TURNER REVIEW No. 18. Greenhouse gas fluxes from natural ecosystems

TL;DR: The impact of increasing N deposition on natural ecosystems is poorly understood, and further understanding is required regarding the use of drainage as a management tool, to reduce CH4 emissions from wetlands and to increase GHG sink from the restoration of degraded lands, including saline and sodic soils.

Summer fluxes of atmospheric greenhouse gases N2O, CH4 and CO2 from mangrove soil in South China

TL;DR: The atmospheric fluxes of N(2)O, CH(4) and CO(2), from the soil in four mangrove swamps in Shenzhen and Hong Kong, South China were investigated in the summer of 2008 and were positively correlated with the soil organic carbon, total nitrogen, total phosphate, total iron and NH(4)(+)-N contents, as well as the soil porosity.

Biogenic controls on the air—water carbon dioxide exchange in the Sundarban mangrove environment, northeast coast of Bay of Bengal, India

TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured diurnal and seasonal variations of air-water CO2 exchange in relation to the occurrence of phytoplankton during January-December 2001.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spatial and temporal patterns of methane dynamics in the tropical mangrove dominated estuary, NE coast of Bay of Bengal, India

TL;DR: In this paper, seasonal and spatial variation of dissolved and atmospheric methane (CH 4 ) was measured in the estuaries of the Sundarban mangrove ecosystem from January to December 2003.

Measurements of various sulphur gases in a coastal marine environment

TL;DR: In this article, measurements of several sulphur gases have been made in coastal seawaters (including microlayers) and marine air off Great Yarmouth, U.K., and in a freshwater lake.

Uptake of COS by growing vegetation: A major tropospheric sink

TL;DR: In this paper, the major uptake pathway for COS through open stomata was found to be through soybeans, corn, wheat, and alfalfa, with an estimated annual plant uptake of 0.2-0.6 Tg COS (Tg = 1012 g), this appears to be the largest global sink for this major tropospheric reservoir species.

Gaseous nitrogen losses from plants

TL;DR: In this article, the identification, measurement and understanding of the different loss pathways of N from the plant-soil system are prerequisites in efforts to increase the efficiency of N added to the system through biological and industrial fixation.

Ammonia surface-exchange above an agricultural field in Southeast England

TL;DR: In this article, a micrometeorological method and a chamber method were used to measure ammonia exchange over a mineral-fertilised wheat crop and to monitor the seasonal variation of NH3 under a variety of environmental and soil conditions.
