Abstract

Rice cultivation significantly contributes to greenhouse gas emissions, particularly carbon dioxide (CO₂), due to plant respiration and soil microbial activity. This study investigates the potential of ferric oxide (FO) supplementation as a mitigation strategy for CO₂ emissions in rice paddies. A controlled pot experiment was conducted to assess the effects of FO application and its interaction with time after planting on CO₂ emissions and rice yield. Results indicate a peak in CO₂ emissions around 40 days after planting, with FO supplementation reducing emissions in a dose-dependent manner. Additionally, the interaction between FO application and plant growth stages significantly influenced emission patterns. FO-treated soils exhibited lower CO₂ fluxes while maintaining rice productivity, suggesting its potential role in modifying soil biochemical processes. These findings provide new insights into CO₂ dynamics in rice cultivation and highlight FO supplementation as a promising approach for mitigating emissions. Further research is warranted to optimize FO application strategies and assess long-term environmental sustainability in diverse rice-growing conditions.

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.
