Low N2O and variable CH4 fluxes from tropical forest soils of the Congo Basin

Matti Barthel et al.

Summary: The Congo Basin, the second largest tropical forest region, is not a hotspot of N2O emissions, and different forest types in the region vary in their uptake and release of CH4 and N2O.

Hot spots of opportunity for improved cropland nitrogen management across the United States

Eric D. Roy et al.

Summary: Nitrogen is crucial for crop production, but excessive use can lead to environmental and human health issues globally. The US faces challenges in reducing nitrogen pollution, and understanding the links between cropland nitrogen balances and contributing factors is essential for developing effective policies and programs. Innovative strategies, such as criteria scoring and hot spot analysis, can help identify opportunities for improved nitrogen management in croplands nationwide.

New approach for predicting nitrification and its fraction of N2O emissions in global terrestrial ecosystems

Baobao Pan et al.

Summary: This study successfully predicted nitrification rate and the fraction of nitrification as N2O emissions using data mining and machine learning techniques. The machine-learning based model outperformed traditional process-based models, providing insights for advancing models for projecting N dynamics and greenhouse gas emissions.

Denitrifying pathways dominate nitrous oxide emissions from managed grassland during drought and rewetting

E. Harris et al.

Summary: The study found that under severe drought conditions, denitrification pathways dominated N2O emissions in managed grasslands. Despite high variability in fluxes, denitrification continued to be the main emission pathway during rewetting, indicating feedback between precipitation changes and N2O emission pathways.

In-depth analysis of N2O fluxes in tropical forest soils of the Congo Basin combining isotope and functional gene analysis

Nora Gallarotti et al.

Summary: Primary tropical forests have significant gaseous nitrogen losses, with N2O release being a major concern due to its global warming potential. Studies in the Congo Basin found lower N2O fluxes compared to other tropical regions, and microbial reduction of N2O to N-2 within the soil may explain the observed low surface N2O fluxes.

Global mapping of crop-specific emission factors highlights hotspots of nitrous oxide mitigation

Xiaoqing Cui et al.

Summary: The study finds that the global cropland N2O mitigation potential is limited by uncertainty and variability in direct emission factors (EFs), with most of the potential driven by climatic and edaphic factors and achievable on one-fifth of the global harvested area.

Stable isotope signatures of soil nitrogen on an environmental-geomorphic gradient within the Congo Basin

Simon Baumgartner et al.

Summary: The availability of nitrogen in tropical forests varies greatly at regional and local scales. Different forest types and topographies exhibit distinct differences in nitrogen cycling, with montane forests showing relatively closed nitrogen cycles and lowland forests experiencing more open nitrogen cycles. Soil nitrogen isotope profiles are affected by slope gradients and erosive forces, highlighting the need for more comprehensive studies on nitrogen cycling in tropical forests.

Winter N2O accumulation and emission in sub-boreal grassland soil depend on clover proportion and soil pH

Erin Byers et al.

Summary: The inclusion of legume species in grass leys can reduce nitrogen fertilizer needs but increase the risk of freeze-thaw induced N2O emissions. Red clover was found to produce more N2O and accumulate more N2O under snowpack compared to grass-only plots. Liming exacerbated N2O emissions in red clover plots during freeze-thaw cycles, while grass-clover mixtures emitted less N2O than expected, indicating a need for further studies on off-season functional diversity effects on nitrogen cycling and N2O loss in forage production.
