project „NitroEurope“.
Period: 2 years, start in March 2006 with the option for extension of up
to one year.
Tasks: Development of a semi-empirical model based on non-linear
statistics and process knowledge describing the spatio-temporal patterns
of soil-borne N2O emissions in Europe in response to weather, N input
