Flood Risk Reduction from Agricultural Best Management Practices

Best management practices (BMPs) play an important role in improving impaired water quality from conventional row crop agriculture. In addition to reducing nutrient and sediment loads, BMPs such as fertilizer management, reduced tillage, and cover crops could alter the hydrology of agricultural systems and reduce surface water runoff. While attention is devoted to the water quality benefits of BMPs, the potential co‐benefits of flood loss reduction are often overlooked. This study quantifies the effects of selected commonly applied BMPs on expected flood loss to agricultural and urban areas in four Iowa watersheds. The analysis combines a watershed hydrologic model, hydraulic model outputs, and a loss estimation model to determine relationships between hydrologic changes from BMP implementations and annual economic flood loss. The results indicate a modest reduction in peak discharge and economic loss, although loss reduction is substantial when urban centers or other high‐value assets are located downstream in the watershed. Among the BMPs, wetlands, and cover crops reduce losses the most. The research demonstrates that watershed‐scale implementation of agricultural BMPs could provide benefits of flood loss reduction in addition to water quality improvements.     

Degradation of greenhouse twines derived from natural fibers and biodegradable polymer during composting

Commercial composting operations generally do not accept organic wastes with plastic twines from the greenhouse vegetable industry and the bulk of the waste materials ends up in landfills. The objectives of this paper are to identify environmentally compatible substitutes that could replace the current use of petrochemically derived plastic twines in greenhouse vegetable production, thus diverting them from landfills, and to assess the extent of their degradation via composting. Physical properties of the twines, including linear density, percent weight loss and tensile strength were monitored for the biodegradation tests. A pilot-scale composting trial was conducted in an in-vessel composting system. Results showed that the three biodegradable twine materials (cotton, jute and EcoPLA) could degrade readily in a composting environment within a reasonable time frame. Specifically, at the end of 105 days of composting, 85.3%, 84.8% and 81.1% of weight loss was observed for cotton, jute and EcoPLA, respectively. Furthermore, EcoPLA exhibited a slower decline in tensile strength with time, when compared to jute and cotton.

A Conceptual Model for Defining and Assessing Land Management Units Using a Fuzzy Modeling Approach in GIS Environment

Appropriate land management decisions are important for current and future use of the land to ensure its sustainability. This requires that land management units (LMUs) be specified to enable the identification of specific parameters employed in decision making processes. This paper presents the development of a conceptual model, within geographic information systems (GIS), for defining and assessing LMUs from available biophysical information. The model consists of two main components (sub-models): land quality-based suitability analysis and soil erosion estimation. Using a fuzzy set methodology, the first sub-model was constructed to derive a land suitability index (LSI) for a cropping land utilization type. The LSI thus highlights the suitability grades of every pixel in the study area on a continuous basis. A sub-model of soil erosion was established based on the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) utilising the same spatial data bases employed for structuring the LSI. Using a soil loss tolerance principle, a fuzzy membership function of average annual soil loss (called soil loss index, SLI) was established, leading to compatibility between LSI and SLI for data integration. LMUs were then derived from various combinations of LSI and SLI. The methodology developed shows the significance of the model for refining available land suitability evaluation systems, which take no account of expected land degradation (from erosion) due to a nominated land use. It also provides a valuable guideline for cost-effective GIS applications in the identification and assessment of homogeneous land units, using available spatial information sets, at a finer scale.

自然资源合理利用与经济可持续发展

论文从理论上区分自然资源在经济发展过程中的代价性损失、市场失灵导致的过度性损失I和政府失灵导致的过度性损失II开始,分析了合理利用资源的度就是保证资源利用在代价性损失范围以内。然后从计算是否存在过度性损失入手,间接衡量了合理利用资源的度,进而判断资源利用是否符合代价性损失的标准。其中,分别以森林资源和土地资源为例,讨论了计算过度性损失I和II的方法,测算了S市某林场的过度性损失I和中国1989至1996和1999至2002年间的农地非农化的过度性损失II。结果显示,随着碳价格的变化,所研究林场的过度性损失I(提前砍伐年数)从0年增加到12年,社会净损失也从0增加到9954元h/m²。中国在两阶段内农地非农化过度性损失II共计596548hm²,占这两阶段农地非农化总数量的37.33%。文章最后提供了协调自然资源利用与经济可持续发展的途径。     

贵州省碳酸盐岩地区土壤允许流失量的空间分布

根据决定上覆土层厚度的碳酸盐岩建造中的泥质含量,贵州碳酸盐岩地区的岩石组合类型可分为连续性碳酸盐岩组合、碳酸盐岩夹碎屑岩组合、碳酸盐岩与碎屑岩互层组合,按贵州碳酸盐岩的风化溶蚀速率平均值49.67 mm/ka计算了碳酸盐岩不同岩石组合类型的成土速率,并以此作为相应岩石类型地区的土壤允许流失量。连续性碳酸盐岩组合地区土壤允许流失量小于6.84 t/(km2.a),为土壤侵蚀极度敏感区;碳酸盐岩夹碎屑岩组合地区土壤允许流失量小于45.53 t/(km2.a),为土壤侵蚀重度敏感区;碳酸盐岩与碎屑岩互层组合地区土壤允许流失量小于103.46 t/(km2.a),为土壤侵蚀中度敏感区。说明贵州碳酸盐岩地区的土壤侵蚀分级标准存在空间分异。强度石漠化主要分布在土壤允许流失量小于6.84 t/(km2.a)的连续性碳酸盐岩地区,尤其是连续性石灰岩地区分布最广。     

减磷配施有机肥对紫色土旱坡地磷素流失的消减效应

采用野外径流小区对紫色土旱坡地2014年雨季(5~8月)3次典型降雨产流进行定点监测,研究了优化施肥(P)、优化施肥+猪粪有机肥(MP)、优化施肥+秸秆还田(SP)、优化施肥量氮磷钾均减20%+猪粪有机肥(MDP)、优化施肥量氮磷钾均减20%+秸秆还田(SDP)、不施磷肥(P0)等不同方案对紫色土旱坡地地表径流和壤中流磷素流失的影响.结果表明,壤中流是雨季径流主要输出途径,而次降雨地表径流总磷(TP)平均含量和流失负荷都远高于壤中流;地表径流磷素流失是紫色土旱坡地雨季磷素流失主要方式.发现减磷配施有机肥对紫色土旱坡地坡面径流中磷素流失有显著消减效应,SDP、MDP分别比优化施肥P的总磷含量降低57%和48%,配施秸秆效果好于配施猪粪有机肥.次降雨磷素平均流失负荷为0.01~0.26kg·hm~(-2),磷素平均流失负荷表现为PMPSPMDPSDPP0.减磷配施猪粪和秸秆有机肥对土壤磷素地表径流损失具有显著消减效应,但增加壤中流磷素淋失风险.
