Description 1 online resource (xlvi, 337 pages) : illustrations (some color)
Contents Methodology for greenhouse gas emission measurements using non-isotopic techniques -- Automated laboratory and field techniques to determine GHG emissions -- Micrometeorological methods -- Direct and indirect effects of soil fauna, fungi and plants on greenhouse gas fluxes -- Methane emissions from ruminants -- Isotopic techniques to measure N2 and pathways of greenhouse gases -- Climate-smart agriculture practices for greenhouse gas mitigation
Summary This open access book is an outcome of the collaboration between the Soil and Water Management & Crop Nutrition Section, Joint FAO/IAEA Division of Nuclear Techniques in Food and Agriculture, Department of Nuclear Sciences and Applications, International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Vienna, Austria, and the German Science Foundation research unit DASIM (Denitrification in Agricultural Soils: Integrated control and Modelling at various scales) and other institutes. It presents protocols, methodologies and standard operating procedures (SOPs) for measuring GHGs from different agroecosystems and animals using isotopic and related techniques that can also be used to validate climate-smart agricultural practices to mitigate GHGs. The material featured is useful for beginners in the field wanting an overview of the current methodologies, but also for experts who need hands-on descriptions of said methodologies. The book is written in form of a monograph and consists of eight chapters
