Niche construction by non‐diazotrophs for N2 fixers in the eastern tropical North Atlantic Ocean

Abstract Diazotrophic dinitrogen (N2) fixation contributes ~76% to “new” nitrogen inputs to the sunlit open ocean, but environmental factors determining N2 fixation rates are not well constrained. Excess phosphate (phosphate–nitrate/16 > 0) and iron availability control N2 fixation rates in the e...
