Climate change caused by increasing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions has led to frequent extreme weather events, which seriously threaten sustainable agricultural production. Therefore, it is essential optimize proper irrigation management improve the grain yield, crop water productivity (WPc), economic (EWPc), and lower global warming potential (GWP) GWP Intensity (GWPI). The effect of scheduling methods on GHG remains largely unknown, even though this knowledge management. To address gap, a field experiment was carried out in North China Plain (NCP) for three winter wheat seasons measure influence different WPc, EWPc, GWP, GWPI. Irrigation including 50%, 60%, 70% capacity (FC) were kept main plots methods, sprinkler, drip, flood sub-plots. results revealed that relative sprinkler at 60% FC, drip FC significantly (p < 0.05) improved yield 4.89–7.52%, WPc 1.0–5.4%, EWPc 1.1–5.49%, 7.47–9.34%, GWPI 10.92–15.23%. Compared with increased 5.34–6.81%, 5.65–15.1%, 5.73–15.12%, 10.36–15.16%, 16.22–19.40%.

In recent years, research on farmland soil stability has gained attention due to climate change. Studying the thermal of enzymes at key crop growth stages in response increased CO2, drought, and warming is critical for evaluating change impacts production ecosystem stability. Despite its importance, nutrient cycling remains limited. A pot experiment was conducted using winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), one China’s main grain crops, as object. An artificial chamber used simulate four (jointing stage, flowering filling maturity stage). Different levels CO2 concentration (400 800 μmol mol−1), temperature conditions (current 4 °C higher), water (80% 60% field capacity) were set, their interactions examined. By analyzing sensitivity (Q10) enzyme activities related carbon (C), nitrogen (N), phosphorous (P) cycles different treatments, results showed that doubling decreased C cycle Q10 N P significantly. Additionally, with increasing temperature, while other inconsistent responses. Mild drought significantly N-cycling early stage P-cycling each but mature stage. The interaction between exhibited a single-factor superimposed effect reducing Q10. Moreover, offset mild stress Above-ground biomass, total dissolved nitrogen, nitrate identified primary factors influencing C, N, This study great significance exploring effects global food mechanism functional under future

Agricultural irrigation is important in boosting crop yields especially water-stressed regions, but little known about the distinct climatic effects induced by different methods, particularly North China Plain (NCP) where applied extensively. Here we examine of flood (FI), sprinkler (SI) and drip (DI) over NCP during growing season using dynamic schemes implemented into a coupled land-atmosphere model. The model generally captures spatial distribution surface temperature, relative humidity precipitation. changes regional average temperature FI, SI DI are –0.43, –0.53 –0.19 °C, respectively. relatively larger cooling effect for than that FI associated with enhanced cloud formation. By shifting energy balance, cause wet, cool, cloudy shallow planetary boundary layer, while exhibits smallest indeed inhibits increases convective available potential precipitable water enhance precipitation 0.8–1.2 mm d–1. In contrast, reduced due to within leads warmer drier from June August, which likely upper-level geopotential heights turn suppresses series climate feedbacks. hydrometeorological interactions feedbacks arising methods related rates, frequencies approaches application. While recognized as most water-saving method, it also generates least among three thus less effective safeguarding grain against rising temperatures. Our study emphasizes need more sustainable adaptive ensure food security, conservation stability face change.

ABSTRACT Prior studies have conducted extensive investigations of the water–carbon coupling relationship for aboveground vegetation and shallow soils, but characteristics multivariate controls in deep soils not been fully explored. This has important implications better understanding water carbon cycles ecosystems. In this study, we attempted to examine 18 m profiles under farmland (F), grassland (G), willow (SP), poplar (P) China's Loess Plateau. Specially, at diverse depths scales were explored via wavelet analysis. Individually, conversion from F G, SP, P decreased soil storage within 0–15 by 553 (22% F), 557 (22%), 943 mm (38%). Land use change had little impact on organic or inorganic carbon. Even so, poplar, compared with willow, resulted higher vertical variations Furthermore, land increased coherence between whole layer. comparison F, which was dominated retention, exhibited dominant sequestration. The reduced root‐mean‐square deviation 0.29 (F) 0.13 6‐ 15‐m layer 0.32 0.20 0‐ 2‐m Sand content electrical conductivity both played negative roles maintaining layers different scales, respectively. study endeavors present a novel viewpoint management, potential enhance ecosystem services water‐limited land‐degradation regions.
