摘要

Rivers and streams constitute a major pathway for material transport from land to sea and an important source of greenhouse gases. Short-term variation in stream chemistry due to day-night oxygen (O_2) fluctuations could significantly affect a stream's capacity to transport nutrients and produce greenhouse gases. Though it is well established that diel cycles are important in controlling O_2 and CO_2 dynamics, the study of diel dynamics of other redox-sensitive elements has been fairly limited. Here we show that a subtropical stream can undergo complete reduction and oxidation sequences in just a few hours. This redox fluctuation has important consequences for downstream transfer of nutrients and for greenhouse gas pro- duction. Among these consequences are decreased deni-trification rates relative to estimates made using only daytime measurements (17-38% during our observation period), increased downstream nitrogen (N) transfer, a striking change in form of transported N (decreased nitrate and increased ammonium), and decreased estimates of in-stream nitrous oxide (N_2O) flux (36-38% during our observation period). Additionally, methane (CH_4) concentrations doubled and carbon dioxide (CO_2) concentrations rose from 4.6 to 30.7 mg L~(-1) during the 24-hour period of our observations. Diel shifts like the one we describe have implications for our understanding of nutrient transport and greenhouse gas production in eutrophied streams.
