CONSTRAINTS IN WATER MANAGEMENT ON AGRICULTURAL LANDS1

ABSTRACT Whether the goal is minimizing water quality degradation in receiving streams or maximizing agricultural production on existing croplands; the solutions are identical - improved water management practices. Technology has succeeded in developing feasible solutions to improving irrigation water management, but the law has been slow to encourage or direct implementation. The villain of the western United States water problem is the property right concept of the appropriation doctrine. Improving water management also implies organizational improvements. Also, the so-called “human factor” involves questions of inefficiency and ineffectiveness, that when examined under the criteria of efficacy, may dictate a policy of continuing present practices in certain localities or regions with little technological intervention. The present effort for improving water quality management implies, therefore, a manyfold attack aimed at increasing project irrigation efficiency and effectiveness, under the larger rubric of efficacy and the achievement of larger social goals.     

A HYBRID COMPUTER PROGRAM FOR PREDICTING THE CHEMICAL QUALITY OF IRRIGATION RETURN FLOWS1

ABSTRACT. A hybrid computer program was developed to predict the water and salt outflow from a river basin in which irrigation is the major user of water. The model combines a chemical model which predicts the quality of water percolated through a soil profile with a general hydrologic model. The chemical model considers the reactions that occur in the soil, including the exchange of calcium, magnesium, and sodium cations on the soil complex, and the dissolution and precipitation of gypsum and lime. The chemical composition of the outflow is a function of these chemical processes within the soil, plus the blending of undiverted inflows, evaporation, transpiration, and the mixing of sub surface return flows with groundwater. The six common ions of western waters, namely calcium (Ca⁺⁺), magnesium (Mg⁺⁺), sodium (Na⁺), sulfate (SO₄⁼), chloride (Cl^?), and bicarbonate (HCO₃^?) were considered in the study. Total dissolved solids (TDS) outflow was obtained by adding the individual ions. The overall model operates on a monthly time unit. The model was tested on a portion of the Little Bear River basin in northern Utah. The model successfully simulated measured outflows of water and each of the six ions for a 24-month period. The usefulness of the model was demonstrated by a management study of the prototype system. For example, preliminary results indicated that the available water supply could be used to irrigate additional land without unduly increasing the salt outflow from the basin. With minor adjustments the model can be applied to other hydrologic areas.

Effects of threat management interactions on conservation priorities

Decisions need to be made about which biodiversity management actions are undertaken to mitigate threats and about where these actions are implemented. However, management actions can interact; that is, the cost, benefit, and feasibility of one action can change when another action is undertaken. There is little guidance on how to explicitly and efficiently prioritize management for multiple threats, including deciding where to act. Integrated management could focus on one management action to abate a dominant threat or on a strategy comprising multiple actions to abate multiple threats. Furthermore management could be undertaken at sites that are in close proximity to reduce costs. We used cost‐effectiveness analysis to prioritize investments in fire management, controlling invasive predators, and reducing grazing pressure in a bio‐diverse region of southeastern Queensland, Australia. We compared outcomes of 5 management approaches based on different assumptions about interactions and quantified how investment needed, benefits expected, and the locations prioritized for implementation differed when interactions were taken into account. Managing for interactions altered decisions about where to invest and in which actions to invest and had the potential to deliver increased investment efficiency. Differences in high priority locations and actions were greatest between the approaches when we made different assumptions about how management actions deliver benefits through threat abatement: either all threats must be managed to conserve species or only one management action may be required. Threatened species management that does not consider interactions between actions may result in misplaced investments or misguided expectations of the effort required to mitigate threats to species.     

紫色土N2O排放及氨氧化微生物群落结构对玉米秸秆与化肥减量配施的响应

以紫色土为研究对象,采用静态箱-气相色谱法,通过田间原位试验,设置了对照(CK)、常规施肥(F)、秸秆与全量化肥配施(100FS)、秸秆分别与化肥减量30%(70FS)、40%(60FS)、50%(50FS)处理,观测了玉米秸秆与化肥配施下的菜地土壤N2O排放动态变化特征,并利用克隆技术和实时荧光定量PCR技术,结合土壤理化性质和氨氧化微生物amoA功能基因丰度,分析了秸秆与化肥配施对土壤N2O排放及相关微生物的影响,以期为调控和减缓紫色土N2O排放提供理论依据.结果表明,玉米秸秆与化肥配施处理较F处理提高了土壤N2O排放量和试验期内的累积排放量,其中100FS处理的N2O排放量最高[57.59~6 238.02μg·(m2·h)-1],累积排放量高达60.76 kg·hm-2.与F处理相比,秸秆与化肥配施处理降低了土壤铵态氮和硝态氮含量,提高了土壤有机质含量,但对土壤总氮和pH值没有显著的影响.本试验条件下,土壤AOB amoA基因拷贝数比AOA高出1~2个数量级,其中F处理的AOA amoA基因拷贝数(50.9×103copies·g~(-1))明显高于其他处理,但AOB amoA基因拷贝数最低(1.36×105copies·g~(-1)).100FS处理降低了AOA和AOB amoA基因多样性指数和均匀度,同时也显著降低了AOA amoA基因拷贝数,但秸秆与化肥减量配施可以提高AOA和AOB amoA基因多样性,同时显著增加了AOB amoA基因拷贝数.土壤AOA优势菌群OTU1可能是硝化作用的主要驱动者,直接和间接地影响N2O排放.通过冗余(RDA)分析,土壤铵态氮、有机质和有效磷含量对AOA群落结构存在显著影响(P0.05,蒙特卡罗算法);土壤可溶性有机氮、总氮、速效钾以及有效磷含量显著影响AOB群落结构(P0.05,蒙特卡罗算法),其中AOB对不同环境因子的耐受性和生态位低于AOA.总体上,玉米秸秆配施60%~70%的化肥,在保证蔬菜产量的前提下,有效提高了AOA和AOB amoA基因多样性,在一定程度上减缓了土壤N2O排放.     

基于Fisher判别法岩溶塌陷倾向性等级分类预测

为准确预测岩溶塌陷倾向性的等级分类,通过分析大量观测实例,选取岩性系数、岩体结构系数、地下水系数、覆盖层系数、地形地貌系数和环境条件系数作为模型判别因素。对12个实际观测样本进行训练,建立了基于Fisher判别分析法(FDA)的岩溶塌陷倾向性等级分类预测模型。借助SPSS软件工具,得到判别模型的4个判别函数。根据判别函数对训练样本进行回判,并对2个待判样本进行预测。结果显示:第一、第二判别函数的综合判别效率达到100%,大于规定的85%,满足工程实际应用需求;对训练样本进行回判时,误判率为零,同时对待判样本的分类预测准确率为100%。

污染源位置对气体污染物影响的数值模拟

在自然通风、置换通风和单侧送侧回式通风3种方式下,通过改变污染源位置,运用CFD软件模拟研究了办公室内苯污染物的浓度分布规律,比较得出最佳通风方式下的最合理污染源位置。结果表明,3种通风方式下污染源放置的最合理位置是点3;苯污染源处于位置3时,3种通风方式中自然通风各平面苯污染物平均浓度普遍相对最高,而单侧送侧回方式的相对最低,置换通风居于二者之间。最终确定单侧送侧回通风方式下污染源处于位置3时为最佳物理模型,在该模型下办公室内通风效果最好,能够有效地排出室内气体污染物。因此,不同污染源位置对办公室内空气品质的影响不同。
