Short summary
The prediction of the greenhouse gas N2O from natural soils globally is sensitive to the representation of soil water. Factors that regulate nitrogen retention and nitrogen limitation, including fire and biological nitrogen fixation are further influencing the N2O gas production. Responses to warming and CO2 increase are strongly controlled by tropical soils. Therefore extrapolation of mostly extra-tropical field studies the globe warrants caution.
