Abstract:
Methane (CH4) emissions from stored slurry were successfully measured by a micrometeorological mass balance technique. Emissions during autumn to late winter ranged from 2 to 100 kg CH4-C ha(-1) day(-1). Diurnal variations of CH4 emissions were investigated by measuring emissions at several times during the day, correlated with slurry temperatures at 10 cm depth and successfully modelled with the Arrhenius equation.
