A sesonl smpling progrm nd controlled experiments were conducted; nitrifiction nd denitrifiction rtes were mesured in slurries using the difluoromethne nd the cetylene inhiition techniques, respectively. Slinity did not show ny regultory control of denitrifiction for either environment, suggesting oth denitrifier communities contined dominntly euryhline cteri. However, cler stimultion of nitrifiction ctivity ws oserved when slinity incresed from to 1 psu (% nd %, for sediments nd rocky iofilms, respectively). Nitrte vilility clerly stimulted denitrifiction rtes in sndy sediments, wheres in rocky iofilms no regultory effect ws evident. N O:N rtio incresed rpidly with NO enrichment (% to 19% nd 1% to %, for sediments nd rocky iofilms, respectively). Ammonium enrichment experiments in sndy sediments showed stimultion of nitrifiction ctivity y % for the M of NH + tretment nd cler inhiitory effect when mended with M of NH +. Contrry, rocky iofilms nitrifiction ws stimulted in % when M of NH + ws dded. These results indicte tht slinity nd inorgnic nitrogen increses in the Douro estury could lter nitrifiction rtes nd lso denitrifiction rtes with consequent N O ccumultion. Keywords: Nitrogen Effects, Nitrifiction, Denitrifiction, Rocky Biofilms, Slinity Effects, Sndy Sediments. Introduction The progressive increse of nitrogen loding nd reduction of freshwter dischrge into esturine systems represent worldwide prolems (Jickells, 1998; De Jonge et l., ; Montgn et l., ). In the Douro River estury, the concentrtions of NO inputs from freshwter incresed drmticlly during the 199 s (INAG, ) nd dditionl nutrients will e dded once severl tretment plnts whith miniml nutrient removl egin opertion. On the other hnd, due to wter diversion for griculture within the wtershed nd climte chnge, the estury is fcing progressive decrese in freshwter input, which could consequently chnge slinity regimes. Benthic microil ctivity provides key role for nitrogen trnsformtions within the estury. Under oxic conditions, nitrifying cteri convert mmonium to NO nd susequently to NO. In the noxic zones, denitrifying cteri use NO or NO s electron cceptors, converting them into gseous (N or N O) forms. Both of these processes re considered importnt in reducing the lndderived N loding to costl wters (Jensen et l., 199, Seitzinger, ). Becuse enthic nitrifiction nd denitrifiction influence the fte of inorgnic nitrogen inputs into n estury, understnding of the environmentl fctors tht control those processes re of gret ecologicl importnce. Mny reltionships hve een oserved etween slinity nd inorgnic nitrogen vritions with sediment key nitrogen cycle processes (e.g. Ogilvie et l., 1997, Rysgrd et l., 1999), ut often, it is difficult to relte the oserved reltionships to single prmeter, since mny prmeters together exhiit vrition throughout n estury. In the present study sesonl smpling progrm nd controlled experiments were performed, in order to understnd the effect of the possile slinities chnges nd the inorgnic nitrogen increse (NO nd NH + ) on the nitrifiction nd denitrifiction within intertidl sndy sediments nd rocky iofilms of the Douro River estury. METHODS Study re nd smpling The Douro River wtershed drin 17% of the Ierin Peninsul (Fig. 1). This drowned grnitic vlley estury is confined 1 km from the mouth y hydroelectric power dm. The estury verges 8 m in depth, hs semidiurnl tidl rnge of m, tempertures etween 8 C, slinities from to psu nd residence time etween. nd 1. dys (Vieir & Bordlo, ). Freshwter input into the estury during the postdm period (198) hs een reduced to ± m s 1 from ± m s 1 etween The estury wter column on verge contins µm NH +, µm NO nd 1 µm NO. Nitrte concentrtion in Crestum dm hs drmticlly incresed during the lst ten yers (Fig. ). In ddition, lrgely untreted sewge from pproximtely one million inhitnts is dischrged within its lower rech. This study ws conducted in two different intertidl environments within the lower estury (Fig. 1), intertidl rocky iofilms (Enteromorph sp. colonizing zones), nd intertidl sndy sediments. Both sites hve een chrcterized, in previous studies, in terms of totl orgnic mtter nd Chlorophyll concentrtions nd in the cse of sndy sediments lso in terms of mcrofun, microphythoenthos nd prticle size distriution, (Mglhães et l.,, Mglhães et l.,, Mglhães et l., ). 7

Sediment cores (1 cores, cm dimeter nd 1 cm depth) nd rocky iofilms (out 1 ml, removed y scrping the rocks) nd respective wter column t the vicinity of ech sit e were collected lwys t low tide. Enrichment experiments were performing in dditionl rocky iofilms nd sediment collected during August ; esturine rckish wter nd freshwter from the Douro River were lso collected for nitrogen enrichments nd for slinity vrition experiments, respectively.

A time zero nd time one 11 ml of overlying wter smples were collected efore nd fter the incution period. These smples were centrifuged,. µm filtered nd kept frozen ( ºC) for lter NH + nd NO +NO nlysis. In order to study slinity nd nitrogen regultory effects on nitrifiction nd denitrifiction independently, dditionl experiments were performed during August t ech site. Different concentrtions of NO (, 1 nd µm using stndrd solution of KNO ) nd NH + (,, µm using stndrd solution of (NH ) SO ) where dded to the collected esturine wter ( µm NO, µm NH nd 1 psu), nd denitrifiction nd nitrifiction mesured in triplicte, s descried ove, for ech different nitrte nd mmonium tretment, respectively. The slinity effects were evluted y mending the Douro River freshwter ( µm NO, µm NH nd psu) with slts using the rtificil sewter formul (Cvnugh, 197), to chieve different slinities (, 1 nd psu) nd nitrifiction nd denitrifiction mesured s descried ove.

Denitrifiction rtes Cler different mgnitudes of denitrifiction rtes were found during the monthly smpling period in sndy sediments (Fig. ). Higher rtes of denitrifiction were oserved in August (ANOVA, p <.1) nd significntly lower rtes were registered in June, July nd Octoer (ANOVA, p <.). In sndy sediments, nitrte vilility nd slinity vritions t time zero incution wter were clerly relted to the mesured denitrifiction rtes (Fig. ). While positive reltionship ws found etween this process nd nitrte concentrtion (R =.87, p <.1, n = 9), denitrifiction rtes were negtively relted with slinity (R =. 9, p =., n = 9). The nitrte enrichment experiment corroortes with the sesonl progrm results since progressive increse in denitrifiction (ANOVA p <.1) with the incresing of nitrte vilility ws found (Fig. ). However, in the slinity controlled experiment, no significnt chnges in denitrifiction rtes etween ech tretment were oserved (ANOVA, p =.1) (Fig. ). These results, together with the fct tht during the surveys, nitrte concentrtion ws strongly relted to the slinity of esturine wter (r =.81, p =.8, n = 9) (Fig. ), suggests tht slinity my not hve physiologicl effect on the denitrifying communities tht inhit sndy sediments. Thus, the significnt reltionship found etween slinity nd denitrifiction, occurred ecuse nitrte concentrtion is function of the slinity of the wter rther thn process directly dependent of given slinity. In contrst to the results for intertidl sndy sediments, there ws no sesonl signl for denitrifiction with regrd to either slinity or nitrogen concentrtion in the intertidl rocky iofilms (Fig. ). These results re in concordnce with the sence of cler slinity regultory effect in the slinitycontrolled experiments, where no sttisticl differences etween denitrifiction rtes in the three slinities tested (ANOVA, p =.1) were found (Fig. d). The nitrte enrichment experiments showed wek stimultion of denitrifiction ctivity etween zero nd 1 µm of NO dditions (Fig. c). However, the lck of sttisticl differences etween the different tretments performed, (ANOVA, p =.), indictes tht nitrte concentrtion effect on denitrifiction rtes ws not evident. The pprent sence of cler nitrte regultory effect for rocky iofilms suggests tht this denitrifier community ws not nitrte limited. As in the cse of the intertidl 7
4 Diffuse Pollution Conference Dulin sndy sediments, nitrte vilility hs lso een identified s primry fctor in regulting enthic denitrifiction (e.g. Ogilvie et l., 1997). On the other hnd, the sence of cler physiologiclly slinity effect on the denitrifiction rtes, contrry to wht ws oserved y Rysgrd et l. (1999), indictes tht euryhline denitrifying cteri inhit oth studied environments.

In order to evlute the mgnitude of the N O ccumultion during the denitrifiction process, the reltive relese of N nd N O (N O:N rtio) ws determined (Tle 1). N O to N rtios in sndy sediments were consistent with literture vlues (Seitzinger, 1988). However for the rocky iofilms, the otined N O:N rtios were much wider, with the higher vlue oserved for the higher nitrte concentrtion (Tle 1). For oth sites, nitrte enrichment experiments showed reltively higher N O production with n incresed of the mount of nitrte dded, which grees with other reports (Seitzinger et l., 198). In the intertidl sndy sediments, N O:N rtio rose from.% t zero µm of NO ddition to 18.8% t 1 µm of NO ddition, mintining this vlue for the µm of NO ddition. In the cse of rocky iofilms, the N O:N rtio incresed ws progressive with the increse of nitrte dded (11.8% to 1.9% nd.%, respectively for µm, 1 µm nd µm of NO ). These results demonstrte progressive decrese in denitrifiction efficiency with the increse in nitrte concentrtion, since progressive ccumultion of N O ws oserved. The increse of nitrous oxide production is of much concern since it is considered potent greenhouse gs nd promoter of ozone depletion in the tmosphere (Dickinson & Ciceron, 198). nmol N g wet weight 1 h 1 nmol N g wet weight 1 h nmol N g wet weight 1 h µm NO µm NO nmol N g wet weight 1 h psu 1 psu psu psu 1 psu psu ups 1 ups ups ups 1 ups ups Figure Denitrifiction rtes in sndy sediments (, ) nd rocky iofilms (c, d) t different slinities nd nitrte tretments (error rs = stndrd error of the men of three replictes).

NITRIFICATION RATES Nitrifiction rtes in sndy sediments showed pek in June (ANOVA, p <.1) with lower vlues nd slight vritions for the other months (Fig. ). The sesonl pttern of mmonium concentrtion in time zero esturine incution wter (Fig. ) ws significntly nd linerly relted with the nitrifiction rtes mesured (R =., p =., n = 8). Also liner nd positive reltionship etween slinity nd nitrifiction rtes ws registered (R =.8, p <., n = 9). Controlled experiments showed n independently regultory effect of slinity nd mmonium in the nitrifiction ctivity of sndy sediments (Fig, ).

Correltion nlysis did not show ny reltionship etween sesonl nitrifiction rtes in rocky iofilms nd sesonl mmonium nd slinity vritions. Nevertheless, when in the control experiments mmonium concentrtion nd slinity were isolted, regultory effect of these two prmeters independently ws demonstrted (Fig. c, d), with cler stimultion of nitrifiction ctivity (%) t the highest mmonium concentrtion tested (Fig c). With respect to the controlled slinity experiment, stimultion of the nitrifiers ctivity y % ws oserved for the intermedited slinity, wheres n lmost totl inhiition of the process ws registered for psu (Fig. d). In contrst, recent studies hve shown tht progressive slinity increse reduced the nitrifiction ctivity (Rysgrd et l., 1999, Cmpos et l., ). On the other hnd, some culture experiments showed tht esturine isoltes of mmonium oxidizers exhiited optimum nitrifiction rtes t intermedite slinities (1 psu) (Jones & Hood, 198) or even etween psu (McFrlne & Herert, 198) with susequent reduction of the ctivity or inctivtion for higher slinities. The lck of evidence for mmonium concentrtion nd/or slinity s regultory prmeters for rocky iofilms during the sesonl surveys, suggests tht other prmeters could hve n importnt role in regulting the nitrifier ctivity in these iofilms. Joye & Holliught (199) suggested tht sulfide could e n importnt regultory fctor for nitrifiction. Similr to the results of this study, severl uthors hve demonstrted the strong mmonium regultory effect of nitrifiction ctivity (e.g Berounsky & Nixon, 199; Butturini et l., ). However, in this study is interesting to stress the differences etween the responses of ech studied environment to the mmonium tretments performed. While rocky iofilms nitrifiction ws gretly stimulted t the higher concentrtion of mmonium, sndy sediments showed cler inhiitory effect for such high concentrtion of mmonium (Fig., c). All these results from the sesonl progrm nd the controlled experiments suggests tht slinity nd mmonium concentrtion hve different ut importnt regultory effect on the nitrifier communities tht inhit sndy sediments nd rocky iofilms of the intertidl res of the Douro estury. While rocky iofilms nitrifier communities showed much higher tolernce to high levels of mmonium concentrtions compred with the sndy sediments, they do not tolerte s high slinities s the sndy sediments nitrifier community M NH + 77

CONCLUSIONS Denitrifying cteri of intertidl sndy sediments nd rocky iofilms were not physiologiclly influenced y the presence of se slts, indicting tht euryhline denitrifying cteri inhit oth environments. Incresing nitrte concentrtion clerly stimulted denitrifiction rtes in sndy sediments; however in rocky iofilms this stimultion ws not so evident, suggesting tht these denitrifying communities re not nitrte limited. For oth sites, it ws demonstrted decrese in denitrifiction efficiency with the increse in nitrte concentrtion, with progressive ccumultion of N O. While oth communities showed optiml nitrifiction ctivity t intermedite slinities, sndy sediments nitrifiers tolerted etter the incresing in slinity thn the nitrifier communities from rocky iofilms. Ammonium concentrtion regultory effect in the nitrifiction rtes of oth environments ws demonstrted, nd the different responses oserved etween sites, suggests tht rocky iofilms nitrifier communities re more tolernt to higher mmonium concentrtions.
