Abstract:Based on rare and original in situ measurements together with published data, we estimate a complete nitrogen (N) budget for a semi-arid Sahelian grazed grassland located in Dahra (Senegal) in 2014 and 2017. Nitrogen inputs include biological fixation, dry and wet atmospheric deposition, and input from livestock manure. Nitrogen outputs include nitric oxide (NO) and nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from soils, NO and ammonia (NH3) emissions from biomass burning, NH3 volatilization from manure, ingestion from live… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
