  1. 1. Underlying mechanisms behind nitrous oxide emissions in oilseed radish, Raphanus sativus var. oleiformis, and Phacelia tanacetifolia

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Plant Breeding (from 130101)

    Author : Annika Swensson Källén; [2023]
    Keywords : nitrous oxide; glucosinolates; greenhouse gases; oilseed radish; Phacelia tanacetifolia; cover crops; labile C;

    Abstract : Greenhouse gases are a driving force of climate change and the annual greenhouse gas emissions were higher between 2010-2019 than any other time in human history (Skea et. al. 2022). READ MORE

  3. 2. Effects of cover crops on nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions in cereal cropping

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Ecology

    Author : Khadija Aziz; [2022]
    Keywords : cover crops; nitrous oxide; C sequestration; greenhouse gases; off-season emissions; freeze-thaw cycles;

    Abstract : More than 60% of anthropogenic nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions are attributed to agricultural activities. N2O production in soils highly depends on the N availability along with other factors such as soil moisture content, which provide suitable conditions for nitrification and denitrification.

  4. 3. Emissions of nitrous oxide associated with frost killed cover crops

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biosystems and Technology (from 130101)

    Author : Felicia Olofsson; [2022]
    Keywords : Nitrous oxide; cover crops; greenhouse gases; freeze-thaw cycles;

    Abstract : Agriculture is responsible for approximately 80% of anthropogenic emissions of the potent and long-lived greenhouse gas nitrous oxide (N2O). N2O emissions from agricultural soils are characterized by high temporal and spatial variability and often peak in short bursts related to events such as precipitation, fertilization and soil thawing.

  5. 4. Complete removal of biomass from oilseed radish as a cover crop decreased nitrous oxide emissions

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biosystems and Technology (from 130101)

    Author : Emma Lövgren; [2022]
    Keywords : Nitrous oxide; cover crops; freeze-thaw cycles; immobilization; oil seed radish;

    Abstract : One of the many benefits of utilizing cover crops in crop rotations is their carbon sequestrating effect. However, frost-sensitive cover crops could emit high levels of the potent greenhouse gas nitrous oxide. READ MORE

  6. 5. Mellangrödors påverkan på viltskador : kan mellangrödor användas som ett verktyg för att minska viltskador i höstsådda grödor?

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biosystems and Technology (from 130101)

    Author : Måns Holmqvist; [2021]
    Keywords : mellangrödor; viltskador; höstsådda grödor; cover crops; game damage; winter crops;

    Abstract : Viltskadorna har blivit ett allt större problem för det svenska lantbruket i takt med att viltstammarna ökar. Att minska viltstammarna genom ökad avskjutning framförs som den snabbaste och effektivaste lösningen. Men det framförs också att viltfodret behöver öka i landskapet då de stora skadorna delvis beror på låg fodertillgång. READ MORE
