英文摘要 | Croplands that experience seasonal soil freezing and thawing have been shown to be significant sources of N2O emissions. Yet, there is a paucity of year-round N2O emission data for one of the most significant crop production regions that seasonally freeze, the Prairies. Here, we present micrometeorological N2O fluxes measured over 4 years in Saskatchewan, Canada, to evaluate the magnitude of freeze-thaw N2O emissions and investigate its driving factors. Significant thaw related emissions occurred in 2 of the 4 years and were associated with relatively higher fall nitrate levels and a more gradual soil thawing period. Overall, fall soil nitrate levels were a strong explanatory variable for the differences in non-growing season (NGS) N2O emission (r(2) = 0.485). Measured cumulative N2O emissions for the NGS were 123-938 g N ha(-1) and were much smaller than those obtained at other cold climate sites but amounted to 52% of annual totals on average. The November to April period contributed 30% of the annual total emissions in years without major thaw events, but 70% in years with significant thaws. NGS N2O emissions were not explained by cumulative freezing degree days unlike most other cold climate sites. We propose that NGS N2O emissions are more strongly influenced by thaw dynamics during freezing-thawing conditions in dry regions, whereas freezing intensity is the dominant factor for wetter regions. Our results indicate that even for a semi-arid region freeze-thaw is an important source of N2O emissions and must be considered for more accurate reporting and development of mitigation strategies. |
