    This experiment encompassed three treatments with varying water regimes representing irrigated rice with assured flooding and two types of rainfed rice a ffected by droughts. Methane emission was recorded by an automatic closed chamber system facilitating continuous measurements over the entire dry and wet season of 1994. The methane emission rates in the dry season were generally higher than in the wet season; the seasonal patterns of methane emission in the individual treatments showed a high degree of similarity in both seasons. Mid-tillering drainage prompted a pronounced decrease in methane emission rates which was attributed to the influx of oxygen into the soil. Low methane fluxes prevailed even after the field was reflooded. In the other treatments, which were kept flooded during tillering stage, methane emission rates stayed relatively constant. Drainage at 14 days before harvest prompted a short-term increase of methane emission rate which was attributed to a degassing of soi l entrapped methane. In the field that was flooded throughout the growing season, the process of harvesting was also associated with the short-term release of large amounts of methane. The results of this experiment demonstrate that 1) rainfed rice has a lower emission potential than irrigated rice, 2) the impact of droughts on methane emission depends on the actual growing stage the drought occurs, 3) methane emission from rainfed rice will increase with advances gained in water supply, and 4) temporary drainage can be an effective measure to reduce methane emission from rice.

    While dial variations in N2O, NO, and NO2 emissions from soils of measuring sites in Villingen (V) and Schluchsee (S) could not be observed with certainty, seasonal changes were observed. N-emissions in May were significantly higher than in September 91. Volatile N-losses were primarily in the form of N2O, less in the forms of NO and NO2. Soils at both sites were net reductions for NO2. An effect of liming on N-emissions was not yet detected. The additional application of (NH4) 2SO4 to Villingen sites resulted in September in enhanced N-gains compared to the control site. Autotrophic NH4+-oxidizers could not be found at any site. At a few sites autotrophic NO2-oxidizers were detected. Heterotrophic nitrifiers represented a significant part of the total bacterial population. From inhibitory studies on intact soil cores it is concluded that besides denitrification other microbial processes, some of which have not been identified at present, are involved in the N-trace gas emissions observed.
