基于温度差监测西北地区的土壤相对湿度

在2012年黑河生态水文遥感试验（HiWATER）观测资料的基础上,结合卫星的地表温度产品计算观测点的垂直温度差及温度的日较差,并分析了不同时间尺度上温度差与浅层土壤相对湿度（包括土层深度2 cm,4 cm和10 cm的土壤相对湿度）的相关性。为检验温度差在区域含水量监测中的效果,利用经度、纬度和海拔高度对气温进行插值。同时为消除温度的区域性差异,将各温度差进行归一化处理,最后将归一化后的垂直温度差区域分布与土壤相对湿度进行了对比。结果表明:在各温度差中,地表温度和气温计算的垂直温度差与浅层土壤相对湿度的相关性最好;在时间尺度上,温度差与浅层土壤相对湿度的相关系数随时间尺度的增加而增大;在各土层深度中,温度差与4 cm的浅层土壤相对湿度相关性更好;在气温插值中,在纬度和海拔高度基础上插值出的气温与实测值之间更为接近;区域尺度上,归一化后的垂直温度差有效地解决了地理位置和下垫面对垂直温度差的影响,可以很好地监测月尺度上土壤湿度的变化的情况。     

秸秆还田对麦粱两熟农田土壤团聚体特征的短期效应

冬小麦—夏高粱种植系统作为一种新型农业两熟制系统,是山西省杂粮可持续发展的一项有效措施。为阐明该种植系统农田土壤团聚体粒级分布及稳定性对秸秆还田量的短期响应,试验基于麦粱种植系统,分析了不还田（CK）、半量还田（HR）和全量还田（WR）对土壤团聚体粒级分布特征和稳定指数的影响。结果表明:秸秆还田后,能够显著降低0—30 cm土层 > 10 mm和 < 0.25 mm粒级机械稳定性团聚体含量,增加0.25～2 mm各亚粒级水稳性大团聚体含量,同时显著降低了土壤团聚体破坏率和不稳定团粒指数（p < 0.05）;全量秸秆还田后较半量秸秆还田对农田土壤团聚体特征改善效果更为明显,但对10—20,20—30 cm土层改善效果逐渐减弱;全量还田相比半量还田,土壤机械稳定性团聚体平均重量直径、几何平均直径和大团聚体（> 0.25 mm）含量分别显著降低了12.2%,23.0%和5.3%,并显著提升了水稳性团聚体几何平均直径和大团聚体（> 0.25 mm）含量,降低了水稳性团聚体分形维数（p < 0.05）。此外,土壤团聚体稳定性与有机碳含量、孔隙度、含水量和作物产量呈显著正相关（p < 0.05）。综合表明,全量还田在短期年限内能够显著提高土壤团聚体稳定性,是改善晋中区麦粱两熟农田土壤团粒结构和增加作物产量的有效措施。

楠杆自然保护区不同植被类型土壤物理特性及涵养水源功能分析

为了研究楠杆自然保护区不同植被类型的土壤物理性质与涵养水源功能,选择了保护区6种典型的植被类型（落叶阔叶林、针阔混交林、针叶林、灌木林、竹林和草坡）下的土壤物理性质、土壤蓄水能力和土壤渗透能力等进行了研究,运用综合评价法对不同植被类型进行了综合评价。结果表明:6种不同植被类型的土壤密度为0.97 1.55 g/cm³,土壤总孔隙度为35.73%～69.25%,最大持水量为357.32~692.45 g/kg。不同植被类型的土壤物理性质、土壤蓄水能力和渗透能力有明显差异。综合评价分析表明:在不同植被类型中,落叶阔叶林（∑P_i²=0.468）土壤水源涵养功能最好,其次是竹林（∑P_i²=0.784）、针阔混交林（∑P_i²=0.914）、针叶林（∑P_i²=0.984）、灌木林（∑P_i²=1.005）,没有植被覆盖的草坡（∑P_i²=1.431）上的土壤水源涵养功能综合能力相对较差。     

长期施肥对水稻根系有机酸分泌和土壤有机碳组分的影响

本研究以江西省红壤研究所水稻土长期定位试验田(始于1981年)为对象,分析了不施肥(CK)、单施化肥(NPK)、有机无机配施(NPKM)3种施肥措施对水稻根系有机酸分泌速率及土壤有机碳组分的影响。结果表明:NPK和NPKM处理水稻根系分泌有机酸总量均显著高于CK处理(P0.05,下同),其中NPKM处理最高,提高了54.78%;相对于CK处理,NPK处理水稻根系酒石酸分泌速率显著增加,提高了82.63%,NPKM处理的草酸与苹果酸分泌速率显著增加,分别增加了69.93%、110.98%,而NPK和NPKM处理的柠檬酸分泌速率分别降低了36.57%与40.57%。与CK处理相比,NPKM处理土壤有机碳、颗粒有机碳、微生物生物量碳与可溶性有机碳均显著增加,而NPK处理却无显著变化;可溶性有机碳结构的进一步分析表明,NPKM处理促进了可溶性有机碳中类胡敏酸和类富里酸物质的累积,在可溶性有机碳中所占比例分别为31%、44%,NPK处理可溶性有机碳结构无明显变化;CK和NPK处理中可溶性有机碳的有机物来源主要是植物与微生物的混合源,而NPKM处理主要是微生物代谢所分泌的产物。     

冬油菜与杂草对长期不同施肥的差异性适应

研究长期水旱轮作条件下,施肥模式对田间冬油菜、杂草、土壤养分及冬油菜–杂草空间分布的影响,为长江流域冬油菜轻简化生产提供依据。2011年在湖北省粮油主产区——江汉平原布置水稻–冬油菜轮作肥效定位试验。2016年冬油菜收获期,调查农田杂草群落多样性和分析油菜–杂草–土壤养分三者状况。结果表明,长期土壤养分亏缺会显著影响油菜–杂草的生长和空间分布、形成不同的杂草优势群落。平衡施肥(NPK处理)有助于增加冬油菜根茎粗、有效分枝数、角果数和最终产量,降低杂草总生物量,提高杂草群落多样性Shannon-Wiener指数。与NPK处理相比,–N、–P和–K均会不同程度地降低籽粒、茎秆、角壳和杂草的养分吸收量,尤以–P处理降幅最为明显。与土壤养分含量的初始值相比,长期不施用化肥会引起土壤氮磷钾有效含量下降,尤其对于土壤钾,现有平衡施肥措施不足以弥补农田钾素亏缺,应重视秸秆还田的补钾效果。总之,长期科学的农田养分管理与调控措施,不仅可以降低杂草对冬油菜的危害、增强生物多样性和形成良性的油菜-杂草竞争环境,也有利于减少化学药剂使用、推动冬油菜的轻简化生产。     

Specific Responses of Soil Microbial Residue Carbon to Long-Term Mineral Fertilizer Applications to Reddish Paddy Soils

Mineral nutrient inputs to soil may alter microbial activity and consequently influence the accumulation of microbial residues. In this study, we investigated the effects of application rates and ratios of mineral fertilizers on the microbial residue carbon(MRC) of reddish paddy soils after long-term(15-year) fertilizer applications in southern China. Contents of three soil amino sugars as microbial residue contents were determined and MRC were calculated based on amino sugars. Results showed that three individual amino sugar contents increased as fertilizer application rates increased until maximum values were reached at a rate of 450-59-187 kg ha~(-1) year~(-1)(N-P-K). The three amino sugar contents then declined significantly under the highest mineral fertilizer application rate of 675-88-280 kg ha~(-1) year~(-1)(N-P-K). In addition, to enhance the microbial residue contents, it was more beneficial to double P(N:P:K= 1:0.26:0.41) in fertilizers applied to the P-deficient reddish paddy soils than to double either N(N:P:K = 2:0.13:0.41) or K(N:P:K= 1:0.13:0.82). The contents of the three individual amino sugars and microbial residues under different fertilizer application rates and ratios were significantly and positively correlated with soil organic carbon(SOC), total N, total P, and p H. Increases in values of the fungal C to bacterial C ratios showed that soil organic matter(SOM) stability increased because of the fertilizer applications over the past 15 years. The contents and ratios of amino sugars can be used as indicators to evaluate the impact of mineral fertilizer applications on SOM dynamics in subtropical paddy soils. The results indicated that fertilizer applications at a rate of 450-59-187 kg ha~(-1) year~(-1)(N-P-K) may improve crop yields, SOC contents, and SOC stability in subtropical paddy soils.     

Effect of Soil Organic Matter on Adsorption and Insecticidal Activity of Toxins from Bacillus thuringiensis

With the large-scale cultivation of transgenic crops expressing Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) insecticidal toxin in the world, the problem of environmental safety caused by these Bt crops has received extensive attention. The effects of soil organic matter (SOM) on the adsorption and insecticidal activity of Bt toxin in variable- and constant-charge soils (red and brown soils, respectively) were studied. Organic carbon in the soils was removed using hydrogen peroxide (H_2O_2). After H_2O_2 treatment, the SOM in the red and brown soils decreased by 71.26% and 82.82%, respectively. Mineral composition of the H_2O_2-treated soils showed no significant changes,but soil texture showed a slight change. After SOM removal, the cation exchange capacity (CEC) and pH decreased, while the specific surface area (SSA), point of zero charge (PZC), and zeta potential increased. The adsorption isotherm experiment showed that the Bt toxin adsorption on the natural and H_2O_2-treated soils fitted both the Langmuir model (R~2≥ 0.985 7) and the Freundlich model (R~2≥ 0.984 1), and the amount of toxin adsorbed on the H_2O_2-treated soils was higher than that on the natural soils. There was a high correlation between the maximum adsorption of Bt toxin and the PZC of soils (R~2= 0.935 7); thus, Bt toxin adsorption was not only influenced by SOM content, but also by soil texture, as well as the SSA, CEC, PZC, and zeta potential. The LC_(50) (lethal concentration required to kill 50% of the larvae) values for Bt toxin in the H_2O_2-treated soils were slightly lower than those in the natural soils, suggesting that the environmental risk from Bt toxin may increase if SOM decreases. As the measurement of insecticidal activity using insects is expensive and time consuming, a rapid and convenient in vitro method of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays is recommended for evaluating Bt toxin degradation in soils in future studies.     

Nitrous Oxide and Carbon Dioxide Emissions from Vietnamese Soil Amended with Different Compost Types at High Temperature

This study aims to determine the effects of compost additions and high temperature on N₂O and CO₂ emissions from a Vietnamese agricultural soil. Soil samples amended with two compost types (commercial compost, SH and chicken compost, CC) at three rates of 1%, 2% and 4% w/w were aerobically incubated at 25°C, 30°C and 35°C for 28 days in the laboratory. N₂O and CO₂ emissions were determined on days 1, 3, 5, 7, 14, 21 and 28. Our results showed that N₂O and CO₂ emissions were significantly affected by temperature, compost additions, and their interactions. Greater N₂O and CO₂ emissions were seen in CC treatments than SH treatments. Higher application rates of CC led to greater N₂O and CO₂ emissions. In SH treatments, higher temperature lowered N₂O emissions but did not affect CO₂ emissions. N₂O and CO₂ emissions were enhanced with CC addition while they showed different responses to increasing temperature.     

Influence of storage and drying methods on invertebrate elemental and isotopic measurements

Optimised pre-analytical methods for measuring the chemical properties of soil macro-organisms are needed. We tested the effects of ethanol immersion, freezer storage, and drying method on the reliability of estimates of key stoichiometric elements (carbon [C], nitrogen [N], phosphorus [P]) and abundances of ¹³C and ¹⁵N in samples of crickets (Acheta domestica), cockroaches (Nauphoeta cinerea) and mealworms (larval Tenebrio molitor). Ethanol immersion tended to increase A. domestica C and N, and reduced A. domestica P, relative to the reference treatment (deep freezing and oven drying). For N and P these effects were only present after 28-day ethanol immersion. Nauphoeta cinerea and T. molitor samples were generally unaffected by storage treatments, while δ¹³C and δ¹⁵N were not affected by any storage treatment for any species. Thus, five days of ethanol immersion may be acceptable prior to elemental and stoichiometric analyses of hard-bodied soil invertebrates in comparative studies.
