Dear colleagues, We would like to invite abstract submissions to the AGU Fall Meeting session (Due August 6, 2013) .
B047. N2O fluxes and the role in carbon and nitrogen cycles: processes, measurement, and modeling Conveners: Jianwu Tang, The Ecosystems Center, MBL. jt...@mbl.edu Peter Groffman, Cary Institute of Ecosystem Studies. groffm...@caryinstitute.org Rebecca Ryals, Brown University/MBL. rebecca_ry...@brown.edu Description: Nitrous oxide (N2O) is a powerful greenhouse gas but its global emissions from natural ecosystems, agroecosystems, and urban ecosystems are uncertain. N2O is a product of both nitrification and denitrification processes in soil. There is an emergent need to advance our ability to measure and model N2O fluxes and the underlying mechanism that is critically important in the carbon and nitrogen cycles. This session aims to bring together ecologists, biogeochemists and biometeorologists who use recently developed technologies to measure and model N2O fluxes and the linkage with CO2 and CH4 fluxes from various ecosystems based on eddy-covariance and chamber-based methods and simulation models.
