Field Measurement of Dinitrogen Fixation and Denitrification

Accurate measurement of the gain and loss of N by plants and soil under field conditions is difficult. Experiments where all aspects of the N pathway have been monitored usually do not account for the gain or loss of N. The most difficult aspect to measure is the loss due to denitrification. Essentially, N not accounted for elsewhere is assumed to have been lost by denitrification. Many techniques are being researched to help overcome this problem with our experimental methods and are reported here.
