Congrats @Tanya__Marshall @NisotopesUCT and @dangergranger5!! Check out their new paper on N2 fixation in the Angola Gyre
The Angola Gyre is a hotspot of dinitrogen fixation in the South Atlantic Ocean | Communications Earth & Environment - it’s the overlap of excess phosphorus and iron that controls the regional distribution of N2 fixation
