Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of methane emissions from ruminants, and in particular to a method, system, device and storage medium for estimating methane emissions from ruminants. Background Art

[0002] At present, livestock methane emissions are the main source of agricultural greenhouse gas emissions. As one of the countries with the largest number of ruminants in the world, ruminants, mainly cattle and sheep, are the primary source of agricultural methane emissions in my country. Ruminant methane emissions account for about 58.8% of my country's agricultural methane emissions.

[0003] The existing methods for calculating methane emissions from ruminants are mostly based on the internationally accepted IPCC Greenhouse Gas Inventory Guidelines (Tier 2 method) or the simplified algorithms provided by the OECD. These methods usually rely on measuring individual annual emission factors and extrapolating them to regional or national scales. However, these methods do not take into account the regional representativeness of population characteristics and the dynamic changes of environmental factors. They mainly rely on international empirical values or local observation data, which limits the accuracy of the calculations. In addition, although some studies have revised important coefficients based on actual conditions, the classification of existing methods is not detailed in terms of the spatial and temporal changes in ruminant methane emissions. They are only roughly divided according to ruminant species (such as buffaloes and dairy cows), without going deep into sub-classes or regional specific breeds. There are significant changes in the quality and quantity of ruminant feed, feeding methods, and environmental factors (such as temperature and precipitation) in various regions of my country, resulting in regional and seasonal differences in methane emission factors.

[0004] The above-mentioned existing technical solutions have the following defects: the existing ruminant methane emission accounting method does not adequately consider the subdivision of population characteristics and the dynamic changes of environmental factors, resulting in poor regional and seasonal adaptability of the accounting results and low accuracy, so there is room for improvement.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0024] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0025] In one embodiment, as Figure 1 shown, the present application discloses a method for estimating methane emissions from ruminants, which specifically includes the following steps: S10: Obtain the real-time activity data and environmental factor data of ruminants, collect individual animal data, and construct an input data set based on the environmental factor data and individual animal data.

[0026] Specifically, the acquisition of real-time activity data can record data such as the activity level, body weight, and working intensity of livestock through monitoring devices. At the same time, environmental factor information such as environmental temperature, humidity, precipitation, and soil conditions is collected through environmental monitoring devices, and individual characteristic information such as the age, gender, species, and feeding management method of animals is obtained through manual or automated means. These data are marked with time stamps and location information to ensure precise docking with subsequent processing steps.

[0027] S20: Input the input data set into a preset methane emission estimation model to estimate the methane emission factors of ruminants and obtain the spatio-temporal variation results of the emission factors.

[0028] Specifically, various parameters included in the input data set, such as body weight, feed intake, air temperature, and precipitation, will be input into the model by region. The model dynamically calculates parameters such as the total energy intake (GE), feed digestibility (DE), and methane conversion factor (Ym) of livestock, combines region-specific environmental factors. For example, in a certain region, due to higher temperature, the feed digestion efficiency may decrease, and the model will automatically adjust the feed digestibility parameter according to this regional characteristic. At the same time, combined with the individual characteristics of livestock such as body weight and milk production, the methane emissions of each livestock are dynamically estimated. Finally, the emissions of all livestock in the region are superimposed to generate the spatio-temporal variation results of the regional-level methane emission factors. For example, it is predicted that the total methane emissions of a certain species in a certain province in spring are 200 tons, providing a basis for regional methane emission management.

[0029] S30: Based on the spatio-temporal variation results of the emission factors, combined with the real-time activity data, quantify the methane emissions in different regions, analyze the key factors determining the regional distribution characteristics, and generate a regional difference analysis result.

[0030] Specifically, when calculating the regional emission differences, the spatio-temporal variation results of the methane emission factors are grouped according to the geographical location of the region, and the methane emission intensity per unit area is calculated in combination with the livestock density. At the same time, the sensitivity analysis method is used to evaluate the impact of changes in feed quality, feeding methods, livestock population characteristics, and environmental factors on the emission intensity. By changing the values of each factor one by one and recording the emission change trend, it is determined which factors contribute the most to the emission change. For example, it is found that the methane emissions in regions with a higher proportion of crude fiber in the feed increase significantly, then the feed quality can be listed as a factor with a higher priority of influence. Finally, a regional difference analysis report is generated to clarify the emission intensity and key factors in different regions.

[0031] S40: Visualize the spatiotemporal variation results of emission factors and the regional difference analysis results, display the spatial distribution and time variation of the spatiotemporal variation results of emission factors, and generate the corresponding regional emission inventory.

[0032] Specifically, visualization processing includes generating a methane emission heat map based on geographic information system technology, superimposing the total emission data of each region with the geographical boundaries and displaying them through color depth. For example, dark red represents high-emission areas, and light green represents low-emission areas, so as to intuitively show the emission distribution of each region. At the same time, the data of time nodes are used to generate a trend curve of methane emissions over time. For example, the monthly change trend of methane emissions in a certain area throughout the year is plotted, and the peak and trough periods are marked. In addition, the emissions and emission intensity are divided according to administrative regions to generate a text-based emission list. For example, the total emissions of a province in spring are 300 tons and the emission intensity is 2.5 kg / head / day. Key influencing factors such as feed digestibility and stocking density are marked in combination with the results of regional difference analysis to support regional methane emission reduction planning.

[0033] In one embodiment, if Figure 2 As shown, in step S10, an input data set is constructed based on environmental factor data and animal individual data, specifically including: S11: Align environmental factor data and animal individual data in time and space dimensions to ensure data consistency and integrity.

[0034] Specifically, by adding timestamps and spatial tags to each set of data, the environmental factor data and individual animal data are aligned in chronological order. For example, when the weight and feed intake of a cow are collected at a certain point in time, the ambient temperature and precipitation data at the same point in time are automatically matched. At the same time, the environmental data is matched according to the animal's location information. For example, the humidity in the south is higher than that in the north, so the individual data in the same time period needs to be refined by region to ensure that data from different sources are consistent and relevant in time and space.

[0035] S12: Clean the synchronized data, remove missing data and outliers generated during the monitoring process, and complete the missing information through data interpolation and / or historical data supplementation.

[0036] Specifically, for the data missing during the monitoring process due to equipment failures or signal losses, the missing values are estimated by interpolation based on the data values at adjacent time points. For example, after collecting the data of the previous day and the next day, the average value is taken for the missing value. At the same time, the abnormal data beyond the reasonable range is eliminated. For example, when the weight data of a certain cow suddenly becomes negative, it is marked as an abnormal value and eliminated. In addition, for the data points missing for a long time, the key parameters are filled by supplementing with historical data. For example, the data of the same region and the same type of livestock under similar conditions are used for substitution.

[0037] S13: Integrate the data that has been synchronized and processed for abnormalities, and perform standardization processing on time, space, units, and formats to generate an input data set that meets the requirements of the model input.

[0038] Specifically, by unifying the time unit to hours or days, unifying the spatial position to the longitude and latitude coordinate system, and at the same time unifying the units such as feed intake and emission factors to the standard International System of Units. For example, unifying the weight data to kilograms and converting the emission factor data from percentage format to decimal format to ensure that all data formats are consistent with the model input requirements. Finally, the processed data is stored as a structured data file for subsequent calls. For example, it is stored in JSON or CSV format for direct input into the methane emission estimation model for processing.

[0039] In one embodiment, as Figure 3 shown, in step S20, that is, the construction of the methane emission estimation model, specifically includes: S201: Collect the population characteristics, historical environmental factors, and historical feeding management patterns of ruminants in different regions across the country as historical livestock feeding data.

[0040] Specifically, obtain the population characteristics of livestock in different regions through publicly available data, such as the inventory quantity, species distribution, and breeding situation. Combine the local meteorological data to collect the historical environmental factors of each region, such as temperature, humidity, precipitation, and sunshine duration. Obtain the feeding management pattern data such as feed composition, feeding method, and feeding density from feed enterprises and livestock research institutions. Establish a historical livestock feeding database across years and regions by integrating these data. For example, due to the large precipitation in the southern region, the proportion of crude fiber in the feed is relatively high, while in the northern region in winter, the feeding density is greater due to the low temperature. These differences are all recorded in detail for subsequent modeling.

[0041] S202: Classify and spatialize the historical livestock feeding data according to the preset regional scope, seasonal changes, and sub-species categories to construct a training data set based on the regional scale.

[0042] Specifically, the historical data is grouped by administrative division, for example, divided into three - level datasets of province, city, and county. At the same time, it is subdivided into four parts of spring, summer, autumn, and winter according to seasonal changes, and the data is classified according to sub - species categories such as yellow cattle, water buffalo, and yak. Combining the climatic characteristics and feeding management methods of the region, spatial markers are assigned to the data through a geographic information system. For example, longitude and latitude information is added to the summer data of yellow cattle in a certain county. Finally, a training dataset including three - dimensional features of region, season, and subspecies is generated to provide multi - dimensional support for model training.

[0043] S203: Iteratively train a preset deep - learning algorithm according to the training dataset, dynamically model the spatio - temporal changes of parameters such as methane emission factors and feed digestibility, and obtain a methane emission estimation model.

[0044] Specifically, based on the IPCC inventory guidelines Tier2 method as the basic estimation model, that is, using emission factors and activity level data to estimate the total emissions, and inputting the constructed training dataset into a preset deep - learning algorithm, such as a neural - network - based model. By training key parameters such as methane emission factors and feed digestibility in historical data, learn the relationship between each parameter and time and regional characteristics. Through multiple iterations, optimize the weight and bias values so that the model can dynamically predict the changes in methane emissions under different conditions. For example, the model can predict the specific value of the methane conversion coefficient according to the input body weight and feed composition, and at the same time record the loss function value during the training process of the model to ensure that the training converges and outputs the final methane emission estimation model.

[0045] In one embodiment, as Figure 4 shown, in step S20, that is, the construction of the methane emission estimation model, it further includes: S204: Generate a calibration dataset by real - time monitoring the actual methane emissions of livestock, actual activity feeding data, and dynamic change data of environmental factors within the region.

[0046] Specifically, real - time collect the methane gas concentration data emitted, and combine the livestock service monitoring records to obtain data such as its daily activity intensity and feed intake. Real - time obtain environmental data such as temperature, humidity, and precipitation through weather stations within the region. At the same time, conduct preliminary cleaning and processing of the monitoring data, and integrate these real - time monitoring data into a calibration dataset according to region and time. For example, correlate the daily average methane emissions of yellow cattle in a certain area in summer with its feed intake and air temperature to ensure that the calibration data can reflect the actual emission level under real - time conditions.

[0047] S205: Compare the calibration dataset with the estimation results of the methane emission estimation model and calculate the estimation deviation of key parameters.

[0048] Specifically, the actual methane emissions in the calibration dataset are compared one by one with the methane emissions predicted by the model, and the estimation deviation is obtained by calculating the difference between the two. For example, for a certain group of cattle, the calibration dataset shows that their methane emissions are 1.5 kg / day, while the model prediction is 1.7 kg / day, so the deviation value is 0.2 kg / day. At the same time, the estimation results of each key parameter, such as the methane conversion factor and feed digestibility, are compared and analyzed with the actual data, so as to accurately quantify the prediction deviation of the model and output a deviation analysis report.

[0049] S206: Based on the estimation deviation, use the reinforcement learning algorithm to dynamically adjust the model parameter weights and optimize the adaptability of the methane emission estimation model under different regions, seasons and breeding methods.

[0050] Specifically, use the optimization method based on the value function in the reinforcement learning algorithm, take the deviation value as the input of the model loss function, and adjust the model parameter weights through repeated iteration. For example, increase the weights of the key parameters such as feed digestibility in the regions and seasons with large prediction errors, and at the same time reduce the weights of the parameters with small prediction errors. In addition, optimize the search strategy of the model in the parameter space according to the characteristics of different breeding methods. For example, optimize the relevant parameters of feed utilization efficiency for the intensive breeding mode with high stocking density. Finally, enable the model to achieve high-precision methane emission estimation in different regions and seasons.

[0051] In one embodiment, as Figure 5 shown, in step S30, that is, based on the spatio-temporal variation results of the emission factors, combined with the real-time activity data, quantify the methane emissions in different regions, and analyze the key factors determining the regional distribution characteristics to generate the regional difference analysis results, specifically including: S31: Based on the spatio-temporal variation results of the emission factors and the real-time activity data, calculate the difference in methane emission intensity between different regions, and quantify the methane emissions in different regions by the ratio of the total emission amount and livestock density between regions.

[0052] Specifically, statistically analyze the total methane emissions predicted by the model by region, and at the same time obtain the livestock density data of each region. For example, calculate that the average daily total methane emissions in a certain area are 200 kg and the total number of livestock is 100 heads, then the emission intensity is 2 kg / head. Use this intensity index to compare the emission levels of different regions, and at the same time draw a comparison chart of the emission intensity between regions according to the statistical results, for example, showing that the emission intensity of some regions is significantly higher than the average level, providing a basis for subsequent regional management optimization.

[0053] S32: Using the sensitivity analysis method, quantify the contribution of each factor to methane emissions based on different regions, generate a priority ranking of the key influencing factors according to the contribution, and then generate the regional difference analysis result.

[0054] Specifically, by gradually changing the input value of each key factor and observing the change in the methane emissions output by the model, quantify the impact of each factor on emissions. For example, by increasing or decreasing the crude fiber ratio in the feed to observe the change trend of methane emissions. If a 10% change in the feed crude fiber ratio results in a 30% change in emissions, then the contribution of this factor is relatively high. At the same time, conduct similar analyses on other factors such as temperature and feeding density. Sort the factors with relatively high contributions and list them as key influencing factors. Finally, output the analysis result in the form of a table or chart for generating the regional emissions difference report.

[0055] In one embodiment, as Figure 6 shown, in step S40, visualize the spatio-temporal change result of the emission factor and the regional difference analysis result, display the spatial distribution and temporal change of the spatio-temporal change result of the emission factor, and generate the corresponding regional emission inventory, specifically including: S41: Based on geographic information system technology, generate a spatial distribution map of methane emissions to visually display the methane emissions in different regions, and generate a trend curve of the change in methane emissions over time according to the estimated emission data at different time nodes.

[0056] Specifically, visually process the total regional methane emission data output by the model through the GIS platform, draw an emission heat map according to the regional boundaries, and use the depth of color to represent the emission intensity. For example, dark red represents high-emission regions, and light yellow represents low-emission regions. At the same time, plot the predicted emissions at different time nodes as a time curve. For example, display the change trend of methane emissions in a certain region in the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn, and winter to help users understand the temporal fluctuation characteristics of emissions.

[0057] S42: According to the regional difference analysis result, generate the corresponding regional emission inventory according to the preset regional division range.

[0058] Specifically, according to the emission intensity and key influencing factor data in the regional difference analysis, summarize the emissions and rankings of each region into an inventory. The inventory is divided by administrative level, such as province, city, and county, and indicates the total emissions, emission intensity, and main influencing factors of each region. For example, "The methane emissions in a certain city of a certain province are 500 tons / year, the emission intensity is 2.5 kg / head, and the main influencing factor is the crude fiber ratio of the feed". The finally generated inventory can be used for regional policy planning and methane emission reduction management.
