Uptake of dissolved nitrogen (NH 4 + + NO 3 - + urea + N 2 ) by a cyanobacterial [ Anabaena flos-aquae (Lyngb.)] De Brèb population in Smith Lake, Alaska, was measured every 2 to 4 days during the spring of 1990. Total dissolved nitrogen uptake ranged from 0.34 to 24.75 μmol liter -1 h -1 , with a m...
