Abstract
The disposal of compost on arable soils is expected to be an appropriate method for restoring a large quantity of compost. The potential climatic change as a result of the atmospheric increase of CO2 and N2O leads to the question, if mineralisation and humification due to the disposal of compost effects CO2 and N2O production and release into the atmosphere.
