A Global Greenhouse Gas Monitor
We present an advanced new sensor, the Greenhouse Gas Monitor (GGM), which will revolutionize the global measurement of greenhouse gas levels. The GGM is an ideal compact, passive instrument for deployment on future-generation small LEO satellites. The Kyoto summit on greenhouse gas and carbon emissions has demonstrated the urgent need for accurate, global monitoring of a range of greenhouse ga...
متن کاملA New Estimation of Global Soil Greenhouse Gas Fluxes Using a Simple Data-Oriented Model
Soil greenhouse gas fluxes (particularly CO(2), CH(4), and N(2)O) play important roles in climate change. However, despite the importance of these soil greenhouse gases, the number of reports on global soil greenhouse gas fluxes is limited. Here, new estimates are presented for global soil CO(2) emission (total soil respiration), CH(4) uptake, and N(2)O emission fluxes, using a simple data-orie...
متن کاملGreenhouse Gas Fluxes in Tropical and Temperate Agriculture: the Need for a Full-cost Accounting of Global Warming Potentials
Agriculture’s contribution to radiative forcing is principally through its historical release of carbon in soil and vegetation to the atmosphere and through its contemporary release of nitrous oxide (N2O) and methane (CH4). The sequestration of soil carbon in soils now depleted in soil organic matter is a well-known strategy for mitigating the buildup of CO2 in the atmosphere. Less well-recogni...
متن کاملHuman nitrogen fixation and greenhouse gas emissions: a global assessment
The net impact of human nitrogen (N) fixation on climate (ignoring short-lived components) mainly depends on the magnitude of the warming effect of (direct and indirect) nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions and the cooling effect of N-induced carbon dioxide (CO2) uptake. N-induced CO2 uptake is caused by anthropogenic N deposition which increases net primary production (NPP) in N-limited ecosystems an...
متن کاملBiochar and nitrogen fertilizer alters soil nitrogen dynamics and greenhouse gas fluxes from two temperate soils.
Biochar (BC) application to agricultural soils could potentially sequester recalcitrant C, increase N retention, increase water holding capacity, and decrease greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Biochar addition to soils can alter soil N cycling and in some cases decrease extractable mineral N (NO and NH) and NO emissions. These benefits are not uniformly observed across varying soil types, N ferti...
