生物炭和秸秆还田对干旱区玉米农田土壤温室气体通量的影响

为了研究生物炭及秸秆还田对干旱区玉米农田温室气体通量的影响,以内蒙古科尔沁地区玉米农田为试验对象,采用静态箱-气相色谱法对分别施入生物炭0 t·hm^-2（CK）、15 t·hm^-2（C15）、30 t·hm^-2（C30）、45 t·hm^-2（C45）及秸秆还田（SNPK）的土壤进行温室气体（CO₂、CH₄和N₂O）通量的原位观测,并估算生长季CH₄和N₂O的综合增温潜势（GWP）与排放强度（GHGI）。结果表明：添加生物炭能够显著减少土壤CO₂和N₂O的排放量,并促进土壤对CH₄的吸收作用。其中处理C15对CO₂的减排效果最好,与对照相比CO₂排放量降低21.16%。随着施入生物炭量的增加,生物炭对N₂O排放的抑制作用不断增强,处理C45对减排效果最好,与对照相比N₂O排放量降低86.25%。处理C15对土壤吸收CH₄的促进效果最好,CH₄吸收量增加56.62%;处理C45对CH₄的排放有促进作用,使生长季土壤吸收CH₄减少81.36%。SNPK对温室气体的减排作用接近处理C15。添加生物炭和秸秆还田对提高玉米产量和降低农田GWP与GHGI均有显著效果,施用生物炭及秸秆还田均有效提高了科尔沁地区的玉米产量,且玉米产量随着施入生物炭含量的增大而提升。从GWP上来看,施用15 t·hm^-2生物炭对温室气体减排的整体效果最好。从GHGI上来看,施用生物炭及秸秆还田均具有一定的经济效益和减排意义,其中施用15 t·hm^-2生物炭的综合效益最高。因此综合经济效益与环境因素,建议科尔沁地区农田在种植玉米时添加15 t·hm^-2生物炭,如不具备购买生物炭条件,可以考虑秸秆还田来实现玉米增产与温室气体减排。     

稻鸭共作对不同栽培环境稻季CH4和N2O排放的影响

稻田是大气温室气体甲烷(CH₄)和氧化亚氮(N₂O)的重要排放源, 稻田温室气体减排一直是生态农业研究的热点。目前, 采用水稻品种选择利用、水分控制管理、肥料运筹管理、耕作制度调整以及种养结合模式等方法来减少稻田温室气体排放有较好实践效应, 但不同稻田栽培环境(露地、网室)基础上的稻鸭共作对麦秸全量还田的稻田温室气体排放特征及相关土壤理化特性关联性的影响尚为少见。本研究采用裂区设计, 在两种栽培环境条件下, 以无鸭子放养的常规稻作和麦秸不还田为对照, 在等养分条件下分析麦秸全量还田与稻鸭共作模式对稻田土壤氧化还原电位、CH₄排放量、产CH₄潜力及CH₄氧化能力、N₂O排放量及N₂O排放高峰期土壤反硝化酶活性、全球增温潜势、水稻产量的影响, 为稻田可持续生产和温室气体减排提供参考。结果表明, 麦秆还田增加了稻田产CH₄潜力、提高了CH₄排放量, 降低了稻田土壤反硝化酶活性、土壤氧化还原电位和N₂O排放量, 整体上导致全球增温潜势上升96.89%~123.02%; 稻鸭共作模式, 由于鸭子的不间断活动提高了稻田土壤氧化还原电位, 降低了稻田产CH₄潜力, 增强了稻田CH₄氧化能力, 从而降低稻田CH₄排放量, N₂O排放量虽有提高, 整体上稻鸭共作模式的全球增温潜势较无鸭常规稻田下降8.72%~14.18%; 网室栽培模式显著提高了稻田土壤氧化还原电位, 降低稻田产CH₄潜力、CH₄氧化能力和土壤反硝化酶活性, 减少了稻田CH₄和N₂O排放量, 全球增温潜势降低6.35%~13.14%。本试验条件下, 稻田土壤的CH₄氧化能力是产CH₄潜力的2.21~3.81倍; 相同环境条件下, 稻鸭共作和麦秸还田均能增加水稻实际产量, 网室栽培的所有处理较相应的露地栽培减少了水稻实际产量1.19%~5.48%。本试验表明, 稻鸭共作和网室栽培可减缓全球增温潜势, 稻鸭共作和麦秸还田能够增加水稻实际产量。     

三江平原寒地稻田CH4、N2O排放特征及排放量估算

利用静态暗箱-气相色谱法,于2003-2006年对三江平原寒地稻田CH₄、N₂O通量进行了为期4年的田间原位观测研究。结果表明：三江平原寒地稻田CH₄和N₂O排放具有明显的季节变化,水稻生长季淹水期是CH₄排放的强源,稻田排水后CH₄排放显著下降,休闲期CH₄排放微弱或呈弱吸收汇,整个生长季CH₄排放呈现单峰型态,并随水稻植株生长和叶面积指数而变化;水稻生长季和休闲期N₂O排放通量都很小,冬季休闲期有时还出现微弱的吸收现象。生长季一般在施肥和表土落干时都会出现不同强度的排放峰,除了几次比较显著的排放峰值外,其它淹水状态下N₂O排放很弱;温度和土壤水分状况是影响稻田CH₄和N₂O排放的重要因子,稻田积水深度和气体排放无明显的相关性;水稻植株对稻田土壤CH₄排放起促进作用而对稻田土壤N₂O排放起抑制作用;稻田氮肥用量增加可以降低土壤CH₄排放,但却增加了N₂O的排放。根据试验数据对三江平原地区寒地稻田CH₄和N₂O排放总量估算值分别为0.1035 Tg/a和 0.0021 Tg/a。     

有机物料还田对冬小麦农田土壤温室气体排放影响的研究

探讨有机物料还田对冬小麦田温室气体排放特性的影响,对提高经济效应和环境效应有积极意义。本研究应用静态箱-气相色谱法对秸秆还田（J）、秸秆还田+牛粪（JF）和秸秆还田+菌渣（JZ）3种有机物料还田下分别施氮肥243 kg （N）·hm^-2（减氮10%,N1）、216 kg （N）·hm^-2（减氮20%,N2）对冬小麦农田N₂O、CO₂和CH₄的排放通量进行监测,探讨了不同施肥措施对麦田温室气体累积排放量、增温潜势的影响。试验期间同步记录每项农事活动机械燃油量、施肥量和灌溉量,测定产量,地上部生物量,估算农田碳截留。结果表明,冬小麦农田土壤N₂O和CO₂是排放源,是CH₄的吸收汇,氮肥施入、灌溉以及强降水促进了土壤N₂O和CO₂的生成,却弱化了CH₄作为大气吸收汇的特征。牛粪+秸秆（JF）处理N₂O和CO₂排放总量最高,分别为3.5 kg （N₂O-N）·hm^-2和19 689.67 kg （CO₂-C）·hm^-2,但CH₄的吸收值最大,为5.33 kg （CH₄-C）·hm^-2,均显著高于菌渣+秸秆（JZ）和秸秆（J）处理（P<0.05）;各处理N₂O和CO₂的总量随施氮量的增加呈升高趋势,CH₄的总量随施氮量的增加而呈降低趋势。JFN2、JN2和JZN2处理农田综合增温潜势（GWP）均为负值,表明有机物料还田且减氮20%条件下农田生态系统为大气的碳汇,麦季净截留碳1 038~2 024 kg·hm^-2,其他处理GWP值均为正。JZN2处理小麦产量为8 061 kg·hm^-2,显著高于JFN2处理（P<0.05）。综上所述,JZN2处理不仅能够保证小麦产量,且对环境效应最有利,为本区域冬小麦较优的施肥管理模式。     

不同施肥处理稻田甲烷和氧化亚氮排放特征

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。     

田间老化生物质炭减缓稻麦轮作系统土壤N2O排放能力降低的机理

作为一种重要的土壤调节剂,生物质炭在固碳减排,尤其在氧化亚氮(N₂O)减排方面的作用日益突出。本研究通过田间定位试验,分析稻麦轮作体系新鲜和田间不同时间老化生物质炭对N₂O排放的影响,旨在明确生物质炭对田间N₂O排放的持续效应及其作用机理。试验共设置5个处理,分别为CK（不施氮肥和生物质炭）、N（施氮肥）、NB_0y（氮肥+新鲜生物质炭）、NB_2y（氮肥+2年老化生物质炭）和NB_5y （氮肥+5年老化生物质炭）,动态监测稻麦轮作周期N₂O排放,测定水稻和小麦收获后土壤理化性质和氮循环功能基因丰度。结果表明,生物质炭显著降低土壤N2O累积排放量32.4% ~ 54.0%,且表现为NB_0y> NB_2y> NB_5y。与N处理相比,NB_0y, NB_2y 和NB_5y处理显著提高土壤pH值0.6 ~ 1.2个单位、土壤有机碳（SOC）含量21.4 % ~ 58.6%、硝态氮（NO_3^--N）含量1.7% ~ 31.3%,对土壤pH改善能力随着生物质炭老化而下降。生物质炭处理显著提高nosZ基因丰度54.9% ~ 249.4%,土壤 (nirS+nirK)/nosZ比值随着生物质炭老化而增加。相关性分析表明,土壤N₂O累积排放量与pH值呈显著负相关,与NO_3^--N含量和amoA-AOB（氨氧化细菌）丰度呈显著正相关。因此,新鲜和田间不同时间老化生物质炭均能显著改善土壤理化特性,降低土壤 N₂O排放且新鲜生物质炭的作用效果优于老化生物质炭。土壤NO_3^--N 含量及(nirS+nirK)/nosZ比值的增加,是导致老化生物质炭减排N₂O能力降低的主要原因。     

氮负载生物炭对干湿交替稻田水土生态环境的调控效应

农田面源污染已成为引起水体富营养化的主要原因之一。为了减少稻田氮素流失、改善稻田局部水体养分负载过重的问题，采用盆栽试验，通过生物炭吸附富营养水中的养分后再利用于盆栽水稻，设置主区为持续淹水灌溉（I_F）与干湿交替灌溉（I_A），副区为1个对照（常规施氮，N1C0）与4种不同用量的氮肥与氮负载生物炭处理（N3/4C1、N3/4C2、N1/2C1、N1/2C2），其中N3/4、N1/2表示氮肥施入量为当地传统施氮量（N1）的3/4，1/2倍；C1、C2分别为10 t/hm²和20 t/hm²氮负载生物炭。结果表明：（1）减少氮肥施入配施氮负载生物炭显著提高了常规施氮处理田面水的pH；（2）常规施氮肥处理下，干湿交替灌溉（I_A）田面水NH₄⁺—N平均浓度较持续淹水灌溉（I_F）高8.0%，但是添加20 t/hm²氮负载生物炭后，干湿交替灌溉田面水NH₄⁺—N平均浓度低于持续淹水灌溉处理；（3）水稻生育后期，氮负载生物炭对NH₄⁺—N具有明显的缓释作用，而在干湿交替灌溉中，减施氮肥配合添加氮负载生物炭处理较N1C0处理降低了田面水NO₃^-—N浓度；（4）减施氮肥配合添加氮负载生物炭可提高水稻分蘖率，而添加20 t/hm²氮负载生物炭在氮肥施用量较少时，有利于提高水稻的有效分蘖率。综上，氮负载生物炭不仅可以降低富营养水中30.8%含氮量，还能显著降低施肥初期水稻田面水中NH₄⁺—N浓度，降低流失风险，延长NH₄⁺—N的释放时间而减少1/4的施氮量和保证水稻生育末期的氮素需求，从而有利于水稻生长。     

不同温度下海南禾本科类植物材料制备的生物质炭对 砖红壤性质及N2O排放影响

制备温度及原料影响生物质炭性质,相应影响土壤N₂O的排放,为筛选适宜于海南砖红壤的生物质炭类型,利用室内培养试验,研究海南4种禾本科植物材料在300℃、500℃、700℃ 三种热解温度下制备的12种生物质炭对砖红壤性质及N₂O排放的影响。结果表明：所有生物质炭都能显著增加土壤有机碳、有效磷和速效钾含量,提高土壤pH,加速土壤硝化作用进行;300℃下制备的生物质炭能促进土壤N₂O排放,500℃和700℃下制备的生物质炭则对土壤N₂O排放有明显抑制作用;所有材料中,高温热解温度下由甘蔗渣制备的生物质炭处理土壤的N₂O排放量最低,可能由于甘蔗在榨糖后剩下的甘蔗渣以较稳定的碳水化合物为主。综合分析,推荐500℃热解温度下生成的甘蔗渣生物质炭实施土壤改良,更有利于N₂O减排。     

生物质炭对土壤N2O消耗的影响及其微生物影响机理

生物质炭在温室气体减排方面具有很大的发展前景,它不仅能实现固碳,对于在大气中停留时间长且增温潜势大的N₂O也能发挥积极作用。本研究采用室内厌氧培养试验,按照生物质炭与土壤质量比（0、1%和5%）加入一定量生物质炭,土壤重量含水率控制在20%。利用Robotized Incubation平台实时检测N₂O和N₂浓度变化,通过测定土壤中反硝化功能基因丰度（nirK、nirS、nosZ）分析生物质炭对N₂O消耗的影响及其微生物方面的影响机理。结果表明：经过20 h厌氧培养后,0生物质炭处理的反硝化功能基因丰度（基因拷贝数·g^-1）分别为6.80×10⁷（nirK）、5.59×10⁸（nirS）和1.22×10⁸（nosZ）。与0生物质炭处理相比,1%生物质炭处理的nirS基因丰度由最初的2.65×10⁸基因拷贝数·g^-1升至7.43×10⁸基因拷贝数·g^-1,nosZ基因丰度则提高了一个数量级,由4.82×10⁷基因拷贝数·g^-1升至1.50×10⁸基因拷贝数·g^-1,然而nirK基因丰度并无明显变化;5%生物质炭处理的反硝化功能基因丰度并未发生显著变化。试验结束时,添加生物质炭处理的N₂/（N₂O+N₂）比值也明显高于0生物质炭处理。相关性分析结果表明,nirS基因丰度和nosZ基因丰度均与N₂O浓度在0.01水平上显著相关。试验末期nirS基因丰度和nosZ基因丰度均随着N₂O浓度的降低而升高。因此在本试验中,添加1%生物质炭可显著提高nirS和nosZ基因型反硝化细菌的丰度,增大N₂/（N₂O+N₂）比值,促进N₂O彻底还原成N₂。生物质炭对于N₂O主要影响机理是增大了可以还原氧化亚氮的细菌活性,促进完全反硝化。     

不同时期施用生物炭对稻田N_2O和CH_4排放的影响

通过分别在水稻季(R)和小麦季(W)设置对照(RB0-N0、WB0-N0)、单施氮肥(RB0-N1、WB0-N1)、20 t hm-2生物炭与氮配施(RB1-N1、WB1-N1)、40 t hm-2生物炭与氮配施(RB2-N1、WB2-N1)等8个处理,研究稻麦轮作周年系统N2O和CH4排放规律及其引起的综合温室效应(Global warming potential,GWP)和温室气体强度(Greenhouse gas intensity,GHGI)特征。结果表明:稻季配施20 t hm-2生物炭对N2O和CH4的排放、作物产量及GWP和GHGI均都无明显影响;稻季配施40 t hm-2生物炭能显著降低8.6%的CH4的排放和9.3%的GWP,显著增加作物产量17.2%。麦季配施20 t hm-2生物炭虽然对温室气体及GWP影响不明显,但显著增加21.6%的作物产量,从而显著降低21.7%的GHGI;麦季配施40 t hm-2生物炭能显著降低20.9%和11.3%的N2O和CH4排放,显著降低15.7%和23.5%的GWP和GHGI。因此麦季配施生物炭对减少N2O和CH4的排放、增加稻麦轮作产量及降低GWP和GHGI的效果较稻季配施生物炭效果更好。     

生物炭和腐殖酸施用对稻麦轮作系统CH4和N2O综合温室效应的影响

生物炭和腐殖酸对土壤C、N循环和作物产量均具有深刻影响。该试验以稻麦轮作系统为研究对象,探究生物炭和腐殖酸在经过1 a陈化后对土壤肥力、作物产量和温室气体排放的持续影响。设置了6个处理：B0F0(对照,不添加生物炭和腐殖酸);B0F1(不添加生物炭,腐殖酸添加量为0.6 t/hm²);B0F2(不添加生物炭,腐殖酸添加量为1.2 t/hm²);B1F0(生物炭添加量为20 t/hm²,不添加腐殖酸);B1F1(生物炭添加量为20 t/hm²,腐殖酸添加量为0.6 t/hm²);B1F2(生物炭添加量为20 t/hm²,腐殖酸添加量为1.2 t/hm²)。结果表明：1)试验期内,与B0F0相比,生物炭显著增加了稻麦两季土壤有机碳含量;腐殖酸增加了稻季土壤有机碳含量,对麦季土壤有机碳含量无显著影响;单独施用生物炭或腐殖酸对水稻和小麦产量均没有显著影响,生物炭和腐殖酸混施处理显著提高了小麦产量,增幅为1.0%～5.0%,对水稻产量没有显著影...     

生物质炭和腐殖质对稻田土壤CH4和N2O排放的影响

为探讨生物质炭与腐殖质单独施用与配合施用对稻田土壤CH₄和N₂O气体排放以及水稻产量的影响。以浙江临安潜育性水稻土的稻田系统为研究对象,设置2个水稻秸秆生物质炭添加水平(0,20 t/hm²)和3个腐殖质水平(0,0.6,1.2 t/hm²),共6个处理,分别为:(1)B0F0(对照,不添加生物质炭和腐殖质);(2)B0F1(腐殖质用量为0.6 t/hm²);(3)B0F2(腐殖质用量为1.2 t/hm²);(4)B1F0(生物质炭用量为20 t/hm²);(5)B1F1(生物质炭和腐殖质用量分别为20,0.6 t/hm²);(6)B1F2(生物质炭和腐殖质用量分别为20,1.2 t/hm²),研究生物质炭和腐殖质输入对水稻产量、稻田CH₄和N₂O气体排放的影响。结果表明:(1)与B0F0相比,单独施用生物质炭和腐殖质或生物质炭与腐殖质配施均降低了土壤CH₄累积排放量,但增加了土壤N₂O累积排放量;(2)生物质炭处理对GWP(global warming potential)和GHGI(greenhouse gas intensity)没有显著影响(P>0.05),腐殖质处理显著降低了GWP和GHGI(P<0.05),生物质炭和腐殖质对GWP和GHGI存在显著交互作用(P<0.05);(3)与B0F0相比,单独施用生物质炭和腐殖质或者生物质炭与腐殖质配施均能在一定程度上减少单位水稻产量的温室气体排放强度(GHGI),B0F2处理的GHGI最低,表明单施腐殖质处理(腐殖质用量为1.2 t/hm²)稻田土壤的减排效果和环境效应最好。研究结果为进一步探讨稻田土壤固碳减排提供数据支撑和理论依据。     

生物炭改性黏土的渗水渗气特性及其函数关系

黏土中施加生物炭可改变土体的孔隙结构。生物炭掺量和干密度均会对土体的渗透系数产生影响,准确确定生物炭-黏土混合土的渗透系数对满足填埋场上覆层的功能需求就显得格外重要。采用自主研发设计的柔性壁水-气联合渗透测试装置,测定不同生物炭掺量和干密度的生物炭-黏土混合土的饱和渗透系数和渗气系数,得到生物炭掺量、干密度与渗气系数和渗水系数间的关系曲线。建立生物炭掺量和干密度双变化条件下的渗气渗水函数,并通过验证组验证该函数的适用性。研究结果表明：在干密度较小时,对比纯黏土的渗水率,添加5%、10%、15%和20%生物炭处理后的土样渗水系数k_w值分别为8.25×10^-17、8.89×10^-17、10.40×10^-17和18.25×10^-17 m²,掺20%生物炭土样的渗透率增加了将近一个数量级。渗气渗水函数基于易测定的渗气率作为自变量,同时又考虑了干密度和生物炭掺量的影响,能快速、准确地确定土样的渗水系数。结合验证组试验得出,利用该函数计算得到的渗水系数和试验实测值吻合程度较好,表明该函数具有一定的适用性。本研究结果可为快速、准确确定渗水系数,定量描述非饱和土孔隙中水气运动之间的相互影响提供理论支撑。     

意大利中部地区粘土稻田干湿交替减少CH4排放但诱发N2O排放高峰

Reducing CH₄ and N₂O emissions from rice cropping systems while sustaining production levels with less water requires a better understanding of the key processes involved. Alternate wetting and drying (AWD) irrigation is one promising practice that has been shown to reduce CH₄ emissions. However, little is known about the impact of this practice on N₂O emissions, in particular under Mediterranean climate. To close this knowledge gap, we assessed how AWD influenced grain yield, fluxes and annual budgets of CH₄ and N₂O emissions, and global warming potential (GWP) in Italian rice systems over a 2-year period. Overall, a larger GWP was observed under AWD, as a result of high N₂O emissions which offset reductions in CH₄ emissions. In the first year, with 70% water reduction, the yields were reduced by 33%, CH₄ emissions decreased by 97%,while N₂O emissions increased by more than 5-foldunder AWD as compared to PF;in the second year, with a 40% watersaving,the reductions of rice yields and CH₄ emissions (13% and 11%, respectively) were not significant, but N₂O fluxes more than doubled. The transition from anaerobic to aerobic soil conditions resulted in the highest N₂O fluxes under AWD. The duration of flooding, transition to aerobic conditions, water levelabove the soil surface, and the relative timing between fertilization and flooding were the main drivers affecting greenhouse gas mitigation potential under AWD and should be carefully planned through site-specific management options.     

Contribution of fallow periods between rice crops to seasonal GHG emissions: effect of water and tillage management

ABSTRACT

Irrigated rice cultivation is a major source of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from agriculture. Methane (CH₄) and nitrous oxide (N₂O) are emitted not only throughout the growing season but also in the fallow period between crops. A study was conducted for two transition periods between rice crops (dry to wet season transition and wet to dry season transition) in the Philippines to investigate the effect of water and tillage management on CH₄ and N₂O emissions as well as on soil nitrate and ammonium. Management treatments between rice crops included (1) continuous flooding (F), (2) soil drying (D), (3) soil drying with aerobic tillage (D + T), and (4) soil drying and wetting (D + W). The static closed chamber method was used to measure CH₄ and N₂O fluxes.

Soil nitrate accumulated and N₂O was emitted in treatments with soil drying. Nitrate disappeared while ammonium gradually increased after the soil was flooded during land preparation, indicating net nitrogen mineralization. N₂O emissions were highest in both transition periods in D + W (437 and 645 µg N₂O m^?2 h^?1). Methane emissions were significant in only the F treatment. The highest global warming potential (GWP) in the transition between rice crops occurred in F, with CH₄ contributing almost 100% to the GWP. The GWP from other treatments was lower than F, with about 60–99% of the GWP attributed to N₂O emissions in treatments with soil drying. The GWP in the transition between rice crops represented up to 26% of the total GWP from harvest to harvest. This study demonstrates that the transition period can be an important source of GHG emissions with relative importance of CH₄ and N₂O depending on the soil water regime. Therefore, the transition period should not be disregarded when estimating GHG emissions for rice cropping systems.     

Rice straw incorporation in winter with fertilizer-N application improves soil fertility and reduces global warming potential from a double rice paddy field

Proper rice straw management in paddy fields is necessary in order to sustain soil productivity and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. A field experiment was carried out from 2008 to 2011 in subtropical China: (1) to monitor rice yield, soil available nutrients, CH₄, and N₂O emissions and (2) to evaluate the effects of timing of rice straw incorporation and joint N application rate in a double rice cropping system. The total amount of rice straw from one cropping season was incorporated in winter (W_S) or in spring (S_S) and mineral N was jointly applied with rice straw incorporation at rates of 0, 30, and 60 % of the basal fertilization rate (N_0B, N_30B, and N_60B) for the first rice crop. Soil water was naturally drained during the period of winter fallow (P_WF) and controlled under intermittent irrigation during the period of first rice growth (P_FR). Compared with S_S, W_S significantly (P?<?0.05) increased the first rice yield only in the flooding year (2010), and increased the soil available K concentration after P_WF and P_FR in 2008–2009 and the hydrolysable N concentration after P_WF in 2010–2011. Meanwhile, W_S significantly decreased the total CH₄ emission by about 12 % in 2009–2010 and 2010–2011, but increased the total N₂O emission by 15–43 % particularly during P_WF in all 3 years, resulting in a lower GWP in W_S in the flooding year and no differences in the nonflooding years. Compared with N_0B, joint N application (N_60B and N_30B) increased the soil hydrolysable N after P_WF in all 3 years. Meanwhile, it decreased the total CH₄ emissions by 21 % and increased the N₂O emissions during P_WF by 75–150 % in the nonflooding years, but the net GWP was lower in N_60B than in N_0B. The results suggested that the rice straw incorporation with joint N application in winter is more sustainable compared with the local practices such as rice straw incorporation in spring or open-field burning.     

秸秆条带状覆盖对稻田CH_4和N_2O排放的影响

采用3种秸秆还田方式(对照、秸秆均匀混施和秸秆条带状覆盖)进行田间试验,观测稻田CH4和N2O的排放通量,以探讨秸秆条带状覆盖对稻田CH4和N2O排放的影响。结果表明:秸秆条带状覆盖的CH4排放量是对照的2.7倍,二者的N2O排放量无明显差异;秸秆条带状覆盖的稻田CH4排放量较秸秆均匀混施减少32%,其N2O排放量是后者的5.1倍;稻田排放CH4和N2O的全球增温潜势(GWP)为:秸秆均匀混施秸秆条带状覆盖对照,且差异显著;秸秆条带状覆盖的水稻产量分别较对照和秸秆均匀混施增加27%和17%。秸秆条带状覆盖是值得推荐的稻季秸秆还田方式。     

Potential and promisingness of technical options for mitigating greenhouse gas emissions from rice cultivation in Southeast Asian countries

ABSTRACT

Paddy fields are considered as one of the most important sources of anthropogenic methane (CH₄) and nitrous oxide (N₂O) emissions. While several technical options have been proposed to reduce these emissions, gaps in data and information based on application of these options in the field are a key barrier to scaling-up. To address these gaps, we conducted a review of literature to analyze the potential of technical options in Southeast Asia (SEA). Using screening criteria based on reliability of experimental data, 31 region-specific cases were selected for the analysis. A meta-analysis indicated that water management options, including single and multiple drainage approaches such as alternative wetting and drying (AWD), significantly reduced CH₄ emissions by 35% as a mean effect size (95% confidential interval: 41–29%), as well as the combined effects of CH₄+N₂O (net GWP) by 29% (36–23%). The effect on reducing CH₄ emissions in the dry season was significantly larger than that in the wet season. Application of biochar reduced both CH₄ and N₂O emissions by 20% (40% to ?7%), while significantly increased rice yield by 28% (8–52%). Other options such as removal of rice straw from the previous crop, composting rice straw and manure, application of sulfate-containing fertilizer, and soil drying in the fallow season also have recognized potential to reduce emissions but require further data and consideration of possible trade-offs. Based on the analysis of mitigation potential, promising technical options were assessed by considering together with constraints and additional co-benefits in order to provide a useful guide for policy makers and rice value chain operators in SEA countries for adopting mitigation options in rice cultivation to tackle climate change and enhance agriculture sector sustainability.     

Short-term effects of raw rice straw and its derived biochar on greenhouse gas emission in five typical soils in China

Abstract

A short-term study was conducted to investigate the greenhouse gas emissions in five typical soils under two crop residue management practices: raw rice straw (Oryza sativa L., cv) and its derived biochar application. Rice straw and its derived biochar (two biochars, produced at 350 and 500°C and referred to as BC350 and BC500, respectively) were incubated with the soils at a 5% (weight/weight) rate and under 70% water holding capacity for 28 d. Incorporation of BC500 into soils reduced carbon dioxide (CO₂) and nitrous oxide (N₂O) emission in all five soils by 4?40% and 62?98%, respectively, compared to the untreated soils, whereas methane (CH₄) emission was elevated by up to about 2 times. Contrary to the biochars, direct return of the straw to soil reduced CH₄ emission by 22?69%, whereas CO₂ increased by 4 to 34 times. For N₂O emission, return of rice straw to soil reduced it by over 80% in two soils, while it increased by up to 14 times in other three soils. When all three greenhouse gases were normalized on the CO₂ basis, the global warming potential in all treatments followed the order of straw > BC350 > control > BC500 in all five soils. The results indicated that turning rice straw into biochar followed by its incorporation into soil was an effective measure for reducing soil greenhouse gas emission, and the effectiveness increased with increasing biochar production temperature, whereas direct return of straw to soil enhanced soil greenhouse gas emissions.
