Biological nitrogen fixation is performed by “diazotrophs,” which convert dinitrogen gas (N2) to ammonia (NH3) using the nitrogenase enzyme. Determining the distribution of N2-fixing (diazotrophic) mi...

Glad to share our paper revealing that inland and coastal waters, while covering <10% of Earth’s surface, contribute ~20% of global nitrogen fixation! www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... @noc.ac.uk @ird-fr.bsky.social @mioceanologie.bsky.social
Global importance of nitrogen fixation across inland and coastal waters
Biological nitrogen fixation is a key driver of global primary production and climate. Decades of effort have repeatedly updated nitrogen fixation estimates for terrestrial and open ocean systems, yet...

Particle-associated N2 fixation by heterotrophic bacteria in the global ocean
Heterotrophic bacteria fix N2 in more diverse environments than previously thought, critical for the oceanic nitrogen cycle.
