    Notes: Abstract Nitrogen mass balances for seven unproductive lakes and 20 forested catchments in central Ontario were measured between 1977 and 1989. Average annual lake denitrification rates calculated with the N/P ratio method were strongly correlated with summer anoxic factor (extent of surficial sediment anoxia) whereas denitrification rates calculated with a210Pb sediment N accumulation method were poorly correlated with the anoxic factor suggesting that the N/P method is superior. Substantial denitrification occurred in all lakes — an average of 36% of TN inputs or 75% of the net gain. On a regional area-weighted basis, 67% of bulk atmospheric TN deposition was stored or denitrified terrestrially, 12% was denitrified in lakes, 4% was stored in lake sediments, and 17% was exported from lakes. N/P ratios were generally less in streams than in precipitation suggesting preferential N retention in catchments, whereas the N/P ratios in lake outputs were slightly higher than lake input ratios, suggesting preferential P retention in lakes. This is consistent with the notion that P-limited lakes can exist adjacent to N-limited forests.

    Metabolic diversity of aromatic hydrocarbon-degrading bacteria from a petroleum-contaminated aquifer (1993)

    Notes: Abstract We characterized bacteria from contaminated aquifers for their ability to utilize aromatic hydrocarbons under hypoxic (oxygen-limiting) conditions (initial dissolved oxygen concentration about 2 mg/l) with nitrate as an alternate electron acceptor. This is relevant to current intense efforts to establish favorable conditions forin situ bioremediation. Using samples of granular activated carbon slurries from an operating groundwater treatment system, we isolated bacteria that are able to use benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, orp-xylene as their sole source of carbon under aerobic or hypoxic-denitrifying conditions. Direct isolation on solid medium incubated aerobically or hypoxically with the substrate supplied as vapor yielded 103 to 105 bacteria ml−1 of slurry supernatant, with numbers varying little with respect to isolation substrate or conditions. More than sixty bacterial isolates that varied in colony morphology were purified and characterized according to substrate utilization profiles and growth condition (i.e., aerobic vs. hypoxic) specificity. Strains with distinct characteristics were obtained using benzene compared with those isolated on toluene or ethylbenzene. In general, isolates obtained from direct selection on benzene minimal medium grew well under aerobic conditions but poorly under hypoxic conditions, whereas many ethylbenzene isolates grew well under both incubation conditions. We conclude that the conditions of isolation, rather than the substrate used, will influence the apparent characteristic substrate utilization range of the isolates obtained. Also, using an enrichment culture technique, we isolated a strain ofPseudomonas fluorescens, designated CFS215, which exhibited nitrate dependent degradation of aromatic hydrocarbons under hypoxic conditions.

    Interannual patterns of water table height and groundwater derived nitrate in nearshore sediments (1990)

    Notes: Abstract Nitrate concentration and microbial nitrogen transformations in ground-water-affected sediments of Great South Bay, NY were examined over several annual cycles. Nitrate concentrations are typically higher at 40 cm depth than at the surface, while salinity generally decreases with depth. Denitrification occurs through the sediment core and is organic substrate limited at depth while being nitrate limited near the sediment-water interface. Denitrification accounts for about 50% of the biological NO3 - decrease between 40 and 15 cm depth interval. Higher than average annual rainfall during 1983 and 1984 was reflected in an elevated water table as well as lower Bay salinities. Conversely, extremely low rainfall occurred in 1985 and 1986, and the water table reached an extreme low in Sep. 1986. Interestingly, the amounts of nitrate in the sediment column of our primary station varied directly with water table height and, presumably, the discharge rate of nitrate enriched groundwater. We suggest that this may be a result of the more efficient removal of advected nitrate by denitrification during low flow conditions.

    Isolation and growth of a bacterium able to degrade nitrilotriacetic acid under denitrifying conditions (1990)

    Notes: Abstract A Gram-negative bacterium was isolated from river sediment which was able to grow with nitrilotriacetic acid as a combined carbon, nitrogen and energy source in the absence of molecular oxygen using nitrate as the terminal electron acceptor. Batch growth parameters and mass balances are reported for growth under both aerobic and denitrifying conditions. The strain was characterized with respect to its substrate spectrum and other physiological properties. This denitrifying isolate is serologically unrelated to the comprehensively described Gram-negative obligately aerobic NTA-degrading bacteria all of which belong to the α-subclass of Proteobacteria. Chemotaxonomic characterization, which revealed the presence of spermidine as the main polyamine and ubiquinone Q-8, excludes the new isolate from the phylogenetically redefined genus Pseudomonas and indicates a possible location within the γ-subclass of Proteobacteria close to, but separate from the genus Xanthomonas.

    Enzymes involved in anaerobic degradation of acetone by a denitrifying bacterium (1990)

    Notes: Abstract The pathway of anaerobic acetone degradation by the denitrifying bacterial strain BunN was studied by enzyme measurements in extracts of anaerobic acetone-grown cells. An ADP- and MgCl2-dependent decarboxylation of acetoacetate was detected which could not be found in cell-free extracts of acetate-grown cells. It is concluded that free acetoacetate is formed by ATP-dependent carboxylation of acetone. Acetoacetate was converted into its coenzyme A ester by succinyl-CoA: acetoacetate CoA transferase, and cleaved by a thiolase into acetyl-CoA. The acetyl residue was completely oxidized in the citric acid cycle. The ADP-dependent decarboxylation of acetoacetate was inhibited by EDTA, but not by avidin. High myokinase activities led to equilibrium amounts of ATP, ADP, and AMP in the reaction mixtures, and prevented determination of the decarboxylase reaction stoichiometry, therefore.
