contents Methane conversion factors from cattle manure in México E. González-Avalos L. G. Ruiz-Suárez Biología México Methane cattle manure methane emissions manure fermentation Methane emission factors from different cattle manure management systems including simulated slurrysystem fermentation were experimentally determined in this and a previous study (González-Avalos andRuiz-Suárez, 2001). Combining results from both studies, we report values for maximum CH4 yield, calledB0, for manure produced by cattle under different production systems and climates, which also implies differentquality of feeds and associated methane conversion factors (MCF) for distinct manure managementsystems. This set of data has the same functionality than that of the current IPCC methodology, but offer awider set of key parameters to estimate methane emissions from manure, which may be of interest in othercountries. In this work, we report MCF can be up to 17.3 times smaller than those suggested in the 1996Revised IPCC Methodology Guidelines (IPCC, 1997) and Good Practice Guidance (IPCC, 2000) 2007 artículo científico 0187-6236 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=56520105 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=565 Atmósfera application/pdf Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México Atmósfera (México) Num.1 Vol.20
