However, the archaeal contribution to ammonia oxidation in the global biosphere is not yet completely understood. The discovery of ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) in marine and terrestrial environments has transformed the concept that ammonia oxidation is operated only by bacterial species, suggesting that AOA play a significant role in the global nitrogen cycle. IMPORTANCE Because ammonia oxidation is generally the rate-limiting step in nitrification that regulates the balance of reduced and oxidized nitrogen pools in nature, it is important to understand the biological and environmental factors underlying the regulation of the rate of ammonia oxidation. This study extended the range of application of nitrite isotopes as a geochemical clock of the ammonia oxidation activity to high-temperature environments.
Because experiments have shown that the half-life of abiotic oxygen isotope exchange between nitrite and water is longer than 33 h at 70☌ and pH ≥6.6, the rate of ammonia oxidation by thermophilic Thaumarchaeota could be estimated using δ 18O NO2− in geothermal environments, where the biological nitrite turnover is likely faster than 33 h. The δ 18O value of nitrite produced from ammonia oxidation varied with the δ 18O value of water in the medium but was lower than the isotopic equilibrium value in water. We first report the isotope effects of ammonia oxidation at 70☌ by thermophilic Thaumarchaeota populations composed almost entirely of “ Candidatus Nitrosocaldus.” The nitrogen isotope effect of ammonia oxidation varied with ambient pH (25‰ to 32‰) and strongly suggests the oxidation of ammonia, not ammonium. Nitrogen and oxygen isotope ratios of nitrite (δ 15N NO2− and δ 18O NO2−, respectively) are geochemical tracers for evaluating the sources and the in situ rate of nitrite turnover determined from the activities of nitrification and denitrification however, the isotope ratios of nitrite from archaeal ammonia oxidation have been characterized only for a few marine species. Although ammonia-oxidizing archaea have been recently recognized to often outnumber ammonia-oxidizing bacteria in various environments, the contribution of ammonia-oxidizing archaea is still uncertain due to difficulties in the in situ quantification of ammonia oxidation activity.
