Abstract
In a global field survey across a wide range of organic soils, the authors find that N2O flux can be predicted by models incorporating soil nitrate concentration (NO3 –), water content and temperature. N2O emission increases with NO3 – and temperature and follows a bell-shaped distribution with water content.
