RESUMO

Gaseous losses are considerable in pastures, therefore the utilization of simple and accessible methods to measure them are extremely necessary to evaluate the cycle of N in these systems. This work aimed to determine methods that quantify volatilized NH3 of nitrogenous fertilizers applied to soil which have little interferente in the volatilization processes. Two experiments in a greenhouse from Departamento de Zootecnia of Faculdade de Zootecnia e Engenharia de Alimentos were conducted. Completely randomized experimental design was used with five repetitions. Treatments from the first experiment were: foam absorber at 1, 10, 20 and 30 cm from the ground; paper absorber at 1, 10, 20 and 30 cm from the ground; static semi-open collector and 15N balance (reference method). In the second experiment the treatments used were as follows: foam absorber at 1, 5, 10 and 20 cm from the ground; paper absorber at 1, 5, 10 and 20 cm from the ground; acid absorber at 1, 5 and 10 cm from the ground; static semi-open collector and 15N balance (reference method). Both experiments quantified volatilized N –NH3. N-NH3 losses determined by 15N balance method in experiment 1 were high (73% of the applied N) and none of the evaluated absorbers presented the same N-NH3 volatilization as the 15N balance. These results probably occurred due to the high pH value from the soil and the intense airflow generated by the greenhouse fans what allowed the increase of N-NH3 volatilization and harmed its capitation by the absorbers. In experiment 2, semi-open collector, foam absorber at 1cm, paper absorbers at 1 and 5 cm and acid absorbers at 1; 5 and 10 cm presented equal accumulated values of volatilized N-NH3 as 15N balance, therefore estimating the real N-NH3 accumulated losses (p<0,0001). Foam absorber at 1cm presented curves of N-NH3 losses similar to semi-open collector, considered the reference method to compare N-NH3 losses on each two days during the experimental period.
