Nitrous oxide, N2O, is the third most important (in global warming terms) of the greenhouse gases, after carbon dioxide and methane. This book describes that although it only comprises 320 parts per billion of the earth's atmosphere, it has a so-called Global Warming Potential nearly 300 times greater than that of carbon dioxide.

Rezension zu „Nitrous Oxide and Climate Change “
'This timely book provides an excellent analysis of the key sources and sinks of the important greenhouse gas nitrous oxide, N2O, and of likely future trends in emissions and the prospects for mitigation. It will be a valuable source of information to audiences ranging from policy makers to professionals in climate change research and environmental science students.' James Galloway, Sidman P. Poole Professor, Dept. Environmental Sciences, University of Virginia, USA; winner of the 2008 Tyler Prize for Environmental Achievement
