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

Using near-continuous measurements of N2O emission from urine-affected soil to guide manual gas sampling regimes
TL;DR: In this paper, three short-term field trials were conducted to measure N2O fluxes from urine-affected pasture in southern New Zealand to determine the influence of soil temperature and light on diurnal N 2O variation and the effect of sampling frequency on estimated cumulative N 2 O losses.

Nitrogen and Legumes: A Meta-analysis
S.K. Kakraliya,Ummed Singh,Abhishek Bohra,Kartikeya Choudhary,Sandeep Kumar,Ram Swaroop Meena,M. L. Jat +6 more
TL;DR: The relevance of legumes in this context is enhanced as these crops offer numerous amenities that remain in line with prevalent sustainability principles Legume crops provide protein-rich food, oil and fibre while supplying the 195 Tg N year−1 (also including actinorhizal species) to the agroecosystem through the process of biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) as mentioned in this paper.

Regulated and Non-Regulated Emissions from Euro 6 Diesel, Gasoline and CNG Vehicles under Real-World Driving Conditions
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the on-road emissions of a series of non-regulated pollutants, including NH3, N2O, CH4, and HCHO, measured with a portable FTIR from Euro 6d, Euro 6c and Euro 6D-TEMP, gasoline diesel and compressed natural gas (CNG) vehicles during real-world testing.
