Abstract
The strategy to reduce agricultural ammonia (NH3) emissions is a focus of attention for governments and scientists around the world. However, the effect of different irrigation and fertilization management practices on NH3 emission in alkaline soil and the underlining mechanisms are poorly understood. An experiment with drip fertigation (a combination of fertilizing and irrigation), sprinkler fertigation, and traditional furrow irrigation with chemical fertilizer spraying was conducted in potato fields with alkaline soil in arid areas of Northwest China. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of three irrigation and fertilization management practices on NH3 emissions using the static box-venting method in a three-year in situ trial. There are significant seasonal difference for NH3 emission fluxes in alkaline soils under different fertilization and irrigation management practices. The accumulative NH3 emissions in the alkaline soil from drip fertigation and sprinkler fertigation was 55.93% and 54.05% lower than that from traditional furrow irrigation, respectively. The dynamic changes of NH4+-N and NO3−-N in alkaline soil were the most important factors controlling the differences of NH3 emissions under different irrigation and fertilization methods. Drip fertigation significantly reduced NH3 emission intensity in alkaline soil, and were important measures for reducing agricultural NH3 emissions and ensuring potato yield in alkaline soil farmland in arid regions.
期刊介绍:
Water, Air, & Soil Pollution is an international, interdisciplinary journal on all aspects of pollution and solutions to pollution in the biosphere. This includes chemical, physical and biological processes affecting flora, fauna, water, air and soil in relation to environmental pollution. Because of its scope, the subject areas are diverse and include all aspects of pollution sources, transport, deposition, accumulation, acid precipitation, atmospheric pollution, metals, aquatic pollution including marine pollution and ground water, waste water, pesticides, soil pollution, sewage, sediment pollution, forestry pollution, effects of pollutants on humans, vegetation, fish, aquatic species, micro-organisms, and animals, environmental and molecular toxicology applied to pollution research, biosensors, global and climate change, ecological implications of pollution and pollution models. Water, Air, & Soil Pollution also publishes manuscripts on novel methods used in the study of environmental pollutants, environmental toxicology, environmental biology, novel environmental engineering related to pollution, biodiversity as influenced by pollution, novel environmental biotechnology as applied to pollution (e.g. bioremediation), environmental modelling and biorestoration of polluted environments.
Articles should not be submitted that are of local interest only and do not advance international knowledge in environmental pollution and solutions to pollution. Articles that simply replicate known knowledge or techniques while researching a local pollution problem will normally be rejected without review. Submitted articles must have up-to-date references, employ the correct experimental replication and statistical analysis, where needed and contain a significant contribution to new knowledge. The publishing and editorial team sincerely appreciate your cooperation.
Water, Air, & Soil Pollution publishes research papers; review articles; mini-reviews; and book reviews.
