旱作春玉米冠层及叶片瞬态气体交换及水分利用效率日变化特征 总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3
旱作作物不同尺度瞬态气体交换和水分利用效率同步观测的研究，对于节水高效农业理论研究和生产实践均具有及其重要的意义。该文采用涡度相关技术和LI-COR6400便携式光合作用测定仪测定旱作春玉米灌浆期冠层、叶片瞬时CO2和H2O汽交换速率，并分析其瞬态水分利用效率日变化特征。结果表明，旱作春玉米灌浆期0～100 cm根层土壤相对湿度为40%时，日变化过程中晴日中上部位叶片的光合速率高峰值为1.3 mg·m-2·s-1(29.82 μmol·m-2·s-1)，与同纬度地区灌溉玉米的光合速率高峰值相近；而群体下光合速率高峰值为0.9 mg·m-2·s-1(20.65 μmol·m-2·s-1)，只及同纬度地区灌溉玉米灌浆期光合速率高峰值的54.5%；群体和叶片水分利用效率高峰值分别为0.16 g(CO2)/g(H2O)和0.06 g(CO2)/g(H2O)，正午前后分别维持在0.0055～0.0123 g(CO2)/g(H2O)和0.0113～0.0197 g(CO2)/g(H2O)，叶片尺度的光合速率和水分利用效率在10∶00以后的时段内明显高于群体水平。 相似文献

不同有机物料投入下黄河故道土壤有机碳积累特征的研究 总被引：2，自引：1，他引：1
【目的】黄河故道潮土区土壤有机质含量低、结构差是限制当地作物优质高产的重要问题,通过连续施用不同有机物料,探究不同有机物料投入下,黄河故道区典型土壤的有机质积累特征,为该区土壤的快速固碳提供理论依据和参考方案。【方法】试验共设置7个处理：单施NPK肥作为对照(CK),其他处理在单施NPK肥的基础上增施有机肥6000 kg/hm2 (M1)、有机肥12000 kg/hm2 (M2)、树枝菌渣6000 kg/hm2 (B1)、树枝菌渣12000 kg/hm2 (B2)、秸秆菌渣6000 kg/hm2 (S1)、秸秆菌渣12000 kg/hm2 (S2), 采用随机区组设计。【结果】与CK相比,外源有机物料施入会显著增加玉米产量和有机质含量,增幅范围分别为21.7%～58.3%和37.4%～70.1%,产量的增加直接导致进入土壤的秸秆残渣及根茬碳相应增加38.9 kg/hm2～76.9 kg/hm2,致使 B2处理增产保肥效果最佳。就有机物料种类而言,用量为12000 kg/hm2的树枝菌渣对土壤活性有机质的提升幅度最大,比相同用量的有机肥和秸秆菌渣高26.2%和57.0%,秸秆菌渣的碳库管理指数最高,但与树枝菌渣相比无显著差异。树枝菌渣由于碳氮比高,在土壤中分解慢,相同用量下,矿化消耗的碳量低于秸秆菌渣和有机肥,单位碳投入下的呼吸量比秸秆菌渣和有机肥低42.3%和29.3%。【结论】用量为12000 kg/hm2的树枝菌渣由于碳投入量大,矿化消耗少,对黄河故道潮土有机质提升效果最好,玉米增产最明显。 相似文献

施氮水平对太行山前平原冬小麦-夏玉米轮作体系土壤温室气体通量的影响 总被引：10，自引：4，他引：6
应用静态明箱-气相色谱法对4 个施氮肥水平N0 [0 kg(N)·hm-2]、N200 [200 kg(N)·hm-2]、N400 [400kg(N)·hm-2]、N600 [600 kg(N)·hm-2]的夏玉米-冬小麦季轮作体系2008~2010 年的土壤温室气体(CH4、CO2 和N2O)排放通量进行研究, 同时观测5 cm 土层土壤温度并记录降水量。结果表明: 太行山前平原冬小麦-夏玉米轮作农田生态系统为CH4 吸收汇, CO2 和N2O 排放源。随着氮肥施入量的增加土壤对CH4 的吸收速率降低, 而CO2 和N2O 的排放速率增加。冬小麦季施氮处理土壤对CH4 的吸收速率显著低于无氮肥的N0 处理, 而N600处理土壤CO2 和N2O 排放速率显著高于N0 处理(P<0.05)。施肥和灌溉会直接导致土壤CO2 和N2O 的排放通量增加, 同时土壤对CH4 的吸收峰值减小。土壤温度升高和降水量增加以及干湿交替加剧均会造成N2O 和CO2排放速率增加。同时在持续干燥和低温条件的冬季不施氮处理观测到土壤对N2O 的吸收现象。N0、N200、N400 和N600 处理土壤CH4 年排放总量(kg·hm-2·a-1)分别为-1.42、-0.75、-0.82、-0.92(2008~2009 年)和-2.60、-1.47、-1.35、-1.76(2009~2010 年), N0、N200、N400 和N600 处理土壤CO2 年排放总量(kg·hm-2·a-1)分别为15 597.6、19 345.6、21 455.9、29 012.5(2008~2009 年)和10 317.7、11 474.0、13 983.5、20 639.3(2009~2010年), N0、N200、N400 和N600 处理土壤N2O 年排放总量(kg·hm-2·a-1)分别为1.05、2.16、5.27、6.98(2008~2009年)和1.49、2.31、4.42、5.81(2009~2010 年)。 相似文献

喷杆式喷雾机雾流方向角对药液沉积影响的试验研究 总被引：7，自引：5，他引：7
为了研究喷杆式喷雾机的雾流方向角对靶标上药液沉积量的影响，设置±40°、±30°、±20°、±10°、0° 9个雾流方向角，选用标准扇形雾喷头ST120-015，喷雾压力0.25 MPa，分别以1.18 m/s、0.59 m/s的前进速度，按照150 L/hm2和300 L/hm2的喷量针对水平靶标和垂直靶标进行喷雾试验。试验结果表明，改变雾流方向角会增加药液在水平靶标上的沉积量，药液在中部和下部靶标沉积量的增加程度比上部显著，喷量150 L/hm2和300 L/hm2的最佳喷雾雾流方向角分别为20°和30°；对于垂直靶标，喷量150 L/hm2时改变雾流方向角只会增加上部和下部靶标的药液沉积量，而喷量300 L/hm2时改变雾流方向角会使上、中、下三部分靶标的沉积量都增加，且增加程度一致。当喷量150 L/hm2时垂直靶标的最佳雾流方向角为20°～40°，喷量300 L/hm2时的最佳雾流方向角为30°。试验结果表明喷杆前进速度会对最佳雾流方向角产生影响。 相似文献

我国大豆最佳施肥量和种植密度评价 总被引：3，自引：1，他引：2
施肥量和种植密度是影响大豆高产的重要因素。在收集了大量的大豆试验数据(1998～ 2017年)基础上，通过拟合氮、磷、钾肥用量和种植密度与产量之间的二次函数，得出最佳的施肥量和种植密度，通过逐步回归分析了施肥量和种植密度对大豆产量的影响。结果表明，我国春大豆和夏大豆的产量逐年增加，平均产量分别为 2 610和 2 724 kg/hm2。夏大豆最高产量下的氮、磷、钾肥用量分别为 N 96 kg/hm2、P2O5 80 kg/hm2和K2O 126 kg/hm2；春大豆最高产量下的氮、磷、钾肥用量分别为 N 71 kg/hm2、P2O5 108 kg/hm2和K2O 74 kg/hm2；实现夏、春大豆高产的最佳密度分别为 27万和 34万株/hm2。逐步回归分析显示，磷用量对春大豆产量影响最大，其次为钾肥和密度；在夏大豆产区，密度对产量影响最大，其次为磷肥用量。种植密度是大豆高产的关键因素，春、夏大豆需要提高种植密度获得高产，同时均应注重磷肥施用。 相似文献

好氧堆肥处理厨余垃圾具有规模灵活、参数易调整、工艺适配性高等优点,但存在发酵周期长且易产生污染气体等问题,严重限制了就近就地处理利用的推广。污染气体产生与堆体内氧气供应与利用直接相关,为提高发酵速率、减少污染气体排放,优化厨余垃圾堆肥的工艺参数,该研究采用三因素三水平正交堆肥试验L9（34）,探究粒径、含水率和通风速率三大因素对堆体温度、O2、pH值、EC值、GI值以及污染气体（H2S、NH3、N2O及CH4）的影响。结果表明,当初始物料粒径为0.5～10 mm时能够显著加快堆肥进程,在第11 天时GI值即可达80%以上,有效地缩短了堆肥周期。通过对污染气体做极差以及方差分析发现,物料粒径对H2S排放影响显著,含水率和通风速率对H2S和N2O排放影响显著。综合堆肥周期以及污染气体减排效果,厨余垃圾堆肥最优的工艺参数组合为：初始物料粒径为0.5～10 mm、初始含水率为60%、通风速率为0.2 L/（min·kg−1）,研究结果可为厨余垃圾利用提供参考。 相似文献

不同施肥处理稻田甲烷和氧化亚氮排放特征 总被引：48，自引：14，他引：48
采用静态箱－气相色谱法对长期不同施肥处理(NPKS、CK、NPK和NKM)的稻田CH4和N2O排放进行了观测。结果表明，稻田CH4和N2O排放季节变化规律明显不同，二者排放通量季节变化呈显著负相关(p<0.01)。与单施化肥和CK相比，施用有机肥显著促进CH4排放，排放量最高的NPKS处理早晚稻田排放量分别是：526.68 kg/hm2和1072.92 kg/hm2。对于N2O排放，早稻田各处理间差异不显著，NPK处理排放量最大，为1.48 kg/hm2；晚稻田各处理差异极显著(p<0.01)，NPKS处理排放量最大，为1.40 kg/hm2。晚稻田CH4排放通量和10 cm土层温度及土壤pH值相关极显著(p<0.01)，并与二者存在显著的指数关系。没发现N2O排放通量与温度及pH值间存在显著相关。稻田CH4和N2O排放受多种因素影响，但对全球变暖的贡献率CH4远大于N2O。NPKS处理的增温潜势最大，NPK处理的最小。 相似文献

Staff members of the Department of Botany of Palacký University in Olomouc and Gene Bank Department – Workplace Olomouc, Research Institute of Crop Production in Prague, Czech Republic, conducted an expedition in seven European countries (Austria, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Switzerland) in August/September 1999 to collect wild Lactuca spp. germplasm and study its geographic distribution, ecology and biodiversity. During the mission, more than 600 locations were visited resulting in the collection of 602 seed samples (accessions) of wild Lactuca species and 13 seed samples of related genera (Chondrilla and Mycelis). Lactuca serriola f. serriola, L. serriola f. integrifolia, L. saligna and L. viminea subsp. chondrilliflora were prevalent in southern Europe (Italy, France), however, only L. serriola was common in central and western Europe (Austria, Czech Republic, Germany, Netherlands, Switzerland). The greatest diversity of Lactuca species was found in France, where also the most seed samples (165) were collected. The most characteristic habitats with a high density of Lactuca spp. populations were observed along roads and highways, grassy ditches, ruderal communities, and dust-heaps. Natural infections by powdery mildew (Erysiphe cichoracearum) and downy mildew (Bremia lactucae) on some wild Lactuca spp. were observed. Recent observations concerning the geographic distribution, population structure, habitats, and natural occurrence of diseases of Lactuca spp. are discussed. This assemblage of genetic resources of Lactuca spp. can serve as the basis of future studies of species diversification, spatial population structure, plant microevolution, domestication processes, and genetic variability of host-parasite interactions. 相似文献

Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is a new technique for the analysis of plant material. This study investigates the application of LIBS to pasture-based plant samples. The LIBS measurements were obtained from pelletized pasture samples (100 samples) that had been also analyzed by inductively coupled plasma–optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES) following microwave digestion for calibration and comparison purposes. Comparisons for elements sodium (Na), potassium (K), magnesium (Mg), calcium (Ca), manganese (Mn), iron (Fe), copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), boron (B), phosphorus (P), and sulfur (S) showed that LIBS could be used for almost all the standard profile total elements with concentrations down to low mg/kg levels (observed error of Na: 0.024 percent, K: 0.18 percent, Mg: 0.016 percent, Ca: 0.073 percent, P: 0.017 percent, Mn: 31 mg/kg, Fe: 150 mg/kg, Zn: 6.6 mg/kg, and B: 1.1 mg/kg). Elemental analysis at less than mg/kg levels was not possible using LIBS. The elements S and Cu were particularly difficult to analyze with reliability using LIBS at the concentration levels found in the plant samples. Replacing microwave digestion and subsequent ICP analysis with a direct analysis of dried plant samples using LIBS has the potential to improve the productivity and reduce the cost of testing. 相似文献

We have studied the effect of anaerobically digested (ADMSW) and composted municipal solid waste (CMSW) on mineralization
and foodweb dynamics to verify the hypothesis that ADMSW would immobilize N right after addition to soil in contrast to addition
with CMSW. Another hypothesis was that the mesofauna (enchytraeids and microarthropods) would stimulate N release from the
decomposer community. We measured excretion of -N and urea-N from the mesofauna and hypothesized that enchytraeids would release urea. ADMSW and CMSW were amended to pots
with sandy loam and barley. The pots were divided into treatments with or without mesofauna. Mesofauna, plant N and biomass,
soil N and ergosterol (fungal biomass) were measured over a 113-day period of four equidistant samplings. Soil respiration,
N mineralization and N release by the mesofauna were modelled from concurrent studies. ADMSW- and CMSW-treated soils initially
(<20 days) immobilized N. The amendments did not increase plant growth substantially, and this was probably due to N-limitation
in the early stages of plant growth. Enchytraeid abundance was about three times higher in ADMSW- than CMSW-treated soils,
indicating that ADMSW contained more labile compounds, bacteria, and microfauna. The mesofauna did not affect N-content, but
the cumulated -N excreted by the mesofauna was estimated to be substantial and about one-fifth of total plant N in ADMSW. An explanation
for this discrepancy might be that in the absence of the mesofauna, other members of the detrivore and microbivore community
performed the mesofauna’s function. Neither enchytraeids nor microarthropods excreted urea. 相似文献

“Wicked” problems are those that are complex and that change when solutions are applied. Many conflicts in conservation fall into this category. The study approached the problem of how to constrain the apparent wickedness of a problem in the conservation management of a species by using simple empirical indicators to carry out iterative assessment of the risk to a population and to document how this risk evolves in relation to the addition of new data and the implementation of management actions. Effects of high levels of uncertainty within data and also concerning population structure were examined through stochastic simulation and by exploration of scenarios. Historical trends in the example used, the Steller sea lion, showed rapid declines in abundance in some regions during the 1980s. The current total population is 130,000-150,000 Steller sea lions through Alaska and British Columbia and this number has been stable since about 1990 in spite of regional differences in population dynamics. Regional differences in the sequence of changes in the number of pups and non-pups, suggested that an internal re-distribution of juveniles could have happened between 1980 and 1990. Current productivity also appears close to the long-term mean. Stochastic population projection using various scenarios showed that, based upon this history, the risk of extinction for the population has declined and is below reasonable thresholds for considering the population to be endangered. The trends in risk suggest that management actions taken since 1990 have probably been effective. Consequently, the conservation management objectives for the Steller sea lion are probably being met. The approach provides a mechanism, based upon experience and scenario analysis, for exploring future policy options and may help to constrain the debate amongst stakeholders about the cost-benefit trade-offs associated with different options. 相似文献

Soil-profile distribution of primary and secondary plant-available nutrients under conventional and no tillage 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
Nutrient distributions under no tillage (NT) compared with conventional disk-and-bed tillage (CT) management in the warm, humid region of the southeastern USA need to be assessed so that future placement, quantity, and type of fertilizers can be altered, if necessary, to efficiently match crop demands. We determined soil-profile distributions of pH, N, P, S, K, Ca, Mg, Na, Zn, Fe, Mn, and Cu to a depth of 0.9 m at the end of 8.5 years of continuous CT and NT management on a Weswood silty clay loam (fine, mixed, thermic Fluventic Ustochrept) in southcentral Texas. Most dramatic changes occurred within the 0–0.05 m depth, where soil under NT had lower pH, Fe, and Cu than under CT, but greater P, K, Zn, and Mn. Greater P and K under NT than under CT also occurred below the till-zone (0.15–0.3 m). At a depth of 0–0.3 m, soil under NT contained greater amounts of extractable P, K, Zn, Fe, Mn, and Cu than under CT. Nitrogen fertilization had little effect on nutrient distributions, except resulting in greater extractable K at 0–0.05 m and greater nitrate at 0–0.15 m. Few changes in soil-profile distributions were observed for extractable S, Ca, Mg, and Na. Long-term continuous use of NT on this fine-textured, high-fertility (except for N) soil had no apparent adverse effects on nutrient distributions relative to CT, but enhanced conservation and availability of P, K, Zn, Fe, Mn, and Cu near the soil surface where crop roots proliferate. 相似文献

The responses of tallgrass prairie plant communities and ecosystem processes to fire and grazing are well characterized. However, responses of invertebrate consumer groups, and particularly soil-dwelling organisms, to these disturbances are not well known. At Konza Prairie Biological Station, we sampled soil macroinvertebrates in 1994 and 1999 as part of a long-term experiment designed to examine the effects and interactions of annual fire, mowing, and fertilization (N and P) on prairie soil communities and processes. For nearly all taxa, in both years, responses were characterized by significant treatment interactions, but some general patterns were evident. Introduced European earthworms (Aporrectodea spp. and Octolasion spp.) were most abundant in plots where fire was excluded, and the proportion of the total earthworm community consisting of introduced earthworms was greater in unburned, unmowed, and fertilized plots. Nymphs of two Cicada genera were collected (Cicadetta spp. and Tibicen spp.). Cicadetta nymphs were more abundant in burned plots, but mowing reduced their abundance. Tibicen nymphs were collected almost exclusively from unburned plots. Treatment effects on herbivorous beetle larvae (Scarabaeidae, Elateridae, and Curculionidae) were variable, but nutrient additions (N or P) usually resulted in greater densities, whereas mowing usually resulted in lower densities. Our results suggest that departures from historical disturbance regimes (i.e. frequent fire and grazing) may render soils more susceptible to increased numbers of European earthworms, and that interactions between fire, aboveground biomass removal, and vegetation responses affect the structure and composition of invertebrate communities in tallgrass prairie soils. 相似文献
