排水沟蓄水条件下农田与排水沟水盐监测 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
为了查明盐碱地排水沟蓄水条件下农田与排水沟之间的水盐交换,基于两年现场观测试验数据,分析了农田与排水沟的水位响应以及电导率变化规律。结果发现:研究区排水沟蓄水条件下,相邻排水沟水位与农田地下水位变化基本一致,作物生长期较为强烈的蒸发蒸腾作用进一步降低了田间地下水位;排水沟水位变化可以直接或间接地影响周围农田的地下水位和水质状况,在无外界来水干扰的情况下,农田地下水和排水沟水样的电导率变化趋势一致,当排水沟受到外来淡水补给时,沟内浓缩的盐分得到稀释,电导率明显低于农田地下水。研究结果可为类似地区盐碱地治理和生态环境保护提供参考依据。 相似文献

江苏省太湖流域产业结构的水环境污染效应 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
通过研究太湖流域(江苏部分)的产业结构污染负荷和水环境的空间分布特点,得出了产业结构污染负荷的水环境空间响应状况.根据小流域划分技术,得出该区域水环境质量空间分布特点:劣于Ⅴ类水质的区域占32%,Ⅴ类水质的占30%,仅有27%的区域水质低于Ⅳ类.另一方面,对应水环境质量空间分布研究,构建了综合反映产业结构水环境污染负荷的经济社会指标体系,分析了流域农田污染因子和工业污染因子的空间分布特点.通过主成分分析,提取了水环境污染因素的四个主成分,分别为土地利用强度、三次产业结构、农业面源和工业点源.基于主成分载荷,解析了四个水环境污染因素的贡献率.在产业结构方面,研究得出工业化仍是区域水环境污染最大影响因素,但区域水环境恶化是各种因素共同交织的结果.又对工业点源污染和农业面源污染等级进行分区,对各区的空间分布特点做了详细的分析.研究了流域水环境综合污染的空间分布和市县区域分解特点,发现县级市比市区在产业发展上对水环境影响更大,主要是由于县级市工业发展相对较为粗放,水环境监管的区域差异性.为控制流域产业结构的水环境污染,综合提出了在流域内整合产业结构调整和产业优化布局,调整重污染工业结构和控制农业面源污染的对策,及相应的产业结构污染负荷区域差别化削减的建议. 相似文献

Soil Carbon and Nitrogen Responses to Nitrogen Fertilizer and Harvesting Rates in Switchgrass Cropping Systems 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Zachary P. Valdez William C. Hockaday Caroline A. Masiello Morgan E. Gallagher G. Philip Robertson 《Bioenergy Research》2017,10(2):456-464
The environmental sustainability of bioenergy cropping systems depends upon multiple factors such as crop selection, agricultural practices, and the management of carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and water resources. Perennial grasses, such as switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.), show potential as a sustainable bioenergy source due to high yields on marginal lands with low fertilizer inputs and an extensive root system that may increase sequestration of C and N in subsurface soil horizons. We quantified the C and N stocks in roots, free particulate, and mineral-associated soil organic matter pools in a 4-year-old switchgrass system following conversion from row crop agriculture at the W.K. Kellogg Biological Station in southwest Michigan. Crops were fertilized with nitrogen at either 0, 84, or 196 kg N ha?1 and harvested either once or twice annually. Twice-annual harvesting caused a reduction of C and N stocks in the relatively labile roots and free-particulate organic matter pools. Nitrogen fertilizer significantly reduced total soil organic C and N stocks, particularly in the stable, mineral-associated C and N pools at depths greater than 15 cm. The largest total belowground C stocks in biomass and soil occurred in unfertilized plots with annual harvesting. These findings suggest that fertilization in switchgrass agriculture moderates the sequestration potential of the soil C pool. 相似文献

农田施氮对水质和氮素流失的影响 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
基于ISI Web of Science数据库,利用文献计量学方法分析了自1957年以来各国在农田氮流失领域的研究发展态势,综述了农田氮流失特征及氮流失防控措施。结果表明,目前各国对农田氮流失的研究主要集中在施氮对水体水质的污染和监测方法上,涉及的关键词主要有Groundwater、Water quality、Surface water、Nitrate pollution、Eutrophication、Contamination、Nonpoint source pollution、Lysimeter、Runoff、Subsurface drainage等。中国、美国和加拿大等农业大国的研究机构在这一领域的研究成果最多发文量最多的期刊主要分布在荷兰、美国和中国。文献分析表明,受降水、地形、土壤、施肥等诸多管理措施的影响,不同区域的农田氮流失量差别很大,中国各类农田的氮流失量(13.7—347 kg/hm~2)明显高于欧美国家(4—107 kg/hm~2)。我国单位面积化肥(357.3 kg/hm~2)和氮肥(165.1 kg/hm~2)施用量均远高于世界平均用量(87.5 kg/hm~2和52.9 kg/hm~2),当季氮肥利用率(17%)却明显低于世界平均水平(58%),表明氮肥施用过量且利用率过低是造成氮流失的关键因素。综合分析农田氮流失防控措施发现,从源头控制氮流失是最有效的措施,优化农艺管理措施和氮迁移过程拦截等分别可减少15%—92%、46%—77%的氮素流失,其中针对农田适宜施氮量的研究最多。然而,面对粮食生产需求与资源短缺、水体水质持续恶化的现状,未来的研究重点应从简单的表观平衡向整个农田生态系统的氮素循环过程转变,更为迫切的是加快探索以水质保护为目标的化肥氮施用阈值(造成环境污染的临界施氮量),并推广示范这些有效的氮流失防控措施。 相似文献

基于水量平衡下灌区农田系统中氮素迁移及平衡的分析 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
本文以于河套灌区典型灌域(前旗北疙堵乡塔布村)为研究对象,通过分析农田系统中水量平衡和氮素平衡,建立农田系统中氮素平衡和水分平衡的联立模型,并用此模型分析典型区域内农田系统中氮素随水分迁移的规律。分析表明:应用水量和氮平衡模型分析灌区农田系统中氮迁移及平衡,可以反映出农业面源污染物(氮)在整个农田系统中的去向,化肥使用量的降低和灌水量的减少,将有效的减少农田系统中氮素的输入量;秋灌—秋浇期间,玉米、番茄和葵花作物对氮的吸收率分别为17%、18%和32%,3种土壤中残留量分别为57%、60%和58%。依据河套灌区年施肥60万t计算,土壤残留量达到17.2万t。在秋灌-秋浇期间从黄河引入的氮总量达到1.21万t,随农田退水进入沟道的量为840 t。 相似文献

Drainage ditching at the catchment scale affects water quality and macrophyte occurrence in Swedish lakes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
FRAUKE ECKE 《Freshwater Biology》2009,54(1):119-126
1. We have limited knowledge of the effects of land use in general and of drainage ditching in particular on macrophyte communities in lakes. I quantified catchment land use, including drainage ditching, as well as water quality and the number of macrophyte species in 17 Swedish lakes in summer 2005. 2. Land use within 1 km of the studied lakes was analysed in a geographic information system. The following variables were included: areas of forests, mires, agricultural land and urbanization, length of drainage ditches (classified according to the use of the land they drained), and shortest distance from lake to an urban area. To extract and analyse general trends in the data sets, redundancy analysis was used. 3. Water quality was explained mainly by three land‐use related variables: the lengths of agricultural, forest and mire ditches. The length of agricultural ditches was positively correlated with lake water conductivity, total dissolved solids, Ca, N and total organic carbon (TOC). The lengths of forest and mire ditches were positively correlated with lake water characteristics, especially TOC. 4. The number of species representing different macrophyte life forms was explained by three environmental variables: conductivity, and lengths of forest and agricultural ditches. The numbers of isoetids, nymphaeids, elodeids and total obligate hydrophytes were negatively correlated with length of forest ditches. In contrast, the number of lemnids and helophytes was positively correlated with conductivity and length of agricultural ditches. Furthermore, the number of isoetids was exponentially related (negatively) to lengths of agricultural and forest ditches, indicating a threshold response to drainage ditch length. 5. The results suggest that effects on water quality and macrophyte communities result from drainage ditching in the lake catchments rather than from land use itself. Given the total area of drainage‐ditched land worldwide (millions of ha in Scandinavia alone), drainage ditching should be considered when evaluating environmental impacts on lake water quality and macrophyte occurrence and when determining reference conditions for catchment land use. 相似文献

Linkages among land-use, water quality, physical habitat conditions and lotic diatom assemblages: A multi-spatial scale assessment 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

We assessed the importance of spatial scales (catchment, stream network, and sample reach) on the effects of agricultural land-use on lotic diatom assemblages along a land-use gradient in the agricultural Willamette Valley Ecoregion of Oregon. Periphyton, water chemistry, and physical habitat conditions were characterized for 25 wadeable streams during a dry season (July to September, 1997). Additional water chemistry samples were collected in the following wet season (February 1998) to assess seasonal effects of land-use on stream water chemistry. Percent agricultural land-use in the study catchments ranged from 10% to 89% with an average of 52%. Partial canonical correspondence analysis (CCA) with the first axis constrained by % agricultural land-use showed that % agricultural land-use at 3 spatial scales explained between 3.7%–6.3% of variability in the diatom species dataset. Monte Carlo Permutation tests indicated that the variance explained by % agricultural land-use was only significant at the spatial scale of the stream network with 10- and 30-m band width (p<0.05, 999 permutations). In addition to the effects of % agricultural land-use, partial CCAs with a forward selection option showed that water chemistry (e.g., SiO2), reach-scale stream channel dimensions (e.g., width, depth, and slope), reach-scale in-stream habitats (substrates and filamentous algal cover in stream beds), and riparian vegetative buffer were all important with relation to diatom species assemblages. Percent of obligately nitrogen-heterotrophic taxa was the only diatom autecological metric that showed a significant but weak correlation with % agricultural land-use along the stream network (r=0.50), but not at catchment or sample reach scale. Correlation between % agricultural land-use and water chemistry variables varied among the spatial scales and between seasons. Physical habitat variables (log10 erodible substrate diameters and stream reach slope) were significantly correlated with % agricultural land-use along the stream network but not at catchment or sample reach scale. Our data suggest that spatial scales are important in assessing effects of land-use on stream conditions but the spatial scale effects may vary between seasons. Direct linkages between agricultural land-use and lotic diatom assemblages were weak during summer base-flow time regardless of the spatial scales. Summer sampling may underestimate the effects of catchment land-use on stream conditions in areas where seasonal patterns are so distinctive as in the Willamette Valley. 相似文献

有机类肥料对土壤养分含量的影响 总被引:15,自引:0,他引:15
绿色、可持续是我国发展现代农业的必然要求,肥料投入是关键之一。基于有机肥培肥土壤、生态友好的优势,发展和推广有机肥已经成为我国农业生产的一项基本国策。我国有机肥来源广泛、种类繁多,农业生产条件千差万别。本文分析了我国有机肥产品种类及标准现状、理化性质差异、碳氮矿化特性差异及影响因素,评述了施用有机肥对提高耕地基础地力的作用。因来源、制作工艺不同,不同有机肥的有机碳组分含量、全氮和活性氮含量、碳氮比等基本性质差异明显,这四者是影响有机肥碳氮矿化率、碳氮矿化量、碱解氮释放量等碳氮供应特性的主要内在因素;加之土壤环境等外界因素的影响,不同有机肥表现出不同的养分供应特性。总体上,有机肥一方面对提高土壤有机质含量,尤其是活性有机质含量和碳库管理指数效果明显,另一方面可增加土壤氮磷钾养分容量,减少作物生长消耗带来的土壤养分亏损,促进土壤质量良性发展。今后,应加强有机肥在耕地培肥中的应用,并加强有机肥肥效理论的基础研究和安全高效有机肥新产品的开发,促进有机肥资源的高效循环利用,使其成为重要的农业资源。 相似文献

Quantitative prediction of environmental impacts of land-use and climate change scenarios in a watershed can serve as a basis for developing sound watershed management schemes. Water quantity and quality are key environmental indicators which are sensitive to various external perturbations. The aim of this study is to evaluate the impacts of land-use and climate changes on water quantity and quality at watershed scale and to understand relationships between hydrologic components and water quality at that scale under different climate and land-use scenarios. We developed an approach for modeling and examining impacts of land-use and climate change scenarios on the water and nutrient cycles. We used an empirical land-use change model (Conversion of Land Use and its Effects, CLUE) and a watershed hydrology and nutrient model (Soil and Water Assessment Tool, SWAT) for the Teshio River watershed in northern Hokkaido, Japan. Predicted future land-use change (from paddy field to farmland) under baseline climate conditions reduced loads of sediment, total nitrogen (N) and total phosphorous (P) from the watershed to the river. This was attributable to higher nutrient uptake by crops and less nutrient mineralization by microbes, reduced nutrient leaching from soil, and lower water yields on farmland. The climate changes (precipitation and temperature) were projected to have greater impact in increasing surface runoff, lateral flow, groundwater discharge and water yield than would land-use change. Surface runoff especially decreased in April and May and increased in March and September with rising temperature. Under the climate change scenarios, the sediment and nutrient loads increased during the snowmelt and rainy seasons, while N and P uptakes by crops increased during the period when fertilizer is normally applied (May through August). The sediment and nutrient loads also increased with increasing winter rainfall because of warming in that season. Organic nutrient mineralization and nutrient leaching increased as well under climate change scenarios. Therefore, we predicted annual water yield, sediment and nutrient loads to increase under climate change scenarios. The sediment and nutrient loads were mainly supplied from agricultural land under land use in each climate change scenario, suggesting that riparian zones and adequate fertilizer management would be a potential mitigation strategy for reducing these negative impacts of land-use and climate changes on water quality. The proposed approach provides a useful source of information for assessing the consequences of hydrology processes and water quality in future land-use and climate change scenarios. 相似文献

Drainage ditches are ubiquitous yet understudied features of the agricultural landscape. Nitrogen pollution disrupts the nutrient balance of drainage ditch ecosystems, as well as the waterbodies in which they drain. Denitrification can help ameliorate the impact of N-fertilization by converting reactive nitrogen into dinitrogen gas. However, factors affecting denitrification in drainage ditches are still poorly understood. In this study, we tested how within-ditch and regional environmental conditions affect denitrifier activity, abundance, and community structure, to understand controls on denitrification at multiple scales. To this end, we quantified in situ denitrification rates and denitrifier abundance in 13 drainage ditches characterized by different types of sediment, vegetation and land-use. We determined how denitrification rates relate to denitrifier abundance and community structure, using the presence of nirS, nirK and nosZ genes as a proxy. Denitrification rates varied widely between the ditches, ranging from 0.006 to 24 mmol N m?2 h?1. Ditches covered by duckweed, which contained high nitrate concentrations and had fine, sandy sediments, were denitrification hotspots. We found highest rates in ditches next to arable land, followed by those in grasslands; lowest rates were observed in peatlands and nature reserves. Denitrification correlated to nitrate concentrations, but not to nirK, nirS and nosZ abundance, whereas denitrifier-gene abundance correlated to organic matter content of the sediment, but not to nitrate concentrations. Our results show a mismatch in denitrification regulators at its different organizational scales. Denitrifier abundance is mostly regulated at within-ditch scales, whereas N-loads, regulated by landscape factors, are most important determinants of instantaneous denitrification rates. 相似文献

农田氮素非点源污染控制的生态补偿标准——以江苏省宜兴市为例 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
农田氮素流失引起的非点源污染已成为国内外农田生态环境资源可持续利用及农业可持续发展的瓶颈,对其进行有效控制愈显迫切.对非点源污染的控制不能简单地照搬点源污染的方法,须针对非点源污染本身具有的强烈外部性及复杂、广泛、不易监测等特征,探究与非点源污染特征规律相对应的对策.生态补偿作为应对全球生态危机和环境污染的一种公共政策工具,对于内化外部效应具有良好的效果.以农户减少一定程度的氮肥施用量获得政府补偿为切入点,论证了农户减少氮肥用量到最佳生态经济施氮量是获得补偿的依据;以宜兴市为实证对象,运用意愿调查评估法和成本-收益法相结合的方式测算了农户参与农田氮素非点源污染控制的生态补偿标准.研究表明:(1)宜兴市主要粮食生产的最佳生态经济施氮量为375.6 kg/hm2,农户参与农田氮素非点源污染控制的补偿额度理论值为620.0-7098.0元/hm2;(2)68.3%的受访农户愿意接受补偿而减少氮肥用量,受偿意愿与种田经验、受教育程度等因素正相关;(3)愿意接受补偿的农民中50.7%选择氮肥量减少到最佳生态经济施氮量,农田氮素非点源污染控制的补偿标准为620.0元/hm2. 相似文献

A review is presented on the occurrence and role of cyanobacteria and eukaryotic algae in sports turf, especially golf curses,
and on the problems arising when these organisms become abundant. The literature depends largely on observations in only a
few countries, mainly Canada, New Zealand, U.K. and U.S.A., but problem growths are probably widespread. The genera reported
to be conspicuous at times include Nostoc, Phormidium, Coccomyxa, Cosmarium, Cylindrocystis, Klebsormidium, Mesotaenium and Zygogonium. Conspicuous surface growths are probably most often related to unsatisfactory drainage or irrigation practices, but other
factors such as fertilizer treatment (especially excess ammonium sulphate) have been implicated. These surface growths sometimes
incorporate copious mucilaginous ‘slime’, which can be a serious hazard by causing people to slip. U.K. observations suggest
that this is especially likely under acidic conditions, where Coccomyxa, Cylindrocystis and Mesotaenium are among the probable culprits.
Some literature indicates that cyanobacteria are also associated with a subsurface black layer, which can cause serious problems
for turf management where sandy soils are subject to unsatisfactory drainage. It seems likely, however, that cyanobacteria
are largely, if not entirely, absent from the subsurface layer, but may form a dark layer at the turf surface overlying the
position of the subsurface black layer. The dark surface layer is probably due largely to narrow filamentous cyanobacteria,
whose growth may enhance the poor drainage and thus reinforce the conditions favouring the black subsurface layer associated
with anoxic conditions.
The soil algal vegetation of sports turf may also be expected to exhibit beneficial effects known to occur in soils of other
types of community, such as nitrogen fixation by some cyanobacteria and the binding of particles. However, little study on
such effects has been directed specifically to sports turf. 相似文献

The relationship between water chemistry and vegetation was studied in a coastal ombrotrophic mire in northern Hokkaido, Japan. The distributions of Sphagnum and Phragmites communities were separated clearly by the pH and ion concentration of the peat surface-pore water. The drainage ditches along the road across the center of the mire had a high pH and ion concentration, as did the peat water in the western part of the mire. It was found that fields used for livestock farming on a hill to the west of the mire leached materials into the mire through drainage ditches, surface runoff, and probably also through ground water, and thus influenced the water chemistry of the mire. Management of the water, including that in the catchment of the mire, should be introduced before biological buffering capacity against excess nutrient loading caused by human activity is exceeded and the mire loses its ombrotrophic status. 相似文献

Aquatic Ecosystem Impacts of Land Sharing Versus Sparing: Nutrient Loading to Southeast Asian Rivers
Aaron A. Koning Joel Moore Naparat Suttidate Robyn Hannigan Peter B. McIntyre 《Ecosystems》2017,20(2):393-405
As world food demand continues to increase, two broad strategies for agricultural production have been widely discussed: land sparing and land sharing. Reflecting tradeoffs between the extent and intensity of agricultural use, land sparing maximizes the ratio of conserved to agricultural land, whereas land sharing allows more extensive, nature-friendly transformation of the agroecological matrix. Freshwater ecosystems are rarely considered in weighing these strategies, despite being strongly affected by land-use change. Here we analyze how shifting from extensive to intensive agricultural practices is altering dry season riverine nutrient availability and algal growth in upland Southeast Asia, which is experiencing rapid conversion from swidden—or shifting—cultivation to fertilized row crops. In situ algal growth assays and nutrient concentration data from eleven catchments representing a spectrum of land use and population densities show that intensive agriculture is associated with significantly elevated nitrate concentrations but no shift in phosphorus. As a result, nitrogen to phosphorus ratios increases dramatically, shifting algal growth toward colimitation by nitrogen and phosphorus. Geochemical analysis of suspended solids suggested comparable geological inputs across basins, but dissolved rare earth elements reveal that inorganic fertilizers are changing water chemistry in parallel with land use. Taken together, our analyses suggest that the transition from low-input land-sharing management (swidden) to high-input land-sparing practices (intensive row-crop agriculture) underway in Southeast Asia has profound consequences for river ecosystems. Such nutrient loading can affect river productivity and food webs, suggesting that land-use conservation strategies for Southeast Asia need to account for impacts on freshwater ecosystems. 相似文献

Changes in Soil Carbon and Nitrogen after Contrasting Land-use Transitions in Northeastern Costa Rica 总被引:22,自引:0,他引:22
Northeastern Costa Rica is a mosaic of primary and secondary forests, tree plantations, pastures, and cash crops. Many studies have quantified the effects of one type of land-use transition (for example, deforestation or reforestation) on soil properties such as organic carbon (C) storage, but few have compared different land-use transitions simultaneously. We can best understand the effects of land-use change on regional and global ecosystem processes by considering all of the land-use transitions that occur in a landscape. In this study, I examined the changes in total soil C and nitrogen (N) pools (to 0.3 m) that have accompanied different land-use transitions in a 140,000-ha region in northeastern Costa Rica. I paired sites that had similar topography and soils but differed in recent land-use history. The following land-use transitions were represented: 12 conversions of primary forests to banana plantations, 15 conversions of pastures to cash crops, and four conversions of pastures to Vochysia guatemalensis tree plantations. The conversion of forests to bananas decreased soil C concentrations and inventories (Mg C ha–1) in the surface soil by 37% and 16.5%, respectively. The conversion of pastures to cash crops reduced soil C concentrations and inventories to the same extent that forest-to-banana cropping did. Furthermore, young Vochysia plantations do not appear to increase soil C storage, at least over the 1st decade. When data from all land-use transitions were pooled, the difference in root biomass and leaf litter pools between land-use pairs explained 50% of the differences in soil C concentrations and 36% of the differences in soil C inventories. Thus, reduced productivity or C inputs to the soil is one mechanism that could explain the losses in soil C pools with land-use change. In this landscape, losses of soil C due to cultivation are rapid, whereas re- accumulation rates are slow. Total soil N pools (0–10 cm) were also reduced after the conversion of forests to banana plantations or the conversion of pastures to crops, despite fertilization of the cropped soils. This suggests that the added N fertilizer is not retained but instead is exported via produce, N gas emissions, and hydrologic processes. 相似文献
