From climate-smart agriculture to climate-smart landscapes [PDF]
Background For agricultural systems to achieve climate-smart objectives, including improved food security and rural livelihoods as well as climate change adaptation and mitigation, they often need to be take a landscape approach; they must become ...

Climate-Smart Agriculture and Non-Agricultural Livelihood Transformation [PDF]
Agricultural researchers have developed a number of agricultural technologies and practices, known collectively as climate-smart agriculture (CSA), as part of climate change adaptation and mitigation efforts. Development practitioners invest in scaling these to have a wider impact.

Reactive nitrogen fluxes over peatland and forest ecosystems using micrometeorological measurement techniques [PDF]
Interactions of reactive nitrogen (Nr) compounds between the atmosphere and the earth's surface play a key role in atmospheric chemistry and in understanding nutrient cycling of terrestrial ecosystems.

Gas chromatography vs. quantum cascade laser-based N2O flux measurements using a novel chamber design [PDF]
Recent advances in laser spectrometry offer new opportunities to investigate the soil–atmosphere exchange of nitrous oxide. During two field campaigns conducted at a grassland site and a willow field, we tested the performance of a quantum cascade laser (

Underestimation of denitrification rates from field application of the 15N gas flux method and its correction by gas diffusion modelling [PDF]
Common methods for measuring soil denitrification in situ include monitoring the accumulation of 15N-labelled N2 and N2O evolved from 15N-labelled soil nitrate pool in closed chambers that are placed on the soil surface. Gas diffusion is considered to be
