英文摘要 | The oceanic nitrogen cycle is critically important for the partitioning of greenhouse gases between ocean and atmosphere. Baffin Bay connects ocean regions that are major sources (North Atlantic) and sinks (North Pacific and western Arctic) of biologically available nitrogen and further harbors supersaturation of nitrous oxide and a coincident deficit in nitrate in the deep basin. Isotopic tracer profiles of both nitrogen species presented here provide novel insights into the origin and cycling of reactive nitrogen in Baffin Bay, highlighting the connectivity between different Arctic systems and horizontal components of basin-scale nutrient transport. Baffin Bay bottom water properties are derived from export production in northern Baffin Bay, which is largely fueled by Pacific-derived nutrients. In situ remineralization at depth gives rise to benthic denitrification, evidenced by a pronounced accumulation of nitrous oxide with a distinctively high site preference (<44‰) in the deep basin. Nutrients supplied to Baffin Bay are hence stripped from surface waters and trapped at depth over long timescales, where sedimentary denitrification further adds to the N removal capacity of the Arctic Ocean. ©2019.
