Zusammenfassung:A survey was conducted in the Haicheng River near Liaodong Bay to analyze the characteristics and sources of the in-stream nitrogen pollution throughout the year 2010. The results indicated that the total nitrogen (TN) concentrations in the river water all exceeded the GB3838-2002 standard for Class V guideline of 2.0mg/l at all sampling sites during the sampling seasons. Ammoniacal nitrogen (NH3-N) dominated TN during the spring season, while nitrate nitrogen (NO3-N) dominated during the summer and autumn seasons. Different forms of nitrogen had significant seasonal variations (p
