Biochar for N2O mitigation and improved delivery and retention of mineral nitrogen in compost and soil
Weldon, Simon (PhD Thesis;2022:15, Doctoral thesis, 2022)Biochar is a promising technology for simultaneously storing carbon in soils, improving crop yields and reducing greenhouse gases. In the last 20 years, research efforts into biochar and its application to soils have been ... -
Biochar persistence, priming and microbial responses to pyrolysis temperature series
Budai, Alice; Rasse, Daniel; Lagomarsino, Alessandra; Lerch, Thomas Z.; Paruch, Lisa (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Biochar and its properties can be significantly altered according to how it is produced, and this has ramifications towards how biochar behaves once added to soil. We produced biochars from corncob and miscanthus straw via ... -
Controlled infrared heating of an artic meadow: challenge in the vegetation establishment stage
Moni, Christophe; Silvennoinen, Hanna Marika; Kimball, Bruce A.; Fjelldal, Erling; Brenden, Marius; Burud, Ingunn; Flø, Andreas Svarstad; Rasse, Daniel (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Background: Global warming is going to affect both agricultural production and carbon storage in soil worldwide. Given the complexity of the soil-plant-atmosphere continuum, in situ experiments of climate warming are ... -
Enhancing plant N uptake with biochar-based fertilizers: limitation of sorption and prospects
Rasse, Daniel; Weldon, Simon Mark; Joner, Erik; Joseph, Stephen; Kammann, Claudia I.; Liu, Xiaoyu; O'Toole, Adam; Pan, Genxing; Kocatürk, Pelin Schumacher (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Background Biochar-based fertilizer products (BCF) have been reported to increase both crop yield and N-use efficiency. Such positive effects are often assumed to result from the slow-release of N adsorbed on BCF structures. ... -
Miscanthus Biochar had Limited Effects on Soil Physical Properties, Microbial Biomass, and Grain Yield in a Four-Year Field Experiment in Norway
O'toole, Adam Thomas; Moni, Christophe; Weldon, Simon Mark; Schols, Anne; Carnol, Monique; Bosman, Bernard; Rasse, Daniel (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The application of biochar to soils is a promising technique for increasing soil organic C and offsetting GHG emissions. However, large-scale adoption by farmers will likely require the proof of its utility to improve plant ... -
Persistence in soil of Miscanthus biochar in laboratory and field conditions
Rasse, Daniel; Budai, Alice Erzsébet; O'toole, Adam Thomas; Ma, Xingzhu; Rumpel, Cornelia; Abiven, Samuel (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Evaluating biochars for their persistence in soil under field conditions is an important step towards their implementation for carbon sequestration. Current evaluations might be biased because the vast majority of studies ... -
Preliminary assessment of the knowledge gaps to conserve and increase soil organic carbon stocks
Almås, Åsgeir R.; Eich-Greatorex, Susanne; Tomasgaard, Trine Aulstad Sogn; Mulder, Jan; Pandey, Manoj Kumar; Dauby, Vincent; Powlson, David; Farina, Roberta; Watte, Jeroen; Rasse, Daniel (Journal article, 2024)The main objective of this scoping document, is to deliver an overall roadmap for the EU commission, targeting the soil mission objective “conserving and increasing soil organic carbon stocks”. The objective addresses the ... -
Qualitative evaluation of nine agricultural methods for increasing soil carbon storage in Norway
Budai, Alice Erzsebet; Rasse, Daniel; Cottis, Thomas; Joner, Erik; Martinsen, Vegard; O'Toole, Adam; Riley, Hugh; Rivedal, Synnøve; Stürite, Ievina; Søgaard, Gunnhild; Weldon, Simon Mark; Øpstad, Samson (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Carbon content is a key property of soils with importance for all ecosystem functions. Measures to increase soil carbon storage are suggested with the aim to compensate for agricultural emissions. In Norway, where soils ... -
A re-analysis of NH4 + sorption on biochar: Have expectations been too high?
Weldon, Simon Mark; van der Veen, Bert; Farkas, Eva; Kocatürk Schumacher, Nazli Pelin; Dieguez-Alonso, Alba; Budai, Alice Erzebet; Rasse, Daniel (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022) -
Soil organic matter molecular composition and state of decomposition in three locations of the European Arctic
Pengerud, Annelene; Dignac, Marie-France; Certini, Giacomo; Strand, Line Tau; Forte, Claudia; Rasse, Daniel (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Increased mineralization of the organic matter (OM) stored in permafrost is expected to constitute the largest additional global warming potential from terrestrial ecosystems exposed to a warmer climate. Chemical composition ...
