Nitrogen Pollution and Greenhouse Gases in Yaqui Valley Streams

Více o knize

The book explores the dual impact of nitrogen fertilizer use, highlighting its role in boosting agricultural yields and preventing food shortages amid population growth. However, it also addresses the environmental consequences, such as coastal pollution and greenhouse gas emissions contributing to climate change. Focusing on the Yaqui Valley drainage system in Sonora, Mexico, the research examines the relationship between fertilizer application and its ecological effects, including biogeochemical transformations of nitrogen and other vital elements.
