Nitrous oxide evolution may contribute to partial destruction of the ozone layer in the stratosphere. A two year study of the release of N2O from adjoining salt, brackish, and fresh marsh sediment indicates that the annual emission was 31, 48, and 55 mg N m?2 respectively. Emission from open water area was less than the corresponding emission from the marsh sediment. In vitro experiments indicate that the N2O emission was increased when the sediment was drained for extended periods of time. The addition of NO3? significantly increased the rate of N2O evolution, indicating that a large potential for denitrification exists in the anoxic sediment. Appreciable losses of N2O would only be expected when the marshes receive an extraneous source of nitrate such as sewage and/or wastewater.The contribution of the Gulf Coast wetlands to the atmospheric N2O balance is estimated to be 3.3 × 109 g N2O. The maximum average daily emission was equivalent to 1.5 g N2O-N ha?1, which is less than the measured emission from uncultivated soils (Mosieret al., 1981) but greater than the estimates from noncropped land (CAST, 1976).  相似文献

Aquatic ecosystems have been identified as a globally significant source of nitrous oxide (N2O) due to continuous active nitrogen involvement, but the processes and influencing factors that control N2O production are still poorly understood, especially in reservoirs. For that, monthly N2O variations were monitored in Dongfeng reservoir (DFR) with a mesotrophic condition. The dissolved N2O concentration in DFR displayed a distinct spatial–temporal pattern but lower than that in the eutrophic reservoirs. During the whole sampling year, N2O saturation ranging from 144% to 640%, indicating that reservoir acted as source of atmospheric N2O. N2O production is induced by the introduction of nitrogen (NO3 ?, NH4 +) in mesotrophic reservoirs, and is also affected by oxygen level and water temperature. Nitrification was the predominate process for N2O production in DFR due to well-oxygenated longitudinal water layers. Mean values of estimated N2O flux from the air–water interface averaged 0.19 µmol m?2 h?1 with a range of 0.01–0.61 µmol m?2 h?1. DFR exhibited less N2O emission flux than that reported in a nearby eutrophic reservoir, but still acted as a moderate N2O source compared with other reservoirs and lakes worldwide. Annual emissions from the water–air interface of DFR were estimated to be 0.32 × 105 mol N–N2O, while N2O degassing from releasing water behind the dam during power generation was nearly five times greater. Hence, N2O degassing behind the dam should be taken into account for estimation of N2O emissions from artificial reservoirs, an omission that historically has probably resulted in underestimates. IPCC methodology should consider more specifically N2O emission estimation in aquatic ecosystems, especially in reservoirs, the default EF5 model will lead to an overestimation.  相似文献

中国农田的温室气体排放   总被引:70,自引:2,他引:70  
中国是一个农业大国,拥有约1.33百万平方公里的农田。这些田地的种植、翻耕、施肥、灌溉等管理措施不仅长期改变着农田生态系统中的化学元素循环,而且给全球气候变化带来影响。农业生态系统对全球变化的影响主要是通过改变3种温室气体,即二氧化碳(CO2)、甲烷(CH4)和氧化亚氮(N2O)在土壤-大气界面的交换而实现的。为了分析多种因素(如气候、土壤质地、农作物品种及各种农田经营管理措施等)对农业土壤释放CO22222222  相似文献

This study investigates the occurrence of greenhouse gases (GHGs) and the role of groundwater as an indirect pathway of GHG emissions into surface waters in a gaining stretch of the Triffoy River agricultural catchment (Belgium). To this end, nitrous oxide (N2O), methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations, the stable isotopes of nitrate, and major ions were monitored in river and groundwater over 8 months. Results indicated that groundwater was strongly oversaturated in N2O and CO2 with respect to atmospheric equilibrium (50.1 vs. 0.55 μg L?1 for N2O and 14,569 vs. 400 ppm for CO2), but only marginally for CH4 (0.45 vs. 0.056 μg L?1), suggesting that groundwater can be a source of these GHGs to the atmosphere. Nitrification seemed to be the main process for the accumulation of N2O in groundwater. Oxic conditions prevailing in the aquifer were not prone for the accumulation of CH4. In fact, the emissions of CH4 from the river were one to two orders of magnitude higher than the inputs from groundwater, meaning that CH4 emissions from the river were due to CH4 in-situ production in riverbed or riparian zone sediments. For CO2 and N2O, average emissions from groundwater were 1.5?×?105 kg CO2 ha?1 year?1 and 207 kg N2O ha?1 year?1, respectively. Groundwater is probably an important source of N2O and CO2 in gaining streams but when the measures are scaled at catchment scale, these fluxes are probably relatively modest. Nevertheless, their quantification would better constrain nitrogen and carbon budgets in natural systems.  相似文献

 Three dolines (sinkholes), each representing different land uses (crop, grass, and forest) in a karst area in East Tennesse, were selected to determine soil erosional and depositional rates. Three methods were used to estimate the rates: fallout radiocesium (137Cs) redistribution, buried surface soil horizons (Ab horizon), and the revised universal soil loss equation (RUSLE). When 137Cs redistribution was examined, the average soil erosion rates were calculated to be 27 t ha–1 yr–1 at the cropland, 3 t ha–1 yr–1 at the grassland, and 2 t ha–1 yr–1 at the forest. By comparison, cropland erosion rate of 2.6 t ha–1 yr–1, a grassland rate of 0.6 t ha–1 yr–1, and a forest rate of 0.2 t ha–1 yr–1 were estimated by RUSLE. The 137Cs method expressed higher rates than RUSLE because RUSLE tends to overestimate low erosion rates and does not account for deposition. The buried surface horizons method resulted in deposition rates that were 8 t ha–1 yr–1 (during 480 yr) at the cropland, 12 t ha–1 yr–1 (during 980 yr) at the grassland, and 4 t ha–1 yr–1 (during 101 yr) at the forest site. By examining 137Cs redistribution, soil deposition rates were found to be 23 t ha–1 yr–1 at the cropland, 20 t ha–1 yr–1 at the grassland, and 16 t ha–1 yr–1 at the forest site. The variability in deposition rates was accounted for by temporal differences;137Cs expressed deposition during the last 38 yr, whereas Ab horizons represented deposition during hundreds of years. In most cases, land use affected both erosion and deposition rates – the highest rates of soil redistribution usually representing the cropland and the lowest, the forest. When this was not true, differences in the rates were attributed to differences in the size, shape, and closure of the dolines. Received: 10 October 1995 · Accepted: 13 October 1995  相似文献

In recent times, soil erosion interlocked with land use and land cover (LULC) changes has become one of the most important environmental issues in developing countries. Evaluation of this complex interaction between LULC change and soil erosion is indispensable in land use planning and conservation works. This paper analysed the impact of LULC change on soil erosion in the north-western highland Ethiopia over the period 1986–2016. Rib watershed, the area with dynamic LULC change and severe soil erosion problem, was selected as a case study site. Integrated approach that combined geospatial technologies with revised universal soil loss equation model was utilized to evaluate the spatio-temporal dynamics of soil loss over the study period. Pixel-based overlay of soil erosion intensity maps with LULC maps was carried out to understand the change in soil loss due to LULC change. Results showed that the annual soil loss in the study area varied from 0 to 236.5 t ha?1 year?1 (tons per hectare per year) in 1986 and 0–807 t ha?1 year?1 in 2016. The average annual soil loss for the entire watershed was estimated about 40 t ha?1 year?1 in 1986 comparing with 68 t ha?1 year?1 in 2016, a formidable increase. Soil erosion potential that was estimated to exceed the average soil loss tolerance level increased from 34.5% in 1986 to 66.8% in 2016. Expansion of agricultural land at the expense of grassland and shrubland was the most detrimental factor for severe soil erosion in the watershed. The most noticeable change in soil erosion intensity was observed from cropland with mean annual soil loss amount increased to 41.38 t ha?1 year?1 in 2016 from 26.60 in 1986. Moreover, the most successive erosion problems were detected in eastern, south-eastern and northern parts of the watershed. Therefore, the results of this study can help identify the soil erosion hot spots and conservation priority areas at local and regional levels.  相似文献

Constructed wetlands (CWs) are considered important sources of nitrous oxide (N2O). Various reports in the literature indicate that CWs have high N2O emission rates. The release of N2O from CWs treating wastewater emissions range from ?16.7 to 188 mg N2O m?2day?1. N2O in CWs is produced mainly by nitrification, denitrification, nitrifier denitrification, and nitrate-ammonification. Denitrification is considered the major source of N2O under most conditions. In recent years, two main methods of sampling N2O gas in CWs have been employed, including the headspace equilibration technique and the closed static chambers technique. N2O emission may be affected by various operating parameters and environmental conditions. One of the main environmental factors affecting the removal of nitrogen in CWs is dissolved oxygen, which affects nitrification and denitrification processes, thus greatly influencing N2O emission. CW gas dynamics is affected mainly by season and weather conditions, especially temperature and moisture. Aquatic plants, flow regime, oxidation–reduction potential, nitrate concentration, C/N ratio and other factors can affect N2O emission in CWs.  相似文献

Much uncertainty exists in spatial and temporal variations of nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from coastal marshes in temperate regions. To investigate the spatial and temporal variations of N2O fluxes and determine the environmental factors influencing N2O fluxes across the coastal marsh dominated by Suaeda salsa in the Yellow River estuary, China, in situ measurements were conducted in high marsh (HM), middle marsh (MM), low marsh (LM), and mudflat (MF) in autumn and winter during 2011–2012. Results showed that mean N2O fluxes and cumulative N2O emission indicated intertidal zone of the examined marshes as N2O sources over all sampling seasons with range of 0.0051 to 0.0152 mg N2O m?2 h?1 and 7.58 to 22.02 mg N2O m?2, respectively. During all times of day and the seasons measured, N2O fluxes from the intertidal zone ranged from ?0.0004 to 0.0644 mg N2O m?2 h?1. The freeze/thaw cycles in sediments during early winter (frequent short-term cycle) and midwinter (long-term cycle) were one of main factors affecting the temporal variations of N2O emission. The spatial variations of N2O fluxes in autumn were mainly dependent on tidal fluctuation and plant composition. The ammonia-nitrogen (NH4 +–N) in sediments of MF significantly affected N2O emissions (p < 0.05), and the high concentrations of Fe in sediments might affect the spatial variation of N2O fluxes. This study highlighted the large spatial variation of N2O fluxes across the coastal marsh (coefficient of variation (CV) = 127.86 %) and the temporal variation of N2O fluxes during 2011–2012 (CV = 137.29 %). Presently, the exogenous C and N loadings of the Yellow River estuary are increasing due to human activities; thus, the potential effects of exogenous C and N loadings on N2O emissions during early winter should be paid more attention as the N2O inventory is assessed precisely.  相似文献

Freshwater marshes could be a source of greenhouse gases emission because they contain large amounts of soil carbon and nitrogen. These emissions are strongly influenced by exogenous nitrogen. We investigate the effects of exogenous nitrogen on ecosystem respiration (CO2), CH4 and N2O emissions from freshwater marshes in situ in the Sanjiang Plain Northeast of China during the growing seasons of 2004 and 2005, using a field fertilizer experiment and the static opaque chamber/GC techniques. The results show that there were no significant differences in patterns of seasonal variations of CO2 and CH4 among the fertilizer and non-fertilizer treatments, but the seasonal patterns of N2O emission were significantly influenced by the exogenous nitrogen. Seasonal averages of the CO2 flux from non-fertilizer and fertilizer were 987.74 and 1,344.35 mg m 2 h 1, respectively, in 2004, and 898.59 and 2,154.17 mg m 2 h 1, respectively, in 2005. And the CH4 from the control and fertilizer treatments were 6.05 and 13.56 mg m 2 h 1 and 0.72 and 1.88 mg m 2 h 1, respectively, in 2004 and 2005. The difference of N2O flux between the fertilizer and non-fertilizer treatments is also significant either in 2004 and 2005. On the time scale of 20-, 100-, and 500-year periods, the integrated global warming potential (GWP) of CO2 + CH4 + N2O released during the two growing seasons for the treatment of fertilizer was 97, 94 and 89%, respectively, higher than that for the control, which suggested that the nitrogen fertilizer can enhance the GWP of the CH4 and N2O either in long time or short time scale.  相似文献

The freshwater marshes in northern China are heavily impacted by anthropogenic disturbances such as cultivation and fertilization and increased levels of nutrients (especially N and P) through atmospheric deposition and agricultural surface runoff. These disturbances have affected the emission of N2O from these systems. This laboratory study was conducted to determine the effects of increased inputs of inorganic N and P on N2O emission from marsh soil in response to different soil moisture conditions. The results showed that the emission of N2O increased with the enhancement of N inputs when the soil was submerged, but that the highest N treatment suppressed the emission of N2O when the soil was at 60% water holding capacity (WHC), which may have occurred due to an inadequate amount of available C. Furthermore, the results of this study indicated that a small amount of N fertilizer induced much more N2O evolution from freshwater wetland soil, while P fertilizer inputs appeared to stimulate the emission of N2O only during the first few days of the experiment. Additionally, soil that was treated with P appeared to absorb N2O when it was at 60% WHC after around 6 weeks of the incubation, which indicates that the input of P fertilizer might serve as a shift of source or N2O sink in wetland soils under non-flooded conditions. When compared to soil at 60% WHC, submerged soil had significantly higher N2O emissions, except when subjected to the medial N treatment. These findings indicate that the soil moisture condition had a significant effect on N2O emissions when the same amount of N or P was applied. Therefore, the effects of N and P fertilization in the northern temperate wetlands cannot be neglected from regional or national emissions of N2O.  相似文献

In order to better understand the spatiotemporal variations and interrelationships of greenhouse gases (GHG), monthly surface fluxes and profile concentrations of GHG (CO2, N2O and CH4) in karst areas in the Guizhou Province, southwest China, were measured from June 2006 to May 2007. GHG fluxes showed high variability, with a range of 460.9?C1,281.2?mg?m?2?h?1 for CO2, ?25.4 to 81.5???g?m?2?h?1 for N2O and ?28.7 to ?274.9???g?m?2?h?1 for CH4, but no obvious seasonal change trends of the fluxes existed. Profile concentrations of CO2, N2O and CH4 varied between 0.5 and 31.5?mL?L?1, 0.273 and 0.734, and 0.1 and 3.5???L?L?1, respectively. In general, concentrations of CO2 and N2O increased with depth, while CH4 had an inverse trend. However, in October, November and January, the reversal of depth patterns of GHG concentrations took place below 15?cm, close to the soil?Crock interface. The spatiotemporal distribution of CO2 in soil profile was significantly positively correlated with that of N2O (p?<?0.05?C0.01) and negatively correlated with that of CH4 (p?<?0.01). The correlation analysis showed that soil temperature and moisture may be responsible for GHG dynamics in the soils, rather than the exchange of GHG between land and atmosphere.  相似文献

Soil nutrient dynamics, potential biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) changes, and their relations were studied using four land use types. Further, we investigated BNF changes in the presence of biochar in soils. Soil samples were collected from arable, vineyard, grassland, and forest soils during four seasons, and analyzed for abiotic contents of total nitrogen, NH4+-N, NO3?-N, ammonium lactate (AL)-soluble K2O, P2O5, and soil organic carbon (SOC) concentrations. Potential N2 fixation was measured as ethylene (C2H4) production from acetylene (C2H2) reduction (ARA). The study focused on the changes in ARA when different types of biochars (T600, T650, and T700) were applied to soil samples in different amounts (0, 0.5, 2.5, and 5.0% wt wt?1) under laboratory conditions. We found strong correlations between soil chemical parameters and ARA values, especially in the case of soil pH, total N, SOC, and P2O5 contents. In the case of arable soil, the ARA measurements were up to 227 times higher compared to grassland and forest samples. Biochar application affected N2-fixing microbial responses among land use types, most notably decreases in arable lands and forest soils. We found that a high amount of biochar added to the soils can greatly suppress N2-fixing activities. Our results highlight the strong relationship between soil nutrient changes and the intensity of anthropogenic influence.  相似文献

This study examines the consistency between the AVHRR and MODIS normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) datasets in estimating net primary productivity (NPP) and net ecosystem productivity (NEP) over India during 2001–2006 in a terrestrial ecosystem model. Harmonic analysis is employed to estimate seasonal components of the time series. The stationary components (representing long-term mean) of the respective NDVI time series are highly coherent and exhibit inherent natural vegetation characteristics with high values over the forest, moderate over the cropland, and small over the grassland. Both data exhibit strong semi-annual oscillations over the cropland dominated Indo-Gangetic plains while annual oscillations are strong over most parts of the country. MODIS has larger annual amplitude than that of the AVHRR. The similar variability exists on the estimates of NPP and NEP across India. In an annual scale, MODIS-based NPP budget is 1.78 PgC, which is 27% higher than the AVHRR- based estimate. It revealed that the Indian terrestrial ecosystem remained the sink of atmospheric CO 2 during the study period with 42 TgC y ?1 NEP budget associated with MODIS-based estimate against 18 TgC y ?1 for the AVHRR-based estimate.  相似文献

The objective of this study was to investigate nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from different land-use types in eastern China. The dynamic changes of N2O emissions were investigated in tea gardens with different nitrogen application rates, their adjacent vegetable garden and forest soils from June 2009 to May 2010. The results showed that high nitrogen application in a tea garden significantly increased soil N2O emissions. Lower N2O emission and percentage of N2O–N to the applied N were observed in a tea garden with low N application than that from vegetable garden, indicating reasonable control of N application can efficiently decrease N2O pollution in tea gardens. Both air and soil temperature had significant and positive impact on N2O emissions, but little effect of precipitation was observed. Therefore, N application rate and environmental temperature are the most essential factors in influencing N2O emission and should be taken into consideration in the field management of tea production.  相似文献

太湖及其周围河流中N2O的空间分布与释放通量   总被引:2,自引:1,他引:1       下载免费PDF全文
本次研究选择中国东部一个生态和环境空间分异极大的浅水湖泊(太湖)以及周围河流,分别于2003年7月和9月两次采集湖水和河水样品,分析其中的N2O浓度,并利用扩散模型公式估算水-气界面N2O交换通量。结果显示N2O饱和度的空间变化从70%不饱和到2708%过饱和变化范围很大。N2O饱和度的空间分布,N2O与CH4、无机氮、TDS(总溶解固体物质)之间的相关性都表明:   太湖重度富营养区N2O的产生极大地受到人为N输入的影响。然而,初步的通量分析显示湖泊N2O的释放因子不超过0.63%,小于河流中的默认值,N2O产率也略低于水环境中的平均值,太湖以面积为权重的释放通量平均值并不高,在7月和9月分别为14.0μmol/m2·d和9.7μmol/m2·d。这些结果表明流域人为N输入对整个湖泊N2O的促进作用是有限的,预计未来湖泊N2O释放不会因为人为活动增加而出现大幅度增加的状况。流域内各生态景观N2O释放量的比较,也表明富营养湖泊总体上仍然是一个十分有限的大气N2O释放源。相反,太湖周围河流存在较大的N2O释放速率,在7月和9月估算的N2O释放通量分别为142.1μmol/m2·d和28.8μmol/m2·d。将这一释放速率推广到整个流域后,预计河网的N2O释放量将占到耕作土壤的10%~50%,显示了河流对区域N2O质量平衡具有较重要的影响。  相似文献

The universal soil loss equation (USLE) is an erosion model to estimate average soil loss that would generally result from splash, sheet, and rill erosion from agricultural plots. Recently, use of USLE has been extended as a useful tool predicting soil losses and planning control practices by the effective integration of the GIS-based procedures to estimate the factor values on a grid cell basis. This study was performed for five different lands uses of Indağı Mountain Pass, Cankırı to predict the soil erosion risk by the USLE/GIS methodology for planning conservation measures in the site. Of the USLE factors, rainfall-runoff erosivity factor (USLE-R) and topographic factor (USLE-LS) were greatly involved in GIS. These were surfaced by correcting USLE-R site-specifically using DEM and climatic data and by evaluating USLE-LS by the flow accumulation tool using DEM and watershed delineation tool to consider the topographical and hydrological effects on the soil loss. The study assessed the soil erodibility factor (USLE-K) by randomly sampled field properties by geostatistical analysis. Crop management factor for different land-use/land cover type and land use (USLE-C) was assigned to the numerical values from crop and flora type, canopy and density of five different land uses, which are plantation, recreational land, cropland, forest and grassland, by means of reclassifying digital land use map available for the site. Support practice factor (USLE-P) was taken as a unit assuming no erosion control practices. USLE/GIS technology together with the geostatistics combined these major erosion factors to predict average soil loss per unit area per unit time. Resulting soil loss map revealed that spatial average soil loss in terms of the land uses were 1.99, 1.29, 1.21, 1.20, 0.89 t ha−1 year−1 for the cropland, grassland, recreation, plantation and forest, respectively. Since the rate of soil formation was expected to be so slow in Central Anatolia of Turkey and any soil loss of more than 1 ton ha−1 year−1 over 50–100 years was considered as irreversible for this region, soil erosion in the Indağı Mountain Pass, to the great extent, attained the irreversible state, and these findings should be very useful to take mitigation measures in the site.  相似文献

Groundwater samples from boreholes and springs in the unconfined Chalk aquifer of Cambridgeshire were analysed for N2O and other N species on a monthly basis between March 1995 and February 1996. Land use in the study area is devoted to intensive arable farming supported by the application of N-based fertilisers. All groundwater samples were strongly oversaturated with N2O, with concentrations ranging from 13 to 320 times the saturation concentration with respect to air-equilibrated water.A very good positive correlation between N2O and NO3 concentrations was obtained (r2=0.80), but no relationship was established between N2O and NO2 or NH4 concentrations. Concentrations of N2O and NO3 increased continuously in the direction of groundwater flow, with molar net gain ratios of NO3 to N2O varying between 204 and 410. These ratios are within the range reported in previous studies of nitrification. Corresponding dissolved O2 levels in groundwater samples were moderately undersaturated, further indicating that the main source of N2O in Chalk groundwater in Cambridgeshire is probably nitrification. No consumption of N2O seems to take place within the unconfined aquifer with degassing to the atmosphere apparently being the sole mechanism for N2O removal from groundwater.An estimated N2O flux of around 0.05 kg N2O ha−1 a−1 from the sampled groundwater discharge points to the atmosphere was calculated for the study area. This figure is likely to be much higher, since it does not account for diffuse N2O emissions from groundwater seepage areas or any degassing from the unconfined aquifer through the unsaturated zone. Both these processes will contribute substantially to the total aerial flux, thus suggesting that groundwater may be a significant contributor to the global N2O budget.  相似文献

Fate of riverine nitrate entering a well defined turbid estuary receiving discharges from the Atchafalaya River, a distributary of the Mississippi River, was determined. Seasonal distribution of NO3 and its transformations were measured in Four League Bay (9,300 ha). Denitrification was estimated by incubating wet samples in the presence of acetylene and monitoring N2O production. The annual sediment accumulation of N was also determined within the bay and within the adjacent marshes. Nitrogen accumulation ranged from 6.0 to 23 gN per m2 per yr on the marsh and 6.1 to 11.2 gN per m2 per yr in the bay. Denitrification in this system was controlled by the availability of NO3 ? with fluxes ranging from 2 to 70 ngN per g per hr. The annual (N2O +N2)-N emission was equivalent to 142 and 120 μg per g or 2.1 and 1.7 gN per m2 from the 5 bay and 5 marsh stations, respectively. Approximately 1.95×105 kgN, predominantly as N2, is being returned to the atmosphere via denitrification. We estimate this to be equivalent to 50% of the riverine NO3 ? entering this estuary. A significant amount was also assimilated within the estuary.  相似文献

Nitrogen oxides (NO x ) are involved in acid rain and ozone formation, as well as destruction. NO x are climate-relevant trace gases in the atmosphere. Atmospheric NO x originate from anthropogenic emissions (mainly combustion processes). NO from natural processes derives from thunderstorms and soil microbial processes. They may play a crucial role in soil?Catmosphere feedback processes. This study aims to investigate NO x -emissions from soils under different land use, geographical and meteorological conditions. NO x -emissions were quantified in both field and laboratory experiments with a closed static chamber. Disturbed soil samples have been used for laboratory experiments. A climate chamber was used to regulate soil temperature of the samples. Field experiments showed that NO-soil emissions strongly depend on soil temperature. NO-emissions from a soil under meadow showed significant daily variations, unlike soil below spruce forest. Peak emission values were 18???g NO?CN?m?2?h?1 above meadow and 1.3???g NO?CN?m?2?h?1 under forest canopy. In addition, NO-emissions of meadow and forest soil were studied in a climate chamber, enhanced by an additional experiment with agricultural soil. These experiments revealed strong exponential correlations of NO-emissions and soil temperature. Maximum values reached above 400???g NO?CN?m?2?h?1 from agricultural soils at soil temperatures above 50°C. This study shows that soil NO-emissions strongly depend on temperature, vegetation type and geographical position. Consequently, NO-emissions may have a positive feedback effect on climate change.  相似文献
