![Figure 3 Mean temporal N2O emissions, daily rainfall and soil moisture from A, nil urine; B, autumn urine; C, spring urine treatments. F0, F2 and F4 = fertiliser rates of 0, 200 and 400 kg N ha–1; and U0, UA and US = nil, autumn- and spring-urine applications, respectively. Bold arrows indicate urine + 15N fertiliser application, other arrows indicate split fertiliser applications. Error bars = LSR (5%), error is only shown if LSR is >5, n = 4.

![Figure 4 Mean cumulative recovery of N2O-15N from 15N affected treatments. F0, F2 and F4 denote fertiliser rates of 0, 200 and 400 kg N ha–1; U0, UA and US denote nil, autumn- and spring-urine applications, respectively. Bold arrows indicate urine + 15N fertiliser application, other arrows indicate split 15N fertiliser applications.

![Figure 5 Mean fertiliser contribution to the N2O flux from 15N affected treatments, expressed as a percentage of the total N2O flux. F0, F2 and F4 denote fertiliser rates of 0, 200 and 400 kg N ha–1; U0, UA and US denote nil, autumn- and spring-urine applications, respectively.
