TLDR
In this paper, the ozone depletion potential-weighted anthropogenic emissions of N2O with those of other ozone-depleting substances were compared, and it was shown that N 2O emission currently is the single most important ozone-destroying emission and is expected to remain the largest throughout the 21st century.Abstract:
By comparing the ozone depletion potential-weighted anthropogenic emissions of N2O with those of other ozone-depleting substances, we show that N2O emission currently is the single most important ozone-depleting emission and is expected to remain the largest throughout the 21st century. N2O is unregulated by the Montreal Protocol. Limiting future N2O emissions would enhance the recovery of the ozone layer from its depleted state and would also reduce the anthropogenic forcing of the climate system, representing a win-win for both ozone and climate.read more

Spatial and temporal variations of N2O emissions from global forest and grassland ecosystems
Kerou Zhang,Qiuan Zhu,Jinxun Liu,Meng Wang,Xiaolu Zhou,Mingxu Li,Kefeng Wang,Juhua Ding,Changhui Peng,Changhui Peng +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a process-based dynamic ecosystem model of TRIPLEX-GHG was used to estimate the spatial and temporal patterns of N2O fluxes from global forest and grassland ecosystems under the effects of global warming and elevated CO2 concentrations.

Efficiency of Nitrogen Fertilization of Winter Wheat Depending on Sulfur Fertilization
TL;DR: In this article, a three-year field experiment was conducted to determine the efficiency of fertilization with a new fertilizer available on the Polish market and containing nitrogen (N) and sulfur (S) in proportions designed for cereals cultivation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phosphorus availability and plants alter soil nitrogen retention and loss
TL;DR: Investigation of the effect of P addition with and without plant presence on N2O emission, NO3- leaching and 15N recovery showed that both P addition and plant presence increased N retention in the soil-plant system and thus reduced N loss through leaching.

Simultaneous determination of δ15N and δ18O of N2O and δ13C of CH4 in nanomolar quantities from a single water sample
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a rapid, sensitive, and automated analytical system to simultaneously determine the concentrations and stable isotopic compositions (delta(15)N, delta(18)O, and delta(13)C) of nanomolar quantities of nitrous oxide (N(2)O) and methane (CH(4)) in water, by combining continuous flow isotope ratio mass spectrometry and a helium-sparging system to extract and purify the dissolved gases.
