greenhouse gasmanurenitrous oxideorganicsoilsyntheticMost national GHG inventories estimating direct N 2 O emissions from managed soils rely on a default Tier 1 emission factor (EF 1 ) amounting to 1% of nitrogen inputs. Recent research has, however, demonstrated the potential for refining the EF ...
My superannuation fund has shares in Origin Energy which produces, distributes and burns (in power stations) natural gas and coal seam gas & shares in BHP-Billiton which produces oil, gas and coal – I am pragmatic. It seems the “global warming potential” factor ...

A report prepared by the Task Force on National Greenhouse Gas Inventories (TFI) of the IPCC and accepted by the Panel but not approved in detail Whilst the information in this IPCC Report is believed to be true and accurate at the date of going to press, neither the authors nor the publ...

Also, if the atmosphere is warming, and the emission boundary is expanding, what amount of the new warmth in the atmosphere goes into that emission layer (ie. does it actually get pushed into “colder” and by how much etc?) Again, would like to know the extent to which these mechanism...
Obviously then, things that mute the temperature variation, like the planet’s rotation, cut off efficiently emitting peaks and thus impede emission, and thus raise global mean temperature from the TOA to the surface according to the lapse rate. Things that cause hot spots, like storms, that ...
N: nitrogen, GHG: greenhouse gas; VS: volatile solids, N2O: nitrous oxide, CH4: methane, NH3: ammonia, NO3−: nitrate leaching, MCF: methane conversion factor, GEI: gross energy intake, EF1: emission factor for direct N2O emissions from N inputs to cultivated soils, EFTSP: emission fact...
