Abstract

Nitric oxide (NO) plays an important role in tropospheric photochemistry. Biogenic soil emissions of Nitric Oxide were measured from an intensively managed agricultural row crop (corn, Zea mays) during a four-week period (May 15 through June 9, 1995). The site was located in Washington County, near the town of Plymouth, which is in the Lower Coastal Plain of North Carolina, U.S.A. Soil NO flux was determined using a dynamic flow-through chamber technique. The m
