Increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases (GHGs) are causing global climate change
and decreasing the stability of the climate system. Long-term solutions to climate change will …

Motivated by global and regional challenges in food production and a broader consideration
of ecosystem services, there has been a substantial increase in the demand for integrated …

Nitrous oxide is a potent greenhouse gas and its production is mediated by the soil microbial
processes of denitrification and nitrification. A thorough understanding of denitrification …

Conservation tillage may improve the sustainability of winter wheatbased crop rotations in
the dryland areas of the inland Pacific Northwest (PNW). Intensive tillage systems often bury …

Wheat covers a significant fraction of the US Pacific Northwest (PNW) dryland agriculture.
Past studies have suggested that management practices can differentially affect productivity …

Climate-friendly best management practices for mitigating and adapting to climate change
(cfBMPs) include changes in crop rotation, soil management and resource use. Determined …

With the addition of nitrogen (N), agricultural soils are the main anthropogenic source of
N2O, but high spatial and temporal variabilities make N2O emissions difficult to characterize …

Despite its potential to mitigate many environmental impacts of agriculture, organic farming
does contribute to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. A full accounting and understanding of …

Soils under continuous no-till (NT) often produce stratified soil acidification due to fertilizer
placement and subsequent lack of mixing. Because aluminum (Al) becomes more …

Agricultural soils have the potential to be an important carbon (C) sink with proper
management. The main goal of this study was to characterize C dynamics and net C …
