Figure Lengend Snippet: Fig. 2 Fertilizer-derived N2O emissions and cumulative N2O emissions post-fertilizer applica tion in the fertilizer treatment of 180 kg N ha−1. Mean values are shown for both fertilizer- derived (light and striped portion) and total (the full bar height) N2O emissions. Vertical bars indicate standard error (n = 4). No significant differences in fertilizer-derived N2O emissions were observed among manure treatments (p > 0.05). NM: no manure; LM: liquid manure; CS: chemically-separated solids; PS: physically-separated solids. The data shown here include only the 180 kg N ha−1 treatment (n = 4) and therefore differ from Table 3, where values for each manure treatment are averaged across all fertilizer rates (n = 12)

Techniques: Fertilizer, Derivative Assay
