N1 - Benthic deposition of carbon (C) and nitrogen (N)-rich oyster biodeposits may increase denitrification, or anaerobic respiration of nitrate (NO 3 −) to di-nitrogen gas (N 2). However, environmental drivers of C and N dynamics in oyster biodeposits and reef-adjacent sediments require clarification.
