Bivalve shells reflect 15N enrichment in a fertilizer-dominated estuary.
Agricultural nitrogen (N) contributes a dominant percentage to global N pollution in the coastal zone. Emerging research on N isotopes in bivalve shells has shown value for reconstructing historical increases in estuarine wastewater inputs. However, applications for fertilizer N are understudied. Here, we integrate the study of organic N isotopes, in concert with δ18O and δ13C, in estuarine bivalve shells to investigate spatial and long-term changes in nitrogen inputs and sources. Modern, museum-collected, and subfossil specimens of the genera Mytilus and Ostrea were profiled in a California estuary with an intensely agricultural watershed. Spatial patterns in bivalve isotopic composition reflected gradients in watershed nutrient inputs and productivity parameters. Furthermore, a comparison between modern and historical periods revealed changes in nutrient source or processing over the last 1,000 years. The N isotope values from shells offer perspective on agricultural pollution in estuaries.
期刊介绍:
Marine Pollution Bulletin is concerned with the rational use of maritime and marine resources in estuaries, the seas and oceans, as well as with documenting marine pollution and introducing new forms of measurement and analysis. A wide range of topics are discussed as news, comment, reviews and research reports, not only on effluent disposal and pollution control, but also on the management, economic aspects and protection of the marine environment in general.
