Potential use of nitrification inhibitors for mitigating N2O emission from soils
(2017-12-14)
The use of nitrification inhibitors (NI) to reduce nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions is a promising strategy to improve N fertilizer use efficiency and to help minimize emissions of the climate-relevant ...
Coupled biotic-abiotic mechanisms of nitrous oxide production in soils during nitrification involving the reactive intermediates hydroxylamine and nitrite
(2017-11-22)
Nitrous oxide (N2O) is an important greenhouse gas that can deplete the ozone layer. Microbial nitrification and denitrification have been long considered as the major contributors of soil N2O production. ...
Mainstreaming the ecosystem services approach in strategic environmental assessment of spatial planning in Chile
(2017-10-17)
Spatial planning plays a key role in policy decision-making given its influence on the future changes over the land systems and subsequently on the quality, quantity and spatial distribution of the ecosystem services (ES) ...
Drying front formation in topmost soil layers as evaporative restraint: Non-invasive monitoring by magnetic resonance and numerical simulation
(2017-04-04)
Prediction of soil moisture changes on large scales is of various interests with regard to water resources management. Within this PhD work, different Magnetic Resonance (MR) concepts/apparatus and sequences were applied ...
