A field experiment was conducted to investigate dynamics of N2O emissions from rice-wheat fields from December 2006 to June 2007 and the relationships of soil and plant parameters with N2O emissions. The results indicated that N2O emissions from different wheat varieties ranged front 12 to 291 Ixg N2O-N m-2 h 1 and seasonal N2O emissions ranged from 312 to 385 mg N2O-N m -2 In the rice season, it was from 11 to 154 μg N2O-N m-2 h-1 with seasonal N2O emission of 190-216 mg N2O-N m-2. The seasonal integrated flux of N2O differed significantly among wheat and rice varieties showed higher seasonal N2O emissions. In the wheat season, N2O The wheat variety HUW 234 and rice variety Joymoti emissions correlated with soil organic carbon （SOC）, soil NO3-N, soil temperature, shoot dry weight, and root dry weight. Among the variables assessed, soil temperature followed by SOC and soil NO3-N were considered as the important variables influencing N2O emission. N2O emission in the rice season was significantly correlated with SOC, soil NO3-N, soil temperature, leaf area, shoot dry weight, and root dry weight. The main driving forces influencing N2O emission in the rice season were soil NO3-N, leaf area, and SOC.展开更多

Many studies have focused on various agricultural management measures to reduce N 2 O emissions. However, few have investigated soil N 2 O emissions in intercropping systems. In the current study, we investigate whether maize-soybean intercropping treatments could reduce N 2 O emission rates. Two differently configured maize-soybean intercropping treatments, 2:2 intercropping (two rows of maize and two rows of soybean, 2M2S) and 2:1 intercropping (two rows of maize and one row of soybean, 2M1S), and monocultured maize (M) and soybean (S) treatments were performed using a static chamber method. The results showed no distinct yield advantage for the intercropping systems. The total N 2 O production from the various treatments was 0.15 ± 0.04–113.85 ± 12.75 µg m −2 min −1 . The cumulative N 2 O emission from the M treatment was 16.9 ± 2.3 kg ha −1 over the entire growing season (three and a half months), which was significantly higher ( P < 0.05) than that of the 2M2S and 2M1S treatments by 36.6% and 32.2%, respectively. Two applications of nitrogen (N) fertilizer (as urea) at 240 kg N ha −1 each induced considerable soil N 2 O fluxes. Short-term N 2 O emissions (within one week after each of the two N applications) accounted for 74.4%–83.3% of the total emissions. Soil moisture, temperature, and inorganic N were significantly correlated with soil N 2 O emissions ( R 2 = 0.246–0.365, n = 192, P < 0.001). Soil nitrate (NO − )3 and moisture decreased in the intercropping treatments during the growing season. These results indicate that maize-soybean intercropping can reduce soil N 2 O emissions relative to monocultured maize.展开更多
