The response of nitrous oxide emissions to saltwater intrusion and nitrogen addition in coastal soils

Coastal wetlands serve an important role in nitrogen (N) and greenhouse balances, but are recognized as a significant source of N₂O. Currently, they are exposed to rapid environmental changes, including increased N load and salinization associated with atmospheric depositions, agricultural runoff, and sea-level rise.  We conducted a laboratory incubation experiment for 10 days, using soils from both saltwater and freshwater wetlands. We applied the full factorial combination of treatments with three levels of N (0, 50, 150 μgN g−1) and two levels of salt (0 and 30 ppt). We measured soil N₂O emissions, inorganic N concentrations, and DOC concentrations before and 1, 3, 5, 7, and 10 days after the treatments.  Before the treatments, N₂O fluxes were negative in both soils, indicating potential sinks of N₂O in low N availability. In high salinity soils, N additions enhanced N₂O emissions regardless of the salt levels, suggesting N being a limiting factor for N2O production. In low salinity soils, saltwater additions decreased both N₂O emissions and DOC concentrations, implying inhibited denitrification due to lack of microbial energy sources. Our findings suggest in the short-term, changes in N load and salinity could influence N₂O balances in coastal soils depending on their initial salinity.
