Abstract

We present new estimates of global nitrous oxide (N 2 O) emissions for the period 1500–1994 based on revised Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change guidelines [Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), 1997; Mosier et al., 1998]. Use of these estimates as input to a simple atmospheric box model resulted in a closed N 2 O budget over time, showing that increases in atmospheric N 2 O can be primarily attributed to changes in food production systems. We hypothesize that before the ninetheenth century conversion of natural land to agriculture had no net effect on N 2 O. During the twentieth century a fast expansion of agricultural land coupled with intensification of land use may have caused a net increase in N 2 O. In our base scenario the total N 2 O emissions increased from 11 Tg N yr−1 in 1850 to 15 Tg N yr−1 in 1970 and to 18 Tg N yr−1 in 1994.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
