- Abstract
The article presents a study which focuses on denitrification and determination of the total nitrate uptake in tropical streams and watersheds of Puerto Rico. The study was conducted to nine streams at Luquillo Experimental Forest (LEF) in the Caribbean island. It states that the natural log regression of nitrogen flux value was utilized to calculate the uptake lengths. The study shows that a denitrification of 1- 97% nitrate uptake has been associated to five of the nine streams.
