The cyanobacterial nitrogen fixation paradox in natural waters

Nitrogen fixation, the enzymatic conversion of atmospheric N (N (2)) to ammonia (NH (3)), is a microbially mediated process by which “new” N is supplied to N-deficient water bodies. Certain bloom-forming cyanobacterial species are capable of conducting N (2 )fixation; hence, they are able to circumv...
