                      of the CERES-Maize model under nemoral climate conditions.
                      Therefore, this study aims to estimate and compare major
                      soil-plant N cycle parameters in grain maize (Zea mays L.)
                      crop after application of synthetic and different organic
                      fertilizers solely or in combination in nemoral zone maize
                      production, using the Decision Support System for
                      Agrotechnology Transfer (DSSAT) model. Field experiments
                      carried out during 2015, 2016, and 2017 in Akademija
                      (Lithuania) were considered for model calibration and
                      validation. The model was successfully validated for total
                      aboveground biomass (TAB, R2 = .89), grain yield (GY, R2 =
                      .85), and acceptably for leaf area index (LAI, R2 = .57),
                      total plant N uptake (R2 = .61), and residual soil mineral N
                      (R2 = .64). The lower plant N uptake and soil mineral
                      nitrogen (SMN) observed for the pelletized cattle manure
                      (PCM) and green waste compost (GWC) treatments compared to
                      the fertilization with synthetic ammonium nitrate (AN) were
                      successfully captured by the model. Finally, the model
                      provided reasonable predictions of the temporal dynamics of
                      measured soil water content (SWC) and soil temperature. The
                      validated model was further used to provide N loss
                      estimations during the maize growing seasons via leaching
                      and gaseous emissions. The results showed that the
                      CERES-Maize model can successfully be used to simulate maize
                      growth under the extreme climatic conditions of the nemoral
                      zone in combination with different N managements.
                      Nevertheless, additional efforts are needed to verify and
                      fine-tune the model to comprehensively simulate the N cycle,
                      especially losses by drainage water and gaseous emissions.},
