AB  - This paper presents the results of a field investigation into the effect of 
      rainfall on the diurnal variations of CH(4), CO(2), and N(2)O fluxes at three 
      different sites in a landfill. The three sites were all net sources of CH(4), 
      CO(2), and N(2)O emissions ranging from 4.7-796 mg CH(4)-Cm(-2)h(-1), 131-811 mg 
      CO(2)-Cm(-2)h(-1), and 90.6-2,209 mug N(2)O-Nm(-2)h(-1). CH(4) and N(2)O were 
      generated by anaerobic digestion of waste and by nitrification and 
      denitrification in the cover soil, respectively. Installation of an HDPE (High 
      Density Polyethylene) membrane cover at landfill Site 1 was very effective in 
      controlling CH(4) emissions, and the CH(4) fluxes at that site were 40-50 times 
      lower than those at Site 2 and Site 3. For 36 h following a rainfall event, both 
      CH(4) and N(2)O emissions were significantly correlated with moisture content of 
      the cover soil at the two landfill sites without HDPE membrane cover (p<0.05). 
      When CH(4) and N(2)O fluxes were expressed as CO(2)-equivalent (CO(2)-e) 
      emissions, CH(4) emissions dominated in the three gases after rainfall (96.1% 
      CO(2)-e emissions) and could be expressed by the following equation: 
      Y(CH4)=988.7+41.1X((soil moisture content))-32.2X((soil temperature)) (R(2)=0.73, 
      p<0.05).
