N1 - Seagrass meadows are important sites of nitrogen (N) transformations in estuaries, however, the role of N loading in driving relative rates of N fixation and denitrification in seagrass habitats is unclear. The current study quantified N fluxes in eelgrass meadows ( Zostera marina (L.)) and nearby unvegetated sand in trials representing in situ and N enriched conditions.
