Many constructed wetlands adequately treat BOD 5 , TSS, and bacteria. However, a review of nitrogen (N) data from 52 constructed and natural wetlands in the North American data base confirmed that N removal was variable. Nitrification and denitrification require aerobic and anaerobic conditions. This paper presents case histories of systems that use alternating shallow and deep water zones to create both environments. Regression analysis of N removal and N loadings in 18 shallow-deep water systems suggested that NH 4 + loading (kg N/ha/day) could be used to predict effluent NH 4 + values. Combinations of shallow water-emergent vegetation and deep water-submergent vegetation with low NH 4 + (and TKN) loading rates can produce very low levels of discharged NH 4 + .
