By using static chamber techniques, the N2O emission from soils under different land use patterns was measured. The results showed that the N2O flux ranged from -21 to 435 microg x m(-2) h(-1), and the annual N2O flux was decreased in the order of vegetable field > orchard > upland > upland transferred from paddy field > woodland, being 447.14, 313.57, 167.00, 124.875 and 7.24 mg x m(-2), respectively. The N2O flux presented significant seasonal fluctuation, with the maximum in spring and summer, followed by in autumn, and the minimum in winter, which was approximately consistent with the changes of air- and soil temperature. N2O flux had significant positive correlation with the soil temperature at 5 cm depth and soil NO3(-)-N content, but no significant correlation with soil moisture and NH4(+)-N contents.

Submerged plants (SMPs) play a critical role in improving water quality and reducing NO greenhouse gas emissions. However, freshwater salinization represents a major environmental challenge in aquatic systems. To investigate the impact of salinization on NO emissions, this study conducted indoor mesocosm experiments simulating SMP and nonsubmerged plant (Non_SMP) areas in freshwater lakes.

Wetlands are important carbon sinks for mitigating climate warming. In this paper, greenhouse gas (GHG) fluxes and carbon sequestration capacity of freshwater wetlands, coastal wetlands and constructed wetlands around the world are evaluated, and strategies to improve carbon sequestration by wetlands are proposed based on the main influencing factors. Air temperature and average annual rainfall are significantly positively correlated with CH flux and NO flux in freshwater wetlands and coastal wetlands.

Recent studies have shown that stem fluxes, although highly variable among trees, can alter the strength of the methane (CH) sink or nitrous oxide (NO) source in some forests, but the patterns and magnitudes of these fluxes remain unclear. This study investigated the drivers of subdaily and seasonal variations in stem and soil CH, NO and carbon dioxide (CO) fluxes. CH, NO and CO fluxes were measured continuously for 19 months in individual stems of two tree species, Eperua falcata (Aubl.

Flash drought (FD) events induced by climate change may disrupt the normal hydrological regimes of floodplain lakes and affect the plant-microbe mediated dissimilatory nitrate reduction (DNR), i.e., denitrification, anammox and dissimilatory nitrate reduction to ammonium (DNRA), thus having important consequences for nitrous oxide (NO) emissions and nitrogen (N) retention.

Riverine NO and N fluxes, key components of the global nitrogen budget, are known to be influenced by river size (often represented by average river width), yet the specific mechanisms behind these effects remain unclear. This study examined how environmental and microbial factors influenced sediment NO and N fluxes across rivers with varying widths (2.8 to 2,000 m) in China.
