A Global Methane Observation System to Reduce Uncertainty for Anthropogenic and Natural Sources and Sinks for Detecting and Attributing Climate Feedbacks

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Conceptual illustration of a Global Ecosystem Methane Observing System (GEM‐OS) integrating satellites, aircraft, atmospheric networks, and ecosystem measurements to quantify methane emissions from anthropogenic and natural sources. The multi‐scale observing framework improves source attribution, reduces uncertainty in regional methane budgets, and ...

EFFECTS OF GREEN MANURING, FARMYARD MANURE, AND STRAW ON THE ORGANIC MATTER OF SOIL AND OF GREEN MANURING ON AVAILABLE NITROGEN

Journal of Soil Science, 1970
Summary In an experiment on green manuring started at Woburn in 1936, farmyard manure (FYM) was applied in alternate years until 1954 and straw similarly from then until 1963. Various green manures were grown from 1936 to 1953. From 1954 to 1963 ryegrass and trefoil were grown either each year or in alternate years; in 1964 and 1965 ...
