Abstract

The authors collect 54 direct N 2 O emission factors (EFds) obtained from 12 sites of Chinese croplands, of which 60% are underestimated by 29% and 30% are overestimated by 50% due to observation shortages. The biases of EFds are corrected and their uncertainties are re‐estimated. Of the 31 site‐scale EFds, 42% are lower by 58% and 26% are higher by 143% than the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change default. Periodically wetting/drying the fields or doubling nitrogen fertilizers may double or even triple an EFd. The direct N 2 O emission from Chinese croplands is estimated at 275 × 10 9 g N 2 O‐N yr−1 in the 1990s, of which ∼20% is due to vegetable cultivation. The great uncertainty of this estimate, −79% to 135%, is overwhelmingly due to the huge uncertainty in estimating EFds (−78 ± 15% to 129 ± 62%). Direct N 2 O emission intensities significantly depend upon the economic situation of the region, implicating a larger potential emission in the future.

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.
