Water regimes strongly impact soil C and N cycling and the associated greenhouse gases (GHGs, i.e., CO, CH and NO).

However, the emissions of NO particularly during amelioration of acidic soils have been rarely studied. We carried out the present study using a rice-rapeseed rotation soil (pH 5.

- * In a lab experiment, dolomite was applied to two different acidic soils, significantly increasing soil pH and resulting in higher CO emissions, particularly at the highest dolomite dose.
- * The increase in CO emissions was linked to higher levels of dissolved organic carbon and microbial biomass in the soils, indicating that microbial activity was boosted by the presence of dolomite rather than direct chemical reactions.
