Аннотация:<jats:p>Petroleum contamination of soils remains a significant environmental problem in boreal regions, where low temperatures constrain natural attenuation processes and complicate bioremediation. Nitrogen biostimulation is widely used to enhance petroleum hydrocarbon degradation; however, the combined effects of temperature regime, nitrogen form, contamination level, and nitrogen dosage remain insufficiently resolved for sandy podzolic soils of northern regions. This study investigated nitrogen-assisted biostimulation of petroleum-contaminated sandy podzolic soil collected in the Khanty–Mansi Autonomous Okrug (Western Siberia, Russia) using a factorial experimental design. Soil samples were artificially contaminated with crude oil at concentrations of 25, 50, and 100 g kg−1 and incubated under warm and cold temperature regimes. Two nitrogen sources, urea and ammonium nitrate, were applied at several dosages. Changes in residual petroleum hydrocarbon content were monitored together with the abundance of culturable microorganisms under the applied cultivation conditions at the intermediate contamination level on day 60. Nitrogen supplementation enhanced petroleum hydrocarbon removal relative to the untreated control, but the magnitude of the effect depended substantially on temperature, nitrogen form, and contamination level. Under the tested conditions, ammonium nitrate was generally associated with stronger hydrocarbon removal than urea, particularly at the intermediate contamination level (50 g kg−1). The results indicate that the response to nitrogen biostimulation in sandy boreal soils is controlled by interacting experimental factors rather than by nitrogen addition alone. These findings improve the positioning of nutrient-assisted remediation in cold-region soils and provide a basis for future mechanistic and field-scale studies.</jats:p>
