introduction land use change and its effects on soils is one of the important factors that decrease soil quality. nowadays because of rapid growth of population, vast forest areas are changed into agricultural lands but chemical properties of the soils are commonly affected by changes in land usage.  converting the forest areas into agricultural lands is one of the prevalent issues in iran, esp...

As farmland systems vary over space and time (season and year), accurate and updated maps of paddy rice are needed for studies of food security and environmental problems. We selected a wheat-rice double-cropped area from fragmented landscapes along the rural-urban complex (Jiangsu Province, China) and explored the potential utility of integrating time series optical images (Landsat-8, MODIS) a...

The current knowledge regarding the effect of global climate change on rice-paddy methane (CH4) emissions is incomplete, partly because information is limited concerning the mechanism of the microbial response to elevated ground-level ozone (O3). A field experiment was conducted in the China Ozone Free-Air Concentration Enrichment facility in a rice-wheat rotation system to investigate the resp...

Rising temperatures and elevated atmospheric CO2 are two factors that simultaneously affect the dynamics of soil organic carbon (SOC). This study separately examines the effects arise from these two factors in Tai-Lake Paddy soils using DeNitrification–DeComposition (DNDC) model, with the currently most detailed soil database for the paddy region of China. The soil database is at a scale of 1:5...

A field survey was conducted to investigate the heavy metal contamination of paddy soils in Xiangyin County, China. The total concentration of Cd, Pb, Zn, Cu, Cr and Ni in paddy soil was measured, and the environmental quality of paddy soil was assessed using pollution index methods. Paddy soils were slightly polluted with the content of Cd exceeding the standard value. The moderately polluted ...

This study aims to determine the factors that influence production of paddy rice farming in village Mogoyunggung Satu, Dumoga Timur District, Bolaang Mongondow Regency. research was conducted from October December 2021. The method used this is quantitative descriptive analysis. types and sources data were primary secondary data. sampling simple random method. analyzed using Cobb Douglas model r...
