Abstract/Contents:"Insight into the temporal and spatial variability of nitrous oxide (Nā‚‚O) fluxes from soils is required to set up efficient sampling protocols of Nā‚‚O fluxes and to set up strategies to reduce Nā‚‚O fluxes. The aim of the present study was to assess the temporal stability of the spatial pattern of Nā‚‚O fluxes along a transect (400 m) on a fertelized sloping grassland soil. Geostatistical analyses of flux chamber measurements over 4 d showed a clear spatial dependency of Nā‚‚O fluxes. The spatial variability of Nā‚‚O fluxes was much higher than the temporal variability during the 4 d. Despite the decreasing magnitude of the fluxes in time, the spatial pattern persisted during 4 d, that is, fluxes were always highest at the steepest part of the transect. The Ā¹āµN natural abundance (Ī“Ā¹āµN) in soil N was significantly correlated with Nā‚‚O fluxes, indicating a long-term effect of N loss as Nā‚‚O on the Ā¹āµN abundance in the soil. It was suggested that topography played a role in the observed spatial patterns of Nā‚‚O fluxes and Ī”Ā¹āµN in soil N. The study showed that despite the persistent spatial pattern of Nā‚‚O fluxes, flux magnitude may strongly fluctuate in time. Therefore, it is often not possible to combine Nā‚‚O flux measurements made at different times in order to obtain enough data for geostatistical analysis."
