Lachgas(N2O)-emission und Kohlenvorrätestoffe landwirtschaftlicher Böden: Messungen und Inventar-Erstellung incl. Systemvergleich ökologische/konventionelle Bewirtschaftung (Project)

The extent of nitrous oxide emissions from and the changes in the soil organic carbon pools of agricultural soils have to be estimated annually depending on the different ways of agricultural land use, in order to fulfil the report duties of Germany due to the Convention on Climate Change and the ?Kyoto? protocol. All regulations regarding the establishment of inventories given hereto in the...

: Monitoring of vertical fluxes of energy, water vapour and trace gases above an arable field including improvements of the methodology applied (Project)

Within the BMBF joint project VERTIKO fluxes of energy and matter between atmosphere and biosphere are determined by measurements and models. At the FAL site, concentration monitoring is performed above arable land of NH3, HNO2, HNO3, SO2 as well as particle-NH4, -NO3 and -SO4.

In-depth review of the outputs of DEFRA`s programme of research on measurements and control of ammonia emissions from agriculture (1998-2002) (Project)

The various research projects funded by the UK Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) to quantify agricultural ammonia emissions and their reduction potential were evaluated with respect to their quality and completeness. Weak points were named and recommendations were given with respect to future funding policy.

Soil properties, carbon and nitrogen turnover in deciduous forest soils with different tree species diversity (Project)

The influence of different deciduous tree species on 1) soil acidity, 2) nutrient recycling via leaf litter and 3) soil C and N dynamics is studied in the Hainich National Park. The project is part of the DFG Research Training Group 1086 'The role of biodiversity for biogeochemical cycles and biotic interactions in temperate deciduous forests'.

NitroEurope - The nitrogen cycle and its influence on the European greenhouse gas balance (Project)

The aim is a comprehensive treatment of emissions, transmission and deposition of nitrogen species in Europe. More than 50 research partners participate. FAL-AOE contributes denuder-filter measurements of concentrations of gases and aerosol constituents.

Effects of tillage and fertilization on nitrogen transformations and N2O emission from arable soils (Project)

The effect of tillage on N transformation processes in soils and the net exchange of greenhouse gases (CO2, N2O, CH4) is studies in long-term field experiments with different tillage systems (ploughing-based and non-plough). The projekt ist part of the DFG Research Training Group 1397 'Regulation of soil organic matter and nutrient turnover in organic agriculture'.

Trace gas fluxes from tropical montane forest soil (Project)

The effect climate, elevation and soil properties on soil-atmosphere fluxes of N2O, NO, and CH4 are analyzed in a tropical mountain ecosystem in Ecuador. Furthermore, the influcence of plant biodiversity and nutrient addition (N and P) on trace gas exchange is studied. The project is part of the DFG Research Unit 816 'Biodiversity and Sustainable Management of a Megadiverse Mountain Ecosystem in...

Unification of area and land use designation of reporting systems LULUC and Forestry with regard to Art. 3.3 and 3.4 Kyoto protocol (Project)

Within the scope of the Kyoto protocol georeferenced designation of land use and land use change areas has to be carried out. In the project the different systems on area designation of the LULUC-sector (georeferenced system, based on ATKIS) and of the forest sector (a statistical system, based on the forest inventory) are merged

Ouantification of uncertainties of land use mapping by high resoluted CIR - air born pictures for improvement of the German LULUC inventory (Project)

There are quantitatively unknown uncertainties by the verification of land use and land-use change using the ATKIS-Data within the scope of LULUCF climate change reporting. These uncertainties are caused in the classification of areas at the survey of land and the time delay at the transfer into the ATKIS. These uncertainties will be quantified within the project using high resoluted CIR - air...

Collaborative project: Identification of molecular markers for BYDV-resistance in maize – Subproject 3 (Project)

Barley yellow dwarf (BYD) is an economically important virus disease in cereals. With increasing winter temperatures, the impact of BYD on maize is expected to increase. The most effective method to control the BYD virus, which is transmitted by aphids, is to breed resistant maize varieties. The results of this study indicated that a BYDV infection had negative impacts on various plant...
