Abstract: Closed chamber measurements of N2O and CH4 fluxes from soybean and maize fields at Shenyang Ecological Experimental Station show that the emission of N2O has significant diurnal and seasonal variations, and mainly occurs in the growing period of crops.N2O is also released from soil during thawing and after harvest.In addition, the net emission of CH4 from soybean and maize fields is very small, and hence, upland field as the sink or source of atmospheric CH4 is not significant.
