Permafrost nitrous oxide emissions observed on a landscape scale using the airborne eddy-covariance method
Year: 2019
Type: article
Abstract: . The microbial by-product nitrous oxide (N2O), a potent greenhouse gas and ozone depleting substance, has conventionally been assumed to have minimal emissions in permafrost regions. This assumption has been questioned by recent in situ studies demonstrating that, in fact, some geologic features in permafrost may have elevated emissions comparable to those of tropical soils. These recent studies, however, along with every known in situ study focused on permafrost N2O fluxes, have used chambers to examine small areas (
