

Technical updates to the bacterial method for nitrate isotopic analyses.

TL;DR: Contin development of the denitrifier method has led to increased precision and throughput of NO(3)(-) isotopic analysis, and several recent procedural modifications and the demonstration of their effectiveness are presented.
