Nitrification is a primary driver of nitrous oxide production in laboratory microcosms from different land-use soils

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Most studies on soil N2O emissions have focused either on the quantifying of agricultural N2O fluxes or on the effect of environmental factors on N2O emissions. However very limited information is available on how land-use will affect N2O production, and

Gross N2O Production Process, Not Consumption, Determines the Temperature Sensitivity of Net N2O Emission in Arable Soil Subject to Different Long-Term Fertilization Practices

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Chronic amendment of agricultural soil with synthetic nitrogen fertilization and/or livestock manure has been demonstrated to enhance the feedback intensity of net N2O emission to temperature variation (i.e., temperature sensitivity, TS). Yet few studies

From N2 fixation to N2O emission in a grass-clover mixture [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
In organic dairy farming, a major N input to the plant-soil system comes from biological N2 fixation by pasture legumes, but knowledge is sparse on how much of the fixed N2 is lost from the pastures as N2O.

A One-Hole Cu\u3csub\u3e4\u3c/sub\u3eS Cluster with N\u3csub\u3e2\u3c/sub\u3eO Reductase Activity: A Structural and Functional Model for Cu\u3csub\u3eZ\u3c/sub\u3e [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
During bacterial denitrification, two-electron reduction of N2O occurs at a [Cu4(μ4-S)] catalytic site (CuZ*) embedded within the nitrous oxide reductase (N2OR) enzyme.

A Systemic Model for Understanding Business Interactions With Biodiversity and Ecosystems

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biodiversity loss and ecosystem degradation represent critical threats to human well‐being and economic resilience, challenging businesses to understand and manage their interdependence with natural systems. This study develops a systemic framework—the BioModel—that elucidates the reciprocal relationship between businesses, biodiversity, and ...

Soil Bulk Density and Moisture Content Influence Relative Gas Diffusivity and the Reduction of Nitrogen‐15 Nitrous Oxide

open access: yesVadose Zone Journal, 2014
Nitrous oxide is a greenhouse gas and contributes to stratospheric ozone depletion. Soil physical conditions may influence N2O reduction and subsequent N2O emissions.

Simultaneous Photoactivation of Copper and Ti‐Doped CeO2−x Enables Optimal Acceleration of the RWGS Reaction

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
A combination of visible light and thermal energy accelerates the CO formation rate up to 57 times compared to dark conditions using a 3Cu/CeTiO2−x catalyst. Kinetic analysis, as well as steady state and transient spectroscopy, was applied under photocatalytic conditions to analyze and disentangle the reaction channels under dark and illuminated ...

Intermediate soil acidification induces highest nitrous oxide emissions

open access: yesNature Communications
Global potent greenhouse gas nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from soil are accelerating, with increases in the proportion of reactive nitrogen emitted as N2O, i.e., N2O emission factor (EF). Yet, the primary controls and underlying mechanisms of EFs remain

Sodium Tetraazidoaurate(III)—From Na[AuCl4]·2H2O to Na[Au(N3)4] and Beyond One Step at a Time

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Novel sodium chlorido‐/azidoaurate(III) dihydrates Na[AuCl4–x(N3)x]·2H2O (x = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4) provide the first example of a complete series of gradual substitution on tetramer complex anions to be described. Controlled dehydration of Na[Au(N3)4]·2H2O leads to Na[Au(N3)4]·H2O and Na[Au(N3)4], the latter being a highly explosive material.

Diazotrophs: An Overlooked Sink of N2O

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
The ocean is the second‐largest source of greenhouse gas nitrous oxide (N2O). However, its role as an N2O sink is severely overlooked. N2O fixation by diazotrophs has lately been proposed as a new pathway of N2O consumption.
