Methane, by contrast, is mostly removed from the atmosphere by chemical reaction, persisting for about 12 years. Thus although methane is a potent greenhouse gas, its effect is relatively short-lived. Nitrous oxide is destroyed in the stratosphere and removed from the atmosphere more slowly than ...
What is nitrous oxide and how is it used? Also known as laughing gas or nos, nitrous oxide is a gas that is inhaled, giving the user a short, sharp high. The party drug is second to cannabis as the most commonly misused substance among 16 to 24-year-ol...
The use of nitrogen (N) fertilizer continues to be important for crop production, but the increased recent focus on nitrous oxide (N2O) as a potent greenhouse gas has added new considerations to fertilizer decisions. We present an economic decision framework which includes agricultural and environmen...
Nitrous oxide (N2O, nitrous oxide)is mainly released from soil fertilized with artificial fertilizers or animal manure. Laughing gas is a very strong greenhouse gas: 1 kilo of laughing gas has the same effect as 265 kilos of CO2. Water vaporis also a greenhouse gas. Global warming makes the...

The greenhouse effect is a process by which a planet’s atmosphere traps some of its parent star’s energy. In our case, the Earth is the planet while the Sun is our parent star. The Earth traps some of the Suns heat and subsequently warms up. Greenhouse gases trap the Sun’s energy...

What is the Cause of Greenhouse Effect The main reason for greenhouse effect is the emission of gases like nitrous-oxide, carbon-di-oxide, methane, ozone and water vapor. The causes of these emissions have been listed below. Deforestation ...
Spinal block.In this case, the epidural medication is injected as a shot directly into the spinal fluid in the spinal cord. It generally takes effect more quickly than an epidural block, but the pain relief wears off more quickly, too (usually after one to two hours), because there is no...
