The study was carried out in a traditional area of unburned sugar cane in São Paulo state, Brazil. Two levels of N fertilization (0 and 100 kg N ha?1) with no added vinasse and combined with vinasse additions at different times (100 m?3 ha?1 at 3 and 15 days after N fertilization) were evaluated. Methane and N2O fluxes were monitored for 211 days. On average, the soil was a sink for CH4, which was not affected by the treatments. Emissions of N2O were induced by N fertilizer and vinasse applications. For ammonium sulfate, 0.6% of the added N was emitted as N2O, while for vinasse, this ranged from 1.0 to 2.2%. aN fertilizer aSugarcane production1 aALVES, B. J. R.1 aSANTOS, M. A. dos1 aDANTAS, A.
