Cotton Image Segmentation Algorithm Based on Fusion Method of Markov Random Field and Quantum Particle Swarm Cluster

[Objective] The aim of this study was to improve the cotton image segmentation accuracy in a picking robot image processing system. [Method] An image segmentation algorithm based on a fusion method of Markov random field and quantum particle swarm optimization clustering was proposed. The process of the proposed algorithm is as follows: first, transform the RGB (red, green, blue) images into grayscale; second, use it to segment these images; finally, the threshold of the connected area is set on the basis of the segmented image to obtain the target area. Then, the cotton front image and the cotton side image are selected from the images collected from different angles. The segmentation experiment was carried out by using this algorithm, and compared with the Otsu algorithm, the fuzzy C-means algorithm, the quantum particle swarm image segmentation algorithm and the Markov random field image segmentation algorithm. [Result] The results showed that the segmentation accuracy and peak signal to noise ratio of the proposed algorithm were 98.94% and 77.48 dB. When compared with the Otsu algorithm, fuzzy C-means algorithm, quantum particle swarm optimization algorithm and Markov random field algorithm, the average segmentation accuracy and peak signal to noise ratio of the proposed algorithm increased by 2.47%–4.56%, and 9.81–13.11 dB, respectively. [Conclusion] The proposed algorithm had higher segmentation accuracy and higher peak signal to noise ratio than the other algorithms tested.

秸秆还田深度对土壤温室气体排放及玉米产量的影响

【目的】秸秆还田是培肥地力、增加土壤有机质和改善土壤结构的重要技术手段,但以往的研究表明秸秆还田会加速土壤温室气体的排放。本研究通过对秸秆不同还田深度下农田土壤温室气体排放特征和产量的研究,明确降低温室气体排放量的最佳还田深度,以期为合理利用秸秆、提高作物产量,实现农业可持续发展提供科学依据。【方法】采用大田微区试验,以玉米为供试作物,设置4个还田深度,采用静态箱-气相色谱法测定整个玉米生长季不同还田深度下温室气体（CO₂、CH₄、N₂O）的排放特征,产量及产量构成因素。试验共设5个处理,还田深度分别为0—10 cm（T1）、10—20 cm（T2）、20—30 cm（T3）和30—40 cm（T4）,同时以不还田处理作为对照（CK）。【结果】（1）在整个玉米生长季CO₂和N₂O均表现为排放,CH₄表现为吸收。CO₂累积排放量为T3处理最高,较CK显著增加了28.6%,T4处理增加最少,较CK显著增加了17.1%（P<0.05）,但T1与T4处理之间差异不显著;而N₂O的累积排放量T2处理为最高,与CK相比,累积排放量显著增加111.3%,T4处理增加最少,与CK相比显著增加了12.8%（P<0.05）;CH₄则表现为吸收,且秸秆还田后降低了农田土壤对CH₄的吸收能力,吸收量表现为CK处理>T4处理>T3处理>T1处理>T2处理,且各还田处理与CK之间差异显著（P<0.05）。（2）秸秆不同还田深度下,与对照相比,各处理玉米产量均显著增加,增产在5.6%—20.8%（P<0.05）,但各处理之间的穗长、穗粗和行粒数差异不显著。当秸秆还至30—40 cm时,产量最高,较CK增加了20.8%,表明秸秆还田对提升土壤肥力及作物增产有重要作用。（3）从温室气体综合增温潜势（GWP）和温室气体排放强度（GHGI）来看,在100年尺度上,GWP表现为T2处理>T3处理>T1处理>T4处理>CK处理,而GHGI表现为T2处理>T3处理>T1处理>CK处理>T4处理,表明与CK相比,各处理均增加了玉米季温室气体的综合增温潜势,而T4处理则降低了玉米季温室气体排放强度,说明秸秆深还至30—40 cm可在一定程度上缓解全球增温潜势。【结论】秸秆还田会显著增加CO₂和N₂O排放,降低对CH₄的吸收能力;秸秆深还至30—40 cm可相对降低综合增温潜势,降低温室气体排放强度,同时显著增加玉米产量。因此,为实现较高的玉米产量和较低的温室气体排放强度,秸秆深还至30—40 cm是较为合理的土壤改良培肥方式。     

[CO2]升高对粮食作物影响的研究进展

自工业革命以来,由人类活动引起的大气CO_2浓度([CO_2])不断攀升,正驱动着全球气候变化,对全球农业产生重大影响。本文归纳总结了目前作物对高[CO_2]响应的主要研究技术手段,以及作物对高[CO_2]响应的机理研究,并进一步梳理了当前全球关于[CO_2]升高对作物产量和营养品质影响的研究。结果表明:相比封闭式或半封闭式环境控制试验系统,开放式试验系统(如开放式CO_2控制系统FACE)由于其能更加真实地模拟自然条件下作物对未来高[CO_2]的响应和适应情况,被公认为是目前研究作物对高[CO_2]响应的最理想手段。[CO_2]增高会增加C3作物光合速率、生物量和产量,在一定程度上缓解气候变化对农作物产生的负面影响,但是作物对大气[CO_2]的升高存在光合适应现象,当作物长期暴露在高[CO_2]条件下时,高[CO_2]对作物的促进作用会逐渐减缓。近10年的FACE试验发现,对高[CO_2]出现高应答的水稻品种,其光合速率和产量在高[CO_2]下的增加幅度比早期的主要粮食作物FACE试验结果平均高出两倍。此外,高[CO_2]会明显降低大部分非豆科C3作物中蛋白质和矿物质(如锌、铁)以及部分维生素的含量,加剧目前全球约2亿人由于维生素和矿物质元素等营养缺乏导致的健康问题。如何充分利用未来高[CO_2]实现高增产的同时,减缓粮食养分下降的负面影响,是迫切需要解决的科学问题。     

A fresh look at inland fisheries and their role in food security and livelihoods

The role of inland fisheries in livelihoods, food security and sustainable development is often overshadowed by the higher profile interest in ocean issues. Whilst inland fisheries' catch and contribution to global nutrition, food security and the economy, are less than that of marine fisheries, global‐level comparisons of fish production obscure considerable livelihood impacts in certain countries and sub‐national areas. To highlight these contributions, this paper synthesizes recent data and innovative approaches for assessing such livelihood contributions and their importance in countries with limited access to ocean resources and aquaculture. Inland fisheries are crucial for many socially, economically and nutritionally vulnerable groups of people around the world, but the challenges in monitoring inland fisheries preclude a complete understanding of the magnitude of their contributions. This situation is rapidly improving with increasing recognition of inland fisheries in development discourses, which has also encouraged research to enhance knowledge on the importance of inland fisheries. We review this work, including collated information published in a recent Food and Agriculture Organization report, to provide an up to date characterization of the state of knowledge on the role of inland fisheries.     

稻田转为菜地初始阶段温室气体排放特征

【目的】近年来,随着我国社会经济的快速发展和人们生活水平的提高及膳食结构的改善,越来越多的稻田被转为蔬菜种植,影响了土壤碳氮转化过程及其引起的温室气体排放。因此有必要探究稻田转为蔬菜种植,特别是该土地利用方式转变初始阶段的温室气体（CH₄和N₂O）排放特征及其关键影响因素。【方法】试验选取了长期种植水稻的双季稻田,将其中一部分转为蔬菜种植,另一部分继续种植水稻,每个处理设置了3个重复,按照当地常规模式进行管理。采用静态暗箱—气相色谱法连续3年进行田间原位观测,比较分析稻田和由稻田转变的菜地CH₄和N₂O排放特征及其年际变化差异,明确稻田转为菜地初始阶段CH₄和N₂O排放的关键影响因素。【结果】稻田是重要的CH₄排放源,其第一年的排放强度（183.91 kg CH₄-C·hm^-2?a^-1）明显低于后续两年（241.56—371.50 kg CH₄-C·hm^-2?a^-1）,这主要归功于后两年降雨量的增加引起了土壤水分含量的升高。稻田转为菜地显著减少了CH₄排放,减少量相当于稻田CH₄年累积排放量的83%—100%。菜地第一年的CH₄累积排放量（31.22 kg CH₄-C·hm^-2）显著高于第二年（0.45 kg CH₄-C·hm^-2）和第三年（0.89 kg CH₄-C·hm^-2）,表明稻田转菜地对CH₄排放的影响具有时间滞后效应。稻田是弱的N₂O排放源（1.35—3.49 kg N₂O-N·hm^-2?a^-1）,其转为菜地显著增强了N₂O排放。菜地第一年的N₂O累积排放量（95.12 kg N₂O-N·hm^-2）显著高于第二年（38.28 kg N₂O-N?hm^-2）和第三年（40.07 kg N₂O-N·hm^-2）。菜地土壤异养呼吸对N₂O排放的影响在第一年明显高于第二、三年,表明稻田转为蔬菜种植的第一年,有机质矿化对N₂O排放有重要贡献。在100年尺度CO₂当量下,稻田转为蔬菜种植第一和第二年的综合增温潜势（GWP）相对于稻田分别显著增加了390%和98%,主要是由于增加的N₂O增温潜势超过了减少的CH₄增温潜势。但是,稻田转为菜地的第三年,菜地的GWP（(16.72±3.25) Mg CO₂-eq·hm^-2）与稻田（(14.84±1.39) Mg CO₂-eq·hm^-2）相比无显著差异,主要是由于减少的CH₄ 增温潜势完全抵消了增加的N₂O增温潜势。这些研究结果表明稻田转菜地对GWP的影响主要集中在该土地利用方式转变的第一年。【结论】稻田转为菜地显著减少了CH₄排放,增加了N₂O排放,增强了菜地第一和第二年的综合增温潜势。有机质矿化过程对新转菜地第一年较高的N₂O排放有重要贡献。这些研究结果表明了评价土地利用方式转变初始阶段温室气体排放特征的重要性,便于及时采取有效管理措施缓解温室气体排放,实现环境友好型农业可持续生产。

Impact of grassland contract policy on soil organic carbon losses from alpine grassland on the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau

Carbon storage in the soils on the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau plays a very important role in the global carbon budget. In the 1990s, a policy of contracting collective grasslands to smaller units was implemented, resulting in a change from the traditional collective grassland management to two new management patterns: a multi‐household management pattern (MMP: grassland shared by several households without enclosures) and a single‐household management pattern (SMP: grassland enclosed and used by only one household). In 2016, 50 MMP and 54 SMP winter pastures on the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau were sampled to assess the differences in soil organic carbon (SOC) between the two management patterns. Results showed that average SOC was significantly greater under MMP than under SMP, with an estimated 0.41 Mg C/ha/yr lost due to SMP following the new grassland contract. Based on the government's grassland policy, four grassland utilization scenarios were developed for both summer and winter pastures. We found that if the grassland were managed under SMP, likely C losses ranged between 0.31 × 10⁷ and 6.15 × 10⁷ Mg C/yr across the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau relative to MMP, which more closely resembles pre‐1990s grassland management. Previous estimates of C losses have only considered land use change (with cover change) and ignored the impacts driven by land management pattern changes (without cover change). The new data suggest that C losses from the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau are greater than previously estimated, and therefore that the grassland contract policy should be reviewed and SMP households should be encouraged to reunite into the MMP. These findings have potential implications for land management strategies not only on the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau but also other grazing regions globally where such practices may exist.     

气候变化对中国水稻生产的影响研究进展

水稻生产系统是响应气候变化最敏感的农业生态系统之一,本文综述了当前和未来气候变化对我国水稻生产的影响。气候变化背景下,我国水稻生长季的热量资源增多,辐射资源减少,降水不均一性加大。高温热害、干旱、暴雨和洪涝灾害发生更频繁,这可能降低水、热资源的有效性。气候变化使我国单季稻和双季稻潜在种植边界显著北移,导致单季稻、早稻和晚稻的主要生育期缩短。基于统计模型和水稻生长模型的研究结果表明,如果不考虑品种改良和栽培技术的进步,气候变化使单季稻、早稻和晚稻产量下降,但不同稻作区和方法间存在差异。我国水稻生产重心北移、实测生育期延长和产量增加的变化趋势,反映了水稻生产系统通过种植分布调整、品种改良和技术改进来适应气候变化的能力。未来气候变化将进一步导致水稻生育期缩短和产量下降,对我国水稻生产和粮食安全带来严峻挑战。仍需加强气候变化影响机制的研究及其在影响评估中的应用,减小影响评估的不确定性并增加其系统性,为制定有效的应对策略提供可靠的理论支持。
