Nitrous oxide (NO2) is a major atmospheric greenhouse gas. The soil physical properties and fertility will directly affect the production and release of NO2. Alfalfa has the advantages to improve soil physical properties and fertility,and the soil physical and chemical properties variation degree is associated with fixed the number of alfalfa planting years. A static chamber-HPLC method was used to detect NO2 emission fluxes in the fallow field,3,4,and 10 years-aged lucerne (Medicago sativa) field at the Loess Plateau. In addition,the DeNitrification-DeCoposition (DNDC) model was also applied to estimate the NO2 emission variations in our study,which fit pretty well with the measured NO2 emission fluxes. Compared to the fallow field,observed values of the N2O emission increased with the ages of lucerne field. Interestingly,the detected negative NO2 emission values in our analysis were disparate with the model calculations. The time of released NO2 from differently aged lucerne field fluctuated and accumulated highly between 170-240 days during the growing season,the most release was estimated at 210 day in the DNDC model. Although the DNDC model could estimate the NO2 emission fluxes in lucerne field at the Loess Plateau,further parameter modifications are required to include the negative flux emissions in the analysis.
