Diversity and relative abundance of ammonia- and nitrite-oxidizing microorganisms in the offshore Namibian hypoxic zone
Nitrification, the microbial oxidation of ammonia (NH(3)) to nitrite (NO(2)(–)) and NO(2)(–) to nitrate (NO(3)(–)), plays a vital role in ocean nitrogen cycling. Characterizing the distribution of nitrifying organisms over environmental gradients can help predict how nitrogen availability may change...
