Dynamics of N<sub>2</sub> fixation and fate of diazotroph-derived nitrogen in a low-nutrient, low-chlorophyll ecosystem: results from the VAHINE mesocosm experiment (New Caledonia)

N<sub>2</sub> fixation rates were measured daily in large (∼ 50 m<sup>3</sup>) mesocosms deployed in the tropical southwest Pacific coastal ocean (New Caledonia) to investigate the temporal variability in N<sub>2</sub> fixation rates in relation with environmental...
