Carbon-sink potential of continuous alfalfa agriculture lowered by short-term nitrous oxide emission events

T. L. Anthony, D. J. Szutu, et al.

Discover how alfalfa, known for its carbon sink capabilities, is secretly a significant source of nitrous oxide emissions! This groundbreaking research by Tyler L. Anthony, Daphne J. Szutu, Joseph G. Verfaillie, Dennis D. Baldocchi, and Whendee L. Silver reveals the intricacies of greenhouse gas fluxes in California's alfalfa agroecosystem and the unexpected impact on climate change mitigation.
