description abstract | Ammonium and nitrate were used as nitrogen sources to support microbial biodegradation of crude oil in continuous-flow beach microcosms to determine whether either nutrient was more effective in open systems, such as intertidal shorelines. No differences in the rate or extent of oil biodegradation were observed, regardless of whether these nutrients were provided continuously or intermittently. Nutrients were provided once every two weeks to intermittent-input microcosms and washed out within four to five days. In continuous-input microcosms, ammonium and nitrate were assimilated as quickly as they were provided during the first week, but both accumulated to greater than | |
