英文摘要: Tidal estuarine channels have complex and dynamic interfaces controlled by upland groundwater discharge, waves, tides and channel velocities that also control biogeochemical processes within adjacent sediments. In an Australian subtropical estuary, discharging groundwater with elevated (> 300 mg N L-1) NH4 + and NO3 - concentrations had 80 % of the N attenuated at this interface, one of the highest N removal rates (> 100 mmol m-2 day-1) measured for intertidal sediments. The remaining N was also diluted by a factor of 2 or more by mixing with surface water before being discharged to the estuary. Most of the mixing occurred in a hyporheic zone in the upper 50 cm of the channel bed. However, groundwater entering this zone was already partially mixed (12 %-60 %) with surface water via tide-induced circulation. Below the hyporheic zone (50-125 cm below the channel bed), NO3 - concentrations declined slightly faster than NH4 + concentrations and δ15NNO3 and δ18ONO3 gradually increased, suggesting a co-occurrence of anammox and denitrification. In the hyporheic zone, δ15NNO3 continued to become enriched (consistent with either denitrification or anammox) but δ18ONO3 became more depleted (indicating some nitrification). A high δ15NNO3 (23-35) and a low δ18ONO3 (1.2 %-8.2 %) in all porewater samples indicated that the original synthetic nitrate pool (industrial NH4NO3; δ15N ∼ 0 %; δ18O ∼ 18 %-20 %) had turned over completely during transport in the aquifer before reaching the channel bed. Whilst porewater NO3 - was more δ18O depleted than its synthetic source, porewater δ18OH2O (-3.2 % to-1.8 %) was enriched by 1 %-4 % relative to rainfall-derived groundwater mixed with seawater. Isotopic fractionation from H2O uptake during the N cycle and H2O production during synthetic NO3 - reduction are the probable causes for this δ18OH2O enrichment. Whilst occurring at a smaller spatial scale than tide-induced circulation, hyporheic exchange can provide a similar magnitude of mixing and biogeochemical transformations for groundwater solutes discharging through intertidal zones. © 2018 Author(s).
