Influence of different organic amendments on emissions of GHG from soil and their global warming potential (GWP) was studied in a field experiment in rice\u2013wheat cropping system of Indo-Gangetic plains (IGP). There was 28% increase in CH4 emissions on addition of 25% N through Sesbania GM along with urea compared to urea alone. Substitution of 100% inorganic N by organic sources lead to a 60% increase in CH4 emissions. The carbon equivalent emission from rice\u2013wheat systems varied between 3816 and 4886\u00a0kg C equivalent\u00a0ha\u22121 depending upon fertilizer and organic amendment. GWP of rice\u2013wheat system increased by 28% on full substitution of organic N by chemical N. However, the C efficiency ratios of the GM and crop residue treatments were at par with the recommended inorganic fertilizer treatment. Thus use of organic amendments along with inorganic fertilizer increases the GWP of the rice\u2013wheat system but may improve the soil fertility status without adversely affecting the C efficiency ratio. However, the trade-off between improved yield and soil health versus GHG emissions should be taken into account while promoting the practice of farming with organic residues substitution for mineral fertilizer.", "keywords": ["2.

Studies of forest nitrogen (N) budgets generally measure inputs to the atmosphere in wet and dry precipitation and outputs via hydrologic export. Although denitrification has been shown to be important in many wetland ecosystems, emission of nitrogen oxides from forest soils is an important, and often overlooked, component of an ecosystem nitrogen budget. During one year (2002-2003), emissions of nitric oxide (NO) and nitrous oxide (N2O) were measured from Sessile oak and Norway spruce forest soils in northeast Hungary. Accumulation in small static chambers followed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry detection was used for the estimation of N2O emission flux. Because there are rapid chemical reactions of NO and ozone, small dynamic chambers were used for in situ NO flux measurements. Average soil emissions of NO were 1.2 and 2.1 \uffc2\uffb5gNm-2h-1, and for N2O were 15 and 20 \uffc2\uffb5gNm-2h-1, for spruce and oak soils, respectively. The previously determined nitrogen balance between the atmosphere and the forest ecosystem was re-calculated using these soil emission figures. The total (dry + wet) atmospheric N-deposition to the soil was 1.42 and 1.59gNm-2yr-1 for spruce and oak, respectively, while the soil emissions are 0.14 and 0.20 gNm-2yr-1. Thus, about 10-13% of N compounds deposited to the soil, mostly as NH3/NH4+ and HNO3/NO3-, are transformed in the soil and emitted back to the atmosphere, mostly as a greenhouse gas (N2O).                         </p>", "keywords": ["[PHYS.ASTR.CO] Physics [physics]/Astrophysics [astro-ph]/Cosmology and Extra-Galactic Astrophysics [astro-ph.CO]", "[SDU.OCEAN] Sciences of the Universe [physics]/Ocean", " Atmosphere", "13.

The three treatments included control plot (CK, without crop, fertilization and irrigation), fertilizer N plot (NP) and wheat straw returning plus fertilizer N plot (SN). N-fertilizer application greatly stimulated the emissions of N(2)O, NO(x) and NH(3), with durations of about 10 days for N(2)O and NO, and about 7 days for NH(3). Fertilizer loss rates were 1.08% (NP plot) and 1.20% (SN plot) as N(2)O-N, were 1.93% (NP plot) and 0.76% (SN plot) as NO-N, and were 5.24% (NP plot) and 3.03% (SN plot) as NH(3)-N. In comparison with the NP plot, the significant low fertilizer loss rates as NO-N and NH(3)-N from the SN plot indicated that the wheat straw returning to the field could reduce NO(x) and NH(3) emissions. The molar ratio of NO/N(2)O was greater than unity for most data during the pulse emission periods induced by fertilization, and thus, nitrification was the dominant process for N(2)O and NO emissions during these periods. Considering the significant amount (g80%) of N(2)O and NOx emissions occurred during the pulse emission periods, the emissions of NO(x) and N(2)O from the investigated field were mainly ascribed to nitrification process.

The individual effects on yield and environmental impacts have been studied extensively, but the comprehensive effect when straw returning and domestic sewage irrigation are combined together has seldom been reported. This study was conducted to examine the effects of straw returning and domestic sewage irrigation on rice yields, greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs) and ammonia (NH3) volatilization from paddy fields from 2015 to 2016. The results showed that the rice yield was not affected by the irrigation water sources and straw returning under the same total N input, which was similar in both years. Due to the rich N in the domestic sewage, domestic sewage irrigation could reduce approximately 45.2% of chemical nitrogen fertilizer input without yield loss. Compared to straw removal treatments, straw returning significantly increased the CH4 emissions by approximately 7\u20139-fold under domestic sewage irrigation and 13\u201314-fold under tap water irrigation. Straw returning also increased the N2O emissions under the two irrigation water types. In addition, the seasonal NH3 volatilization loss was significantly increased by 88.8% and 61.2% under straw returning compared to straw removal in 2015 and 2016, respectively. However, domestic sewage irrigation could decrease CH4 emissions by 24.5\u201326.6%, N2O emissions by 37.0\u201339.0% and seasonal NH3 volatilization loss by 27.2\u201328.3% under straw returning compared to tap water irrigation treatments. Global warming potentials (GWP) and greenhouse gas intensities (GHGI) were significantly increased with straw returning compared with those of straw removal, while they were decreased by domestic sewage irrigation under straw returning compared to tap water irrigation. Significant interactions between straw returning and domestic sewage irrigation on NH3 volatilization loss, CH4 and N2O emissions were observed. The results indicate that domestic sewage irrigation combined with straw returning could be an environmentally friendly and resource-saving agricultural management measure for paddy fields with which to reduce the chemical N input, GHG emissions, and NH3 volatilization loss while maintaining high rice productivity.", "keywords": ["2.

However, it has been estimated that 5\u201330% of the urea N is lost as volatilised NH3. Implementation of NH3 mitigation strategies is crucial in order to reduce both the economic and environmental impact associated with NH3 losses from urea application. Urease activity inhibitors and water addition to the soil have been proposed by UNECE (i.e. Gothenburg Protocol) as means to reduce NH3 emission from fertiliser applications. In this study, two field experiments were carried out in order to test the effectiveness of water addition as NH3 mitigation technique from surface applied urea in comparison with the use of the urease inhibitor NBPT. A system of wind tunnels was used to measure NH3 fluxes. Contrasting irrigation strategies (or rainfall patterns), in terms of both rate and timing, were used in order to evaluate the amount of water necessary to achieve a significant NH3 mitigation. The addition of 7 and 14\u00a0mm of water to the soil, immediately after urea spreading, reduced NH3 emission by 77 and 89%, respectively, similar to that achieved using NBPT (77\u201388% reduction). In contrast, a simulated 3\u00a0mm rainfall, immediately after fertilising, significantly enhanced NH3 volatilisation (with an 8% increase in emission compared to urea application without water addition). These results demonstrate the potential of correct water management in abating NH3 volatilisation from urea applications to soil, giving a similar effect to that of the urease inhibitor NBPT under the experimental conditions presented here.", "keywords": ["13.

The effect of a plow tillage (PT) and NT chronosequence on the SR of SOM pools was assessed in an Oxisol in Southern Brazil (50\u00b023\u2032W and 24\u00b036\u2032S).

The objectives of the study were to evaluate the interannual variation of N2O emissions from a maize-wheat rotation, under different fertilizer regimes and to determine the key controlling factors. The study involved four treatments: compost (OM), half compost N plus half inorganic fertilizer-N (HOM), inorganic fertilizer-N (NPK), and control (CK) where no N application. The mean annual N2O emission over a 3-year period was 030 +/- 0.11 kg N2O-N ha(-1) in the CK treatment, but increased to 1.61 +/- 0.10 kg N2O-N ha(-1) in the HOM treatment, 2.13 +/- 0.15 kg N2O-N ha(-1) in the OM treatment, and 2.76 +/- 0.19 kg N2O-N ha(-1) in the NPK treatment. Differences were significant among treatments. The N2O emission factors of the applied OM, NPK and HUM were 0.61 +/- 0.02, 0.82 +/- 0.10 and 0.44 +/- 0.04%, respectively, at a rate of 300 kg N ha(-1) year(-1), indicating that the combined application of compost with inorganic fertilizer significantly reduced N2O emission. Over a maize-wheat rotation year, more than 65% of the annual N2O emission occurred during the maize growing season. There was a large interannual variation in N2O emission in all treatments, albeit not significant either during the maize growing season or at an inter-year scale. This interannual variation was mainly attributable to differences in soil moisture after basal fertilizer application, and irrigation and/or heavy rainfall events immediately following basal fertilization could induce more N2O production than pre-irrigation before plowing. The HOM treatment had higher N fertilizer use efficiency and lowest yield-scaled N2O emissions compared with the OM and NPK treatments. We therefore argue that the combined application of half compost N plus half fertilizer-N will mitigate N2O emissions from soils in the North China plain. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd.

However, uncertainty is associated with the very limited knowledge of gas fluxes in rapidly degrading steppe. In this study, we investigated the effects of grazing on CH4 uptake during the growing season in three types of steppe (meadow steppe, typical steppe and desert steppe and) in Inner Mongolia, China, to quantify and compare CH4 uptake in steppe ecosystems under different grazing management conditions. The CH4 fluxes were measured using an automatic cavity ring-down spectrophotometer at three steppe locations that differed primarily in grazing intensity. The results indicated that steppe soils were CH4 sinks throughout the growing season. CH4 uptake at all sites averaged 7.98 kg CH4-C ha \ufffd 1 yr \ufffd 1 (ranging from 1.53 to 18.74 kg CH4-C ha \ufffd 1 yr \ufffd 1 ), of which approximately 43.8% occurred in the desert steppe. CH4 uptake in the desert steppe increased 20.4% and 51.2% compared with the typical steppe and meadow steppe, respectively. Light grazing (LG) of steppe did not significantly change CH4 uptake compared with un-grazed (UG) steppe, but moderate and heavy grazing (MG, HG) reduced CH4 uptake significantly (by 6.8e37.9%, P < 0.05).

Soil respiration showed both a distinct diel and seasonal dynamics. Soil temperature was the dominant factor influencing diel changes in soil respiration. High summer temperatures could reduce soil respiration due to the probable decrease of microbial respiration. Soil moisture was the driving factor that affected the soil respiration seasonal pattern. Precipitation pulses elicited an intense CO2 release after the pulse ceased. Although soil respiration showed an increase with enhancing N rates in the first year, the positive effects of N24 treatments weakened in the second year and became negative, and effectively toxic in the third. The total carbon production in the growing seasons among different N treatments in 2010 and 2011 also followed this model. In addition, soil respiration was also consistent with fine root biomass in the growing seasons.

N losses and GHG emissions from the paddy field with alternative fertilizer management practices were simultaneously measured. Four treatments were tested in the experiment: applications of only chemical synthetic fertilizer urea (CT), only organic manure (OT), a combination of the two types of fertilizers (MT) and a control (CK).

In this study we explored the implications of two IPCC climate change projections (high and medium emissions scenarios) on N2O emissions from South West England grasslands for the time slices of a baseline, the 2020s, the 2050s and the 2080s, employing a process-based model (SPACSYS). The model was initially calibrated and validated using datasets collected from three grassland sites of the region. Statistical analysis showed that simulated results had no significant total error or bias compared to measured values. We found a consistent increase in N2O emissions of up to 94% under future climate change scenarios compared to those under the baseline, and warming rather than precipitation variability was the overriding factor controlling the N2O rise.

Under moist cool conditions is it possible in the long term to reduce dramatically soil tillage intensity without experiencing reductions in yield or other problems? In 1987, the Swiss Federal Research Station for Agricultural Economics and Engineering in Tanikon initiated a long-term soil tillage trial to clarify these questions. The trial compared mouldboard plough, chisel, paraplow, shallow tillage and no-tillage systems on a well-drained Orthic Luvisol with 160\u00a0g\u00a0kg \u22121  clay, 310\u00a0g\u00a0kg \u22121  silt, and under a climate that has a mean annual precipitation of 1180\u00a0mm. The tillage treatment effects were evaluated by measuring several biological, chemical, and physical soil quality indicators. Reduced soil tillage increased earthworm populations, reduced  Pseudocercosporella herpotrichoides  infection in wheat ( Triticum aestivum ) and increased plant colonisation by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. Yields for no-tillage and other ploughless cultivation techniques were on par with those obtained by ploughing. An exception was direct-drilled maize ( Zea mays ), where no-tillage decreased yield by more than 10% over the course of 14 years. In the first 7 years of the trial, the level of soil organic carbon in all the tillage regimes was approximately 40% lower than natural grassland (initial situation 1987=75\u00a0Mg\u00a0SOC\u00a0ha \u22121 ). The no-tillage method did not differ from the others in respect of bulk density, but it showed an increased preconsolidation stress and hence better trafficability.

In May 1998, the Giessen FACE ( F ree  A ir  C arbon dioxide  E nrichment) experiment started in a grassland ecosystem near Giessen, Germany, consisting of three enrichment (E plots) and three ambient control rings (A plots). Carbon dioxide concentrations were raised to +20% above ambient all-year-round during daylight hours. The wet grassland ( Arrhenatheretum elatioris  Br.-Bl.; not ploughed for >100 years) has been fertilized with 40\u00a0kg\u00a0ha \u22121 \u00a0yr \u22121 \u00a0N, and mown two times each year for decades. Since 1993, the biomass has been monitored and since 1997 it was divided into grasses, legumes and non-leguminous forbs.  During the 5 years prior to CO 2  enrichment, the annual biomass yield from the A plots was non-significantly higher (3%) than the later E plots yield. Under CO 2  enrichment, the biomass increased significantly from the third enrichment year on by 9.8%, 7.7% and 11.2% in the years 2000\u20132002, respectively. The increase was surprisingly high considering the moderate CO 2  enrichment regime of only +20% and sub-optimal N supply, possibly suggesting a non-linear response of temperate grassland ecosystems to rising atmospheric CO 2  levels.  The leaf area index did not change significantly under elevated CO 2 , nor did the soil moisture in the top 15\u00a0cm increase. No correlation existed between the magnitude of the yield stimulation under elevated CO 2  and the precipitation sums preceding the respective harvests. The grass biomass increased significantly under FACE, while the forb biomass declined strongly in the fourth and fifth year.

Furthermore, we analyze the duration of the observed effects. Five FTC were induced by buried heating wires in addition to three naturally occurring FTC during winter 2005/06.

Field edges could play a major role in the maintenance of weed functional diversity in arable landscapes as these habitats still harbour high weed diversity, owing to either a reduced farming management intensity and/or to a spillover of species from adjacent perennial field margins. Here, we investigated the taxonomic and functional characteristics of weed species recorded in surveys of field edges and their associated field cores over six consecutive years in 60 arable fields farmed with five crop management strategies. We found that field edges were richer, with species more functionally diverse and composition more stable over years than field core surveys. The distribution of individual functional traits differed between field edges and field cores, with higher values for seed mass and nitrophily (Ellenberg.N), and a wider distribution of specific leaf area values in field edges. The bimodal distribution of plant height and germination period observed in field edges became unimodal in field cores. Field edges harboured species with ecological strategies associated with field cores (ruderal species) plus a conservative strategy which could be explained by a spillover from the adjacent perennial field margins. Crop management strategies impacted field edge flora, though to a lesser extent than the field core flora whereas the functional differences between the field edge and the field core flora were less marked when crop management intensity was lower. These results indicate that field edges harbour a unique assemblage of species and highly contribute to the maintenance of weed diversity in arable landscapes.

Also, the EU\u2019s Farm to Fork Strategy and the Zero Pollution Action Plan aim for soil protection. However, the status of soil biodiversity protection has not been comprehensively assessed. Therefore, we explored regulatory, incentive-based and knowledge-based instruments and strategic policy documents at the EU and national levels to determine whether they adequately protect soil biodiversity. Our review of 507 literature references concluded that only eight EU member states explicitly address threats to soil biodiversity in 14 regulatory instruments while 13 countries mainly focus on implicit threats to soil biodiversity, whereas six countries do not consider soil biodiversity. At the EU level, current directives and regulations only tackle individual threats to soil biodiversity. An EU-wide, legally binding protection could ensure a standardised minimum level of soil biodiversity protection while preventing surging costs of not acting. The EU Soil Health Law foreseen for 2023 could couple land management practices beneficial for soil biodiversity with incentive-based instruments.

Modifying the vegetation around crops is an effective measure that can increase plant diversity and enhance the abundance and diversity of spider species. In this study, spiders were sampled monthly from May 2006 through April 2008 from tea canopies and ground covers in four tea plantation treatments in Xingchun (27\u00b038\u203251.4\u2033 N and 117\u00b054\u203229.9\u2033 E), which is in the Wuyi Mountains, Fujian Province, Southeastern China. The first tea plantation was intercropped with Paspalum notatum, the second with Cassia rotundifolia, and the third with natural ground cover. All ground cover was removed by hand in the fourth tea plantation. The spiders collected in the tea canopies numbered 21,170 individuals, representing 21 families and 158 species, whereas a total of 978 individual spiders, representing 16 families and 74 species, were collected in the ground cover treatments. Subsequent analysis revealed that Coleosoma octomacutatum (Boesenberg et Strand, 1906), Telamonia bifurcilinea Bosenberg et Strand, 1999, and Erigone sp. 1 were the dominant spider species in these tea plantations. There were no significant differences among cover crop treatments with respect to the species richness, species abundance, or absolute abundance of spiders in either study year. In this work, all fourteen communities sampled had similar types of species abundance distributions, which followed bell-shaped and left-truncated lognormal distributions, with an almost identical modal octave on a log2 scale and a missing zero class.

Consequently, ground vegetation is readily disregarded in the present calculations of the climatic impact of afforestation. However, at the early stages of afforestation vigorous ground vegetation may have a major role in carbon sequestration. The biomass and C stock of ground vegetation and young tree seedlings were examined on an ash-fertilized and afforested cut-away peatland. Six treatments of different mixtures and quantities of wood-ash, peat-ash, biotite or Forest PK-fertilizer were replicated in three plots. Betula pubescens Ehrh. seeds were sown on randomized halves of split plots while the other halves were left unsown. The plant biomass was harvested four growing seasons after the treatments. The live above-ground biomass of ground vegetation on a cut-away peatland was up to two times that of tree seedlings. Furthermore, the below-ground biomass of ground vegetation and tree seedlings was equal to the above-ground biomass, or even greater. In particular, the biomass of mosses multiplied on ash-based fertilized areas compared to the Forest PK-fertilized areas. Our study proved that at the early stages of afforestation ground vegetation was even more important in biomass production and C stock than tree seedlings.

Using a fast pyrolysis centrifuge reactor (PCR) the present study investigated the relation between fast pyrolysis of wheat straw at different reactor temperatures and the short-term degradability of biochar in soil. After 115 days incubation 3\u201312% of the added biochar-C had been emitted as CO2. On average, 90% of the total biochar-C loss occurred within the first 20 days of the experiment, emphasizing the importance of knowing the biochar labile fraction when evaluating a specific biochars C sequestration potential. The pyrolysis temperature influenced the outputs of biochar, bio-oil and syngas significantly, as well as the stability of the biochar produced. Contrary to slow pyrolysis a fast pyrolysis process may result in incomplete conversion of biomass due to limitations to heat transfer and kinetics. In our case chemical analysis of the biochars revealed unconverted cellulosic and hemicellulosic fractions, which in turn were found to be proportional with the short-term biochar degradation in soil. As these labile carbohydrates are rapidly mineralized, their presence lowers the biochar-C sequestration potential. By raising the pyrolysis temperature, biochar with none or low contents of these fractions can be produced, but this will be on the expense of the biochar quantity. The yield of CO2 neutral bio-oil is the other factor to optimize when adjusting the pyrolysis temperature settings to give the overall greatest climate change mitigation effect.", "keywords": ["T Technology (General)", "660", "13.

At the same time, the wet weight of herbaceous, shrubs, and litter was registered within that area. Soil samples were also collected to determine parameters such as bulk density and organic carbon. The above-ground tree biomass (AGB) was quantified by two non-destructive methods. This biomass was expressed from each reservoir studied in t.ha \u22121  and the carbon content was then calculated using a factor of 0.5. Carbon stocks in the ecosystems studied were 162, 92, and 48\u00a0tC.ha \u22121  for Yungas, Chaco, and shrublands, respectively. Our results show that carbon is concentrated in the soil or as AGB. The latter is the most important reservoir in Yungas, while the soil plays this role in the other two, drier environments. In the province of Salta, native forests play a significant role in the mitigation of greenhouse gases. Our results reveal the magnitude of carbon stocks in some characteristic regional native forests, and estimate their carbon sequestration potential. These results could be useful to inform policy makers in charge of negotiations related to conservation and sustainable management of native forests, and be a relevant input for the formulation of more comprehensive land use planning processes in the region.", "keywords": ["0106 biological sciences", "Biomass Density", "Carbon Sequestration", "Mitigation", "https://purl.org/becyt/ford/1.5", "13.

Studies have shown that when biochar is added to soils, it is able to increase yields, improve soil properties, and effectively store carbon for hundreds to thousands of years. This study compared the performance of biochar from five different feedstocks (coffee husks, maize cobs, eucalyptus wood, groundnut shells, and rice husks) produced in a traditional kiln and biochar from two different feedstocks (maize cobs and eucalyptus wood) produced in a downdraft gasifier. This research, conducted at Makerere University in Kampala, Uganda, was aimed at investigating the potential of biochar as a soil amendment in the humid tropics. Biochar samples were combined with undisturbed soil in a 45-day pot experiment to compare effects on maize growth. On average, soils amended with gasifier-produced biochar had higher yields than the unamended soil and soils amended with kiln-produced biochar. Comparing kiln-produced chars from different feedstocks, the coffee husk chars were the most productive. Results indicated that the soluble ash content of the biochar had the greatest influence on soil productivity. Ugandan soils, like most soils in the humid tropics, are strongly acidic (pH\u00a0=\u00a04.7), and the increase in pH caused by the soluble ash in the biochar provided for more favorable growing conditions and higher nutrient availability.", "keywords": ["2.

Excessive corn stover harvesting could have long-term impacts on soil quality. We estimated current and future stover production and evaluated the potential harvestable stover amount (HSA) that could be used for biofuel feedstock in the United States by defining the minimum stover requirement (MSR) associated with the current soil organic carbon (SOC) content, tillage practices, and crop rotation systems. Here we show that the magnitude of the current HSA is limited (31\u00a0Tg\u00a0y\u22121, dry matter) due to the high MSR for maintaining the current SOC content levels of soils that have a high carbon content. An alternative definition of MSR for soils with a moderate level of SOC content could significantly elevate the annual HSA to 68.7\u00a0Tg, or even to 132.2\u00a0Tg if the amount of currently applied manure is counted to partially offset the MSR. In the future, a greater potential for stover feedstock could come from an increase in stover yield, areal harvest index, and/or the total planted area. These results suggest that further field experiments on MSR should be designed to identify differences in MSR magnitude between maintaining SOC content and preventing soil erosion, and to understand the role of current SOC content level in determining MSR from soils with a wide range of carbon contents and climatic conditions.", "keywords": ["2.

A 3 year field experiment was conducted to assess the phosphorus (P) fertilizer value of digestate from biogas production, taking into account soil microbial activity. The input substrate (inputS) and digested substrate (digestS) from a biogas plant using dairy slurry, maize silage and wheat corn, were applied at a rate of 30\u00a0m\u00b3\u00a0ha\u22121 annually. For control, mineral N and K, but no P, were applied in equal amounts with the biogas substrates. Maize was cultivated every year, and the biomass yield and P and N uptake were determined. Soil samples were collected on different sampling dates, and the P contents, pH, organic matter contents and enzyme activity were analyzed. The CO2 efflux was measured biweekly using a portable soil respiration chamber (EGM 4). After 3 years, the P and N uptake increased by 25% in the digestS treatment compared with that of the control but did not differ from that of the inputS treatment. The plant-available P contents were also higher in the inputS- and digestS-amended soil. The fertilizer application did not influence the organic matter content but did influence the enzyme activity in soil. Averaging of all the sampling dates in 2010 and 2011, the activities of dehydrogenase and alkaline phosphatase were 50% lower in the soils that were amended with digestS compared with inputS.
