Stable N-15 isotope dilution and tracer techniques were used in cultivated (C) and uncultivated (U) ephemeral wetlands in central Saskatchewan, Canada to: (1) quantify gross mineralization and nitrification rates and (2) estimate the relative proportion of N2O emissions from these wetlands that could be attributed to denitrification versus nitrification-related processes. In-field incubation experiments were repeated in early May, mid-June and late July. Mean gross mineralization and nitrification rates (10.3 and 3.1 mg kg(-1) d(-1), respectively) did not differ between C and U wetlands on any given date. Despite these similarities, the mean NH4+ pool size in the U wetlands (17.2mg kg(-1)) was two to three times that of the C wetlands (6.7mg kg(-1)) whereas the mean NO3- pool size in U wetlands (2.2 mg kg(-1)) was less than half that of C wetlands (5.8 mg kg(-1)). Mean N2O emissions from the C wetlands decreased from 112.8 to 17.0 ng N2O m(2) s(-1) from May to July, whereas mean U-wetland N2O emissions ranged only from 31.8 to 51.1 ng N2O m(2) s(-1) over the same period. This trend is correlated to water-filled pore space in C wetlands, demonstrating a soil moisture influence on emissions. Denitrification is generally considered the dominant emitter of N2O under anaerobic conditions, but in the C wetlands, only 49% of the May emissions could be directly attributed to denitrification, decreasing to 29% in July. In contrast, more than 75% of the N2O emissions from the U wetlands arose from denitrification of the soil NO3- pool throughout the season. These land use differences in emission sources and rates should be taken into consideration when planning management strategies for greenhouse gas mitigation. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd.
