Forest in south China: An important sink for reactive nitrogen and a regional hotspot for N2O?

Lystgass (N2O), en viktig klimagass, har vist økende konsentrasjoner i atmosfæren siden den industrielle revolusjonen. Lystgass dannes i jorda som et bi-produkt ved ulike nitrogen omsetninger. Det er først og fremst den globale intensiveringen av nitrogen omsetninger i jorda, både pga utstrakt br...

Climate change and Chinese agriculture: Effects on food production and options for adaptation

Tidligere studier av sammenhengen mellom klimaendringer og kornproduksjon har det til felles at de baserer seg på data for større regioner. Men ekstremvær rammer vanligvis mindre områder, slik at virkningene på avlinger lett viskes ut på regionnivå. Vi studerte derfor virkningen av ekstremvær bas...
