This study investigates the community composition and activity rates of two important groups of microorganisms- the ammonia oxidisers and the methane oxidising bacteria- at Hockham Heath as well as at a non N-impacted site, Alice Holt, Surrey.
To identify the community structure, abundance and activity of MOB, AOB and AOA in forest soils subject to increasing nitrogen deposition (NH4+ and NO3–) in relation to tree species, Corsican Pine (Pinus nigra) and Beech (Fagus sylvatica).
This research was undertaken by Emma Thorpe at University of Essex, with supervision by Dr. Elena Vanguelova at Forest Research.
