干旱区盐碱地滴灌土壤基质势对土壤盐分分布的影

该文通过田间试验研究覆膜滴灌条件下土壤基质势对土壤盐分分布的影响。试验设3个水平的土壤基质势处理： -5 kPa (S1),-15 kPa (S2) 和-25 kPa (S3),每个处理重复3次,按随机区组布置。试验结果表明：垄作覆膜滴灌条件下各盐分离子的迁移和分布特性不同。Na+ 和Cl- 易被灌溉水淋洗,主要分布在湿润体的边缘,在滴头附近含量最低,远离滴头含量逐渐增大,土壤基质势越高,淋洗效果越明显,离子含量和土壤总盐量呈线性相关。Mg2+、Ca2+、HCO3-含量受土壤基质势影响较小,在土壤剖面分布相对均匀,离子含量和土壤总盐量之间没有明显相关关系。盐渍化土壤中总盐分的淋洗主要受到作物播种时第一次大水量灌溉和苗期阶段较高土壤基质势控制的灌溉影响,作物生育中后期不同土壤基质势处理对土壤总盐分的淋洗影响较小。该研究结果对盐碱地水盐调控和灌溉制度的制定具有理论意义和应用价值。     

不同灌溉方式对保护地土壤酸化特征的影响

自连续13a在同一地块以不同灌溉方式进行灌溉试验的保护地,分层采集沟灌、滴灌、渗灌3个处理0～60cm土层土壤样品,研究灌溉方式对土壤酸化特征的影响。结果表明,3种灌溉处理土壤活性酸度和交换性酸含量均随着土层加深而降低,各处理间土壤活性酸度在0～40cm土层差异明显,总体为沟灌>渗灌>滴灌;土壤交换性酸差异出现在0～30cm土层,为渗灌>沟灌>滴灌;土壤交换性Al3+随土层加深呈先增加后降低的变化趋势,且以滴灌含量最低。各处理土壤盐基饱和度(BS)随土层加深而增加,在0～30cm土层为滴灌>渗灌>沟灌。土壤pH与交换性酸、硝态氮含量呈极显著负相关,与盐基饱和度、特别是Ca2+饱和度呈极显著正相关;Al3+占交换性酸比例与有机质含量呈极显著负相关。总之,保护地土壤酸化与硝态氮含量、盐基饱和度、有机质含量关系密切;与沟灌和渗灌相比,滴灌更利于抑制土壤酸化。     

Efficiency of Nitrogen Fertilizer for Potato under Fertigation Utilizing a Nitrogen Tracer Technique

Abstract

Efficient crop use of nitrogen (N) fertilizer is critical from economic and environmental viewpoints, especially under irrigated conditions. Nitrogen fertilizer (¹⁵N‐labeled urea) and irrigation methods (drip and furrow) were evaluated on spring and fall potato cultivars under Syrian Mediterranean climatic conditions. Field experiments were conducted in the El‐Ghab Valley near Hama in fall 2000 and spring 2001 on a heavy clay soil. Four N‐fertilizer applications (70, 140, 210, and 280 kg N/ha) were applied in five equally split treatments for both irrigation methods. Potato was irrigated when soil moisture in the specified active root depth reached 80% of the field capacity as indicated by the neutron probe.

Higher marketable tuber yield of spring potato was obtained by fertigation compared to furrow irrigation; the magnitude of tuber yield increases was 4, 2, 31, and 13%, whereas for fall potato the tuber yield increases were 13, 27, 20, and 35% for N fertilizer rates of 70, 140, 210, and 280 kg N/ha, respectively. Shoot dry matter and tuber yields at the bulking stage were not good parameters to estimate marketable tuber yield. The effect of N treatments on potato yield with furrow irrigation and fertigation was limited and not significant. Drip fertigation improved tuber yield of fall potato relative to national average yield. Nitrogen uptake increased with increasing N input under both irrigation methods. Reducing N input under both irrigation methods improved N recoveries. Increasing N input significantly increased total N content in plant tissues at the bulking stage. Spring potato yields were almost double those of fall potato under both irrigation methods and all N treatments.

Nitrate (NO₃) movement in the soil solution for fall potato was monitored using soil solution extractors. Furrow irrigation resulted in greater movements of NO₃‐N below the rooting zone than drip fertigation.

Harvest index did not follow a clear trend but tended to decrease upon increasing N fertilization rates beyond 140 kg N/ha under both irrigation methods. Drip fertigation improved field water‐use efficiencies at the bulking and harvest stages. Fertigation increased specific gravity of potato tubers relative to furrow irrigation. Higher N input decreased specific gravity of potato tubers under both irrigation methods.     

不同灌水量对黄河三角洲盐碱地改良效果研究

通过室内土柱模拟试验,研究不同灌水量对盐渍土的改良效果。试验共设计3个不同灌水量,分别为S1 (200 mm)、S2 (300 mm)、S3 (400 mm)。结果表明:(1)灌溉淋洗对0—40 cm土壤盐分淋失影响较大,其中0—20 cm脱盐率最高,表现为S3S2S1,不同处理在剖面上均出现积盐,S1、S2在40—60 cm出现积盐,说明低灌水量对土壤表层盐分具有淋洗作用,但会造成底层土壤盐分累积;(2)K~+、Na~+、Ca~(2+)、Mg~(2+)、Cl~-、SO_4~(2-)、HCO_3~-含量在灌水后有较大幅度的下降,且整体溶脱率随灌溉水量的增加而增加。各离子在0—20 cm随灌水量增加表现为不同的变化规律,Ca~(2+)先溶脱后积累,HCO_3~-变化规律与Ca~(2+)相反,表现为先积累后溶脱,其他离子均随灌水量的增加而减少;(3)灌水后,S1、S2的pH在剖面上的分布与灌水前相似,0—40 cm土壤总碱度随灌水量增加呈先增后减的趋势,表现为先碱化再脱碱,与土壤pH变化一致。研究成果可为盐碱地改良和节水灌溉提供参考。     

The effect of potassium chloride on ion dynamics and – budget in a slightly acidic forest soil

In a laboratory study, KCI- a neutral salt - equivalent to 300kg K/ha and 272 kg CI/ha was applied to the surface of undisturbed columns of a forest soil (Terra Fusca Rendzina) under steady state unsaturated flow conditions (1.0 cm/day). The effluent of the five soil columns was collected daily, and pH, cation- and anion concentrations were measured. Most of the applied K ions were retained in the top 10cm of the soil and moved in decreasing amounts further down the column. Among the cations studied Ca⁺⁺, Mg⁺⁺, and Na⁺ were lost from the system, K⁺, NH₄, Fe⁺⁺⁺, Mn⁺⁺, H⁺, and Al⁺⁺⁺ were retained. Nitrate and sulfate concentrations in the leachates showed a temporary decrease when CI passed through the columns. This decrease was accompanied with a decrease in pH. CI^?, NO₃^?, and SO₄^? exhibited leaching losses. Besides these anions, HCO₃^? played an important role.     

微咸水滴灌条件下不同盐分离子在土壤中的分布特征

开展田间试验研究微咸水滴灌条件下不同盐分离子在土壤中的分布特征。试验采用5个水平的微咸水灌溉处理：电导率分别为1.1 dS/m(K1),2.2 dS/m(K2),2.9 dS/m(K3),3.5 dS/m(K4)和4.2 dS/m(K5),重复3次,按随机区组布置。试验结果表明：滴灌条件下各种盐分离子的迁移速度与分布特性不同,Ca²⁺、Mg²⁺与SO^2-₄易于被灌溉水分淋洗,主要分布在湿润体外围,而HCO^-₃、Na⁺与Cl^-主要分布在湿润体内部。生育期内土壤剖面上的平均盐分含量没有增加,但对土壤结构与作物有重要影响,Cl^-、Na⁺、HCO^-₃有增加的趋势。     

Effect of irrigation methods on urea phosphate reactions in calcareous soils

Abstract

Urea phosphate (17–44–0) (UP) was injected in surface placed drip irrigation lines, subsurface placed drip irrigation lines (15 cm below soil surface), or band under furrow irrigation on a calcareous soil. In drip irrigation, UP was split in two applications, two weeks apart, to give a total rate of 50 kg P₂O₅/ha. The furrow rate was 100 kg P₂O₅/ha in a single application. Soil analysis one month after the first injection of UP showed high levels of available P (NaHCO₃ extractable) around the drip emitters. Considerable P mobility in the soil was detected within 20 cm from the emitters. Banding UP under the furrow did not leave any measurable levels of available P by the end of the experiment. Soil NO₃‐N levels were comparable in all fertilized irrigation treatments, and were higher than the levels under an unfertilized furrow. Soil pH was reduced by 0.5 units around the drip emitters, but no change was measurable under furrow irrigation. Soluble salts (ECe) were concentrated in the top 10 cm of the soil surface in all the fertilized irrigation methods. Split application of UP in subsurface drip irrigation provided the longest residual and best distribution of available P in a calcareous soil.

Interactive Effect of Soil Salinity and Water Stress on Growth and Chemical Compositions of Pistachio Nut Tree

ABSTRACT

The effects of three sodium chloride (NaCl) levels (0, 1200, and 2400 mg kg^{? 1} soil) and three irrigation intervals (3, 7, and 14 d) on the growth and chemical composition of two Pistacia vera rootstocks (‘Sarakhs’ and ‘Qazvini’) were investigated under greenhouse conditions. Eight-week-old pistachio seedlings were gradually exposed to salt stress which afterward, water stress was initiated. At any irrigation interval, plant height and shoot and root dry weights of both rootstocks were reduced with increasing salinity. However, increasing irrigation intervals alleviated the adverse effects of soil salinity. A negative relationship observed between relative shoot growth and electrical conductivity of soil saturation extract (EC_e) confirmed the above findings. Under 3-d irrigation interval, the EC_e required to cause a 50% growth reduction was lower than those under 7- and/or 14-d irrigation intervals. Shoot and root chemical analyses indicated that the salinity as well as irrigation regime affected the concentration and distribution of sodium (Na⁺), potassium (K⁺), and chloride (Cl^?) in pistachio. The concentration of Na⁺, K⁺ and C1^? ions increased with a rise in NaCl level, and was generally declined with increasing irrigation interval. Based on plant height, shoot and root dry weights and the concentrations of Na⁺, K⁺, and C1^? in the plant tissues, at lowest irrigation intervals ‘Sarakhs’ shows a higher sensitivity to soil salinity than ‘Qazvini’, but with increasing irrigation interval, ‘Sarakhs’ and ‘Qazvini’ can be classified as resistant and sensitive to salinity, respectively.     

Influence of Different Forms of Iron and Aluminum on the Nature of Soil Acidity of Some Inceptisols,Alfisols, and Ultisols

Abstract

Fifteen acid soils of Mizoram representing Ultisols and Inceptisols, and Madhya Pradesh, representing Alfisols, were studied to characterize the nature of acidity in relation to different forms of iron (Fe) and aluminum (Al). The mean contents of Fe and Al were extracted by various extracting reagents and were found to be in descending order as followed: dithionite>oxalate>pyrophosphate>ammonium acetate>KCl. The electrostatically bonded EB‐H⁺ and EB‐Al³⁺ acidity comprised 28.3 and 71.7% of exchangeable acidity whereas EB‐H⁺, EB‐Al³⁺, exchangeable, and pH‐dependent acidities comprised 9.8, 30.7, 40.5, and 59.5% of total potential acidity. All forms, of acidity showed significant correlation with pH_k and organic carbon. Among the different forms, Fe and Al caused most of the variations in different forms of soil acidity but the effect of different forms of Al are more active and directly participate in the formation of EB‐H⁺, EB‐Al³⁺, and exchangeable acidity.     

不同土地利用方式对黑土胶散复合体的影响及与酸度的关系

以吉林省黑土玉米带区域内10对长期定位采样点的2种土地利用方式土壤(耕作黑土和防护林带黑土)为研究对象,采用胶散分组法提取土壤胶散复合体,探究长期不同利用方式对黑土胶散复合体和酸度的影响。结果表明:耕作黑土与防护林带黑土均表现为G_0与G_2组的绝对含量增加,G_1组的绝对含量下降,复合体总量分别下降了3.88%和0.28%。耕作黑土和防护林带黑土pH分别平均下降12.12%和3.77%,有机碳含量在耕作黑土和防护林带黑土中分别平均下降23.17%和9.00%,2种利用方式土壤的胡敏酸、富里酸、交换性钙离子和碳酸钙均出现下降;耕作黑土分别平均下降12.18%,3.53%,16.29%,31.53%;防护林带黑土分别平均下降20.07%,13.14%,2.81%,7.81%。G_1组与pH、HA、Ca~(2+)和CaCO_3呈极显著正相关,与FA呈显著负相关;G_2组与pH、HA、Ca~(2+)和CaCO_3呈极显著负相关。pH与HA、Ca~(2+)和CaCO_3呈极显著正相关,与FA呈显著负相关。经过11年的变化,黑土胶散复合体稳定性下降,相比非耕作状态下黑土,耕作模式下的黑土胶散复合体稳定性下降更为严重,胶散复合体总量下降的更多,酸度下降更为明显。Ca~(2+)和HA的变化是影响黑土土壤酸化和土壤团聚体稳定性的主要驱动因素。土壤酸化的结果使土壤胶散复合体数量减少,稳定性变差。     

咸水结冰灌溉结合改良剂对滨海盐土的改良作用

冬季咸水结冰灌溉是将冬季自然冷资源与滨海盐碱地区丰富的咸水资源相结合, 通过自然结冰使咸淡分离, 再利用结冰融化时咸水先流出淡水后流出会对土壤起到一定的洗盐作用的原理, 对盐碱地进行改良。本文通过大田试验, 研究了冬季咸水结冰灌溉及改良剂对天津滨海盐碱地水盐运移的影响。结果表明, 通过咸水结冰灌溉能降低根层土壤含盐量, 且灌溉水量与土壤含水量呈正相关。冬季咸水结冰灌溉初期可能会引起土壤碱化, 但随着冰层融化及时间的推移, 各处理的碱化趋势会逐渐消弱。在滨海盐土施用磷石膏能够降低HCO₃^-含量, 增加SO₄^2-、Ca²⁺含量, 有效降低Cl^-、Na⁺在总盐分中的比例, 且磷石膏施用量越大, 根层土壤的pH 越低、保水能力越强(7 500 kg·hm^-2 磷石膏>4 500 kg·hm^-2 磷石膏); 施用磷石膏和大水量的咸水结冰灌溉都能很好地促进柽柳生长,且咸水冬季结冰灌溉和施用磷石膏配合(1 350 m³·hm^-2 结冰灌溉+7 500 kg·hm^-2 磷石膏)效果最好。因此, 咸水结冰灌溉配合改良剂应用可有效改良滨海盐土, 改善因咸水结冰灌溉而带来的土壤碱化问题, 为早期植物萌发生长提供有利条件。     

宽垄沟播种植模式对夏玉米生长发育及水分利用率的影响

探讨水地条件下种植模式对夏玉米产量及水分利用的影响,为夏玉米节水种植高产稳产栽培提供依据。以玉米品种"登海685"为试验材料,研究宽垄沟播和等行距平播模式下不同种植密度(6.00,6.75,7.50万株/hm~2)对夏玉米生长发育、产量、养分吸收及水分利用率的影响。结果表明:沟播种植模式较平播增加玉米植株株高,使茎粗和单株干物质重降低。沟播模式的穗性状比平播处理较优,单穗重增加,且受种植密度影响较小,表现出明显的边行优势。沟播模式的玉米叶片叶绿素相对含量始终高于平播处理,生育期延长,为后期籽粒形成提供了物质保障。在种植密度为7.50万株/hm~2时,沟播模式夏玉米产量最高。沟播模式下夏玉米灌水量较平播减少52.9%,灌水时间减少50.1%,日均蒸发量减少,且水分含量高于平播处理,使灌溉水利用效率提高139.5%,水分利用效率平均提高16.7%。可见,宽垄沟播是夏玉米增产增效的一种节水种植模式,明显提高玉米水分利用效率。     

Influence of nitrogen fertilizer forms and crop straw biochars on soil exchange properties and maize growth on an acidic Ultisol

Effects of repeated application of urea (UN) and calcium nitrate (CN) singly and together with crop straw biochars on soil acidity and maize growth were investigated with greenhouse pot experiments for two consecutive seasons. Canola straw biochar (CB), peanut straw biochar (PB) and wheat straw biochar (WB) were applied at 1% of dried soil weight in the first season. N fertilizers were applied at 200 mg N kg^?1. In UN treatments, an initial rise in pH was subjected to proton consumption through urea hydrolysis, afterwards nitrification of NH₄⁺ caused drastic reductions in pH as single UN had soil pH of 3.70, even lower than control (4.27) after the 2nd crop season. Post-harvest soil analyses indicated that soil pH, soil exchangeable acidity, NH₄⁺, NO₃^? and total base cations showed highly significant variation under N and biochar types (P < 0.05). Articulated growth of plants under combined application with biochars was expressed by 22.7%, 22.5%, and 35.7% higher root and 25.6%, 23.8%, and 35.9% higher shoot biomass by CB, PB and WB combined with CN over UN, respectively. Therefore, CN combined with biochars is a better choice to correct soil acidity and improve maize growth than UN combined with biochars.     

不同措施对河套灌区重度盐渍土改良效果

为了探究不同灌溉模式施加不同改良剂对河套灌区重度盐渍土的改良效果,设置秸秆深埋(SL)、石膏+有机肥(SF)、对照(CK)3个处理,对河套灌区重度盐渍土土壤盐分在0-70 cm剖面上的分布特点进行研究。结果表明:不同灌溉模式,SL和SF处理在0-15 cm土层均有效降低土壤pH,随改良时间延长改良深度增加pH持续降低,有一定的长效性,滴灌SL与SF处理pH较CK分别下降0.35,0.49,黄灌下降0.42,1.33,对30-70 cm土层影响较小。SF处理碱化度第2年下降达43%,SL处理为40%,滴灌更利于碱化度降低。从抑制盐分积累来看,SL与SF处理能有效抑制盐分0-15 cm土层聚集,黄灌SL与SF处理较CK分别下降13.60%,7.70%,滴灌分别下降31.60%,6.90%,SL处理抑盐效果较显著。土壤盐基离子表明,不同灌溉模式,SL与SF处理均显著降低0-15 cm土层Na~+与HCO_3~-的含量,滴灌降低比例高于黄灌,随着改良时间延长效果越显著,15-70 cm土层无明显变化。石膏加有机肥的施入提高0-70 cm土层SO_4~(2-)、Ca~(2+)及Cl~-的含量。通过对比分析,对河套灌区重度盐渍土治理而言,秸秆深埋和石膏+有机肥均能有效抑制重度盐渍土土壤积盐,有效降低pH及碱化度。整体来看,滴灌模式下石膏+有机肥改良效果优于秸秆深埋。     

Modeling the Requirements of Agricultural Limestone in Acid Sulfate Soils of Brazil and Colombia

The aim of this study was to model the determination of the amount of agricultural limestone necessary to correct acidification in acid sulfate soils (ASS). This study used 14 equations and the chemical variables of the soils including pH, soil organic matter (SOM), potential acidity (H+ Al), sum of bases (BS), potential acidity (T), base saturation (V) and exchangeable Al with KCl. The results indicated that in the studied, the lowest requirements for doses of limestone (DL) were described by the equations DL = 2.906((H+ Al) (45-V)/100)°⁸⁰, DL = 0.08 + 1.22Al_KCl, DL = 0.6T – BS, and DL = 1.5Al_KCl, with mean values of 29.5, 30.5, 31.5 and 37.4 t ha^?1. In addition, the models with the best correlation for determining the limestone requirements to obtain 80% of the maximum production of sorghum (dry matter) were DL = ?1.43 + 0.9237 (SOM (6-pH)) and DL = ?0.022 + 2.7425 ((H+ Al) (45-V)/100).     

Response of Cotton to Irrigation Methods and Nitrogen Fertilization: Yield Components,Water‐Use Efficiency,Nitrogen Uptake,and Recovery

Efficient crop use of nitrogen (N) fertilizer is critical from economic and environmental viewpoints, especially under irrigated conditions. Cotton yield parameters, fiber quality, water‐ and N‐use efficiency responses to N, and irrigation methods in northern Syria were evaluated. Field trials were conducted for two growing seasons on a Chromoxerertic Rhodoxeralf. Treatments consisted of drip fertigation, furrow irrigation, and five different rates of N fertilizer (50, 100, 150, 200, and 250 kg N /ha). Cotton was irrigated when soil moisture in the specified active root depth was 80% of the field capacity as indicated by the neutron probe.

Seed cotton yield was higher than the national average (3,928 kg/ha) by at least 12% as compared to all treatments. Lint properties were not negatively affected by the irrigation method or N rates. Water savings under drip fertigation ranged between 25 and 50% of irrigation water relative to furrow irrigation. Crop water‐use efficiencies of the drip‐fertigated treatments were in most cases 100% higher than those of the corresponding furrow‐irrigated treatments. The highest water demand was during the fruit‐setting growth stage. It was also concluded that under drip fertigation, 100–150 N kg/ha was adequate and comparable with the highest N rates tested under furrow irrigation regarding lint yield, N uptake, and recovery. Based on cotton seed yield and weight of stems, the overall amount of N removed from the field for the drip‐fertigated treatments ranged between 101 and 118kg and 116 and 188 N/ha for 2001 and 2002, respectively. The N removal ranged between 94 and 113 and 111 and 144 kg N/ha for the furrow‐irrigated treatments for 2001 and 2002, respectively.     

Using Organic Matter with Chemical Amendments to Improve Calcareous Sodic Soil

Abstract

Kangping soil in northeast China is a sodic soil characterized by a high pH and excessive sodium. The high pH and excessive sodium in sodic soils generally cause loss of soil structure, reduce hydraulic conductivity (HC), increase soil hardness, and make the soil unproductive land. After we mixed organic matter (rice straw) and chemical amendments (H₂SO₄, CaSO₄, and FeSO₄), a column experiment was conducted to evaluate the physical and chemical properties of the soil influenced by the changes in HC, penetrability of soil s`urface, pH, electrical conductivity, CO₃ ^2‐, HCO₃ ^?, Ca²⁺, Na⁺, sodium adsorption rate (SAR), available phosphorus (P) and iron (Fe), and leached P.

Organic matter decreased the concentrations of CO₃ ^2‐, HCO₃ ^?, and Na⁺ in soil solution and increased the total volume of the leachate. Organic matter also reduced the amount of available Fe and increased the available P. However, organic matter did not affect the penetrability of the soil surface as much as soil hardness, HC, and SAR within the short period of this experiment. Among the chemical amendments, H₂SO₄ and FeSO₄ were more effective than CaSO₄ to restore HC, electrical conductivity, Na⁺, and SAR. The chemical amendments, compared with organic matter, significantly leached P from the soil in this study, but the leaching was independent of the concentration of available P in the soil. The CaSO₄ had the strongest effect in increasing leached P from the soil without changing the concentration of available P in the soil. Organic matter with added CaSO₄ leached P from the soil more than all other treatments.     

浙江省嘉兴市郊水稻土酸度比较研究

2008年对嘉兴市郊339个水稻土土壤酸度分析结果表明,水稻土耕层酸度由1982年的中性为主降至目前的微酸性为主,各土种之间差异不大。其变酸原因是由于双季稻改种单季稻后,排水落干时间增长,耕层中大量亚铁氧化所引起,而不是施化肥之故。此原因也由灌水种稻后pH值有所升高、水田改种旱作后pH值显著降低所证实。     

Some relationships between quality of irrigation waters and chemical characteristics of irrigated soils of the Nagaur district,Rajasthan

Studies were conducted on the effects of waters of different quality on the chemical characteristics of 74 surface and subsurface soils of the Nagaur district, Rajasthan. The electrical conductivity (EC) of the saturation extract of these sandy and loamy sand soils were found to be less than that of the irrigation water. Correlations were observed between EC and the constituent ions (Na⁺, Ca²⁺ and Mg²⁺ of the irrigation water and of the saturation extract of the soil samples. The pH values of the irrigation water and soil suspensions also showed a positive correlation. The carbonate and bicarbonate ion concentrations in both the irrigation water and the saturation extract of the soils correlated with their respective pH values. EC of both the irrigation water and the saturation extract from surface and subsurface soil layers correlated with total cations. Correlations between the chemical characteristics of the irrigation water and the saturation extract of the soils are of limited value for prediction purposes, due to other factors operating under field conditions.
