Four methods were compared for measuring ammonia volatilization losses following urea application (220 kg N/ha) to a forest soil from Vancouver Island: (i) closed-static, (ii) semi-open, (iii) 15N-balance, and (iv) closed-dynamic. The first three methods were used in the field; the fourth in the laboratory. In addition, the effects of two levels of simulated rainfall were assessed with methods ii, iii and iv. Significantly greater amounts of volatile ammonia were measured by each of the following three methods in the order: closed-static (13%) < semi-open (17%) < closed-dynamic (22–26%). The 15N-balance method measured 35–42%, but these values could not be compared directly with the other three methods, because it measures losses from gases other than ammonia alone. The simulated 12-mm rainfall significantly decreased ammonia losses, but did not change the relationship among methods: semi-open < closed-dynamic < 15N-balance for 9, 12 and 22%, respectively. Since estimated ammonia losses (i.e. total minus ...
