Nitrogen Deposition Enhances the Positive Contribution of CO₂ Fertilization to China’s Carbon and Water Use Efficiencies

Land, 2023
With climate change, Nitrogen deposition (ND) and carbon dioxide (CO2) have increased significantly, but the effects of ND and CO2 fertilization on carbon-use efficiency (CUE) and water-use efficiency (WUE) are still unclear. Therefore, the effects of ND

Different Post-Sowing Nitrogen Management Approaches Required to Improve Nitrogen and Water Use Efficiency of Canola and Mustard

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Strategic use of nitrogen (N) may improve N use efficiency, but there is limited information on the influence of N supply at crucial growth stages on N accumulation, water use, and water use efficiency of canola and mustard. In this study, we hypothesize
