Following that, the experiments for granulation performance and basic sintering characteristics were designed under seven different fluxed iron ore ratios, and the integrated ranking of different fluxed iron ore ratios was determined using gray relation analysis. Finally, the results of the industrial trails were combined with the feasibility analysis. Test and experimental results show that the fraction of the fluxed iron ore particles larger than 0.5 mm can account for more than 48%, and the particles have two morphologies: spherical-rough and flaky-smooth. Ca elements are found in the form of calcite (CaCO3) and dolomite (CaMg(CO3)2). The average particle size of granules and powder removal rate can be improved from 2.50 to 3.16 mm and 39.60% to 24.20%, respectively, with the increase in the fluxed iron ore ratio. Furthermore, the fluxed iron ore can improve assimilability and liquid fluidity of magnetite concentrates. In terms of overall granulation performance and sintering characteristics, the fluxed iron ore ratios are graded from best to worst as follows: 12%, 15%, 9%, 18%, 21%, 6% and 3%. The industrial trails show that when the fluxed iron ore ratio is increased, the beneficial effect of the superior sintering characteristics of the fluxed iron ore itself is ideally balanced with the negative effect of the lower amount of additional CaO at 12% ratio, and thus, it is feasible to bring the fluxed iron ore into production at a level of roughly 12%.展开更多

The irradiation capability, which hinges on parameters like neutron flux level, irradiation channels' volume, and fuel cycle duration, is a core indicator for high-flux reactors. We propose a conceptual design of an ultra-high flux fast reactor(UFFR) with strong irradiation capability, which utilizes U-20Pu-10Zr alloy fuel and employs lead-bismuth as the coolant. The maximum neutron flux in the core reaches 1.32×10^(16) cm^(-2)s^(-1), while the average neutron flux in the irradiation channels attains 1.19×10^(16) cm^(-2)s^(-1). The volume of the central irradiation channel exceeds 10000 cm^(3), and the fuel cycle duration is 165 d, placing all its performance indicators among the top in the world. Based on the analyses of reactor physics and thermalhydraulics, it has been demonstrated that all reactivity coefficients are negative and all physical parameters meet the design criteria, ensuring the inherent safety of UFFR. An assessment of the irradiation capability has been carried out based on californium-252(^(252)Cf) production, indicating that the irradiation capability of UFFR surpasses that of the high flux isotope reactor(HFIR). The yield of ^(252)Cf from UFFR is 14.39 times that of HFIR, and its nuclei conversion rate is 3.21 times that of HFIR.展开更多

文摘With rapid development of the pellet production under the background of green development,high-quality iron concentrates were gradually exhausted;thus,using high-silica iron concentrates was expected to be a promising way to relieve resource pressure for pellet production.However,increasing the proportion of high-silica acid pellets into the furnace led to worse blast furnace slag,and the metallurgical properties of high-silica pellets were imperfect.To understand the reciprocal effects of basicity(CaO/SiO_(2))and MgO content on the properties of the high-silica pellets,the phase compositions and microstructure were investigated using X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscope,equipped with energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry.The results indicated that simply increasing MgO content from O to 2.50 wt.%could decrease the reduction swelling index,but the compressive strength rapidly declined due to the formation of magnesioferrite.However,adding CaO to 2.50 wt.%MgO pellets greatly improved the pellet qualities,which could be attributed to a substantial increase in the amount of high-melting-point silicate liquid phase.

文摘Magnesium fluxed pellets are the focus of blast furnace burden research for reducing environmental load.The pelletizing,roasting and metallurgical properties of a Chinese fine magnetite ore with the addition of magnesium flux were experimentally tested,and the effects of basicity on the consolidation behavior,compressive strength,and reducibility of magnesium fluxed pellets were systematically clarified.Then,the mechanisms were analyzed by means of thermodynamics calculation and scanning electron microscopy-energy-dispersive spectrometry analysis methods.The results show that the consolidation behavior of magnesium fluxed pellets during roasting process was obviously promoted with increasing the basicity of the magnesium fluxed pellets.The compressive strength increased firstly and then decreased,reaching the maximum value of 2352 N/pellet with the basicity of 1.0.The reduction degree increased gradually with enhancing the basicity owing to the fact that the decomposition of the added CaCO^could increase the porosity of pellets,thereby increasing the CO diffusion in pellet during reduction.Simultaneously,the reduction swelling index was improved with increasing the basicity because the generated calcium feirite could effectively suppress the growth of iron whiskers.

文摘A low MgO content in sinter is conducive to reduce the MgO content in blast furnace slag.This study investigated the effect of MgO content in sinter on the softening–melting behavior of the mixed burden based on fluxed pellets.When the MgO content increased from 1.31 wt% to 1.55 wt%, the melting temperature of sinter increased to 1521℃.Such an increase was due to the formation of the high-meltingpoint slag phase.The reduction degradation index of sinter with 1.31 wt% MgO content was better than that of others.The initial softening temperature of the mixed burden increased from 1104 to 1126℃ as MgO content in sinter increased from 1.31 wt% to 1.55 wt%, and the melting temperature decreased from 1494 to 1460℃.The permeability index(S-value) of mixed burden decreased to 594.46 kPa·℃ under a high MgO content with 1.55 wt%, indicating that the permeability was improved.The slag phase composition of burden was mainly akermarite(Ca_(2)MgSiO_(7)) when the MgO content in sinter was 1.55 wt%.The melting point of akermarite is 1450℃, which is lower than other phases.

文摘The increase to the proportion of fluxed pellets in the blast furnace burden is a useful way to reduce the carbon emissions in the ironmaking process.In this study,the interaction between calcium carbonate and iron ore powder and the mineralization mechanism of fluxed iron ore pellet in the roasting process were investigated through diffusion couple experiments.Scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive spectroscopy was used to study the elements’diffusion and phase transformation during the roasting process.The results indicated that limestone decomposed into calcium oxide,and magnetite was oxidized to hematite at the early stage of preheating.With the increase in roasting temperature,the diffusion rate of Fe and Ca was obviously accelerated,while the diffusion rate of Si was relatively slow.The order of magnitude of interdiffusion coefficient of Fe_(2)O_(3)-CaO diffusion couple was 10^(−10) m^(2)·s^(−1) at a roasting temperature of 1200℃for 9 h.Ca_(2)Fe_(2)O_(5) was the initial product in the Fe_(2)O_(3)-CaO-SiO_(2) diffusion interface,and then Ca_(2)Fe_(2)O_(5) continued to react with Fe_(2)O_(3) to form CaFe_(2)O_(4).With the expansion of the diffusion region,the sillico-ferrite of calcium liquid phase was produced due to the melting of SiO_(2) into CaFe_(2)O_(4),which can strengthen the consolidation of fluxed pellets.Furthermore,andradite would be formed around a small part of quartz particles,which is also conducive to the consolidation of fluxed pellets.In addition,the principle diagram of limestone and quartz diffusion reaction in the process of fluxed pellet roasting was discussed.

文摘Fluxed pellets are becoming a popular burden for the blast furnace in China.The basicity(wCaO/wSiO_(2))ranging from 0.33 to 1.33 was prepared by adding CaO analytical reagent.The phase change of pellets during roasting was analyzed by the FactSage software,and the consolidation mechanism of fluxed hematite pellets was also investigated.The results show that the increase in basicity gradually increases the diameter,volume,and porosity of pellets.The diameter,volume,and porosity of pellets change slightly when the basicity is greater than 0.83.The increase in roasting temperature gradually decreases the volume and porosity of pellets.With the increase in pellet basicity,the compressive strength of pellets reaches the maximum at the basicity of 0.83.The higher the roasting temperature is,the more the slag phase is produced,thereby accelerating Fe^(3+)diffusion and promoting Fe_(2)O_(3) recrystallization.In addition,the consolidation effect of the slag phase after cooling improves the consolidation strength of fluxed pellets.When the basicity is higher than 0.83,the slag phase decreases with the increase in basicity,and the high-temperature solid solution,such as melilite and spinel,increases,thereby hindering Fe2O3 recrystallization.

文摘To investigate the feasibility of co-sintering of fluxed iron ore with magnetite concentrates, the mineralogical properties of a novel fluxed iron ore were studied using particle size analysis, microscopic morphology characterization, and X-ray diffraction Rietveld analysis. Following that, the experiments for granulation performance and basic sintering characteristics were designed under seven different fluxed iron ore ratios, and the integrated ranking of different fluxed iron ore ratios was determined using gray relation analysis. Finally, the results of the industrial trails were combined with the feasibility analysis. Test and experimental results show that the fraction of the fluxed iron ore particles larger than 0.5 mm can account for more than 48%, and the particles have two morphologies: spherical-rough and flaky-smooth. Ca elements are found in the form of calcite (CaCO3) and dolomite (CaMg(CO3)2). The average particle size of granules and powder removal rate can be improved from 2.50 to 3.16 mm and 39.60% to 24.20%, respectively, with the increase in the fluxed iron ore ratio. Furthermore, the fluxed iron ore can improve assimilability and liquid fluidity of magnetite concentrates. In terms of overall granulation performance and sintering characteristics, the fluxed iron ore ratios are graded from best to worst as follows: 12%, 15%, 9%, 18%, 21%, 6% and 3%. The industrial trails show that when the fluxed iron ore ratio is increased, the beneficial effect of the superior sintering characteristics of the fluxed iron ore itself is ideally balanced with the negative effect of the lower amount of additional CaO at 12% ratio, and thus, it is feasible to bring the fluxed iron ore into production at a level of roughly 12%.

文摘The large-scale production of high-Ti steels is limited by the formation of Ti-containing oxides or nitrides in steel-slag reactions during continuous casting.These processes degrade mold flux properties,clog submerged entry nozzles,form floaters in the molds,and produce various surface defects on the cast slabs.This review summarizes the effects of nonmetallic inclusions on traditional CaO-SiO_(2)-based(CS)mold fluxes and novel CaO-Al_(2)O_(3)-based(CA)low-or non-reactive fluxes containing TiO_(2),BaO,and B_(2)O_(3)additives to avoid undesirable steel,slag,and inclusion reactions,with the aim of providing a new perspective for research and practice related to balancing the lubrication and heat transfer of mold fluxes to promote smooth operation and reduce surface defects on cast slabs.For traditional CS mold flux,although the addition of solvents such as Na_(2)O,Li_(2)O,and B_(2)O_(3)can enhance flowability,steel-slag reactions persist,limiting the effectiveness of CS mold fluxes in high-Ti steel casting.Low-or non-reactive CA mold fluxes with reduced SiO_(2)content are a research focus,where adding other components can significantly change flux characteristics.Replacing CaO with BaO can lower the melting point and inhibit crystallization,allowing the flux to maintain good flowability at low temperatures.Replacing SiO_(2)with TiO_(2)can stabilize the viscosity and enhance heat transfer.To reduce the environmental impact,fluorides are replaced with components such as TiO_(2),B_(2)O_(3),BaO,Li_(2)O,and Na_(2)O for F-frce mold fluxes with similar lubrication,crystallization,and heat-transfer effects.When TiO_(2)replaces CaF_(2),it stabilizes the viscosity and enhances the heat conductivity,forming CaTiO_(3)and CaSiTiO_(5)phases instead of cuspidine to control crystallization.B_(2)O_(3)lowers the melting point and suppresses crystallization,forming phases such as Ca_(3)B_(2)O_(6)and Ca_(11)Si_(4)B_(2)O_(22).BaO introduces non-bridging oxygen to reduce viscosity and ensure flux flowability at low temperatures.However,further studies are required to determine the optimal mold flux compositions corresponding to the steel grades and the interactions between the various components of the mold flux.In the future,the practical application of new mold fluxes for high-Ti steel will become the focus of further verification to achieve a balance between lubrication and heat transfer,which is expected to minimize the occurrence of casting problems and slab defects.

文摘Frequent droughts pose considerable threat to global forest carbon uptake,but little is known about the response of forest carbon fluxes in climatic transition zones to seasonal drought.In this study,the responses of carbon fluxes to seasonal drought in two natural forests(Quercus aliena var.acute serrata Maxim and Pinus tabuliformis Carr.)in the Baotianman Nature Reserve were investigated.The Q.aliena forest exhibited a high resilience with stable gross primary productivity(GPP).However,ecosystem respiration(Re)significantly declined by 18.4%compared with normal years,leading to an increase in net carbon sequestration capacity of 4.1%.This resilience was attributed to its deep root system accessing soil water(SWC_(50cm))to sustain stomatal openness,coupled with the efficient utilization of photosynthetically active radiation to drive photosynthesis.In contrast,the P.tabuliformis forest,which relied on shallow soil moisture(SWC_(20cm)),experienced simultaneous decreases in both GPP and Re during drought,with a sharply greater decrease in GPP,resulting in low net carbon sink capacity.Further analysis revealed that the Q.aliena forest prioritized carbon assimilation through a deep water-stomatal synergy strategy(anisohydric behavior),whereas the P.tabuliformis forest adopted an isohydric strategy favoring water conservation at the expense of carbon fixation efficiency.These findings highlight distinct mechanisms underlying drought adaptation between forest types,providing critical insight into optimizing forest carbon cycle models and selecting drought-resistant species under the influence of climate change.
文摘An atmospheric general circulation model(AGCM)is used to analyze the different impact on the Barents Sea(BS)and Greenland Sea(GS)for a perturbation of sea-to-air DMS flux.We compare contemporary anthropogenic S and contemporary DMS sea-to-air flux(as baseline,B00)sulfur emissions,with contemporary anthropogenic S and a perturbed DMS flux(as modified,B01)sulfur emissions.Results show that the global mean surface DMS and DMS vertically integrated concentration all peaked in June and increases more than 63%in BS and increases about 58%in GS.The concentrations of atmospheric sulfur dioxide vertical integral(SO_(2))and sulfate vertical integral(SO_(4))only increase less than 12%in both regions.Sulfur emission(SEM)peaked in June and increased about 67%and 41%in GS and BS,respectively.Aerosol optical depth(AOD)increases less than 4%in GS and in BS.Surface temperature(TSC)peaked in July and reduces 0.25 K and 0.8 K in GS and BS,respectively.Satellite data from 2003 to 2023show that chlorophyll(CHL)concentration in BS exceeds that of GS by 51%.The AOD in GS is only 0.6%higher than in BS.The recent increased rate of DMS surface concentration in BS(from 6%during 1981–2002 to 18.8%in 2003–2023)is mainly caused by elevated CHL concentrations in BS.Finally,the perturbation on DMS flux leads to increase rate of DMS and related sulfur emissions especially in the BS,this tendency will have an offsetting effect on regional warming.

文摘Waste glass fibers were used as the main raw materials to prepare foamed glass-ceramics with 0-14 wt%H_(3)BO_(3)as a flux agent.The effects of H_(3)BO_(3)on the crystallization process,foaming behavior,and physical properties of CaO-MgO-Al_(2)O_(3)-SiO_(2)foamed glass-ceramics were investigated.The results showed that the main crystalline phase of the foamed glass-ceramics was anorthite with diopside as a minor crystalline phase,which exhibited a typical surface crystallization process.The addition of H_(3)BO_(3)modified the surface of glass powders and inhibited crystal precipitation obviously.The low melting point of H_(3)BO_(3)and the decrease of crystallinity jointly promoted the growth of pores,resulting in a reduction of bulk density and an increase in porosity.The compressive strength and thermal conductivity of the samples were linearly related to the bulk density.In particular,the sample added with 10 wt%H_(3)BO_(3)exhibited excellent properties,possessing a low coefficient of thermal conductivity 0.081 W/(m·K)and relatively high compressive strength 3.36 MPa.

文摘Cyperus esculentus(C.esculentus),a desert-adapted plant species with both ecological and economic value,has been widely cultivated in northern China's sandy regions.However,limited studies have investigated the performance of composite shelterbelts that integrate C.esculentus.This study systematically evaluated five shelterbelt models—Populus euphratica(P.euphratica),P.euphratica–C.esculentus composite,P.euphratica–nylon net–C.esculentus composite,Tamarix chinensis(T.chinensis),and T.chinensis–C.esculentus composite—using wind tunnel experiments and field observations.Sediment flux was measured at a normalized downwind distance(x/h)of 5,where x refers to the distance from the front edge(upwind side)of the shelterbelt for upwind measurements,and the distance from the rear edge(downwind side)for downwind measurements,and h represents the canopy height.Wind velocity was measured at x/h of–2,–1,1,2,3,5,and 7,and sand flux was measured at x/h=5,under initial wind velocities of 8.0 and 12.0 m/s.The results indicated that the P.euphratica–nylon net–C.esculentus composite was the most effective in reducing wind velocity,followed by the P.euphratica–C.esculentus composite.In contrast,the P.euphratica and T.chinensis exhibited relatively weaker wind reduction capabilities.Regarding sand flux,under moderate wind velocity(8.0 m/s),both the P.euphratica–C.esculentus composite and P.euphratica–nylon net–C.esculentus composite demonstrated the lowest sand flux values.However,under high wind velocity(12.0 m/s),the P.euphratica–nylon net–C.esculentus composite significantly outperformed the other shelterbelt models in sand retention,highlighting its superior windbreak and sand fixation efficacy.Field observations further validated the windbreak and sand fixation effects of C.esculentus.Comparisons between the bare sand plot and C.esculentus plot within protective forests demonstrated that planting C.esculentus can provide substantial ecological benefits in windbreak and sand-fixation.These findings,reinforced by field observations,strengthen the wind tunnel experiment results and highlight the critical role of C.esculentus in enhancing the performance of composite shelterbelts for desert ecological restoration.

文摘From an engineering feasibility standpoint, what level of performance metrics can be ultimately achieved when designing a reactor using well-established nuclear fuels and structural materials that have already undergone irradiation testing? The irradiation capability, which hinges on parameters like neutron flux level, irradiation channels' volume, and fuel cycle duration, is a core indicator for high-flux reactors. We propose a conceptual design of an ultra-high flux fast reactor(UFFR) with strong irradiation capability, which utilizes U-20Pu-10Zr alloy fuel and employs lead-bismuth as the coolant. The maximum neutron flux in the core reaches 1.32×10^(16) cm^(-2)s^(-1), while the average neutron flux in the irradiation channels attains 1.19×10^(16) cm^(-2)s^(-1). The volume of the central irradiation channel exceeds 10000 cm^(3), and the fuel cycle duration is 165 d, placing all its performance indicators among the top in the world. Based on the analyses of reactor physics and thermalhydraulics, it has been demonstrated that all reactivity coefficients are negative and all physical parameters meet the design criteria, ensuring the inherent safety of UFFR. An assessment of the irradiation capability has been carried out based on californium-252(^(252)Cf) production, indicating that the irradiation capability of UFFR surpasses that of the high flux isotope reactor(HFIR). The yield of ^(252)Cf from UFFR is 14.39 times that of HFIR, and its nuclei conversion rate is 3.21 times that of HFIR.
文摘The radiative heat flux of the plume from reusable rockets is a critical parameter during the launch and return processes.This paper proposes a method for calculating radiative heat flux with higher accuracy than previously reported for a recoverable nine-engine liquid-propellant rocket.Based on the Radiative Transfer Equation(RTE),this study employs the discrete transfer method to solve the transient RTE problem using physical properties to describe the problem while avoiding the need to directly solve mathematical equations.The proposed method can effectively determine the radiative heat flux of the flow field and is applicable to problems involving various geometries.Calculations reveal that during the ascent phase of the rocket,the radiative heat flux at the base of the vehicle reaches its maximum in the initial stages of the lift-off,reaching a maximum of~50 kW/m^(2),which is 2.24 times the maximum value during the return phase.During the deceleration stage of re-entry into the atmosphere,the maximum radiative heat flux recorded on the sidewall of the rocket is 29.1 kW/m^(2);the maximum heat flux on the bottom surface is approximately 22.3 kW/m^(2),accounting for 76.6%of that on the rocket's sidewall.This provides a basis for the thermal protection design of the rocket's bottom and walls as well as for the thermal management of cryogenic propellant tanks.Future research will involve ground engine testing and flight experiments to further validate the proposed model.

文摘Carbon fluxes are essential indicators assessing vegetation carbon cycle functions.However,the extent and mechanisms by which climate change and human activities influence the spatiotemporal dynamics of carbon fluxes in arid oasis and non-oasis area remains unclear.Here,we assessed and predicted the future effects of climate change and human activities on carbon fluxes in the Hexi Corridor.The results showed that the annual average gross primary productivity(GPP),net ecosystem productivity(NEP),and ecosystem respiration(Reco)in the Hexi Corridor oasis increased by 263.91 g C·m^(-2)·yr^(-1),118.45 g C·m^(-2)·yr^(-1)and 122.46 g C·m^(-2)·yr^(-1),respectively,due to the expansion of the oasis area by 3424.84 km^(2) caused by human activities from 2000 to 2022.Both oasis and non-oasis arid ecosystems in the Hexi Corridor acted as carbon sinks.Compared to the non-oasis area,the carbon fluxes contributions of oasis area increased,ranging from 10.21%to 13.99%for GPP,8.50%to11.68%for NEP,and 13.34%to 17.13%for Reco.The contribution of the carbon flux from the oasis expansion area to the total carbon flux change in the Hexi Corridor was 30.96%(7.09 Tg C yr^(-1))for GPP,29.57%(3.39 Tg C yr^(-1))for NEP and 32.40%(3.58 Tg C yr^(-1))for Reco.The changes in carbon fluxes in the oasis area were mainly attributed to human activities(oasis expansion)and temperature,whereas non-oasis area was mainly due to climate factors.Moreover,the future increasing trends were observed for GPP(64.99%),NEP(66.29%)and Reco(82.08%)in the Hexi Corridor.This study provides new insights into the regulatory mechanisms of carbon cycle in the arid oasis and non-oasis area.

文摘Effective motors are crucial for driving astronomical telescopes,especially for those operating in Antarctica,where the harsh environment and operating conditions,including extreme low temperature,ice/snow accumulation,low power consumption,and unattended operation,introduce challenges to the design and development of motor drives.We present the design of a permanent magnet synchronous motor suitable for this environment,conducting a quantitative analysis on the impacts of cryogenic conditions on lubricant performance,differential thermal contraction of metallic components,and remanent flux density of neodymium iron boron(N52)permanent magnets.We also implement a labyrinth seal structure,combined with silicone sealing rings,to mitigate ice crystal intrusion risks.Finite element analysis and laboratory tests demonstrate a maximum torque output of 25 Nm.This kind of motor is used in the Antarctic 15 cm Near Infrared Telescope at Dome A,Antarctica.Operation data shows a total encoder feedback error of 0.0678"for the telescope control system with 15"s^(−1)tracking speed at−56.79°C.These results comprehensively validate the high reliability and precision of the motor under the extreme conditions of the polar environment.

文摘To explore the relationship between dynamic characteristics and wake patterns,numerical simulations were conducted on three equal-diameter cylinders arranged in an equilateral triangle.The simulations varied reduced velocities and gap spacing to observe flow-induced vibrations(FIVs).The immersed boundary–lattice Boltzmann flux solver(IB–LBFS)was applied as a numerical solution method,allowing for straightforward application on a simple Cartesian mesh.The accuracy and rationality of this method have been verified through comparisons with previous numerical results,including studies on flow past three stationary circular cylinders arranged in a similar pattern and vortex-induced vibrations of a single cylinder across different reduced velocities.When examining the FIVs of three cylinders,numerical simulations were carried out across a range of reduced velocities(3.0≤Ur≤13.0)and gap spacing(L=3D,4D,and 5D).The observed vibration response included several regimes:the desynchronization regime,the initial branch,and the lower branch.Notably,the transverse amplitude peaked,and a double vortex street formed in the wake when the reduced velocity reached the lower branch.This arrangement of three cylinders proved advantageous for energy capture as the upstream cylinder’s vibration response mirrored that of an isolated cylinder,while the response of each downstream cylinder was significantly enhanced.Compared to a single cylinder,the vibration and flow characteristics of this system are markedly more complex.The maximum transverse amplitudes of the downstream cylinders are nearly identical and exceed those observed in a single-cylinder set-up.Depending on the gap spacing,the flow pattern varied:it was in-phase for L=3D,antiphase for L=4D,and exhibited vortex shedding for L=5D.The wake configuration mainly featured double vortex streets for L=3D and evolved into two pairs of double vortex streets for L=5D.Consequently,it well illustrates the coupling mechanism that dynamics characteristics and wake vortex change with gap spacing and reduced velocities.

文摘Global warming and nitrogen(N)deposition have a profound impact on greenhouse gas(GHG)fluxes and consequently,they also affect climate change.However,the global combined effects of warming and N addition on GHG fluxes remain to be fully understood.To address this knowledge gap,a globalmeta-analysis of 197 datasets was performed to assess the response of GHG fluxes to warming and N addition and their interactions under various climate and experimental conditions.The results indicate that warming significantly increased CO_(2)emissions,while N addition and the combined warming and N addition treatments had no impact on CO_(2)emissions.Moreover,both warming and N addition and their interactions exhibited positive effects on N_(2)O emissions.Under the combined warming and N addition treatments,warming was observed to exert a positive main effect on CO_(2)emissions,while N addition had a positive main effect on N_(2)O emissions.The interactive effects of warming and N addition exhibited antagonistic effects on CO_(2),N_(2)O,and CH_(4)emissions,with CH_(4)uptake dominated by additive effects.Furthermore,we identified biome and climate factors as the two treatments.These findings indicate that both warming and N addition substantially impact soil GHG fluxes and highlight the urgent need to investigate the influence of the combination of warming and N addition on terrestrial carbon and N cycling under ongoing global change.
