New paper about how forests lose nitrogen through shallow groundwater flowpaths

November 5, 2014 / Lab news, Research paper / By

In a paper published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, McGuire working with a team from the Hubbard Brook Ecosystem Study found clear evidence of nitrogen loss through denitrification in isolated shallow groundwater patches in a small watershed. The findings were somewhat of a surprise because denitrification has been so difficult to …
