Landscape scale assessment of nitrogen interactions Pierre CELLIER, Albert BLEEKER, Eva BØGH, Lutz BREUER, Nicolas BRUEGGEMANN, Tommy DALGAARD, Ulrike DRAGOSITS, Jean-Louis DROUET, Patrick DURAND, Enzo MAGLIULO, Jørgen OLESEN Lech RYSZKOWSKI, Mark THEOBALD, Mark SUTTON INRA (F), ECN (NL), Univ.

  2. How can be seen a landscape with a nitrogen perspective? A patchwork of sources and sinks of N in the natural (fields, forests, natural ecosystems) and « man-made » environments (building, villages, roads) (both largely determined by human activities in the past and present) with a significant fraction of sources and sinks managed by man and possible mitigation on both. Special focus on rural landscapes where large amounts of N are manipulated  agricultural areas with livestock, pigs, poultry, … What are the interactions between these sources and sinks, and the consequences on N2O fluxes?

  9. Transfer of nitrogen by the atmosphere and the hydrology can create delocalized hot-spots of N2O emission (indirect emission) at local scale, and modify the GHG balance atlandscape scale. This is sensitive to the arrangement of landscape elements (farm, vegetation, humid zones, …) Open Science Conference on the GHG Cycle in the Northern Hemisphere, Sissi-Lassithi, Crete, 14th-17th November 2006
