The mat building photosynthetic microbes need nitrogen to produce biomass. The actual availability of combined nitrogen depends on the balance between sources and sinks in the mat. Sources are dissolved nitrogen in the overlying water, nitrogen from mineralization processes, and nitrogen fixation, and sinks are burial of nitrogen, efflux of dissolved nitrogen, and denitrification.
