 +<P><a class="intext" href="http://www.dndc.sr.unh.edu">DNDC</a> for <B>DeNitrification-DeComposition</B> is a computer simulation model of carbon and nitrogen biogeochemistry in agro-ecosystems.
 +
 +The model can be used for predicting crop growth, soil temperature and moisture regimes, soil carbon dynamics, nitrogen leaching, and emissions of trace gases including nitrous oxide (N2O),
 +
 +nitric oxide (NO), dinitrogen (N2), ammonia (NH3), methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2). At JRC, the DNDC model is currently used by the <a class="intext" href="http://ccu.jrc.it">Climate Change Unit,
 +
 +Greenhouse gases in Agriculture, Forestry and other Land Uses Action</a> of JRC.</P>
 +
 +
 +
 +
 +
 +<P>For represenative combination of crops and soils for each NUTS II regions, DNDC runs were performed, systematically changing mineral and organic application rates, and allowing for irrigation or not.
 +
 +Each run covered 100 years to allow for a stabilization of the carbon and nitrogen content of the soil. The observations from those about 100.000 simulation runs were used to estimate
 +
 +statistical regression models per crop for selected output variables of DNDC:</P>
 +
 +<ul>
 +
 +   <li>Water and nitrogen leached</li>
 +
 +   <li>Gaseous emission of nitrogen: NO, N2, NH3</li>
 +
 +   <li>Water transpirated and water evaporated</li>
 +
 +   <li>Crop yields</li>
 +
 +</ul>
 +
 +
 +
 +<P>using soil and climatic parameters, as well as potential yields and fertilizer application rates as explanatory variables. In more then 70% of the cases, the R2 was above 85% with
 +
 +all variables at a significance level above 0.1%. Given that perfect calibration of the DNDC crop yields at the <a class="intext" HREF="/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=capri:concept:SpatFert">estimated fertilizer application rates</a>
 +
 +to those <a HREF="/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=capri:concept:SpatYields" class="intext">estimated from MARS potential yields and
 +
 +scaled to be consistent to the one observed at NUTS II level</a> would be impossible, the potential yields are re-calibrated in the forecasting step.</P>
