Dynamics of ammonia volatilization and nitrous oxide production from urine patches in grazed pastures
(Lincoln College, University of Canterbury, 1984)
A continuously aspirated enclosure method was used to measure ammonia (NH₃) volatilization from simulated sheep urine patches in a perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne) / white clover (Trifolium repens) pasture in the field ...
Comparison of measured and EF5-r derived N₂O fluxes from a spring-fed river
(Blackwell Publishing, 2006)
There is considerable uncertainty in the estimates of indirect N₂O emissions as defined by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's (IPCC) methodology. Direct measurements of N₂O yields and fluxes in aquatic river ...
Lime and soil moisture effects on nitrous oxide emissions from a urine patch
(Soil Science Society of America, 2004)
Liming has been mooted as a mitigation option for lowering soil N₂O emissions. This study investigated the effect of soil pH and soil water content on N₂O and N₂ emissions following the addition of synthetic urine (500 kg ...
Unweathered wood biochar impact on nitrous oxide emissions from a bovine-urine-amended pasture soil
(Soil Science Society of America, 2010)
Low-temperature pyrolysis of biomass produces a product known as biochar. The incorporation of this material into the soil has been advocated as a C sequestration method. Biochar also has the potential to influence the ...
Diurnal fluctuations of dissolved nitrous oxide (N₂O) concentrations and estimates of N₂O emissions from a spring-fed river: implications for IPCC methodology
(Blackwell Publishing, 2007)
There is uncertainty in the estimates of indirect nitrous oxide (N₂O) emissions as defined by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). The uncertainty is due to the challenge and dearth of in situ measurements. ...
Soil respiratory quotient determined via barometric process separation combined with nitrogen-15 labeling
(Soil Science Society of America, 2004)
The barometric process separation (BaPS) and ¹⁵N dilution techniques were used to determine gross nitrification rates on the same soil cores from an old grassland soil. The BaPS-technique separates the O₂ consumption into ...
Real-time, high-resolution quantitative measurement of multiple soil gas emissions : selected ion flow tube mass spectrometry
(American Society of Agronomy, Crop Science Society of America, and Soil Science Society of America, 2002)
A new technique is presented for the rapid, high-resolution identification and quantification of multiple trace gases above soils, at concentrations down to 0.01 µL L⁻¹ (10 ppb). The technique, selected ion flow tube mass ...
Accounting for the utilization of a N₂O mitigation tool in the IPCC inventory methodology for agricultural soils
(Springer Netherlands, 2007)
In this study we review recent studies
where dicyandiamide was used as a nitrification inhibitor to reduce both N₂O emissions from urine patches and nitrate leaching from pasture systems, and which led to the development ...
