Nitrous oxide (N2O) is a harmful climate gas. Its effect as a greenhouse gas is 300 times stronger than that of carbon dioxide. Nitrous oxide destroys the ozone layer. In industrial agriculture ...

Microbial biomass stoichiometry and proportion of Fe organic complexes separately shape the heterogeneity of mixotrophic denitrification and net N2O sinks in iron-carbon amended ecological ditch.

N2O emissions have risen by 40 per cent between 1980 and 2020. The authors found that growth rates over the 2020-2022 period were higher than any previous observed year since 1980 when reliable ...

They found that this compound can selectively trap either N2O or nitrogen gas (N2) depending on its crystalline structure, paving the way for a cost-effective N2O/N2 separation technology.

The accurate amount of N2O emitted has been hard to quantify because of spatial and temporal variability. Because variables change constantly due to human activity, weather, and water usage, the ...

Nitrous oxide is a potent greenhouse gas, 300 times more powerful than carbon dioxide. Global emissions of N2O are on the rise as a result of human activities — and their impact on ocean ecosystems.

The majority of greenhouse gas emissions from the Australian agricultural industry in 2020–21 was methane (79 per cent), followed by N2O (18 per cent) and CO2 (4 per cent).
