Temperature sensitivity of N2O emissions from fertilized agricultural soils: Mathematical modeling in ecosys
Download2008
N2O emissions have been found to be highly sensitive to soil temperature (T-s) which may cause substantial rises in emissions with rises in Ts expected in most climate change scenarios. Mathematical models used to project changes in emissions during climate change should be able to simulate the...
