With the increase in human activities, dissolved organic nitrogen (DON) has been the major nitrogen pool, which might impact on eutrophication of coastal water. We studied the bioavailability of different molecular size DON from the major sources of agricultural, domestic, industrial, and urban non-point source, respectively, in Jiaozhou bay, China. By clarifying the relationship between the source and molecular size, the bioavailability of terrestrial DON can be further understood based on the aspects of bioavailability proportion (BDON%) and kinetics with the help of ultraviolet radiation. The bioavailability proportion of high molecular size DON (HDON; >1000 Da) was higher than that of low molecular size DON (LDON; <1000 Da), with values of 58.0% to 35.1% for the HDON and values of 47.2% to 29.5% for the LDON, respectively. There were significant differences in the degradation rate constants (p < 0.05), which varied from 0.30 to 0.67 d⁻¹ for HDON and from 0.13 to 0.75 d⁻¹ for LDON. The SUVA₂₅₄ values were significantly and negatively correlated with the bioavailabilities of DON, which can reflect to some extent the structure and molecular size. In order to study the influences of the different terrestrial DON inputs on the eutrophication of Jiaozhou bay, a modified 3D coupled biogeochemical model was used based on the survey data in August 2012. Two scenarios of DON loads from Haibo river and Dagu river were modeled. The impact on eutrophication of Jiaozhou bay is higher for the agricultural source of DON from Dagu river than for the domestic source from Haibo river.
