The Effect of Fertilizer Application on Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Willow Short Rotation Coppice Systems in Southern Ontario, Canada
(University of Waterloo, 2016-09-27)Willow (Salix spp.) short-rotation coppice (SRC) systems on marginal lands are effective at providing carbon (C) neutral bioenergy. However, nitrogen (N) fertilizer application, used to enhance aboveground biomass productivity, ... -
Evaluating intercropping systems as a sustainable agroecosystem alternative to reduce greenhouse gas emissions
(University of Waterloo, 2018-02-21)Sole crops are commonly used in the most productive agricultural area in Argentina, the Pampas, and represent the biggest land-area in the country, and the most responsible for the release of greenhouse gas emissions to ... -
Soil carbon and nitrogen dynamics and greenhouse gas mitigation in intercrop agroecosystems in Balcarce, Argentina
(University of Waterloo, 2009-01-08)Through appropriate soil and crop residue management, soil can function as a sink for carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) for the mitigation of greenhouse gases (GHG). No research has yet investigated the potential of intercrop ... -
Temporal Variation in Greenhouse Gas Emissions Among Four Different Riparian Land-use Types in Southern Ontario, Canada
(University of Waterloo, 2019-05-13)Forested riparian buffers (RBs) provide various environmental services, such as reducing streambank erosion and sedimentation, creating wildlife habitat, enhancing carbon (C) sequestration, enhancing streamside microclimate, ...
