The emissions of greenhouse gas (GHG) from soils are of significant importance for global warming. The biological and physico-chemical characteristics of soil affect the GHG emissions from soils of different land use types. Methane (CH₄), nitrous oxide (N₂O), and carbon dioxide (CO₂) production...

Understanding the effects of warming on greenhouse gas (GHG, such as N₂O, CH₄ and CO₂) feedbacks to climate change represents the major environmental issue. However, little information is available on how warming effects on GHG fluxes in farmland of North China Plain (NCP). An infrared warming...

Pastoral farming systems have always adapted to the seasonal availability of forage resources and climate variability by moving animals. However, the role of animal mobility as a possible mitigating strategy in response to climate change has not been clearly documented. To understand this role, we...

Nitrous oxide (N₂O) is considered a major contributor to global climate change in addition to carbon dioxide and methane. A significant quantity of N₂O emission originates from agriculture, largely from high rates of fertiliser application. We studied N₂O emissions from wheat field to evaluate the...

Livestock agriculture is a major source of anthropogenic greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, with a substantial proportion of emissions derived from manure management. Accurate estimates of emissions related to management practices and climate are needed for identifying the best approaches to minimize, ...

Vinasse is a residue from bioethanol production that is produced in large quantities in Brazil and Europe and is applied to fields as a source of plant nutrients (fertirrigation). A side effect of this use is greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions during storage and transport in open channels to fields,...

To study the effects of superphosphate (SP) and nitrification inhibitor dicyandiamide (DCD) on NH₃, N₂O and CH₄ emissions, an experiment of straw and sludge co-composting for 34 days was carried out. This research used 60 L sealed fermenter as composting reactor, raw sludge as basic composting...

The organic carbon of permafrost affected soils is receiving particular attention with respect to its fate and potential feedback to global warming. The structural and activity changes of methanogenic communities in the degrading permafrost-affected wetlands on the Tibetan Plateau can serve as...

Mitigating greenhouse gas (GHG: Methane and nitrous oxide) emission from the rice cropland vis-à-vis increasing rice yield is one of the important challenges to the food security and climate change research. N-fertilizer input to the crop land is the key to rice productivity and GHG emission from ...

Agricultural activities emit greenhouse gases (GHGs) and contribute to global warming. Intensive plough tillage (PT), use of agricultural chemicals and the burning of crop residues are major farm activities emitting GHGs. Intensive PT also degrades soil properties by reducing soil organic carbon...
