Abstract:

For 3 years we followed the complete annual cycles of NO and NO$_{2}$ flux rates from soil of a spruce control site, a limed spruce site, and a beech site at the Höglwald Forest, Bavaria, Germany, with high temporal resolution in order to gain detailed information about (1) the impacts of forest type, liming, and atmospheric N input by wet deposition on the magnitude of NO and NO$_{2}$ flux rates and (2) the microbial processes involved in NO production and emission. In addition to identification of seasonal variations of flux rates the huge database allowed calculation of annual mean NO and NO$_{2}$ fluxes with high accuracy and identification of interannual variations of fluxes. The long-term annual mean NO$_{X}$ emission was 61.7 $\mu$g NO$_{X}$ N m$^{-2}$ h$^{-1}$ for the spruce control site, 17.3 $\mu$g NO$_{X}$ N m$^{-^2}$ h${^-1}$ for the limed spruce site, and 4.0 $\mu$g NO$_{X}$ N m$^{-2}$ h$^{-1}$ for the beech site. These extremely high soil NO$_{X}$ emissions from a temperate forest most likely reflect the status of N saturation of the Höglwald Forest as a consequence of year-long heavy atmospheric N input. Multiple regression analyses revealed the following sequence of importance of environmental factors on NO flux: soil temperature to waterfilled pore space to soil NO$^{-}_{3}$ concentrations to soil NH$^{+}_{4}$ concentrations. ... mehr
