| Abstract: | The denitrification potential and density of denitrifying bacteria were determined in suboxidized sediments of Matupi Harbor (Papua New Guinea). The sediments were characterized by low denitrification potentials, not exceeding 0.8 nM/(g h). The maximum density of denitrifying bacteria was recorded in the upper sediment horizons and was 104 cells/g of wet ground. |
