Global nitrogen fixation contributes 413 Tg of reactive nitrogen (Nr) to terrestrial and marine
ecosystems annually of which anthropogenic activities are responsible for half, 210 Tg N …

Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), as a reactive oxygen species, is widely generated in many
biological systems. It has been considered as an important signaling molecule that mediates …

Fertilizer nitrogen (N) use is expanding globally to satisfy food, fiber, and fuel demands of a
growing world population. Fertilizer consumers are being asked to improve N use efficiency …

Ruminants excrete as much as 70–95% of the nitrogen (N) they consume. The urine patch is
the conduit through which much of this N is recycled in grazed pasture systems. This chapter …

Production and consumption processes in soils contribute to the global cycles of many trace
gases (CH4, CO, OCS, H2, N2O, and NO) that are relevant for atmospheric chemistry and …

Currently, nitrogen fertilizers are utilized to meet 48% of the total global food demand. The
demand for nitrogen fertilizers is expected to grow as global populations continue to rise …

3, 4-Dimethylpyrazole phosphate (DMPP) is a new nitrification inhibitor with highly
favourable properties. It has undergone thorough toxicology and ecotoxicology tests and …

Research to identify sources of nitrous oxide (N 2 O) in soils has indicated that most, if not
all, of the N 2 O evolved from soils is produced by biological processes and that little, if any …

Submerged soils and the wetlands they support are of huge practical importance: in global
element cycles, as centres of biodiversity, in global food production. They are also uniquely …

Emissions of N2O were measured from different agricultural systems in SE Scotland. N2O
emissions increased temporarily after fertilization of arable crops, cultivation of bare soil …
