秸秆还田与施氮对褐土水稳性团聚体及有机碳和全氮分布的影响

Effects of straw returning and nitrogen application on water-stable aggregate and distribution of organic carbon and total nitrogen in brown soil

  • 摘要: 团聚体是土壤基本结构单元, 其结构组成直接影响土壤质量。团聚体的形成受农业管理措施和环境因素的影响, 导致其在不同区域不同土类上差异较大。褐土是河北省内主要土壤类型之一, 明确褐土长期小麦-玉米轮作对土壤团聚体形成的影响, 对于提升土壤质量、实现藏粮于地具有重要意义。本研究依托褐土区秸秆还田与施氮长期定位试验, 选择其中4个处理不施氮肥秸秆还田(CK)、传统施氮肥秸秆还田(CON)、优化施氮肥秸秆还田(OPT)和传统施氮肥秸秆移除(CON-S), 研究施氮和秸秆还田对褐土水稳性团聚体组成及各粒径水平土壤有机碳(SOC)和全氮(TN)含量的影响。通过湿筛法筛分土壤得到4种不同粒径团聚体, 检测不同团聚体中SOC和TN含量, 计算不同处理团聚体组成、稳定性及各级团聚体对SOC和TN的贡献率。研究结果表明: 碳酸钙是石灰性褐土团聚体形成的主要胶结物质, 秸秆还田显著促进土壤大团聚体形成, 提高团聚体稳定性, 但秸秆还田条件下施氮量对团聚体稳定性无显著影响。相同施氮条件下秸秆还田显著增加了土壤团聚体SOC含量, 秸秆还田条件下施氮显著增加了土壤团聚体SOC含量。施氮显著增加了各级团聚体TN含量, 相同施氮条件下秸秆还田显著增加了各级团聚体TN含量。团聚体SOC和TN含量均表现出随团聚体粒径减小而降低的趋势。与秸秆移除相比, 秸秆还田显著增加了>2 mm、0.25~2 mm团聚体SOC和TN的贡献率, 降低了0.053~0.25 mm和<0.053 mm团聚体贡献率, 但施氮量对团聚体SOC和TN贡献无显著影响。优化施肥与传统施肥相比团聚体组成及SOC和TN含量无显著差异。综上所述, 褐土区在秸秆还田措施下通过优化施氮可以提升土壤稳定性和肥力水平, 提高土壤质量。

     

    Abstract: Aggregates are the basic units of soil structure and are important factors affecting soil quality. Their formation is influenced by agricultural management practices and environmental conditions, leading to variation in structure across different regions and soil types. Brown soil is one of the main soil types in Hebei Province and understanding the influence of long-term wheat-maize rotation on the formation of soil aggregates is essential for improving soil quality and enhancing grain storage in the ground. This study was based on a long-term experiment involving straw return and nitrogen application in a brown soil region, aiming to determine their effects on the water stability and composition of soil aggregates, as well as the soil organic carbon (SOC) and total nitrogen (TN) content at different particle sizes. Four treatments—straw returning without nitrogen fertilizer (CK), traditional nitrogen fertilizer with straw returning (CON), optimized nitrogen fertilizer with straw returning (OPT) and traditional nitrogen fertilizer with straw removal (CON-S)—were selected to study the effects of nitrogen application and straw return on the water stability of brown soil aggregate composition and soil organic carbon (SOC) and total nitrogen (TN) content at different particle size levels. Four types of aggregates with different particle sizes were obtained using the wet-screening method. The SOC and TN contents within different aggregates sizes were measured, and the composition and stability of water-stable aggregates under different treatments were analyzed. Additionally, the contribution of each aggregate size class to overall SOC and TN content was calculated to evaluate their respective roles in nutrient distribution. The results showed that soil pH and calcium carbonate content were positively correlated with the stability of soil aggregates, which significantly promoted the formation of soil water-stable macroaggregates and improved the stability of water-stable aggregates; however, nitrogen application had no significant effect on the stability of water-stable aggregates under straw return. Under the same nitrogen application conditions, the SOC content of the soil aggregates was significantly increased by straw return, and the SOC content of the water-stable soil aggregates was significantly increased by nitrogen application. Nitrogen application significantly increased the TN content of aggregates at all levels, and straw return significantly increased the TN content of water-stable aggregates at all levels under the same nitrogen application conditions. The SOC and TN contents in the water-stable aggregates decreased with decreasing water-stable aggregate particle size. Compared with straw removal, straw return significantly increased the contribution rates of SOC and TN in water-stable aggregates >2 mm and 0.25−2 mm, while reducing their contribution in the 0.053−0.25 mm and < 0.053 mm fractions. However, nitrogen application had no significant effect on the SOC and TN contributions of the water-stable aggregates. There were no significant differences in the water-stable aggregate composition and SOC and TN contents between optimal and traditional fertilization treatments. In summary, in brown soil areas, soil stability and fertility can be improved by optimizing nitrogen application under straw return measures.
