Nutrient regeneration and oxygen consumption by sediments along an estuarine salinity gradient
WR Boynton,WM Kemp +1 more
TL;DR: Seasonal shifts in sediment 0:N flux ratios suggest that denitrification may have been important in spring but not summer, and sediment regeneration of NH: was capable of supplying 13 to 40 % of calculated phytoplankton N requirement, being more important during the summer period of higher productivity.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluate some of the assumptions and uncertainties that are still embedded in the technique and provide guidelines on how to estimate reliable metabolic rates from high-frequency sonde data.

Factors controlling net ecosystem metabolism in U.S. estuaries
TL;DR: In this article, high frequency dissolved oxygen data were analyzed to calculate primary production, respiration and net ecosystem metabolism (NEM) from 42 sites within 22 National Estuarine Research Reserves (NERR), 1995-2000.

The metabolism of aquatic ecosystems: history, applications, and future challenges
TL;DR: It is argued that measurements of ecosystem metabolism should be a vital component of routine monitoring at larger scales in the aquatic environment using existing flexible, precise, and durable sensor technologies.

Primary Production in Flowing Waters1
TL;DR: The ratio of total primary production to total community respiration is used to classify communities quantitatively according to their predominantly heterotrophic or autotrophic characteristics, and for diverse types of communities.

Photo-electric Measurements of Submarine Illumination throughout the Year
TL;DR: In this paper, the penetration of daylight into sea-water in the English Channel was measured using one vacuum and two gas-filled potassium photo-electric cells below water and the conclusions put forward tentatively in 1928 were substantiated in the main, although the vacuum photometer, which is relatively more sensitive to the blue end of the spectrum, generally indicated rather higher opacities.
