• Synthesizing the evidence of nitrous oxide mitigation practices in agroecosystems

  Open Access•Diego Grados, Klaus Butterbach‐Bahl et al.•ARTICLE•Environmental Research Letters•2022

  Añadir item

  Nitrous oxide (N 2 O) emissions from agricultural soils are the main source of atmospheric N 2 O, a potent greenhouse gas and key ozone-depleting substance. Several agricultural practices with potential to mitigate N 2 O emissions have been tested worldwide. However, to guide policymaking for reducing N 2 O emissions from agricultural soils, it is necessary to better understand the overall performance and variability of mitigation practices and i…

• Soil quality – A critical review

  Open Access•Else K Bünemann, Giulia Bongiorno et al.•ARTICLE•Soil Biology and Biochemistry•2018

  Añadir item

  Sampling and analysis or visual examination of soil to assess its status and use potential is widely practiced from plot to national scales. However, the choice of relevant soil attributes and interpretation of measurements are not straightforward, because of the complexity and site-specificity of soils, legacy effects of previous land use, and trade-offs between ecosystem services. Here we review soil quality and related concepts, in terms of de…

• Biochar boosts tropical but not temperate crop yields

  Open Access•Simon Jeffery, Diego Ábalos et al.•ARTICLE•Environmental Research Letters•2017

  Añadir item

  Applying biochar to soil is thought to have multiple benefits, from helping mitigate climate change [1, 2], to managing waste [3] to conserving soil [4]. Biochar is also widely assumed to boost crop yield [5, 6], but there is controversy regarding the extent and cause of any yield benefit [7]. Here we use a global-scale meta-analysis to show that biochar has, on average, no effect on crop yield in temperate latitudes, yet elicits a 25% average in…
