Nonlinear response of N₂O and N₂ emissions to increasing soil nitrate availability in a tropical sugarcane soil

The reduction of the greenhouse gas nitrous oxide (N2O) to dinitrogen (N2) via denitrification and N2O source partitioning between nitrification and denitrification remain major uncertainties in sugarcane systems. We therefore investigated magnitude and product stoichiometry of denitrification and production pathways of N2O from a tropical sugarcane soil in response to increasing soil nitrate (NO3) availability.
