Porous suction cup lysimeters were installed at a depth of 120 cm to collect pore water samples from 23 leaching events in 2021, a dry year. Increasing the number of N-splits did not affect the pore-water NO₃-N concentration; however, it was 169%, 152%, 150%, and 129% higher in 2-, 3-, 4-, and 5-N split treatments compared to control, that is, without N application. Though the 2-, 3-, 4-, and 5-N splits had 110%, 71%, 120%, and 91% higher area-based NO₃-N leaching than the control, less deep percolation and more evapotranspiration in control led to no significant differences in area-based NO₃-N leaching among all treatments. All N-splits resulted in higher maize yield, nitrogen use efficiency, plant N uptake, harvest index, and aboveground biomass than control; however, the number of N-splits did not affect these parameters. The inclusion of environmental cost reduced the return to nitrogen by 92–143 $ ha⁻¹ across all N-split treatments but did not significantly affect the differences among the splits. Overall, the results indicate that increasing the number of N-splits does not provide agronomic, economic, and environmental benefits in irrigated maize fields during a dry year.</p>","PeriodicalId":7567,"journal":{"name":"Agrosystems, Geosciences & Environment","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/agg2.20554","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141967482","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study uses machine learning and high-resolution imagery to produce a time series of crop maps to assess crop type trends and patterns across central California from 2005 to 2020. National Agriculture Imagery Program and Landsat imagery were used to classify nine crop types that are common in the study region: grain crops, field crops, rice, citrus and subtropical, deciduous fruit and nut, vineyard, berry and vegetable, pasture, and fallow/young perennial crop types. To create labeled data, we sampled 1253 fields and manually identified crop types for each examined year using high-resolution imagery and Landsat normalized difference vegetation index time series. We applied a random forest machine learning algorithm in Google Earth Engine. Results show that the mean overall classification accuracy of the nine-class map was 93.1%, with individual accuracies ranging from 99.3% (rice) to 89.5% (fallow/young perennial).
