[0055] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0056] Embodiment 1
[0057] The embodiment of the present invention discloses a method for determining soil carbon sequestration and emission reduction in the field, referring to Figure 1 , the steps include:
[0058] S1. Conduct stratified organic carbon testing, microbial activity testing, bulk density testing, and temperature and humidity testing on the sampling holes to assess the current scale and vertical distribution characteristics of the soil carbon pool, and take into account the determination of multiple factors affecting soil carbon sequestration and emission reduction;
[0059] S2, collect gas from the sampling hole and monitor the changes in the concentration of carbon dioxide and methane in the gas;
[0060] Due to CO 2 Molecules have strong absorption characteristics for infrared light in a specific infrared band (near 4.26μm). Therefore, the NDIR sensor can emit broad-spectrum infrared light through the gas sample, detect the attenuation of the transmitted light intensity, and use the Lambert-Beer Law to calculate CO 2 concentration.
[0061] For methane, tunable diode laser absorption technology is used for detection.
[0062] S3. Determine the carbon dioxide and methane emission fluxes according to the concentration changes, and make a correction to the emission fluxes using the microbial activity test results;
[0063] In one embodiment, after the gas collection box is sealed, the change of gas concentration in the box over time is continuously monitored (e.g., recorded every 10 seconds); then the concentration-time curve is fitted, usually a linear or nonlinear growth (e.g., CO 2 Emission flux); finally, the emission flux is determined by the following formula:
[0064]
[0065] Where C represents the concentration of carbon dioxide or methane in the gas, dC / dt represents the concentration change rate, V represents the volume of the collection box, A represents the contact area between the collection box and the soil, M represents the molar mass of the gas, R represents a constant, and T represents the temperature.
[0066] Then, the emission flux is corrected once using the microbial activity test results, including:
[0067]
[0068] In the formula, F raw represents the emission flux, ATP base Indicates reference microbial activity, ATP current It represents the current microbial activity detection value, and the exponent β represents the nonlinear effect of microbial activity on respiration, preferably 0.5.
[0069] This application is the first to introduce microbial activity as a dynamic correction factor into flux calculation, breaking through the limitation of traditional models that only rely on environmental parameters.
[0070] S4. Determine the total soil carbon storage based on the organic carbon detection results, bulk density detection, and temperature and humidity detection, and perform a secondary correction on the initially corrected emission flux using the total soil carbon storage; the secondary correction integrates the spatial distribution of carbon storage, physical structure, and moisture status, combines short-term microbial respiration signals with long-term carbon stability, realizes the leap from "instantaneous flux monitoring" to "net carbon sequestration potential assessment", and provides core quantitative decision-making parameters for climate-smart agriculture. Specifically,
[0071] In this embodiment, determining the total soil carbon storage based on the organic carbon detection results, bulk density detection, and temperature and humidity detection includes:
[0072]
[0073] where C stock represents the total carbon storage, SOC i represents the organic carbon content of the i-th soil layer, ρ i represents the bulk density of the i-th soil layer, d i represents the depth of the i-th layer, θ i represents the volumetric water content of the i-th layer.
[0074] Perform a secondary correction on the initially corrected emission flux using the total soil carbon storage; including:
[0075]
[0076] where F adj represents the initially corrected emission flux, a is an empirical decay coefficient, preferably taken as 0.05 - 0.1, C inert represents the bottom-layer inert carbon storage, which can be directly obtained from organic carbon.
[0077] S5. Determine the carbon sequestration amount based on the emission flux after the secondary correction, and determine the emission reduction potential index in combination with the emissions.
[0078] Determining the carbon sequestration amount based on the emission flux after the secondary correction respectively includes:
[0079]
[0080] where C loss represents the carbon loss amount, t 1 and t 2 represent the monitoring time interval, represents the secondary corrected emission flux of carbon dioxide, represents the secondary corrected emission flux of methane;
[0081] In this embodiment, CH 4 is converted to carbon equivalent according to GWP-100 (1 Kg CH4 is approximately 25 Kg CO 2 -eq)
[0082] C net =C input -C loss
[0083] In the formula, C net Indicates carbon sequestration, reflecting the net change of soil carbon pool, C input It represents the amount of carbon input. It can be measured directly: through field experiments to determine the amount of litter, root biomass, etc., and estimate based on the carbon content (usually 40-50%); or estimated through models: if there is a lack of measured data, it can be estimated using empirical models based on crop yield and management measures (such as the proportion of straw returned to the field).
[0084] The calculation formula of emission reduction potential index is:
[0085]
[0086] In the formula, C net Indicates the amount of carbon fixed, C net.max It represents the regional or historical maximum net carbon sequestration, which can be determined through model simulation or long-term observation. current represents the secondary corrected flux value; and
[0087]
[0088] F baseline It indicates that the benchmark flux is determined based on historical data or regional default values. When historical flux data is lacking, it can be derived as follows:
[0089]
[0090] Where k is the regional carbon loss coefficient, D is the depth of the sampling hole, C stock is the total carbon storage, and f(T,θ) represents the temperature and humidity control function.
[0091] This application adopts a two-stage dynamic correction for the emission flux, including:
[0092] Nonlinear correction of microbial activity: The microbial activity index (α=0.5) was introduced for the first time to perform nonlinear correction on the emission flux. Based on the logistic growth characteristics of microbial respiration, the flux calculation error was reduced from ±15% of the traditional linear model to ±5%.
[0093] Carbon reserve decay compensation mechanism: By comparing the total carbon reserve with the inert carbon baseline value, the flux value is dynamically adjusted using the empirical decay coefficient (β=0.05-0.1), effectively distinguishing the contribution of the active carbon pool from the stable carbon pool, and improving the accuracy of long-term carbon fixation prediction by 20%.

[0102] ERI > 30%: High emission reduction potential (green), it is recommended to maintain management;
[0103] 10% < ERI < 30%: Medium potential (yellow), it is recommended to optimize fertilization;
[0104] ERI < 10%: Low potential (red), systematic improvement is required.
[0105] During operation, first, according to the required sampling depth, the probe is positioned by the detection host, and the gas collection box contacts the ground. At this time, the airbag is inflated to complete the seal; then the sample is pumped to the collection box by a gas pump; when the required gas pressure is reached, the valve 1 is opened and then analyzed by the gas analyzer, and then uploaded to the detection host.

[0108] Preferably, in order to solve the stability problem of the traditional single-rod structure, the probe is designed as a four-legged probe in the present application.
