Zusammenfassung |
A tracer test to examine in situ denitrification in shallow groundwater
by a piezometer with a packer system used bromide as a tracer of dilution and acetylene
(10%) to block the denitrification process at the nitrous oxide stage. During the test,
dissolved oxygen, nitrate (NO3‾), bromide
(Br‾), nitrous oxide (N2O) and dissolved organic carbon (DOC)
were measured. To calibrate the experimental method, comparison with numerical simulations
of the groundwater transfer were carried out, taking into account the environmental
characteristics. The method was tested by measurements undertaken in different environmental
conditions (geology, land use and hydrology) in two riparian wetlands. Denitrification
rates measured by this method ranged from 5.7 10-6 g
N-NO3‾L-1 h-1 to 1.97 10-3 g
N-NO3‾L-1 h-1 The method is applicable
in shallow aquifers with a permeability from 10-2 to 10-4m s-1.
