Nitrous oxide sources - Oceans
Large amounts of oceanic nitrous oxide can also arise from denitrification in marine sediments, particularly in nutrient rich areas such as those of estuaries. Some nitrous oxide is also produced as a byproduct of nitrification in the world's oceans. Human Impact As with methane, man's impact on oceanic nitrous oxide emission lies primarily in our effect on oceanic ...
