Biochar addition can change the physiochemical properties of soil, thus likely influencing soil’s resistance to rill flow (reflected by rill erodibility (Kr, s m−1) and critical shear stress (τc, Pa). However, the persistent time effects of biochar on Kr and τc have remained unexplored. This study aimed to assess the impact of biochar composed of apple branches on Kr and τc, and to investigate the relationships between Kr, τc and soil properties. The undisturbed soil core samples to a depth of 5 cm were collected from field plots that had received biochar at rates of 0, 1, 2.5, 4, 5.5, and 7 % (w/w) after 1, 2, and 3 years, respectively. The Kr and τc of these samples were evaluated through a flume experiment, with scouring soil samples under three flow discharges (e.g., 0.00025, 0.00045, and 0.00065 m−3 s−1) and five slope gradients (e.g., 5.24, 8.75, 17.63, 26.79, and 40.40 %). The results revealed that the ranges of Kr and τc for no biochar treatments varied from 0.1947 to 0.2107 s m−1 and 1.6971–1.7314 Pa, with the averaged values of 0.2007 s m−1 and 1.7100 Pa, respectively. Compared with no biochar addition, the addition of 1–4 % biochar after 1–2 years generally resulted in a reduction in Kr ranging from 20 % to 59 %, while increasing τc by 2–4 %. Conversely, 5.5 and 7 % biochar addition increased Kr by 31 and 5 %, and reduced τc by 12 and 6 %. All biochar treatments after 3 years resulted in a 51 % reduction in Kr and a 5 % increase in τc relative to bare soil, showing an increasing trend with an increasing biochar addition rate. The fluctuations in Kr and τc could be elucidated by changes in cohesion (COH) and mean weight diameter of soil aggregates (MWD), with COH (total effect of −0.32 and 0.17, P<0.01) and MWD (total effect of −0.13 and 0.37, P<0.01) serving as reliable estimators of Kr and τc during the 1–2 years following biochar addition. After biochar addition for 3 years, total organic carbon (TOC) (total effect of −0.45 and 0.10, P<0.01) emerged as a significant factor influencing Kr and τc, making TOC a potential predictor of Kr and τc. The results demonstrate that biochar may be an effective measure for enhancing soil resistance to erosion on the Loess Plateau, especially when applied over the long term.
生物炭的添加可改变土壤的理化性质,从而可能影响土壤对碾压流的阻力(通过碾压侵蚀性(Kr,s m-1)和临界剪切应力(τc,Pa)反映出来)。然而,生物炭对 Kr 和 τc 的持续时间影响仍未得到探索。本研究旨在评估由苹果树枝组成的生物炭对 Kr 和 τc 的影响,并研究 Kr、τc 和土壤特性之间的关系。研究人员分别在施用生物炭 0%、1%、2.5%、4%、5.5% 和 7%(重量比)1 年、2 年和 3 年后的田间地块采集了深度为 5 厘米的未扰动土壤核心样本。通过水槽实验,在三种流量(如 0.00025、0.00045 和 0.00065 m-3 s-1)和五种坡度(如 5.24、8.75、17.63、26.79 和 40.40 %)下冲刷土壤样本,对这些样本的 Kr 和 τc 进行了评估。结果显示,无生物炭处理的 Kr 和 τc 范围分别为 0.1947 至 0.2107 s m-1 和 1.6971 至 1.7314 Pa,平均值分别为 0.2007 s m-1 和 1.7100 Pa。与不添加生物炭相比,1-2 年后添加 1-4 % 的生物炭通常会使 Kr 降低 20 % 至 59 %,同时使 τc 增加 2-4%。相反,5.5% 和 7% 的生物炭添加量分别使 Kr 增加了 31% 和 5%,τc 减少了 12% 和 6%。与裸土相比,3 年后所有生物炭处理都会导致 Kr 减少 51%,τc 增加 5%,并随着生物炭添加量的增加而呈上升趋势。内聚力(COH)和土壤团聚体平均重量直径(MWD)的变化可以解释 Kr 和 τc 的波动,其中 COH(总影响为 -0.32 和 0.17,P<0.01)和 MWD(总影响为 -0.13 和 0.37,P<0.01)是生物炭添加后 1-2 年期间 Kr 和 τc 的可靠估算指标。添加生物炭 3 年后,总有机碳(TOC)(总效应为-0.45 和 0.10,P<0.01)成为影响 Kr 和 τc 的重要因素,使 TOC 成为 Kr 和 τc 的潜在预测因子。结果表明,生物炭可能是提高黄土高原土壤抗侵蚀能力的有效措施,尤其是在长期应用的情况下。

Organic matter (OM) injection into subsoil is expected to improve subsoil properties and thus increase crop nutrient and water uptake from the subsoil. Nevertheless, detailed knowledge of the fate and persistence of injected OM in subsoil does not yet exist. For this study, we sampled a field experiment, where two types of compost of different composition (Bio-waste compost and Green-waste compost, differing in carbon:nitrogen ratio) had been injected into the subsoil at three application amounts each (3, 5, and 7 kg dry mass m−1), and assessed the distribution of soil organic carbon (SOC) into different density fractions, the temperature sensitivity of soil respiration (Q10), and microbial necromass in subsoil. The results demonstrate that both Bio-waste and Green-waste compost injections enhanced the SOC stock, respiration rates, and temperature sensitivity in both top- and subsoil. In the subsoil, respiration rates were increased by 78 %, simultaneously compost addition enhanced microbial growth (increase in fungal residues by 123 %) but also increased the amount of carbon (C) in the mineral fraction. Significant differences in the δ13C values of density fractions and Q10 values were only detected between compost types rather than the amount of injected compost. Especially the Bio-waste compost with a narrower C:N ratio contributed to slightly greater soil labile C content, and ultimately elevated respiration rates in the subsoil. Hence, the fate of subsoil incorporated C is controlled by its composition rather than by the injected amount. Moreover, a higher contribution of fungal necromass C to the increase in Q10 values after compost injection was observed in the present study than for bacterial necromass C, suggesting that fungi are largely responsible for the final, enhanced storage of the C injected.
向底土注入有机物(OM)有望改善底土性质,从而提高作物对底土养分和水分的吸收。然而,关于注入的有机质在底土中的归宿和持久性的详细知识尚不存在。在这项研究中,我们进行了一项田间试验取样,将两种不同成分的堆肥(生物废料堆肥和绿色废料堆肥,碳氮比不同)以三种施用量(3、5 和 7 千克干重 m-1)注入底土,并评估了底土中土壤有机碳(SOC)在不同密度组分中的分布、土壤呼吸的温度敏感性(Q10)和微生物死亡量。结果表明,生物废料和绿色废料堆肥的注入都提高了表层和底层土壤的 SOC 储量、呼吸速率和温度敏感性。在底土中,呼吸速率提高了 78%,同时堆肥的添加促进了微生物的生长(真菌残留物增加了 123%),但也增加了矿物部分的碳(C)含量。只有在堆肥类型之间,而不是在堆肥注入量之间,才能检测到密度组分的 δ13C 值和 Q10 值的显著差异。尤其是 C:N 比值较小的生物废料堆肥,其土壤中的可变 C 含量略高,并最终提高了底土的呼吸速率。因此,底土中融入的碳的去向受其成分而非注入量的控制。此外,在本研究中观察到,在堆肥注入后,真菌新陈代谢产生的碳对 Q10 值增加的贡献率高于细菌新陈代谢产生的碳,这表明真菌在很大程度上对注入的碳的最终贮存起到了促进作用。

In a first, we used Preference Ranking Organization Method and Geometrical Analysis for Interactive Aid (PROMETHEE-GAIA) tool in agricultural research for identifying the best management decision with weakening factors for cultivation of mustard following rice under fifteen regimes of conservation agriculture (CA) practices, because of its versatility, simplicity and usefulness. We created the regime of CA practices based on energy spent for raising the crop combining different tillage practices viz., reduced tillage and zero tillage, and quantity of crop residues and fertilizer application. The performance of the CA regimes was evaluated over the conventional ones using conflicting criteria (31) related to soil, agronomy, plant protection, energy use and economics. With the PROMETHEE-II method, we found zero tillage with 100 % residue plus 75 % NPK (ZERO3) as the best performing alternative, while GAIA analysis identified ZERO3 and zero tillage with 50 % residue plus 100 % NPK (ZERO4). On integration, PROMETHEE-GAIA helped the decision makers to segregate the effects of the criteria on the outcome creating a scope for maneuvering the weak links for optimizing the performance of mustard crop under different CA-regimes. The tool has a huge potential for use in multi-factorial agricultural research.
由于偏好排序组织法和交互式辅助几何分析(PROMETHEE-GAIA)工具的多功能性、简便性和实用性,我们首次在农业研究中使用了该工具,以确定在 15 种保护性耕作(CA)方法下种植芥菜的最佳管理决策。我们根据作物生长所耗费的能量,结合不同的耕作方式(即减少耕作和零耕作)以及作物残留物和施肥量,创建了保护性耕作方法体系。采用与土壤、农艺、植物保护、能源使用和经济学有关的相互冲突的标准(31),对传统农业耕作制度的性能进行了评估。通过 PROMETHEE-II 方法,我们发现 100%秸秆加 75%氮磷钾的零耕作(ZERO3)是效果最好的替代方案,而 GAIA 分析则确定了 ZERO3 和 50%秸秆加 100%氮磷钾的零耕作(ZERO4)。在整合方面,PROMETHEE-GAIA 帮助决策者区分了标准对结果的影响,为在不同的 CA 制度下优化芥菜作物的表现提供了操作薄弱环节的空间。该工具在多因素农业研究中具有巨大的应用潜力。

Shallow groundwater is a key variable of the hydrological cycle and has significant impacts on the components of energy, carbon, and water balances. Moreover, shallow saline groundwater plays a critical role in secondary soil salinization. Therefore, comprehensive information on spatial distribution of shallow water table depth is fundamental for effective land management and sustainable development. But determining it by conventional methods is time-consuming and financially costly in large areas. Shallow groundwater naturally has signatures at the land surface, and it can be parameterized by properties inferred from satellite-based surface data. Against this background, this study is to introduce a novel approach and framework for Digital Shallow Water Table Mapping (DSWTM). The efficiency and performance of the proposed DSWTM was assessed by different covariate sets and employing different predictive models. In the DSWTM framework, remote sensing spectral/thermal indices, geographic and trend data were used as covariates and the PLSR, M5, Cubist, and RF algorithms were employed as predictive models under four scenarios. For two high-performance models in each scenario, the water table depth maps were generated, and associated uncertainties were quantified using the bootstrapping technique at a spatial resolution of 30 m. The results revealed that the prediction accuracies of each predictive model were constantly increasing from the first to the fourth scenario. Moreover, the Cubist and RF models had higher performance than PLSR and M5 in all scenarios. The uncertainties’ of prediction maps generated by Cubist and RF models were decreased from the first to the fourth scenarios. The RF generated maps in all scenarios had the lowest uncertainty and provided accurate prediction maps compared to Cubist. The RF as a predictive model showed the highest ability and is recommended to use in DSWTM studies. The presented DSWTM framework opened a new research window for accurate shallow water table mapping.
浅层地下水是水文循环中的一个关键变量,对能量、碳和水的平衡有重大影响。此外,浅层含盐地下水在土壤次生盐碱化中起着至关重要的作用。因此,有关浅层地下水位深度空间分布的综合信息对于有效的土地管理和可持续发展至关重要。但在大面积地区,用传统方法确定浅层地下水位既费时又费钱。浅层地下水天然具有地表特征,可通过卫星地表数据推断出其属性参数。在此背景下,本研究提出了一种新的数字浅层地下水位测绘(DSWTM)方法和框架。通过不同的协变量集和采用不同的预测模型,对所提出的 DSWTM 的效率和性能进行了评估。在 DSWTM 框架中,遥感光谱/热指数、地理和趋势数据被用作协变量,PLSR、M5、Cubist 和 RF 算法被用作四种情况下的预测模型。针对每个方案中的两个高性能模型,生成了地下水位深度图,并在空间分辨率为 30 米的条件下使用引导技术对相关的不确定性进行了量化。结果表明,从第一种情况到第四种情况,每种预测模型的预测精度都在不断提高。此外,在所有情况下,Cubist 和 RF 模型的性能均高于 PLSR 和 M5。从第一个场景到第四个场景,Cubist 和 RF 模型生成的预测图的不确定性都有所下降。与 Cubist 相比,RF 在所有场景中生成的地图的不确定性最低,并能提供准确的预测地图。射频作为一种预测模型显示出最高的能力,建议在 DSWTM 研究中使用。所提出的 DSWTM 框架为准确绘制浅层地下水位图打开了一扇新的研究之窗。

Management of agricultural soils for increased productivity may exert positive or negative effects on soil structure, functions, and organic carbon (SOC) stocks. In this study, a field experiment established in 1993 on a clayey soil in southwest Finland was revisited to investigate the long-term effects of deep ploughing and liming on SOC concentration and stock, particulate (POC) and mineral-associated (MOC) fractions of SOC, pH, electrical conductivity (EC), bulk density (BD), porosity, critical pore size and cereal yield. The experiment comprised whole plots of conventional tillage (CT) to a maximum depth of ca. 20 cm, and plots deep ploughed to ca. 35 cm depth by a commercial (DP1) or by a self-made (DP2) plough. The tillage plots were divided into three split-plots assigned to liming treatments (low, medium and high). Three decades after implementation, the increasing liming rates still induced consistent differences in soil pH, a significant increasing effect on total porosity in the subsoil, and a marginally significant decrease in yield with an increase in soil acidity. The deep ploughing exerted a minor difference in topsoil texture, slightly lowered SOC concentration in the topsoil in DP2 in comparison to CT, and slightly higher subsoil SOC concentration in DP1 in comparison to CT, which indicated transfer of the topsoil SOC to deeper layers and dilution of the SOC in the new topsoil. However, no significant differences between the tillage treatments occurred in SOC stocks. In MOC and POC concentrations, there were no significant differences between the control and tillage treatments. The effects of deep ploughing on soil structural properties on the decadal time scale were minor and scattered. Cereal yield exhibited a slight negative trend for deep ploughing. For EC and BD, no treatment effects were recorded. Overall, the study showed that the legacy of soil management effects on soil properties can be persistent on decadal time scales, but no permanent structural damage due to deep ploughing nor gains in SOC stock accrual could be observed.
为提高生产力而对农业土壤进行管理,可能会对土壤结构、功能和有机碳 (SOC) 储量产生积极或消极的影响。本研究重新审视了 1993 年在芬兰西南部粘质土壤上进行的一项田间试验,以调查深耕和石灰化对 SOC 浓度和储量、SOC 的颗粒 (POC) 和矿物相关 (MOC) 部分、pH 值、电导率 (EC)、容重 (BD)、孔隙度、临界孔径和谷物产量的长期影响。试验包括最大耕深约 20 厘米的整块常规耕作 (CT) 地块,以及用商用犁(DP1)或自制犁(DP2)深耕至约 35 厘米的地块。耕作地块被分成三块,分别分配给不同的石灰化处理(低、中、高)。实施三十年后,土壤 pH 值仍然存在差异,底土的总孔隙度显著增加,产量随着土壤酸度的增加而略有下降。深耕使表土质地略有不同,与 CT 相比,DP2 表土中的 SOC 浓度略有降低,与 CT 相比,DP1 底土中的 SOC 浓度略有升高,这表明表土中的 SOC 转移到了深层,稀释了新表土中的 SOC。不过,不同耕作处理之间的 SOC 储量没有明显差异。在 MOC 和 POC 浓度方面,对照组和耕作处理之间没有显著差异。在十年时间尺度上,深耕对土壤结构特性的影响微小且分散。深耕对谷物产量的影响呈轻微的负趋势。对于 EC 和 BD,没有记录到任何处理效应。总之,研究表明,土壤管理对土壤特性的影响在十年时间尺度上是持续存在的,但没有观察到深耕对土壤结构造成永久性破坏,也没有观察到 SOC 储量的增加。

Preferential flow plays a key role in soil hydrological processes in arid and semi-arid areas of opencast coal mine waste. Inoculation with arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi can significantly affect vegetation root growth and improve soil physical structure. However, the impact on preferential flow in new areas of waste remains poorly understood. Here, the effects of AM fungal inoculation on root spatial distribution and preferential flow within the waste area at Heidaigou opencast coal mine in China were analyzed where Amorpha fruticosa was grown for revegetation. A staining tracer method and a grid sampling method were used. Preferential flow pathway development in the newly formed waste areas was affected mainly by A. fruticosa root systems, with closer proximity to A. fruticosa resulting in more preferential flow pathways. Inoculation with the AM fungus Funneliformis mosseae significantly increased preferential flow development. In the profile closest to the A. fruticosa, the dye coverage increased by 59 %, the uniform infiltration depth by 73 %, and the maximum stained depth by 80 %. Plant roots occurred mainly at 0−20 cm soil depth, accounting for ∼ 80 % of the total root length of the entire root system. In the profile closest to A. fruticosa, inoculation with F. mosseae increased the total number of roots and the root length density by 32 %. The preferential flow pathways were developed only in roots with diameters of > 2 mm and more widely distributed at both 0−10 and 10−20 cm soil depths. Substrate infiltration was influenced mainly by roots with diameters of < 4 mm but deep infiltration was more dependent on roots with diameters > 2 mm. Mycorrhizal hyphae contributed to the preferential flow. Inoculation with the AM fungus increased the preferential flow of the newly formed drainage sites and this effect should be considered in the ecological restoration of opencast coal mine wastes in arid and semi-arid areas.
在干旱和半干旱地区的露天煤矿废弃物土壤水文过程中,优先流起着关键作用。接种丛枝菌根(AM)真菌可显著影响植被根系的生长,改善土壤物理结构。然而,人们对废料新区优先流的影响仍然知之甚少。本文分析了接种AM真菌对中国黑岱沟露天煤矿废弃区内根系空间分布和优先流动的影响。研究采用了染色示踪法和网格取样法。在新形成的废料区,优先流道的发展主要受蕨类植物根系的影响,离蕨类植物越近,优先流道越多。接种 AM 真菌 Funneliformis mosseae 能显著增加优先流的发展。在最靠近 A. fruticosa 的剖面上,染料覆盖率增加了 59%,均匀渗透深度增加了 73%,最大染色深度增加了 80%。植物根系主要分布在 0-20 厘米的土壤深度,占整个根系总长度的 80%。在最靠近 A. fruticosa 的剖面上,接种 F. mosseae 后,根的总数和根长密度增加了 32%。只有直径为 > 2 毫米的根系才有优先流动路径,而且在 0-10 厘米和 10-20 厘米的土壤深度分布更广。基质渗透主要受直径为 4 毫米的根的影响,但深层渗透更依赖于直径为 2 毫米的根。菌根菌丝促成了优先流动。接种AM真菌增加了新形成的排水点的优先流量,在干旱和半干旱地区露天煤矿废弃物的生态恢复中应考虑这种效应。

Microorganisms play an important role in affecting the content of available phosphorus (P) in plant rhizosphere soil. However, the effect of aeration on available P in rice rhizosphere soil and its microbial mechanism remain unclear. This study aimed to elucidate the effects of aeration strategies on available P and P-solubilizing microorganisms in rhizosphere soil, employing three different aeration methods (continuous flooding (CF), continuous flooding and aeration (CFA), and alternate wetting and drying (AWD)). We analyzed the bacterial and fungal community structures in rice rhizosphere soil via Illumina sequencing techniques and quantified the abundance of P transformation functional genes related to inorganic P solubilization (pqqC) and organic P mineralization (phoC, phoD, and appA) through quantitative PCR. Our findings revealed that the AWD treatment significantly increased soil pH and Eh; Both AWD and CFA treatments markedly increased soil Olsen-P content at the tillering and heading stages, as well as the microbial carbon-to-phosphorus ratio (MBC/MBP) at the heading and maturity stages. Cluster analysis showed distinct bacterial communities at the heading and maturity stages under AWD, which differed from those in other treatments. Fungal communities at the tillering and heading stages under CFA and AWD grouped together. AWD and CFA treatments consistently enhanced labile-P in the rhizosphere soil throughout the entire growth stages, while reducing moderately labile-P during the tillering and heading stages. Compared to CF, at the heading and maturity stages, the copy numbers of pqqC, phoD, phoC, and appA were higher under AWD compared to other treatments. In conclusion, this study posits that the increase in Olsen-P in paddy fields due to aeration results from improved oxygen conditions in the rhizosphere, alterations in pH and Eh, effects on microbial stoichiometry, and adjustments in the abundance and composition of P-solubilizing microorganisms, thereby promoting P transformation. This conclusion provides new insights into the conversion of soil P Fractions into plant-available forms.
微生物在影响植物根圈土壤中可利用磷(P)含量方面发挥着重要作用。然而,通气对水稻根圈土壤中可利用磷的影响及其微生物机制仍不清楚。本研究采用了三种不同的通气方法(连续淹水(CF)、连续淹水和通气(CFA)以及交替湿润和干燥(AWD)),旨在阐明通气策略对根瘤土壤中可利用磷和钾溶性微生物的影响。我们通过 Illumina 测序技术分析了水稻根瘤土壤中的细菌和真菌群落结构,并通过定量 PCR 分析了与无机钾增溶(pqqC)和有机钾矿化(phoC、phoD 和 appA)相关的钾转化功能基因的丰度。我们的研究结果表明,AWD 处理显著提高了土壤 pH 值和 Eh 值;AWD 和 CFA 处理均显著提高了分蘖期和拔节期的土壤奥尔森-P 含量,以及拔节期和成熟期的微生物碳磷比(MBC/MBP)。聚类分析显示,在 AWD 条件下,打顶期和成熟期的细菌群落与其他处理不同。CFA和AWD处理下分蘖期和打顶期的真菌群落归为一类。在整个生长阶段,AWD 和 CFA 处理持续增加了根瘤土壤中的可溶性磷,而在分蘖期和茎秆期则适度减少了可溶性磷。与 CF 处理相比,在顶芽期和成熟期,AWD 处理的 pqqC、phoD、phoC 和 appA 的拷贝数高于其他处理。总之,本研究认为,通气导致水稻田中奥尔森-P 的增加是由于根圈中氧气条件的改善、pH 值和 Eh 值的改变、微生物化学计量的影响以及钾溶解微生物丰度和组成的调整,从而促进了钾的转化。这一结论为土壤中的钾馏分转化为植物可利用的形式提供了新的见解。

Much effort has been spent on promoting conservation agriculture (CA) in Northern Benin to sustain the transition of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) cropping systems toward agroecology. However, its limited adoption by farmers is often ascribed to initial yield penalties during the transition to CA and to trade-offs around crop biomass use. Here, we assess the effect of different CA-based cropping systems promoted in the region on water productivity and cotton yield in a three-year cotton/maize (Zea mays L.) crop rotation during the initial transition phase to CA. Three CA options were assessed combining different levels of soil disturbance and cover, and introducing cover crops to alleviate the biomass trade-offs. Direct seeding (DS), strip tillage (ST), and direct seeding mulched-based cropping systems (DMC) were compared with conventional tillage (CT) from 2017 to 2019 under a dominant soil type in the region, Haplic Lixisols. Two legume species, Stylosanthes guianensis (Aubl.) Sw. and Crotalaria retusa L. were grown as cover crops with maize under ST and DMC. The experiment followed a randomized block design comprising six replicates. After 2–3 years of DMC, the cotton yield advantage with respect to CT increased from 5 % to 7 %. Cotton yield penalties of respectively 11 % in 2018 and 26 % in 2019 were found for DS. ST treatment went from a yield advantage of 8 % in 2017 to a yield penalty of 20 % in 2019. The DMC and CT treatments gave similar and highest boll weights compared to the ST and DS treatments. The treatments had no significant difference regarding the number of bolls per plant. Soil water storage in the upper 30 cm depth and water use efficiency (WUE) were the highest in the plots with the DMC treatment compared to CT, ST, and DS. At 28 days of active vegetative stage (between 34 and 62 days after sowing), the WUE of seed cotton was 0.11 kg ha−1 mm−1 under DMC, while it was 0.08, 0.07, and 0.04 kg ha−1 mm−1 under DS, CT, and ST, respectively. The performance of DMC at increasing water productivity could be an argument to improve adoptability by farmers in northern Benin who are facing increased weather variability, given that the yield penalties often associated with early transitions to CA were not observed here with full DMC.
贝宁北部一直在大力推广保护性农业(CA),以维持棉花(Gossypium hirsutum L.)种植系统向生态农业的过渡。然而,农民对保护性农业的采用有限,这通常归因于向保护性农业过渡期间的初始产量损失以及作物生物量利用方面的权衡。在此,我们评估了该地区推广的基于 CA 的不同种植系统对棉花/玉米(Zea mays L.)三年轮作中水生产力和棉花产量的影响。我们评估了三种 CA 方案,它们结合了不同程度的土壤扰动和覆盖,并引入了覆盖作物以减轻生物量权衡。从 2017 年到 2019 年,在该地区的主要土壤类型 Haplic Lixisols 下,对直接播种 (DS)、带状耕作 (ST) 和直接播种地膜覆盖种植系统 (DMC) 与传统耕作 (CT) 进行了比较。两种豆科植物 Stylosanthes guianensis (Aubl.) Sw. 和 Crotalaria retusa L. 在 ST 和 DMC 下作为覆盖作物与玉米一起种植。实验采用随机区组设计,共设六个重复。经过 2-3 年的 DMC 后,棉花产量相对于 CT 的优势从 5% 增加到 7%。在 2018 年和 2019 年,DS 的棉花产量分别减少了 11% 和 26%。ST 处理的产量优势从 2017 年的 8% 变为 2019 年的 20%。与 ST 和 DS 处理相比,DMC 和 CT 处理的棉铃重相似且最高。各处理在每株棉铃数方面没有显著差异。与 CT、ST 和 DS 相比,DMC 处理地块上部 30 厘米深度的土壤储水量和水分利用效率(WUE)最高。在 28 天的活性植株期(播种后 34 至 62 天之间),DMC 的籽棉水分利用效率为 0.11 千克/公顷-1 毫米-1,而 DS、CT 和 ST 分别为 0.08、0.07 和 0.04 千克/公顷-1 毫米-1。DMC 在提高水分生产率方面的表现可以作为提高贝宁北部农民采用率的一个论据,因为这些农民面临着越来越多的天气变化,而在完全 DMC 条件下,并没有观察到通常与早期向 CA 过渡相关的产量损失。

Biocrusts, prevalent in desert areas, play a pivotal role in mitigating soil degradation, shaping a common natural landscape. However, amidst climate change and human activities, biocrust coverage is encountering the risk of degradation. The restoration of degraded biocrusts and the construction of artificial ones are regarded as promising technologies for combating soil degradation. Although clay minerals are a crucial abiotic factor in biocrust formation and are directly influence their development and succession, they have not gained widespread attention. The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanism of action of clay minerals in biocrusts. Various quantities of sepiolite were amalgamated with cyanobacteria—Microcoleus vaginatus (ratios of 1:0, 1:10, 1:20, 1:50, 1:100; cyanobacteria dry weight to sepiolite weight), to construct artificial biocrusts and observe the formation and development of them. The results showed that the addition of small quantities of sepiolite (ratios of 1:10 and 1:20) not only facilitated the accumulation of cyanobacterial biomass (1.47–1.86 times) and exopolysacchrides (EPS) (1.73–2.58 times) compared to the control (ratio of 1:0), but also notably enhanced the accumulation of total carbon, total organic carbon, and microbial biomass carbon, highlighting its potential in enhancing the carbon sequestration capabilities of biocrusts. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis revealed that sepiolite serves as a “receiver and bridge” within the biocrust structure, enhancing its compactness and stability, thereby fostering the growth of cyanobacteria and facilitating nutrient transport. Further, Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) and X-Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) analysis reviewed changes in some functional groups of EPS and sepiolite after mixing, validating that EPS can function as a “binder” to unify particles. Our findings demonstrate that the incorporation of clay minerals can facilitate biocrust formation, presenting a practical and economical approach, and providing a novel perspective for constructing artificial biocrusts and rehabilitating degraded desert soils.
沙漠地区普遍存在的生物簇在缓解土壤退化、塑造共同的自然景观方面发挥着关键作用。然而,在气候变化和人类活动的影响下,生物簇覆盖面正面临退化的风险。恢复退化的生物簇和建造人工生物簇被认为是应对土壤退化的有前途的技术。尽管粘土矿物是生物簇形成过程中的重要非生物因素,并直接影响生物簇的发展和演替,但它们并未得到广泛关注。本研究旨在探究粘土矿物在生物簇中的作用机制。研究人员将不同数量的海泡石与蓝藻(蓝藻干重与海泡石重量之比分别为 1:0、1:10、1:20、1:50、1:100)混合,构建人工生物簇,并观察其形成和发展过程。结果表明,与对照组(比例为 1:0)相比,添加少量的海泡石(比例为 1:10 和 1:20)不仅能促进蓝藻生物量(1.47-1.86 倍)和外聚糖(EPS)(1.73-2.58 倍)的积累,还能显著提高总碳、总有机碳和微生物生物量碳的积累,从而突出了其在提高生物簇固碳能力方面的潜力。扫描电子显微镜(SEM)分析表明,海泡石在生物簇结构中起到了 "接收器和桥梁 "的作用,增强了生物簇结构的紧凑性和稳定性,从而促进了蓝藻的生长并促进了营养物质的运输。此外,傅立叶变换红外光谱(FTIR)和 X 射线光电子能谱(XPS)分析显示,EPS 和海泡石在混合后某些官能团发生了变化,从而验证了 EPS 可作为一种 "粘合剂 "来统一颗粒。我们的研究结果表明,粘土矿物的加入可以促进生物簇的形成,提供了一种实用而经济的方法,为构建人工生物簇和恢复退化的沙漠土壤提供了一个新的视角。

However, amidst climate change and human activities, biocrust coverage is encountering the risk of degradation. The restoration of degraded biocrusts and the construction of artificial ones are regarded as promising technologies for combating soil degradation. Although clay minerals are a crucial abiotic factor in biocrust formation and are directly influence their development and succession, they have not gained widespread attention. The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanism of action of clay minerals in biocrusts. Various quantities of sepiolite were amalgamated with cyanobacteria—<em>Microcoleus vaginatus</em> (ratios of 1:0, 1:10, 1:20, 1:50, 1:100; cyanobacteria dry weight to sepiolite weight), to construct artificial biocrusts and observe the formation and development of them. The results showed that the addition of small quantities of sepiolite (ratios of 1:10 and 1:20) not only facilitated the accumulation of cyanobacterial biomass (1.47–1.86 times) and exopolysacchrides (EPS) (1.73–2.58 times) compared to the control (ratio of 1:0), but also notably enhanced the accumulation of total carbon, total organic carbon, and microbial biomass carbon, highlighting its potential in enhancing the carbon sequestration capabilities of biocrusts. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis revealed that sepiolite serves as a “receiver and bridge” within the biocrust structure, enhancing its compactness and stability, thereby fostering the growth of cyanobacteria and facilitating nutrient transport. Further, Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) and X-Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) analysis reviewed changes in some functional groups of EPS and sepiolite after mixing, validating that EPS can function as a “binder” to unify particles.

To alleviate the competition for cropland between ecological restoration and agricultural production, a Gully Land Consolidation (GLC) project has been widely executed in the Chinese Loess Plateau. This project involves mechanically excavating slopes and filling gullies to expand cropland area. Therefore, in the context of climatic and topographical changes, an assessment of the impact of GLC as a key land use measure of water and sediment in space and time is urgently needed. However, due to scale effects, there is a lack of relevant assessments for the GLC. This study utilized the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) and SWAT-Terrace model to analyze the temporal-spatial changes of water and sediment in the Yanhe watershed during 1985–1998 (R1) and 1999–2017 (R2). Additionally, it assessed the effectiveness of GLC in erosion control across different sub-basin clusters. The results showed that (1) at the temporal scale, the runoff and sediment decreased by 30.09 % and 72.73 % respectively, during R2 compared to R1; (2) at the spatial scale, 56 % and 71 % of the sub-basins located in the central and northern parts of the watershed showed a reduction in water and sediment yield, respectively, during R2 compared to R1, while the remaining sub-basins located in the southern part showed an increasing trend in water and sediment yield; and (3) the GLC can reduce 1.17 %-1.93 % of water yield and 0.94 %-1.91 % of sediment yield in the three clusters of sub-basins. The assessment of the soil and water conservation effects of the GLC is beneficial to policymakers in designing effective land management plans and the extension of the project to other regions.
为缓解生态恢复与农业生产对耕地的争夺,中国黄土高原广泛实施了沟壑土地整理项目(GLC)。该项目通过机械开挖边坡、填平沟壑来扩大耕地面积。因此,在气候和地形变化的背景下,迫切需要对作为水和沉积物主要土地利用措施的沟壑沉积在空间和时间上的影响进行评估。然而,由于规模效应,目前缺乏对全球陆地观测系统的相关评估。本研究利用水土评估工具(SWAT)和 SWAT-Terrace 模型分析了延河流域 1985-1998 年(R1)和 1999-2017 年(R2)期间水量和泥沙的时空变化。此外,该研究还评估了不同子流域群 GLC 在水土流失控制中的效果。结果表明:(1) 在时间尺度上,与 R1 相比,R2 期间径流量和泥沙量分别减少了 30.09 % 和 72.73 %;(2) 在空间尺度上,与 R1 相比,R2 期间位于流域中部和北部的子流域分别有 56 % 和 71 % 的水量和泥沙量减少,而位于南部的其余子流域的水量和泥沙量则呈上升趋势;(3) GLC 可减少 1.17 %-1.93 %,减少泥沙量 0.94 %-1.91 %。对全球陆地观测站的水土保持效果进行评估,有利于决策者设计有效的土地管理计划和将该项目推广到其他地区。
