Abstract

A field experiment was conducted to explore the effects of elevated atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) (550 ± 17 μmol mol −1 ) on nitrous oxide (N 2 O) emissions and nitrogen (N) dynamics in a winter-wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cropping system at the free-air CO 2 enrichment (FACE) experimental facility in northern China. Compared to ambient CO 2 (415 ± 16 μmol mol −1 ) condition, elevated CO 2 increased N 2 O emissions by 21–36 % in the winter-wheat field. Under elevated CO 2 , soil total N at both 0–10 and 10–20 cm depths decreased at the ripening stage (RS) and the NH 4 + -N content also decreased at the RS and the grain filling stage (GFS), while soil NO 3 − -N content increased at the booting stage (BS) and RS. Elevated CO 2 increased N concentrations in stem at the GFS, and leaf sheath and glumes at the RS, but decreased N concentration in spike at the GFS. Elevated CO 2 increased N accumulations in leaf and stem at the GFS and in kernel, leaf sheath and glumes at the RS. The analysis shows that more N 2 O would be emitted from this system under the increasing atmospheric CO 2 concentration with the same N fertilizer application rates. Since our results indicate that elevated CO 2 could enhance plant N uptake and N 2 O emissions, more N is likely to be required by winter-wheat cropping systems to maintain current plant and soil N status.
