Resumo

Biochar application has been suggested as a strategy to decrease nitrous oxide emissions from agricultural soils while increasing soil C stocks, especially in tropical regions. Climate change, specifically increasing temperatures, will affect soil environmental conditions and thereby directly influence soil N2O fluxes. Here, we show that Miscanthus giganteus biochar applied at high rates suppresses the typical warming-induced stimulation of N2O emissions. Specifically, in experiments with high biochar addition (25 Mg ha(-1)), N2O emissions under 40 degrees C were equal to or even lower compared to those observed at 20 degrees C. In this sense, the mitigation potential of biochar for N2O emissions might increase under the auspices of climate change. (AU)
