Characteristics of Soil Profile Greenhouse Gas Concentrations and Fluxes of Alpine Grassland as Affected by Livestock Grazing by Mingyuan Yin, Xiaopeng Gao, Yanyan Li, Yufeng Wu, Wennong Kuang, Fanjiang Zeng

“…Results showed that soil at lower depths (30–60 cm) had higher carbon dioxide (CO₂) concentrations but lower methane (CH₄) concentrations. In contrast, soil profile nitrous oxide (N₂O) concentration did not vary with depth, possibly resulting from the relatively low soil moisture in the semiarid grassland, which increased air diffusivity across the soil profile. …”

Effects of converting cropland to grassland on greenhouse gas emissions from peat and organic-rich soils in temperate and boreal climates: a systematic review by Alena Holzknecht, Magnus Land, Jacynthe Dessureault-Rompré, Lars Elsgaard, Kristiina Lång, Örjan Berglund

“…No significant differences in carbon dioxide (CO2) or methane (CH4) emissions were found. Emissions of nitrous oxide (N2O) from grasslands were found to be 7.55 kg ha−1 y−1 lower than from cropland, however the sensitivity analysis showed that the difference was not robust, making it uncertain whether conversion from cropland to grassland has a significant effect on N2O emissions from organic soils. …”
