Nitrogen mineralization and gaseous nitrogen losses from waterlogged and drained organic soils in a black alder (<i>Alnus glutinosa</i> (L.) Gaertn.) forest

Black alder (<i>Alnus glutinosa</i> (L.) Gaertn.) forests on peat soils have been reported to be hotspots for high nitrous oxide (N<sub>2</sub>O) losses. High emissions may be attributed to alternating water tables of peatlands and to the incorporation of high amounts of easi...
