This poster provides a one-page summary of research to quantify actual denitrification in groundwater systems. Measurement of neon, argon and N2(g) identifies:
1. Excess N2(g) from denitrification of nitrates
2. In future, N2(g) can be determined using isotopes to
analyse N origin (air or nitrates)
3. Combined tracer techniques are complimentary

Funded by the New Zealand Ministry for Business, Innovation and Employment's Our Land and Water National Science Challenge (Toitū te Whenua, Toiora te Wai) as part of project Measuring Denitrification
