- Description:
- Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions were estimated using IPCC methodology, data on fertilizer application rates provided by the County of Santa Barbara, and crop types from Cal Ag spatial data. The nitrous oxide emissions from agricultural fertilizer are reported in metric tons of CO2e per 900 square meter pixel.
