Observations, data and assessments concerning atmospheric N 2 O are reviewed, in order to present the current state of knowledge on this subject. Background information from microbiology, soil science, and oceanography is provided to facilitate understanding of the complicated processes in soil and water which are responsible for the release of N 2 O to the atmosphere. The problem of increasing use of industrial fertilizers and combustion of fossil fuels is discussed in so far as atmospheric N 2 O is concerned
