Abstract

The fractionation of the nitrogen isotopes 14 N and 15 N in the denitrification process has been studied in laboratory experiments for the step NO 2 − → N 2 O. This study has been carried out on natural soils under anaerobic conditions (helium atmosphere). Reduction of N 2 O is blocked by introducti...
