Evaluating the potential for snowmelt phosphorus losses from perennial forage crops

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, EarlyView.
Abstract In cold regions, there is concern that losses of P with snowmelt runoff following freeze and thaw of vegetation may be greater from perennial forages relative to annual crops. We evaluate the drivers of P losses with snowmelt runoff over a network of field‐scale small watersheds in Manitoba, Canada, following annual crops (59 site‐years ...

Nitrous oxide and nitric oxide fluxes differ from tea plantation and tropical forest soils after nitrogen addition

open access: yesFrontiers in Forests and Global Change
South Asia is experiencing a rapid increase in nitrogen (N) pollution which is predicted to continue in the future. One of the possible implications is an increase in gaseous reactive N losses from soil, notably in the form of nitrous oxide (N2O) and ...
