This study presents the first analysis of N2O isotopes in the East China Sea and investigates N2O production processes in coastal water. The results show that both archaeal nitrification and/or hybrid mechanism and nitrifier denitrification contribute to N2O production. Additionally, far-field lateral advection serves as a potential physical supply of deeper N2O.
Oceans are identified as potent sources of atmospheric nitrous oxide (N2O), while the magnitude of its flux and microbial production mechanisms remain uncertain in highly perturbed coastal zones. Here, the first analyses of N2O isotopocule signatures in the East China Sea (ECS) are presented, along with hydroxylamine (NH2OH) and N2O concentrations, to clarify the dominant N2O production processes in coastal water. In the ECS in October 2015, N2O ranged from 6.3 to 33.1 nmol L (-1), equivalent to 99%-251% saturation, leading to air-sea fluxes of 1.6-10.5 mu mol m(-2) d(-1) (4.8 +/- 2.5 mu mol m(-2) d(-1)) using the W2014 formula. The coexistence of high levels of NH+4, NH2OH, and NO2- indicated the potential for nitrification and/or hybrid N2O formation. In the shallow water (< 300 m), the concentration (similar to 9.3 nmol L (-1)), delta N-15 (bulk)-N2O (similar to 6.8%), delta O-18-N2O (similar to 45.1%), and N-15 site preference (SP, similar to 14.8%) of N2O were close to the isotopic signatures in atmospheric N2O, whereas values in the deep water increased with depth, with N2O reaching maxima of 33.1 nmol L (-1), 8.6%, 54.7%, and 18.7%, respectively. From the dual N2O isotopocule mapping approach, almost equal contributions of archaeal N2O production (archaeal nitrification and/or hybrid mechanism, similar to 47%) and nitrifier denitrification (or denitrification) (similar to 53%) to total in situ N2O production were identified for the shallow water, but archaeal nitrification was responsible for similar to 83% of the deeper N2O production. Moreover, the far-field lateral advection from other areas served as a potential physical supply of deeper N2O. Our findings enhance the understanding of N2O dynamics in coastal waters.
