Hello,
I am interesting in doing a project to manage the nitrogen cycle. To do this I want to create a habitat that promotes the growth and activity of denitrifiers and then use it to remove excess nitrate in runoff (suggested to me by Sybee). I'm not sure how to go about this project or what I would need. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Re: Promote the growth of denitrifiers
One suggestion--keep all your posts together on one grade level or the other. Splitting up the posts for a single project can cause lots of confusion, frustration and wasted time. I replied to your grade 6-8 post before i realized that you had also posted on the grade 9-12 forum.

Re: Promote the growth of denitrifiers
Sorry about that! I am a newbie on this site and never realized.

Re: Promote the growth of denitrifiers
That's ok. Let's use the Grade 6-8 forum since that seems to be the one where most of the posts are now.
