为探究秸秆还田(SI)和包膜尿素(PCU配施对冬小麦农田土壤氨挥发(NH3)和氧化亚氮(N2O)排放的影响,以中国西北地区冬小麦田为研究对象,于202010月开展了一项为期两年的大田试验,试验设置5个处理,即不施氮肥(N0)、施用未包膜尿素(US0+U150 kg N ha-1)、秸秆配施USI+U)、施用PCUS0+PCU150 kg N ha-1)以及秸秆配施PCUSI+PCU分析了SI 和不同种类尿素配施对土壤 NH3 挥发、N2O 排放、冬小麦产量、单位产量NH3排放强度(INH3) 和单位产量 N2O 排放强度(IN2O) 的影响。结果表明,与不添加秸秆处理相比,SI处理NH3 排放量增加了20.98~34.35%,这是由于SI提高了土壤铵态氮(NH4+-N)含量和土壤孔隙度含水率(WFPS)。同时,SI通过增加土壤无机氮(SIN)含量、WFPS 和土壤微生物量导致 N2O 排放量增加了 13.31~49.23%然而,与U处理相比,施用 PCU降低了土壤 SIN 含量,从而使 NH3  N2O 排放量分别减少了 45.99-58.07% 18.08-53.04%。此外, SI PCU 施用对冬小麦产量没有显著性影响P>0.05)。 S0+PCU SI+PCU 处理下,INH3IN2O的值最低。综,在中国西北地区,单一施用 PCU 以及秸秆与PCU配施是减少冬小麦农田气态氮排放和维持高产田管理策略。



Abstract  

The combined effects of straw incorporation (SI) and polymer-coated urea (PCU) application on soil ammonia (NH3) and nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from agricultural fields have not been comprehensively evaluated in Northwest China.  We conducted a two-year field experiment to assess the effects of combining SI with either uncoated urea (U) or PCU on soil NH3 emissions, N2O emissions, winter wheat yields, yield-scaled NH3 (INH3), and yield-scaled N2O (IN2O).  Five treatments were investigated, no nitrogen (N) fertilizer (N0), U application at 150 kg N ha–1 with and without SI (SI+U and S0+U), and PCU application at 150 kg N ha–1 with and without SI (SI+PCU and S0+PCU).  The results showed that the NH3 emissions increased by 20.98–34.35% following SI compared to straw removal, mainly due to increases in soil ammonium (NH4+-N) content and water-filled pore space (WFPS).  SI resulted in higher N2O emissions than under the S0 scenario by 13.31–49.23% due to increases in soil inorganic N (SIN) contents, WFPS, and soil microbial biomass.  In contrast, the PCU application reduced the SIN contents compared to the U application, reducing the NH3 and N2O emissions by 45.99–58.07 and 18.08–53.04%, respectively.  Moreover, no significant positive effects of the SI or PCU applications on the winter wheat yield were observed.  The lowest INH3 and IN2O values were observed under the S0+PCU and SI+PCU treatments.  Our results suggest that single PCU applications and their combination with straw are the optimal agricultural strategies for mitigating gaseous N emissions and maintaining optimal winter wheat yields in Northwest China.
