AgronomyThe aim of this study was to explore the effect of biochar on N2O emissions in soils with different pH levels. Soils with five pH levels (4.0, 5.1, 5.8, 6.6, and 7.2) were incubated in two conditions, with 0% biochar (CK) and 1% biochar (BC), for 23 days. N2O emissions were measured at nine time points, and soil chemical properties, AOA-amoA, AOB-amoA,
