  • Abstract:Denitrification often occurs in the water column, underlying zones of intense productivity and decomposition in upwelling regions. In the denitrifying zone off the southwest coast of India, high concentrations of nitrite (>15 µM) and nitrous oxide (>500 nM) have been reported near the sediment-water interface (
