The results showed that in the heavy degradation stage, miscellaneous grass plants occupied absolute dominance, soil C∶N∶P was approximately 32.83∶3.87∶0.67, and there was certain nitrogen limitation. The coefficients of variation of soil carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus content were in the following order: organic carbon (1.09) > total nitrogen (0.63) > total phosphorus (0.29). The organic carbon content and the carbon and nitrogen ratio showed a significant linear decreasing trend with the increase in the grassland degradation index (GDI), while the total phosphorus content and organic carbon storage showed a significant non-linear change, in which the total phosphorus content showed a significant gentle U-shaped distribution, and the organic carbon storage decreased more gently at the beginning of the heavy degradation stage and then decreased sharply when the GDI was 57.9. The results of Mantel correlation analysis showed that the soil carbon to nitrogen ratio, carbon to phosphorus ratio, and nitrogen to phosphorus ratio showed significant correlation with organic carbon content and storage and total nitrogen storage. The results of structural equation modeling indicated that soil water content had direct effects as well as indirect through vegetation factors, soil carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus ecological stoichiometry ratios, and soil water content and vegetation factors (height, cover, and biomass) were key environmental factors affecting soil ecological stoichiometry.

Different VOC activity evaluation methods of OFP and <i>L</i><sub>·OH</sub> were utilized to compare and analyze the key active components and species and the ratio analysis (RA) and positive matrix factorization (PMF) analysis models were used to study the apportionment contribution of VOCs. The results showed that the O<sub>3</sub> pollution in June and September in Zhengzhou was mainly due to the adverse meteorological conditions of high temperature and low humidity, strong radiation, and low wind speed, superimposed by the prominent concentrations of local VOCs and NO<sub>2</sub>, resulting in frequently high and excessive O<sub>3</sub> occurrences.

An experimental study was carried out in 2020 in a dry-crop potato field in the mountainous area of southern Ningxia by setting three furrow-ridge ratios [60 cm∶30 cm (R1), 60 cm∶45 cm (R2), and 60 cm∶60 cm (R3)] combined with three mulching modes [ridge covered with ordinary plastic film, furrow covered with straw (DJ), degradable water-permeable plastic film (DS), and no mulching (DB) in furrows, respectively]. The soil hydrothermal factors, respiration rate, organic carbon content, and mineralization characteristics of potatoes during the reproductive period under different mulching modes were investigated with plain mulching without mulching (CK) as the control. The results showed that different furrow-ridge ratios combined with the mulching mode could significantly increase the soil water storage capacity in the 0-60 cm layer, and the R3DJ treatment had a better effect, with a significant increase of 24.99% compared with that in CK. The R2 treatment had the best effect of increasing temperature during the whole life cycle of the potato. The DS treatment had the effect of increasing temperature, and the DJ treatment had the effect of decreasing temperature under different mulching materials. Different furrow and ridge cover patterns could significantly increase the average soil respiration rate during the reproductive period, and the R3DS treatment was the most significant among the different furrow and ridge cover patterns, with a significant increase of 24.71% compared with that in the CK treatment. The soil organic carbon content in the 0-20 cm and 20-40 cm layers at harvest time was higher in the R2 and R1 ridges, respectively, and higher in the DB and DS treatments for different mulching materials. The soil organic carbon mineralization rate declined rapidly in the early stage of cultivation and then slowly declined and leveled off in the middle and late stages, which was highest in the R3 treatment for the three types of ridge ratios and highest in the DS treatment for different mulching materials.

The spatiotemporal change characteristics of absorption and carbon emissions can provide scientific basis for the formulation of reasonable and differentiated carbon emission reduction policies in different administrative regions in China. To this end, this study used multi-source data such as remote sensing and statistics and integrated ecological models, statistics, and GIS space analysis and other methods to analyze the spatiotemporal dynamic change characteristics of carbon emissions and carbon absorption at different administrative scales (provinces, cities, and counties) in China. The results showed that: ① The total carbon absorption of vegetation in China continued to increase from 2000 to 2021 and the average value gradually increased. Differences were observed in spatiotemporal changes in carbon emissions at different administrative scales. The spatiotemporal changes at smaller scales were more evident. Carbon emissions showed obvious spatial differences of \"high in the north and low in the south, high in the east and low in the west.\" ② The spatiotemporal distribution of CPI at the administrative scale was similar to that of carbon emissions and the overall trend was increasing annually. The pressure of carbon emissions on carbon absorption gradually weakened from the east to the central and western regions. ③ Spatiotemporal hotspot analysis showed that the overall spatial distribution of cold and hot spots in China's carbon absorption was as follows: In the spatial pattern of \"hot in the east and cold in the west,\" the spatial distribution of cold and hot spots of carbon emissions showed agglomeration characteristics. The provincial scale was primarily oscillating hotspot whereas municipal and county scales were majorly continuous hot spots.
