A Nonlinear Offset Program to Reduce Nitrous Oxide Emissions Induced by Excessive Nitrogen Application [PDF]
On average, U.S. farmers choose to apply nitrogen fertilizer at a rate that exceeds the ex post agronomically optimal rate. The technology underlying the yield response to nitrogen rewards producers who over apply in years when rainfall is excessive. The

Assessing the balance between greenhouse gases and ammonia emissions from Irish pastures amended with cattle slurry [PDF]
, 2012 Agriculture in Ireland is the main source of ammonia (NH3) and contributes 30% of greenhouse gas emissions (GHG), with the majority of these emissions associated with livestock production.

Preliminary Assessment of Nitrous Oxide Offsets in a Cap and Trade Program [PDF]
Nitrous oxide is a powerful greenhouse gas that is emitted from cropland treated with nitrogen fertilizer. Reducing such emissions through nutrient management might be able to produce offsets for sale in a cap and trade program aimed at reducing ...

Improved prediction of farm nitrous oxide emission through an understanding of the interaction among climate extremes, soil nitrogen dynamics and irrigation water [PDF]
, 2019 Reducing nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from agriculture soils is crucial, as it accounts for 5.6-6.8% of global anthropogenic emissions. This study aims to understand the interaction among climate, soil nitrogen (N) and applied N on N2O emissions from ...

NO2 pollution of the atmosphere and the influence of industrial processes [PDF]
Acta Montanistica Slovaca, 1998 Among nitrogen oxides in atmosphere, the concentration of N2O is the highest (about 306 ppm) and due to the high global warming potential (GWP = 320) nitrous oxide belongs to important greenhouse gases.
