Land use legacy effects on N2O emissions

All data presented is collected at the Great Lakes Bioenergy Research Center (GLBRC) Scale-up Experiment of the Michigan State University Kellogg Biological Station (KBS) Long-Term Ecological Research site. The file describes short-term carbon mineralization rates (0-10 cm; 2009 and 2014), and annual and cumulative soil nitrous oxide (N2O-N) fluxes (2010 through 2014) for no-till continuous corn, switchgrass and restored prairie systems. Fields were converted from Conservation Reserve program (CRP) grasslands and/or conventionally tilled corn-soybean rotation row croplands (AGR). Emission factors for direct N2O-N emissions for fertilized systems (corn and switchgrass) are also presented. See associated ‘Read me’ file for more information.
