Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of simulation technology for carbon and nitrogen cycle processes in paddy fields, specifically involving the design of a biochar simulation method for carbon and nitrogen cycle processes in paddy fields based on the DNDC model. Background Technology
[0002] Rice, as one of the world's staple crops, is crucial for ensuring global food security. In pursuit of high yields, frequent irrigation and fertilization of rice paddies have led to a significant increase in greenhouse gas emissions, exacerbating global warming. my country, as a major agricultural country and rice producer, has greenhouse gas emissions from rice paddies reaching a staggering 196 million tons of CO2e. Against the backdrop of food security and global warming, reducing greenhouse gas emissions from my country's rice systems and coordinating the sustainability of rice production with the potential for greenhouse gas emission reduction is of significant practical importance. Therefore, in recent years, carbon sequestration and emission reduction in rice paddies have attracted increasing attention from scholars, resulting in a proliferation of measures and methods. However, most commonly used rice paddy carbon sequestration and emission reduction measures focus on single aspects such as rice varieties, cultivation patterns, farming methods, and management fertilization, without comprehensively considering the carbon source and sink functions of the rice ecosystem, making it difficult to form a "low-emission-high-sink-high-yield-high-efficiency" rice system. Biochar, a high-carbon and difficult-to-decompose material obtained by anaerobic high-temperature decomposition and carbonization of agricultural waste (such as straw), has a "carbon negative effect". It can be applied to the soil to fix active carbon in the soil into a stable state and prevent it from being mineralized into greenhouse gases. It is considered to be the most promising and greenest solution for carbon sequestration and emission reduction in paddy fields.
[0003] Carbon sequestration and emission reduction in paddy field ecosystems are closely related to their water, carbon, and nitrogen cycles. These processes are complex and fragile, easily influenced by soil properties, farming practices, and climate. While research on biochar addition for carbon sequestration, emission reduction, yield increase, and efficiency improvement in paddy fields has some foundation, most studies remain in the exploratory stage of short-term field trials and indoor cultivation experiments. Rice production is sensitive to human activities and climate change; relying solely on short-term field trials cannot quickly determine the current status and trends of rice agricultural production under multiple scenarios. Currently, numerous biogeochemical process models for simulating water, carbon, and nitrogen cycles in farmland systems have been developed both domestically and internationally, such as the DNDC model. This model can simulate the migration and transformation of water, carbon, and nitrogen in paddy fields under different soil, climate, and management conditions, outputting various results such as carbon and nitrogen footprints, greenhouse gas emissions, and yield, demonstrating significant simulation advantages. However, like other biogeochemical process models, the DNDC model lacks a dedicated biochar module, making it difficult to accurately describe the absorption rate of carbon and nitrogen substrates in paddy field water by added biochar and its life cycle in the soil, thus hindering accurate simulation of the biochar-based water, carbon, and nitrogen cycle in paddy fields. Summary of the Invention

[0051] S2. Conduct experiments on adding biochar to paddy fields and obtain experimental monitoring data on the rice ecosystem under biochar treatment.
[0052] In this embodiment of the invention, the biochar addition experiment in paddy fields includes different application levels of biochar in a farmland micro-plot experiment. The area of the farmland micro-plot is 1m×1m, and the different application levels of biochar include: CK: represents the blank control without biochar application, corresponding to 0 kg / m³. 2 Biochar application level.
[0053] BC1.5: corresponds to 1.5 kg / m 2 Biochar application level.

[0055] BC4.5: corresponds to 4.5 kg / m 2 Biochar application level.
[0056] BC6: corresponds to 6 kg / m 2 Biochar application level.
[0057] In this embodiment of the invention, the experimental monitoring data includes physiological indicators, soil indicators, yield indicators, and greenhouse gas indicators at different rice growth stages.
[0058] The rice growth period includes the greening stage, tillering stage, jointing and heading stage, grain filling and milk stage, and yellow ripening and harvesting stage.

[0060] Soil indicators include paddy field soil moisture content, field capacity, saturated water content, soil organic carbon content, soil ammonia nitrogen content, soil nitrate nitrogen content, soil total nitrogen content, and soil soluble organic carbon content.
[0061] In this embodiment of the invention, the soil moisture content, field water holding capacity, and saturated moisture content of paddy fields were determined by the drying method; the soil organic carbon content was determined by the potassium dichromate-external heating method; the soil ammonia nitrogen content and soil nitrate nitrogen content were determined by the KCl extract-spectrophotometer method; the soil total nitrogen content was determined by the Kjeldahl nitrogen determination method; and the soil soluble organic carbon content was determined by a total organic carbon analyzer (TOC-L analyzer).

[0064] In this embodiment of the invention, the emission fluxes and cumulative emissions of carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide are monitored using a manual static dark chamber-gas chromatography method. The specific method is as follows: A1. Design and fabricate an artificial static darkroom. The artificial static darkroom consists of a cylindrical box body made of 5mm thick PVC material and a circular base. The diameter of the bottom surface of the cylindrical box body is 32cm, and the height is 120cm. The top of the circular base has a sealing groove 20mm wide and 50mm deep. The box body is sealed with water or soil during gas sampling. A miniature electric fan is installed at the top of the cylindrical box body. A thermometer probe is inserted into an opening next to the miniature electric fan to correct for sampling errors caused by temperature rise inside the box. A 20cm long gas sampling tube, a three-way valve, and a 50ml syringe are installed on one side of the cylindrical box body. Two holes of the three-way valve are connected to the gas sampling tube and the syringe, respectively. The three-way valve is used to first establish a gas sampling state, ensuring that the syringe collects gas from the darkroom. After the syringe collects gas, the three-way valve is used to close the box, the syringe is removed, and the gas collected in the syringe is injected into the gas sampling bottle. Finally, a new syringe is used to collect gas from the darkroom for the next time period. The cylindrical box is covered with tin foil to reduce the impact of solar radiation on the internal temperature and achieve the purpose of heat insulation.
[0065] A2. Before gas sampling, fill the sealing groove of the circular base with water to ensure that the cylindrical box can be sealed after placement. Let it stand for 2-3 minutes to allow CO2, CH4 and N2O in the box to mix thoroughly and evenly.
[0066] A3. During the critical growth period of rice, artificial static dark boxes were placed in the rice field every 5-7 days. Gas collection was carried out between 8:00 and 11:00, which best represents the average level of CO2, CH4 and N2O emissions on that day. Samples were taken once every 10 minutes for a total of 3 samplings. At the same time, the water depth, soil temperature and air temperature were recorded.
[0067] In this embodiment of the invention, if abnormal temperature occurs during the rice growing season, the number of samplings should be increased appropriately, while if heavy rainfall occurs, sampling should be postponed.
[0068] A4. The gas collected in the gas sampling cylinder is analyzed using a gas chromatograph (GC, 7890A), and the emission fluxes and cumulative emissions of carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide are calculated: in F This indicates the emission flux of carbon dioxide, methane, or nitrous oxide, expressed in mg / (m³). 2 / h), ρ This indicates the density of carbon dioxide, methane, or nitrous oxide under standard conditions. H This indicates the height of the cylindrical box, in meters (m). DC / dt This indicates the rate of change in the concentration of carbon dioxide, methane, or nitrous oxide within the chamber during the sampling process, expressed in ml / (m³). 3 / h), T This indicates the average temperature inside the cylindrical box, expressed in °C. P This indicates the air pressure inside the cylindrical box. P 0 represents standard atmospheric pressure, which is taken in this embodiment of the invention. P = P 0, This indicates the cumulative emissions of carbon dioxide, methane, or nitrous oxide, expressed in kg / hm². 2 , Indicates the first i The emission flux of carbon dioxide, methane, or nitrous oxide at each sampling time, in mg / (m³). 2 / h), Indicates the first i The sampling time is expressed in days (d). , n Indicates the number of samples.
[0069] On a 100-year timescale, the warming potential of methane and nitrous oxide is 27.9 times and 273 times that of nitrogen dioxide, respectively. The formula for calculating the Global Warming Potential (GWP) is as follows: The formula for calculating Greenhouse Gas Emission Intensity (GHGI) is as follows: in GWP This represents global warming potential, expressed in kgCO2 / hm². 2 ; , , These represent the cumulative emissions of CH4, N2O, and CO2 during the growing season, expressed in kg / hm². 2 27.9 and 273 represent the values per unit mass of CH4 and N2O on a 100-year timescale. GWP A multiple of CO2. GHGI Greenhouse gas emission intensity is expressed in units of CO2e. Y This indicates rice yield, expressed in kg / hm². 2 .
[0070] S3. Construct a biochar organic fertilizer module based on the DNDC model.
[0071] like Figure 2As shown, the DNDC model primarily uses ecological factors (climate, soil, vegetation, and human activities) to drive the three sub-models of the first component, predicting soil temperature, humidity, pH, Eh, and substrate concentration, respectively. Then, based on soil environmental conditions (soil temperature, humidity, pH, Eh, and substrate concentration), it simulates relevant geochemical and biochemical reactions. The three sub-models of the second component are used to predict carbon and nitrogen gas fluxes (CH4, NO, N2O, NH3) in the farmland ecosystem. The six sub-models in the DNDC model can communicate and transfer data with each other, thus effectively describing and tracking the carbon and nitrogen cycling processes in the farmland ecosystem.
[0072] In embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 3 As shown, the parameters of the biochar organic fertilizer module include basic parameters and characteristic parameters.
[0073] The basic parameters include the carbon-to-nitrogen ratio (C / N), organic carbon, organic nitrogen, ammonia nitrogen, and nitrate nitrogen.
[0074] Characteristic parameters include biochar pH, substrate absorption rate (the absorption rate of ammonia nitrogen, nitrate nitrogen and soluble organic carbon in soil due to the porous nature of biochar), decay rate and turnover residence time of stable biochar ponds, and decay rate and turnover residence time of unstable biochar ponds.
[0075] In embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 3 As shown, the decay rate and turnover residence time of stable and unstable biochar ponds were determined using a two-pond exponential decay model. The two-pond exponential decay model defines biochar as consisting of two parts: a stable biochar pond and an unstable biochar pond. The biochar in the stable biochar pond decays slowly, while the biochar in the unstable biochar pond is easily mineralized and decays faster. The unstable biochar pond constitutes a small proportion, with the remainder being stable biochar that can remain in the soil for a long time. The two biochar ponds decay in parallel without energy exchange. The specific formula for the two-pond exponential decay model is: in Indicates the time elapsed since biochar was applied to the soil. t The remaining inventory after that, Indicates the initial biochar inventory. This indicates a stable biochar pond inventory. This indicates the inventory of unstable biochar ponds. This indicates the decay rate of the stable biochar pond. This indicates the decay rate of the unstable biochar pond. This indicates the turnover residence time in the stabilized biochar tank. This indicates the turnover residence time in the unstable biochar tank.
[0076] S4. The DNDC model was improved based on the biochar organic fertilizer module, and the Biochar-DNDC model was constructed based on the basic data of rice growth and experimental monitoring data.
[0077] S5. The Biochar-DNDC model was calibrated and validated using experimental monitoring data.
[0078] In this embodiment of the invention, the indicators used for calibration and validation of the Biochar-DNDC model include rice yield, soil organic carbon, soil soluble organic carbon, ammonia nitrogen, nitrate nitrogen, methane, and nitrous oxide.
[0079] In this embodiment of the invention, the mean absolute error is used when calibrating and validating the Biochar-DNDC model. MAE Root mean square error RMSE Normalized root mean square error NRMSE Relative root mean square error RRMSE and coefficient of determination R 2 The following formula is used to evaluate the good agreement between the simulation results of the Biochar-DNDC model and the actual data: in n For data number, O i , P i They are respectively i Real-time measured values and simulated values; O m This is the average value observed. y max , y min These are the maximum and minimum values of the measured values, respectively. MAE , RMSE , RRMSE The ideal value is 0; the smaller the value, the better the model simulation effect. R 2 The value ranges from 0 to 1, with the closer the value is to 1, the better the simulation effect. RRMSE It can not only reflect the prediction accuracy of the model, but also be used to compare the accuracy of different models. When NRMSE When it is less than 25%, it indicates that the model fits well; when NRMSE A result within the range of 25% to 30% indicates that the model fit is acceptable.
[0080] S6. The validated Biochar-DNDC model was used to simulate the carbon and nitrogen cycle process in biochar paddy fields.
[0081] Based on the Biochar-DNDC model, considering various scenarios such as biochar application, nitrogen fertilizer application, rice irrigation patterns, and future climate, multi-scenario simulations of water, carbon, and nitrogen cycles in paddy field soil were conducted. Details of the model's multi-scenario settings are shown in Table 1. Three representative radiative forcing scenarios (SSP1-2.6, SSP2-4.5, and SSP5-8.5) were selected (low, medium, and high), and the simulation model chosen was the BCC-CSM2-MR climate system model developed by the National Climate Center (Beijing) (BCC).

For yield, compared to DNDC, the Biochar-DNDC model has higher R-values during the periodic and validation phases. 2 The RRMSE and NRMSE values are all significantly low, with NRMSE less than 11.09%, far below 25%, indicating a good model fit. Furthermore, the mean RRMSE of the Biochar-DNDC model is 0.085 kg / hm². 2 The value was significantly lower than that of the DNDC model (0.134 kg / hm). 2 This indicates that the Biochar-DNDC model improves accuracy by 36.95% compared to the original DNDC model. (Biochar-DNDC model R...) 2 The yield values for the Biochar-DNDC model were 0.86 and 0.56 during the rate-setting and validation periods, respectively, both higher than those of the DNDC model. Therefore, the rice yield simulation results after adding biochar were more accurate in the Biochar-DNDC model than those in the DNDC model.
[0084] Regarding SOC content, both models performed well in the rate-period simulation of SOC.

Comparing the mean values of the RRMSE rate during the periodic and validation periods, the Biochar-DNDC model (0.067 g / kg) had a smaller value than the DNDC model (0.094 g / kg), indicating that the Biochar-DNDC model improved the accuracy of SOC simulation by 28.74% compared to the DNDC model.
[0085] For DOC content, the mean values of MAE, RMSE, NRMSE, and RRMSE of the Biochar-DNDC model were all lower than those of the DNDC model. 2 The results are higher than those of the DNDC model, indicating that the Biochar-DNDC model simulates DOC better and more accurately than the DNDC model. Comparing RRMSE, the Biochar-DNDC model shows a 16.88% improvement in accuracy compared to the DNDC model, demonstrating that the Biochar-DNDC model has a more precise DOC simulation effect.
[0086] For NH4 + -N content, as shown in Table 2, indicates that the values of MAE, RMSE, NRMSE, and RRMSE statistical indicators were lower during the rate-period period than during the validation period.
