Long-term trajectories of the C footprint of N fertilization in Mediterranean agriculture (Spain, 1860–2018)

Long-term trajectories of the C footprint of N fertilization in Mediterranean agriculture (Spain, 1860–2018)

Synthetic nitrogen (N) fertilization has helped boost agricultural yields, but it is also responsible for direct and indirect greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
