绿洲灌区小麦水分生产率在不同尺度上的变化

水分生产率是衡量农业生产水平和农业用水科学性与合理性的综合指标。文章根据民乐县洪水河灌区1995-2006年的气象、灌溉用水量、灌溉面积、作物产量资料,从田间、斗渠、干渠、灌区4个不同尺度分析了小麦灌溉水分生产率年份间的变化情况。结果表明：不同尺度上平均灌溉水分生产率不同,田间尺度为1.414 kg/m3,斗渠尺度为1.013 kg/m3,干渠尺度为1.089 kg/m3,灌区尺度为0.894 kg/m3,并且不同尺度上的灌溉水分生产率在年份间的差异也比较大。2001年洪水河灌区实施了节水灌溉工程,不同尺度上的平均灌溉水分生产率在2001-2006年较1995-2000年有所提高,田间、斗渠、干渠、灌区分别提高了7.9%、19.4%、16.5%、7.4%,说明目前斗渠、干渠尺度上节水力度大,节水效益明显,而灌区尺度还有较大的节水潜力,应成为未来农业节水研究的重点。     

西安地区主要粮食作物水分生产率时空分布特性研究

水分生产率是农业水资源管理的一个重要指标。为从不同视角揭示农业水资源消耗与粮食生产的关系,以陕西省西安市地区为研究区,利用空间分析方法,分析了2001-2014年西安市主要粮食作物(小麦、玉米)的灌溉水分生产率、作物水分生产率、总流入水分生产率及经济水分生产率的时空分布规律,并通过灰色关联理论分析主影响因素对作物水分生产率的影响。结果表明：西安市水分生产率在空间上呈现显著聚集现象；各水分生产率指标均表现出空间分异性,同指标不同年份水分生产率空间分布类似；灌溉水分生产率值在1.5-2.5kg/m_³范围之间,年际间波动较大,2001-2010年随着时间而增大,2011-2014年有减小趋势；作物水分生产率在0.7-1.0kg/m_³范围之间,随时间增长无明显变化；灌溉水及蒸散水经济水分生产率均随时间呈上升趋势,且灌溉水经济水分生产率远大于蒸散水经济水分生产率；年均气温、化肥施用量、有效灌溉面积、作物播种面积及农业机械总动力依次是影响该地区作物水分生产率的前5位主要因素。     

中国灌区水分生产率及其时空差异分析

从粮食产出和广义水资源投入出发,计算了31个省区灌溉农田的水分生产率并分析其时空变化特征,同时建立广义水利用系数以评价水资源的有效利用率。结果显示:由于粮食单产提高和灌溉用水量的减少,1998-2010年各省区水分生产率值均呈增大趋势,全国平均值由0.67kg/m3增大到0.81kg/m3;空间自相关分析表明,水分生产率值相似的省区在空间上显著地聚集,全局Moran’sI的检验值都大于0.01的置信水平,高值省区以黄淮海平原为核心集中分布,长江以南和东北则密集了低值省区,局部自相关属性为高-高(HH)、低-低(LL)的省区超过了20个,13a来总体和局部的空间分异特征随时间变化均不明显;不同地区的广义水利用系数都随时间增加,省区间水分生产率和广义水利用系数大小关系无一致性,水分生产率高的省区亦存在较大节水潜力。从自然条件、农业生产特征、经济发展程度等方面宏观分析了水分生产率和广义水利用系数在空间差异的原因。该研究为灌区水资源管理宏观政策的制定提供依据。     

干旱沙漠区小麦田水肥管理效率模拟

干旱沙漠区小麦田水肥管理效率模拟试验研究结果表明,在干旱沙漠区30cm厚的黄河灌淤沙地中进一步降低灌溉标准至田间持水量的40%以下是可能的,更低的灌溉标准将有利于提高小麦的水分利用效率,并降低渗漏损失率.在目前施有效氮、磷、钾总量＜800kg/hm2的水平下,施肥差异不会导致水分渗漏、蒸发和小麦对水分利用比例的差异,但小麦籽粒产量随施肥量的增加而增加.0.12kg/m3的高肥水指数(有效氮、磷、钾施用总量/灌水总量)可获得近5500kg/hm2小麦籽粒产量和约0.74kg/m3的水分生产率.     

中国灌溉农田粮食作物水分利用效率的研究

以1980年至1986年、22个省(市、自治区)、10种作物、共计4422个站的年实测作物耗水量和产量数据为基础,用加权平均法计算得到全国灌溉农田上粮食作物平均水分利用效率值约为1.1kg/m³。并根据典型试验站作物产量、总耗水量及水分利用效率之间的相互关系,以及全国粮食作物单产随年分的变化趋势,经分析认为这一数值可以作为衡量全国灌溉农田上粮食作物平均水分利用效率的现状值     

内蒙古东部地区喷灌灌溉制度及其经济效益

[目的]为解决内蒙古东部大兴安岭东南地区由于零灌溉所带来的"单产不高,总产不稳"等问题,确定适合于当地的高产高效节水型灌溉制度。[方法]以当地主要作物大豆为供试作物,开展了喷灌条件下的作物产量、水分生产率和经济效益等方面的研究。[结果]当地原有的零灌溉农业种植模式并不能为大豆的种植提供足够的水分,采用喷灌技术追加2次灌溉,大豆可增产20.0%,但是经济效益并没有提高;追加4水灌溉,虽然总收益最高,但是大豆的作物水分生产率却相比3水灌溉小了很多,造成了不必要的水资源浪费。[结论]在开花期、结荚期和鼓粒期分别对大豆增加3次灌水定额为200m3/hm2的灌水,不但可以提高大豆的产量(增产47.8%),而且可以获得最大的经济收益。     

畦田灌水质量评价及水分利用效率分析

畦田灌水质量是影响作物产量和水分利用效率的重要因素。针对现有评价灌水质量存在工作量较大的问题,根据田间实测资料,利用SIRMOD模型、SRFR模型和田间实测方法分别计算灌水效率和灌水均匀度,结果表明根据较少的观测资料利用SIRMOD模型或SRFR模型也可对畦田灌水质量进行评价。根据模拟结果初步得出了在一定条件下单宽流量、平整精度和田面坡度对灌水质量的影响规律,并对不同规格畦田小麦全生育期的平均灌水质量对产量和水分利用效率的影响进行了分析,得出畦长45 m,畦宽分别为5.0和7.5 m的畦田在获得较高产量的条件下,水分利用效率由现状的1.10 kg/m3分别提高到1.38 kg/m3和1.35 kg/m3,从田间试验角度论证了对灌区较大规格畦田进行缩块改造的必要性。     

灌溉、施肥和浅水埋深对小麦产量和硝态氮淋溶损失的影响

利用ArcGIS9.0软件中嵌套地质统计模块分析河套灌区浅层地下水埋深（2009年）空间分布状况,结合在2010年3－7月间开展的灌溉量、施氮量和浅层地下水埋深对春小麦产量和土壤中硝态氮淋溶损失影响的显著性以及最优组合研究,确定出适用于河套灌区内不同区域的春小麦农业管理的最优综合模式。研究表明,表层（0～80 cm）土壤含水率随着浅水埋深的增大而减小,当浅水埋深≥2.0 m时,在同一浅水埋深水平下灌溉量成为土壤含水率显著影响因子;对春小麦产量影响程度高低是浅水埋深＞灌溉量＞施氮量,影响显著因子为浅水埋深;对硝态氮淋溶量影响程度高低是灌溉量＞施氮量＞浅水埋深;灌溉量对硝态氮淋溶影响呈极显著性,施氮量对其影响呈显著性,而浅水埋深起到辅助作用。灌区年均浅层地下水埋深主要有3个阈值：1.25～1.75、1.75～2.25和2.25～3.00 m。在灌区内浅水埋深不同区域内（1.5、2.0和2.5 m）时,三因素最优综合组分别为灌溉量（280 mm）+施肥量（尿素150 kg·hm-2,二铵165 kg/hm2）、灌溉量（320 mm）+施肥量（尿素150 kg/hm2,二铵165 kg/hm2）和灌溉量（360 mm）+施肥量（尿素255 kg/hm2,二铵375 kg/hm2）。     

灌水对水肥一体化制种玉米产量和水分利用效率的影响

研发和推广应用高效节水技术是提升扬黄灌区制种玉米产量、支撑制种玉米产业增效和持续发展的重要途径。为了给建立制种玉米水肥一体化技术模式下的科学高效灌溉制度提供科学依据。在甘肃扬黄灌区滴灌水肥一体化条件下,研究了不同灌溉定额和灌水次数下制种玉米的产量表现和水分利用效果。结果表明,灌溉定额从2 250 m3/hm2增加到3 000 m3/hm2时,制种玉米增产幅度达33.84%,但灌溉定额高于3 000 m3/hm2并继续增大时增产效果不明显,生育期耗水量增加,水分利用效率降低明显。灌水次数从10次增加至20次时,制种玉米产量及水分利用效率均呈降低趋势,灌水次数多于15次并继续增加时,制种玉米减产显著。灌水次数和灌溉定额之间不存在互作效应。在灌溉定额偏低条件下,增加灌水次数会造成制种玉米严重减产。当生育期灌溉定额为3 000 m3/hm2、灌水次数为10次时,折合产量较高,为7 386.9 kg/hm2,较其余处理增产-2.77%～93.58%;水分利用效率最高,为17.83 kg/(mm·hm2),较其余处理提高5.32%～78.30%;种植纯收益较高,为29 683.6元/hm2,较其余处理增加-511.8～20 675.4元/hm2;产投比最高,为3.03,较其余处理增加0.07～1.38。可见,灌水10次、灌溉定额为3 000 m3/hm2时灌溉水利用效果相对优化。     

施氮量与灌水上下限对黄秋葵产量和养分吸收的交互作用

探讨施氮量与灌水上下限对黄秋葵养分吸收的交互作用,为黄秋葵的水肥管理提供理论及参数依据。采用土壤盆栽试验,设置田间持水量的45%~55%即45%~55% FC(W1)、35%~65% FC(W2)、25%~75% FC(W3) 3种灌水上下限及0 kg/hm²(N0)、110 kg/hm²(N1)、330 kg/hm²(N2) 3个氮水平,观测不同施氮量和灌水上下限对黄秋葵生长发育、生理响应及养分吸收的影响。结果表明,相同施氮水平下,黄秋葵不同器官生物量、果实产量、灌溉水分生产率及氮磷钾养分积累量以W1最高。相同灌水上下限,黄秋葵不同器官生物量、果实产量、谷氨酰胺合成酶活性、灌溉水分生产率及氮肥偏生产力以N1最高,各处理之间差异显著。水、氮之间表现显著的互作效应,N1W1处理的黄秋葵总生物量、果实产量、灌溉水分生产率和氮肥偏生产力最高,分别为446.4 g、201.3 g、6.9 g/kg和108.7 kg/kg,显著高于最低处理N2W3(190.3 g、64.9 g、2.4 g/kg和11.7 kg/kg),分别提高了57.4%、67.8%、65.2%和89.2%。综合分析表明,高氮高水处理(N2W3)显著降低黄秋葵产量及水肥利用效率,黄秋葵产量、灌溉水分生产率及养分吸收综合体现的最优模式为110 kg/hm²的施氮量、45%~55%FC的灌水上下限(N1W1),此研究可为丰富黄秋葵高产栽培提供理论依据。

Biodiversity and ecogeography of wild Lactuca spp. in some European countries

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.     

Pasture Vegetation Elemental Analysis by Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy

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.     

Properties of anaerobically digested and composted municipal solid waste assessed by linking soil mesofauna dynamics and nitrogen modelling

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.

Assessing the effectiveness of conservation measures: Resolving the “wicked” problem of the Steller sea lion

“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.     

Soil-profile distribution of primary and secondary plant-available nutrients under conventional and no tillage

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.

Macroinvertebrates in North American tallgrass prairie soils: effects of fire, mowing, and fertilization on density and biomass

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.
