[0020] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. 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 making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0021] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0022] Figure 1 A flow chart of the method provided in the embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. Figure 1 As shown, the present invention provides a comprehensive environmental nitrogen threshold assessment method, comprising: Step 100: Identify the main nitrogen pollution issues based on the environmental characteristics and pollution status of the target area; Step 200: For each nitrogen pollution problem, refer to the preset environmental quality standards and literature research to select the corresponding nitrogen threshold standard CL(i); where i represents the i-th indicator; Step 300: Use monitoring data and model simulation to obtain the preliminary evaluation value N of each indicator pre (i); Step 400: Initial evaluation value N pre (i) Perform correction to obtain the corrected evaluation value N cor (i); Step 500: Correct the evaluation value N cor (i) Compare with the nitrogen threshold standard CL(i) of the corresponding threshold and calculate the nitrogen load reduction E(i) of each indicator; Step 600: If E(i)>0, output the sub-item emission reduction target and recommended measures for the corresponding indicator; if E(i)=0, record it as a compliance status.

[0023] Specifically, the issues selected in step 100 of this embodiment include: atmospheric nitrogen deposition, total nitrogen load in surface water, groundwater nitrate, atmospheric NH3, and atmospheric N2O.

[0024] Optionally, step 200 of this embodiment includes: Step 201: The nitrogen deposition threshold is estimated using the steady-state mass balance method with reference to existing literature (Duan Lei. Study on the critical load zoning of acid deposition in China [D]. Beijing: Tsinghua University, 2000). The calculation formula is as follows:

[0025]

[0026]

[0027]

[0028]

[0029] Where, CL(S), CL(N), CL max (N), CL nut (N) are sulfur deposition threshold, nitrogen deposition threshold, acidification nitrogen threshold, and nutritional nitrogen threshold. * dep (BC = Ca 2+ + Mg 2+ + Na + + K + ) is the amount of basic cation precipitation after sea salt correction; BC w is the rate at which soil weathering produces base cations, Bc u (Bc = Ca 2+ + Mg 2+ + K + ) is the rate at which plants absorb basic cations; N i is the nitrogen mineralization rate; N u is the rate at which plants absorb nitrogen; N de is the denitrification rate of nitrogen; f de is the denitrification rate; N le,crit is the critical nitrogen leaching rate; ANC le,crit is the critical alkalinity leaching rate. It is an intermediate calculation parameter used to calculate the acidification nitrogen threshold.

[0030] Step 202: The nitrogen load threshold for surface water is 1.0 mg L according to the existing quality standard of my country, Environmental Quality Standard for Surface Water (GB3838-2002), Class III water standard. -1 According to the existing literature (Yu CQ, Huang X, Chen H, et al. Managing nitrogen to restore water quality in China [J]. Nature, 2019, 567(7749): 516-520.), the total nitrogen load threshold for surface water in each province was determined by empirical methods, that is, the total nitrogen concentration in the representative watershed of each province reached 1.0 mg L for the first time. -1 Total nitrogen load in the year when Step 203: The nitrate index of groundwater is based on the nitrate limit of 10 mg L specified in my country's "Healthy Standard for Drinking Water" (GB5749-2022).-1 (in N) as the threshold standard.

[0031] Step 204: Since my country currently does not have a quality standard for atmospheric NH3 concentration, the 3 μg m-3 concentration proposed by the Convention on Long-range Transboundary Air Pollution for the protection of higher plant communities and their ecological functions is selected. -3 Critical level of NH3.

[0032] Step 205: The atmospheric N2O threshold is primarily based on my country's established emission reduction strategy under the Paris Agreement's temperature control targets. Based on existing literature (Institute of Climate Change and Sustainable Development ofTsinghua University. China's long-term low-carbon development strategies and pathways [M]. Singapore: Springer, 2022.) on the current status, future emission scenarios, and outcomes of non-CO2 greenhouse gas emissions, achieving the 2°C temperature control target requires a 30% reduction in N2O emissions by 2050 compared to 2020 levels.

[0033] Optionally, step 300 of this embodiment includes: Step 301: Current atmospheric nitrogen deposition is simulated using the coupled air quality model WRF-CMAQ (Community Multiscale Air Quality Modeling System-Weather Research and Forecasting). The model parameters are set based on the actual conditions of the target area, and the source emission inventory and meteorological data are input to simulate nitrogen deposition in the target area for the target year. For example, major anthropogenic emission sources include agriculture, industry, power plants, domestic use, mobile sources, dust, biomass combustion, and solvent use.

[0034] Step 302: The current total nitrogen load to surface water is obtained using the emissions inventory method. This method uses activity data and associated emission coefficients to estimate the system's nitrogen budget and analyze the sources and destinations of nitrogen in the system. Nitrogen loads entering water bodies include agricultural runoff, grassland runoff, forest runoff, nitrogen deposition, sewage discharge, and human and livestock manure. Nitrogen inputs involved in the calculation primarily include biological fixation, chemical fertilizers, atmospheric deposition, and food and feed imports. Nitrogen outputs primarily include NH3 volatilization, output to water bodies, food and feed output, and biomass combustion emissions.

[0035] Step 303: Estimate the agricultural nitrogen surplus by subtracting the nitrogen absorbed by crops from the total nitrogen input to the farmland. Farmland nitrogen input includes chemical fertilizers, organic fertilizers, nitrogen deposition, biological nitrogen fixation, and straw return. Crop nitrogen absorption includes nitrogen absorbed by crop seeds and straw.

[0036] Step 304: The current atmospheric NH3 emissions are derived from the 2019 high-resolution NH3 emission inventory of my country compiled by the National Key R&D Program project "High-efficiency Control Technology of Ammonia Emission Pollution in Agriculture and Animal Husbandry" (data not published). The estimation of farmland NH3 emissions is based on existing literature (Wang C, Liu ZH, Zhang XM, et al. Managing Ammonia for Multiple Benefits Based on Verified High-Resolution Emission Inventory in China [J]. Environ. Sci. Technol. 2025, 59(10): 5131-5144). NH3 emissions from livestock and poultry farming, industrial sources, natural sources, aquaculture sources, grassland sources and other sources can be estimated using the coupled human-nature system (CHANS) developed in the existing literature (GuB J, Ju XT, Chang J, et al. Integrated reactive nitrogen budgets and futuretrends in China [J]. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of theUnited States of America, 2015, 112(28): 8792-8797.).

[0037] Step 305: The current atmospheric N2O emissions are obtained from the Emissions Database for Global Atmospheric Research (EDGAR v7.0).

[0038] Furthermore, step 400 of this embodiment includes: Step 401: Perform a spatiotemporal alignment operation to unify the model simulation output and independent observation data to a consistent time scale and spatial unit. Specifically, this embodiment uses a dual-key index consisting of a geographic unit code and a timestamp to match and bind the data pairs, ensuring that each preliminary assessment value can be mapped to a unique measured data point.

[0039] Step 402: To address the potential for extreme values ​​in the measured data, an outlier removal mechanism based on the box plot method is used for quality control. Specifically, this embodiment calculates the first quartile, third quartile, and interquartile range of the measured data, automatically determining and removing outliers below the lower bound or above the upper bound. Simultaneously, this embodiment synchronously records the removed data in an outlier log for subsequent manual verification or retrospective adjustment. Compared to traditional fixed threshold methods, this method has the advantages of strong adaptability and applicability to different distribution patterns.

[0040] Step 403: After completing data cleaning, this embodiment performs system deviation estimation and correction coefficient calculation. This embodiment calculates the difference between the preliminary evaluation value and the observed value item by item and calculates their arithmetic mean as the system deviation. Subsequently, the correction coefficient for the corresponding indicator is generated by subtracting the system deviation from the preliminary evaluation value and dividing it by the preliminary evaluation value. To prevent the preliminary evaluation value from being zero, which would cause a division by zero anomaly, this embodiment implements a zero protection mechanism, in which case the correction coefficient is directly set to 1. This strategy is computationally simple and has stable convergence, making it suitable for unified correction processing of multiple nitrogen pollution indicators.

[0041] Step 404: To improve the stability and generalization of the correction coefficients, this embodiment incorporates a cross-validation and self-stopping mechanism. Specifically, this embodiment randomly selects no less than 20% of samples from all comparison data pairs to form a validation set. Ten rounds of cross-validation are repeated, and the root mean square error (RMSE) is calculated after each round. When the error decreases by less than 1% over two consecutive rounds, this embodiment automatically terminates the iteration and determines that the correction process has converged and stabilized. This strategy avoids the overfitting problem that can occur with traditional fixed-round validation.

[0042] Step 405: After the calibration is complete, this embodiment continues the result evaluation and quality backtracking process. If the root mean square error (RMS) in the validation set does not exceed a preset threshold, this embodiment confirms the calibration is effective and uses the corrected assessment value as the final result for subsequent nitrogen load reduction calculations. If the error exceeds the threshold, this embodiment returns to the outlier removal step and re-executes data cleaning and calibration calculations until the results meet the accuracy requirements. This closed-loop processing ensures that each assessment result output by this embodiment is fully credible.

[0043] Furthermore, step 500 of this embodiment includes: Step 501: First, read the corrected assessment value obtained in the previous stage and retrieve the corresponding nitrogen threshold standard. Comparing the two, a differential calculation ("current value minus threshold") is performed for each indicator to determine whether it exceeds the standard. This differential operation is a rigid judgment, directly reflecting the absolute difference between the actual corrected nitrogen load and the target threshold, and is a prerequisite for subsequent quantification of emission reductions.

[0044] Step 502: After the difference result is generated, this embodiment immediately performs a positive / negative determination: If the difference is positive, it indicates that the indicator has exceeded the threshold and emission reduction measures are required; if the difference is zero or negative, it is considered to be in compliance. In the event of an exceeding threshold, this embodiment directly determines the difference value as the nitrogen load emission reduction requirement for that indicator, retaining its original unit without conversion to ensure traceability and consistency with the threshold standard.

[0045] Step 503: To prevent negative numbers from interfering with subsequent summary analysis, this embodiment incorporates a "negative" logic when recording emission reductions: Differences in on-target indicators are automatically reset to zero, retaining only positive differences in exceeded indicators. This allows decision makers to intuitively identify the pollution items that require priority treatment and reduces the repetition of redundant data in subsequent reports.

[0046] Step 504: When the indicator number is three, corresponding to groundwater nitrate concentration, this embodiment uses an agricultural source-driven replacement algorithm. This embodiment assumes that the reduction in groundwater nitrate concentration is linearly related to the reduction in agricultural nitrogen surplus in each province or river basin: the agricultural nitrogen surplus of the previous year is first calculated for each province, and then the annual average concentration of groundwater nitrate in the same province is combined to calculate the potential surplus reduction contribution of each province; then, the sum of all provinces is calculated to obtain the total amount of surplus that can be reduced. This total amount directly replaces the original difference and serves as the final reduction target for the groundwater nitrate indicator, thereby realizing a precise governance strategy of source-medium linkage.

[0047] Step 505: After completing the above processing, this embodiment writes the emission reduction amount, compliance status, and (if applicable) agricultural surplus replacement value for each indicator into the result buffer for subsequent use by the result output and control measure matching unit. By combining differential judgment, non-negative processing, and a source-side replacement mechanism, this embodiment achieves differentiated emission reduction accounting for specific media while ensuring simple and efficient calculations. This fully addresses the shortcomings of existing technologies that make it difficult to accurately trace the source of groundwater nitrate and quantify control needs.

[0048] As an optional implementation manner, step 600 of this embodiment includes: Step 601: Based on the emission reduction results calculated in the previous stage, the system first determines whether the emission reduction for each indicator is greater than zero. This determination serves as the entry condition for a logical branch, distinguishing between treatment paths for indicators exceeding standards and those meeting standards, thereby enabling targeted management of different pollution control states. This branch determination is direct and actionable, serving as a prerequisite for the subsequent generation of control recommendations and the creation of a compliance profile.

[0049] Step 602: For indicators determined to be exceeding the standard (i.e., emission reductions greater than zero), this embodiment uses this emission reduction as a sub-target for that pollution indicator. A list of corresponding treatment measures is then matched to the pre-set nitrogen pollution control knowledge base. This list automatically selects a number of recommended measures based on pollution type (e.g., ammonia volatilization, runoff into rivers, nitrate leaching, etc.) and regional attributes (e.g., farmland type, fertilization intensity, groundwater vulnerability, etc.). These measures are then output in a structured "indicator-target-recommendation" triple format, enabling quick reference by policymakers and implementers.

[0050] Step 603: For indicators that have met the target (i.e., where the emission reduction is zero), this embodiment records the corrected assessment value, the corresponding threshold, the determination result of the difference being zero, and the processing timestamp in the target compliance database. This database, as part of the regional target compliance archive management module, is used to generate annual environmental quality reports, support governance effectiveness evaluation, and track indicators dynamically. These records do not generate emission reduction targets or include governance recommendations to avoid wasting resources.

[0051] Step 604: After the above branch outputs are complete, this embodiment packages and organizes the processed results for all indicators and pushes them to output interfaces, including reporting modules, decision support terminals, or remote management platforms. Through this output mechanism, this embodiment implements an integrated closed loop of pollutant identification, assessment, judgment, and response, ensuring that each emission reduction or compliance status has clear quantitative evidence and supporting technical pathways, thereby enhancing the scientific nature, pertinence, and enforceability of environmental governance.
