   Abstract:
   An experimental study was conducted in order to determine the relationship of nitric oxide (NO) consumption to water-filled pore space in soil. A test system that included the capability to blend gases, test soil samples, and analyze off-gases was used to conduct the study. The experimental set consisted of three replicates at five different levels of soil water content and three different levels of soil nitrogen in a sandy loam soil: unamended soil, soil fertilized at 56.2 kg N per ha (50 lb N acre^-1), and soil fertilized at 112.3 kg N per ha (100 lb N acre^-1). The average NO consumption rates were 7.1×10^-13 g-NO cm^-3 soil, 3.5×10^-11 g-NO cm^-3 soil, and 1.5×10^-10 g-NO cm^-3 soil, respectively. © 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
