- Anadromous alewives (Alosa pseudoharengus) contribute marine-derived nutrients to coastal stream food webs (2009, background): “biotic uptake. Data from streams across the United States suggests that uptake rates of inorganic nitrogen are high for small, shallow streams and that low to moderate inputs of inorganic nitrogen can be removed or transformed within minutes to hours ( Peterson et al. 2001 ).”
- Bridging the gap between micro - and macro-scale perspectives on the role of microbial communities in global change ecology (2006, background): “Ecosystem ecologists and biogeochemists have developed numerous models to explain rates of nitrogen transfer in aquatic systems, and the majority of approaches relate nitrification and denitrification rates to environmental conditions such as temperature, dissolved oxygen concentrations, hydrologic ”

- N processing within geomorphic structures in urban streams (2005, background): “The ability of stream ecosystems to convert inorganic N into organic forms or N2 is an important function (Burns 1998, Alexander et al. 2000, Peterson et al. 2001, Wollheim et al. 2001, Bernhardt et al. 2002).”
- Elemental properties, hydrology, and biology interact to shape concentration‐discharge curves for carbon, nutrients, sediment, and major ions (2017, background): “…residence time and the ratio of streambed surface to water volume are high, favoring NO23 uptake by attached and sestonic primary producers, and NO 2 3 removal in riparian and hyporheic zones by denitrifying microorganisms [Peterson et al., 2001; Mulholland et al., 2008; Zarnetske et al., 2012].”
