University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science 1 article published in JoVE Environment The Benthic Exchange of O2, N2 and Dissolved Nutrients Using Small Core Incubations Michael S. Owens1, Jeffrey C. Cornwell1 1Horn Point Laboratory, University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science Here, we present small core incubations for the measurement of sediment-water gas and solute exchange. These will provide reliable measurements of sediment-water exchange that assess the role of sediment in influencing biological and biogeochemical processes in aquatic ecosystems.
