Overview of shelterbelts
Shelterbelts
A form of agroforestry systems
Provide economic and ecological benefits – control of wind erosion and pesticide drift, enhancement of wildlife and biodiversity, landscape beautification and soil moisture improvement via snow trapment.
Emerging benefits – Mitigation of agricultural greenhouse gas emission, Carbon storage and bioenergy

Why study shelterbelts for GHG reduction?
Microclimate on the leeside is modified (Interactions of soil microbial communities with modified climate)
High organic matter input due to tree litter deposits and wind-blown sediment trapment. Organic carbon in tree biomass is about 24 Mg km-
1 to 104 Mg C km-1 (depending on species and age) Trees are deep rooting and can reduce denitrification and N leaching
Improve understanding, identify inefficiencies, sustain ecosystem health, modelling
Over 600 million shelterbelt tree seedlings distributed around the prairies by PFRA
The impact of shelterbelts on greenhouse gas flux in the Prairies has been less studied - knowledge gap (Impact on greenhouse gas models and inventories)

Objective
Determine the changes in soil properties with distance from shelterbelts Investigate dynamics in GHG fluxes with distance from shelterbelts
Hypothesis
Sheltering effect and root activity of shelterbelts will have varying degrees of effect on GHG emissions at different distances away from shelterbelts

Summary
Shelterbelts provide opportunities for reducing agricultural GHG footprint
Tree roots can take up excess mineral N and soil water thereby reducing CH4 and N losses via denitrification and leaching
CO2 fluxes (soil respiration) decreased with increasing distance from shelterbelts due to improved biological activity and greater SOM content
Fluxes of N2O and CH4 were lowest in shelterbelts but increased with increasing distance from shelterbelts
