2 Climate change is not uniform geographically Average T for compared to , degrees C J. Hansen et al., PNAS 103: ( 2006)
3 And T is not the only factor that s changing NCDC, 2000 Effect is not uniform; most places getting wetter, some getting drier.
4 Mitigation and Adaptation to Climate Change By Design Carbon dioxide is primary greenhouse gas, but methane, nitrous oxide, CFC s, ozone, and black soot also contribute to climate change. Significant climate change mitigation benefits Significant climate change mitigation benefits can be derived by reducing nitrous oxide and methane emissions from agriculture.
5 Climate forcing agents in the industrial era. Effective e forcing accounts for efficacy of the forcing mechanism Source: Hansen et al., JGR, 110, D18104, 2005.
6 Inefficiencies in fertilizer nitrogen use offer important opportunities for mitigation of nitrous oxide emissions N Fertilizer Produced N Fertilizer Applied N in Crop N In Feed N in Store N Consumed % of the N produced in the Haber-Bosch process and used for animal production enters the human mouth. Galloway JN and Cowling EB. 20
7 DNDC: A Computer-aided Tool for Precision i Land Management DNDC Reveals the mechanisms that drive ecosystem change by tracking movement of chemical elements between life and its environment DNDC allows users to construct scenarios that benefit land managers and enhance environmental protection. DNDC can stimulate innovation and information sharing relevant to creating better landscape management for people and nature

22 Goal: Predicting impacts of management alternatives on C and N dynamics in terrestrial ecosystems A change in management Climate Vegetation Soil Other management Yield N leaching C storage Trace gas
23 A scenario of best management practices was composed with (1) no-till, (1) increased depth of fertilizer application, (3) three splits of fertilizer application, and (4) non-legume cover crop.
24 Impacts of conventional tillage (CT), no-till (NT) and best management practices (BMP) for a crop field at Story County, Iowa CT NT BMP Unit Fertilizer use kg N/ha Crop pyield kg C/ha dsoc kg C/ha N leaching kg N/ha N2O kg N/ha
25 Summary Precision management of fertilizer use can provide significant reductions in nitrous oxide emissions while maintaining i i crop yields. Co-benefits can include reductions in water pollution that results from leaching of nitrate. Soil carbon and nitrogen must be treated as an integrated management issue to achieve maximum benefits. The DNDC precision management tool can also be applied to the management of timber, pastures, rice, and other landscapes. A market-based fertilizer reduction program could offer a fast-track approach to reductions in nitrous oxide emissions and nitrate pollution.
26 Summary Uncertainties, unclear signals, and long time scales are characteristic of climate, water, and ecosystem interactions. We argue that there is a strong rationale for enhanced policy flexibility and innovation using a portfolio of reactive, adaptive, and precautionary land management strategies.
