Abstract Intensive agriculture in Germany is not only highly productive but has also led to detrimental effects the environment. Crop diversification together with new field arrangements considering soil heterogeneities can be an alternative improve resource use efficiency (RUE), ecosystem services (ESS), and biodiversity. Agroecosystem models are tools that help us understand design diversified arrangements. The main goal of this study was review extent which agroecosystem have been used for crop at landscape scale by model requirements purpose. We found several available simulating spatiotemporal scale. For spatial diversification, simplified modelling approaches consider interactions light, water, nutrients, they offer restricted combinations. temporal include major crops (e.g., cereals, legumes, tuber crops). However, parameterization limited marginal carbon nitrogen (N). At scale, decision-making frameworks commonly cropping systems. Within-field rarely considered or studies. Combining static dynamic agroecosystems useful evaluation trade-offs ESS delivery To enhance modeling capabilities simulate systems arrangements, it will necessary representation interactions, inclusion more species options, legacy effects, biodiversity estimations. Newly arrangement requires higher data resolution, generated via remote sensing sensors. propose implementation a framework combines process-based optimized respective experiments testing combined framework.

There is a need for modeling tools capable of estimating CO2 emissions from land application biosolids and manure. The Denitrification Decomposition model (DNDC) was improved this capacity by adding separate manure C pool to disaggregate decomposition the soil organic matter pools. effect temperature on also improved. Data collected two climatically distinct sites in Montreal (Quebec) Truro (Nova Scotia) with corn were used test DNDC simulating yield, moisture, fluxes amended (mesophilic anaerobically digested, composted, or alkaline-stabilized). A third site Harrow (Ontario) verify solid cattle applied corn-soybean field. Crop yields well simulated (rRMSE 4.1-30.1 %) all sites. (0.78 ≤ d 0.93) outperformed default version (0.61 0.9) across Similarly, effectively both (d ≥ 0.88) moisture (0.53 0.91). addition an independent biosolids/manure resulted more accurate simulation seasonal alkalized composted biosolids. modified function alleviated over-prediction shortly after biosolid timing during growing season. enhanced will help simulate best management practices integrated crop-livestock-manure systems, reducing reliance nitrogen fertilizer.

Excessive application of water and nitrogen fertilizer during farmland management practices leads to serious groundwater nitrate pollution. A field experiment was conducted the spring maize growth period in Alxa, Inner Mongolia, China. The soil Water Heat Carbon Nitrogen Simulator (WHCNS) model calibrated by ensemble smoother method (ES(DL)) based on experiment. Then dynamics content, percolation flux, concentration leaching flux were simulated with WHCNS under different fertilization treatments within vadose zone. main conclusions are as follows: ES(DL) is feasible for calibration model. RMSE_Maximum a posteriori (RMSE_MAP) content 0.0301 cm3 cm−3 0.0302 validation, respectively.

Canada has targeted a 30% reduction in N2O emissions from fertilizer by 2030 its commitments to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. To help achieve these commitments, 'Pipes & Valves' conceptual visualization of the DNDC model was combined with DeNitrification-DeComposition (DNDC) evaluate suite nutrient management and conservation practices. The objectives were meet targets as well other reactive-N species (N2O, NH3 NO3- leaching) provide systems approach while increasing corn yields.

The agroecosystem, a critical component of the terrestrial carbon cycle, plays an indispensable role in maintaining balance pools and ensuring global food security. Investigating interplay between crop yield cycle is essential for advancement sustainable agricultural practices. In quest water-efficient solutions, mulched drip irrigation emerges as promising technique to mitigate water scarcity agriculture. arid regions northwest China, where precious resource, understanding impact methods on productivity dynamics crops like spring maize critical. Our study aimed evaluate influence two methods—mulched (DI) border (BI)—on biomass accumulation fluxes by field observation DNDC model simulation comparative analysis. findings based flux data, underscore transformative potential shifting from BI DI. DI was found significantly enhance soil's hydrothermal environment, which crucial fostering optimal conditions growth. This improvement instrumental promoting allocation photosynthetic products aboveground biomass, ultimately leading substantial increase grain yield. results indicated that treatment not only bolstered gross primary (GPP) but also elevated ecosystem respiration (RE) compared treatment. Finally, can net (NEP) fields 6.08 %. Denitrification-Decomposition (DNDC) model, after calibration validation, proved be reliable tool estimating under systems.
