Journal Article
Drijfhout. (2019). Revealing chlorinated ethene transformation hotspots in a nitrate-impacted hyporheic zone. Water Research, 222-231. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.watres.2019.05.083

Hyporheic zones are increasingly thought of as natural bioreactors, capable of transforming and attenuating groundwater pollutants present in diffuse baseflow. An underappreciated scenario in the understanding of contaminant fate hyporheic zones is t...

Phenotypic Plasticity of Nest-Mate Recognition Cues in Formica exsecta Ants. (2019)
Journal Article
Martin, S. J., Drijfhout, F. P., & Hart, A. G. (2019). Phenotypic Plasticity of Nest-Mate Recognition Cues in Formica exsecta Ants. Journal of Chemical Ecology, 735 -740. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10886-019-01103-2

It is well established that many ant species have evolved qualitatively distinct species-specific chemical profile that are stable over large geographical distances. Within these species profiles quantitative variations in the chemical profile allows... Read More about Phenotypic Plasticity of Nest-Mate Recognition Cues in Formica exsecta Ants..

Biological nitrogen fixation in peatlands: Comparison between acetylene reduction assay and 15N2 assimilation methods (2019)
Journal Article
Drijfhout. (2019). Biological nitrogen fixation in peatlands: Comparison between acetylene reduction assay and 15N2 assimilation methods. Soil Biology and Biochemistry, 157 - 165. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.soilbio.2019.01.011

Biological Nitrogen Fixation (BNF) is an essential microbial process supplying available nitrogen (N) to Sphagnum mosses in ombrotrophic peatlands. Acetylene Reduction Assay (ARA) and the 15N2 assimilation are the main methods used for the measuremen...
