Results from our forumWhat's the chemical reaction catalysed by nitrate reductase?... aerobic organisms the chemical reaction would be (NADH + H + 1/2O2) -> (NAD+ + H2O) but how does this work with nitrite reductase in anaerobic respiration?

I have to compare nitrate levels with autotrophs present (or dissolved oxygen levels) in a ... effect on each other in SOME way. So, will Gross Primary Production or Respiration (amount of energy used by community) be a more direct measurement ...

Question on anaerobic respirationYes, you're right. Just one spesification: anaeroboc respiration is not just glycolysis and fermentation. It can be production of variuos ... it is, for example, pyruvate, and in other case can be sulphate or nitrate ions).
