Abstract: Crop residue incorporation is a common practice to increase or restore organic matter stocks in agricultural soils. However, this practice often increases emissions of the powerful greenhouse gas nitrous oxide (N$_{2}$O). Previous meta-analyses have linked various biochemical properties of crop residues to N$_{2}$O emissions, but the relationships between these properties have been overlooked, hampering our ability to predict N$_{2}$O emissions from specific residues. Here we combine comprehensive databases for N$_{2}$O emissions from crop resi... (read more)
