CH and CO emissions in water networks of rice cultivation regions.

Rice cultivation regions have a high density of open water networks to meet the requirements of rice growth and production. These open water networks have a significant risk of carbon (C) emissions due to agricultural production, but the C emissions from these waters are not clearly recorded in previous studies. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the pattern and internal mechanism of methane (CH) and carbon dioxide (CO) emissions from multiple types of waters (i.

Ecological spatial intensive use optimization modeling with framework of cellular automata for coordinating ecological protection and economic development.

With the exposure of excessive intensive use of urban and agricultural space, the optimization of intensive use of ecological space provides a new way to coordinate the global problem of spatial conflict between ecological protection and economic development. However, the coupling accuracy of the existing structure-spatial coupling optimization model is low, which cannot provide method support for the optimization of intensive use of ecological space. To solve this problem, we propose a new model of ecological spatial intensive use optimization (ESIUO) based on the non-stationarity of the Markov state transition probability of the dominant ecosystem service functions (DESFs) and their suitability, and with the help of the framework of cellular automata (CA).

Construction of a Territorial Space Classification System Based on Spatiotemporal Heterogeneity of Land Use and Its Superior Territorial Space Functions and Their Dynamic Coupling: Case Study on Qionglai City of Sichuan Province, China.

Territorial space classification (TSC) provides the basis for establishing systems of national territory spatial planning (NTSP) and supervising their implementation in China, thus has important theoretical and application significance. Most of the current TSC research is related to land use/land cover classification, ignoring the connection of the NTSP policies and systems, failing to consider the spatiotemporal heterogeneity of land use superior territorial space functions (TSFs) and the dynamic coupling between land use and its superior TSFs on the result of TSC. In this study, we integrated the factors influencing the connection of NTSP policies and systems and established a theoretical framework system of TSC from the perspective of spatial form and functional use.

Contribution of atmospheric N deposition to riverine N load in a forest-dominated watershed through field monitoring for three years.

Increased atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition significantly impacts N cycling in freshwater ecosystems. Relative to lakes, the importance of N deposition in riverine N load is less studied. Thus, this study monitored N deposition and riverine N load for three years and then used the export coefficient model to explore N deposition's contribution to riverine N load in a forest-dominated watershed.

Emission of CO and CH from a multi-ditches system in rice cultivation region: Flux, temporal-spatial variation and effect factors.

Man-made multi-level ditches system is designed to irrigate, drain and collect runoff from surrounding fields. It is not only the conduit of water and field carbon, but also the linear-like wetland with complex carbon cycling. However, the contribution of ditches system to CO and CH emission has rarely been assessed.
