Using the 13 m diameter LEGI-Coriolis rotating platform, the evolution processes of a generated anticyclonic eddy throughout its lifecycle are analyzed. Experimental results have shown that the eddy lasted for approximately 3 T 0 , where T 0 is the rotating period of 90 s. After T = 0.3 T 0 , the eddy enters its mature phase, whereby following this event, eddy intensity slowly decreases from its maximum rotation speed. By T =...

Increasing levels of atmospheric CO 2 are expected to enhance crop yields and alter soil greenhouse gas fluxes from rice paddies. While elevated CO 2 ( ) effects on CH 4 emissions from rice paddies have been studied in some detail, little is known how might affect N 2 O fluxes or yield‐scaled emissions. Here, we report on a multi‐site, multi‐year in‐situ FACE (free‐air CO 2 enrichment) study, aiming to determine N 2 O fluxes a...
