Relationship between CH4 and N2O flux from soil and their ambient mixing ratio in a riparian rice-based agroecosystem of tropical region
Abstract
Temporal variations of the ambient mixing ratio of greenhouse gas (CH4 and N2O) in a riparian rice-based agro-ecosystem of tropical region were studied during 2005–2006 in coastal Odisha. The endeavour was made with the hypothesis that the ambient mixing ratio of CH4 and N2O depends on the changes in the flux of CH4 and N2O from the rice fields in the riparian rice ecosystems. A higher ambient
