By analyzing the experimental data in detail, some results could be outlined as follows: (a) It is soil moisture and temperature instead of N fertilization that determines the seasonal variation pattern of N₂O emission from the rice-based crop rotation ecosystem of southeast China. (b) Soil moisture is the most sensitive factor to regulate N₂O emission from croplands. (c) Explosive emission of N₂O from the rice-based agro-ecosystem was found to happen at the soil moisture within (110±5)% soil water holding capacity or field capacity (SWHC) or (99±9)% water-filled pore space (WFPS). When soil moisture of the rice–wheat fields is less than 105% SWHC, the N₂O emission was observed to increase exponentially vs. soil moisture. In contrast, N₂O emission was found to decrease reciprocally vs. soil moisture more than 115% SWHC. (d) The response of the N₂O emission rate from soils in fields to variations of soil moisture may be well described with a general empirical equation.

A trend analysis was carried out for the 10 yr period for Raleigh. The third quartile average for Raleigh indicated a slight upward trend of about 0.5 parts per billion by volume (ppbv) per year in ozone concentration, but this may not be statistically significant. During the period studied, Raleigh was designated as out of compliance for ozone, with a classification of moderate for non-attainment areas in 1989. There were three exceedences of the National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) of 0.12 parts per million by volume (ppmv) each in 1980, 1983, and 1987; and 13 exceedences in 1988. Based on a regression analysis, it was identified that the variability in ozone concentration in the Raleigh area is best correlated with maximum temperature and solar radiation, and also weakly correlated with daily average wind speed and wind direction. But, the local meteorological parameters could only explain 35–53% of the total variance. A delta ozone analysis was performed to obtain an estimate of the contribution to the production of ozone made by the metropolitan areas of Raleigh and Charlotte, North Carolina. During the summer of 1989, the city of Raleigh provided an average of about 25 ppbv of additional ozone to air advecting over the city. The amount of ozone produced by the metropolitan area of Charlotte for 1984–1991 averaged about 10–15 ppbv with a slight upward trend in ozone production (1.34±0.78 ppbv per year).

Local changes in clouds and radiatively active gas concentrations directly affect the availability of actinic flux which has a direct impact on photochemistry through the photolysis rate constant. The actinic flux was efficiently calculated in each grid cell every model hour by the delta-Eddington radiation scheme of the general circulation model. The spectral resolution of the radiation scheme was 5 nm between 200 and 400 nm, 2 nm between 245 and 350 nm, and 25 nm between 350 and 700 nm.

Distinct seasonal variations both in chemical characteristics of monoterpene emissions and the monoterpene emission rates (normalised to 30°C) were characterised. The normalised monoterpene emission rates showed high emission rates during summer and low rates during other seasons for many <em>Eucalyptus</em> species. For example, the average normalised total monoterpene emission rate on a leaf mass basis (μg g⁻¹ h⁻¹) for <em>E. globulus</em> in summer was 5.4, 2.9 in autumn, 2.3 in spring and 1.5 in winter.
