However, it is still rare to find reports on the total N budgets of agricultural systems including all N fluxes in the literature. Here, we conducted a comprehensive study on the effects of different N fertilizers (control, synthetic fertilizer, 60% synthetic fertilizer N plus 40% pig manure N, pig manure N applied at the same rate of 280 kg N ha−1 yr−1) on N pools, cycling processes, fluxes and total N balances in a subtropical wheat-maize rotation system in China by monitoring in situ N fluxes combined with field 15N-tracer and 15N isotope-dilution techniques. The warm and wet maize season was associated with significantly larger N losses via gaseous and hydrological pathways than the cooler and drier wheat season. Nitrate leaching and NH3 volatilization were the main N loss pathways, accounting for 78% and 93% of the annual hydrological and gaseous N losses, respectively. The field 15N tracing experiment showed that the wheat system had a high N retention capacity (∼50% of 15N application), although the N residence time was short. In the subsequent maize season, 90% of the residual 15N-labeled fertilizer in the soil that had been applied to the wheat system was utilized by plants or lost to the environment. The combined application of synthetic and organic fertilizers (pig manure) or application of pig manure resulted in significantly higher soil N retention and lower NO3− leaching, while yields remained unaffected. However, the application of manure resulted in larger NH3 volatilization losses compared with the application of synthetic fertilizer alone. Thus, our study suggests that a combination of synthetic and organic N fertilizers is suitable for sustaining agricultural productivity while reducing environmental N losses by fostering interactions between the soil C and N cycles. 000811496 536__ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF3-255$$a255 - Terrestrial Systems: From Observation to Prediction (POF3-255)$$cPOF3-255$$fPOF III$$x0 000811496 588__ $$aDataset connected to CrossRef 000811496 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aZhu, Bo$$b1$$eCorresponding author 000811496 7001_ $$0P:(DE-Juel1)142357$$aBrüggemann, Nicolas$$b2 000811496 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aDannenmann, Michael$$b3 000811496 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aWang, Yanqiang$$b4 000811496 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aButterbach-Bahl, Klaus$$b5 000811496 773__ $$0PERI:(DE-600)2013743-6$$a10.1016/j.agee.2016.06.022$$gVol. 231, p. 1 - 14$$p1 - 14$$tAgriculture, ecosystems & environment$$v231$$x0167-8809$$y2016 000811496 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/811496/files/1-s2.0-S016788091630336X-main.pdf$$yRestricted 000811496 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/811496/files/1-s2.0-S016788091630336X-main.gif?subformat=icon$$xicon$$yRestricted 000811496 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/811496/files/1-s2.0-S016788091630336X-main.jpg?subformat=icon-1440$$xicon-1440$$yRestricted 000811496 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/811496/files/1-s2.0-S016788091630336X-main.jpg?subformat=icon-180$$xicon-180$$yRestricted 000811496 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/811496/files/1-s2.0-S016788091630336X-main.jpg?subformat=icon-640$$xicon-640$$yRestricted 000811496 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/811496/files/1-s2.0-S016788091630336X-main.pdf?subformat=pdfa$$xpdfa$$yRestricted 000811496 909CO $$ooai:juser.fz-juelich.de:811496$$pVDB:Earth_Environment$$pVDB 000811496 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)5008462-8$$6P:(DE-Juel1)166012$$aForschungszentrum Jülich$$b0$$kFZJ 000811496 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)5008462-8$$6P:(DE-Juel1)142357$$aForschungszentrum Jülich$$b2$$kFZJ 000811496 9131_ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF3-255$$1G:(DE-HGF)POF3-250$$2G:(DE-HGF)POF3-200$$3G:(DE-HGF)POF3$$4G:(DE-HGF)POF$$aDE-HGF$$bErde und Umwelt$$lTerrestrische Umwelt$$vTerrestrial Systems: From Observation to Prediction$$x0 000811496 9141_ $$y2016 000811496 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0200$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bSCOPUS 000811496 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)1050$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bBIOSIS Previews 000811496 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)1040$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bZoological Record 000811496 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0100$$2StatID$$aJCR$$bAGR ECOSYST ENVIRON : 2014 000811496 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0150$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bWeb of Science Core Collection 000811496 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0110$$2StatID$$aWoS$$bScience Citation Index 000811496 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0111$$2StatID$$aWoS$$bScience Citation Index Expanded 000811496 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)9900$$2StatID$$aIF < 5 000811496 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0550$$2StatID$$aNo Authors Fulltext 000811496 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)1060$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bCurrent Contents - Agriculture, Biology and Environmental Sciences 000811496 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0310$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bNCBI Molecular Biology Database 000811496 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0300$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bMedline 000811496 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0420$$2StatID$$aNationallizenz 000811496 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0199$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bThomson Reuters Master Journal List 000811496 9201_ $$0I:(DE-Juel1)IBG-3-20101118$$kIBG-3$$lAgrosphäre$$x0 000811496 980__ $$ajournal 000811496 980__ $$aVDB 000811496 980__ $$aUNRESTRICTED 000811496 980__ $$aI:(DE-Juel1)IBG-3-20101118
