Ground-penetrating radar (GPR) is one of the emerging technologies for soil moisture measurement. However, the measurement accuracy is difficult to determine due to some influence factors including radar wave frequency, soil texture type, etc. The GPR equipment with 1000 MHz center frequency and the measurement method of common midpoint (CMP) were adopted in the research to collect radar wave raw data in the selected field area under arid soil and moist soil conditions. The transmitter and receiver antennas of the GPR equipment were moved 0.01 m respectively in opposite directions on each radar wave raw data collection. Therefore, a CMP radar image consisted of 100 pieces of radar wave raw data by increasing the antenna distance from 0 m to 2 m. Each radar wave raw data indicated that the radar waves were reflected in the reflective layer with different dielectric constant under the same antenna distance. And the reflected and refracted radar waves were acquired by the receiving antenna at different two-way travel time respectively, and recorded in the computer. The collection of CMP soundings aimed to determine the inversion accuracy, optimum inversion depth, effective inversion depth and optimal inversion model of soil moisture content at different depth ranges and adjacent reflective layers by GPR at field scale. The reflected and refracted radar wave data were extracted from the raw data. The velocities of the surface waves and reflected waves were obtained respectively from the line slope of the surface wave data and the hyperbolic curves fitting of the reflected wave data. In addition, the relative dielectric constant of the soil at specified depth were deduced according to the soil dielectric constant and its reflected wave velocity. Moreover, 4 different models including Topp, Roth, Herkelrath and Ferre were used to figure out the soil volumetric water content inversion. Meanwhile, the measured data of soil volumetric moisture content obtained by oven drying method were used to verify the accuracy of the inversion results. The results showed that the effective inversion depth of 1000 MHz GPR ranged from 0 to 50 cm. The best inversion depth was 50 cm in arid soil and 40 cm in moist soil. The Roth model had the best correlation and stability with the highest R2 was 0.750, the Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) was 0.0114 m3/m3 and the lowest Relative Error (RE) was 3.0%. The GPR could possess the capacity of quick, precise and non-destructive measurement of specified depth soil moisture in field scale. The inversion model of soil moisture content needs to be calibrated according to different soil conditions.

Studies have not fully explained the underlying mechanism of spermidine-mediated heat tolerance. This study investigated the possible role of spermidine (Spd) in regulating citrus heat tolerance. The results showed that exogenous Spd effectively alleviated the limitation of high temperature (HT) on photosynthesis. Exogenous Spd increased the chlorophyll content, net photosynthetic rate, intercellular carbon dioxide concentration, stomatal conductance, maximum and effective quantum yield of PSII photochemistry, nonphotochemical quenching coefficient, and electron transport rate in citrus seedlings under HT stress, but declined the stomatal limitation value. In addition, Spd treatment promoted the dynamic balance of the citrus enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants system. Spd application significantly increased the activity of superoxide dismutase, peroxidase, catalase, ascorbic acid, and glutathione and the expression level of corresponding genes at high temperature, while reducing the content of H2O2 and malondialdehyde. Therefore, our findings suggested exogenous Spd significantly ameliorated citrus physiological and photosynthetic adaptation under HT stress, thereby providing helpful guidance for citrus cultivation in HT events.

High temperatures significantly injure the flowering, pollination, fruit growth, and quality of plants. Photosynthesis, the fundamental process supporting plant life, is crucial. Nevertheless, the quantitative evaluation of the physiological activity of the photosynthetic system of Nanfeng tangerine (NT) plants under high-temperature conditions remains a challenge. This research utilized NT plants, a distinctive citrus variety in Jiangxi Province, as the experimental subject. The study investigated the effects of varying degrees of high-temperature stress and duration on 16 photosynthetic physiological parameters of NT plants. The study examined the impact of four varying high-temperature treatment levels (32/22 °C, 35/25 °C, 38/28 °C, and 41/31 °C) for durations of 2, 4, 6, and 8 days, respectively. Principal component analysis was utilized to identify the key indicators of photosynthetic physiological activity in NT plants, with F
v /Fm , Pmax , LCP, H2 O2 , MDA, and POD being selected as key parameters. The high-temperature stress index model previously constructed was used to calculate the high-temperature stress index value of the NT plants exposed to varying degrees and durations of high temperature, in order to provide a comprehensive assessment of the photosynthetic system of NT plants under high-temperature stress. Subsequently, the high-temperature stress levels were categorized into five levels based on the calculated values: Level 0 for 0 < HSI ≤ 2, Level 1 for 2 < HSI ≤ 4, Level 2 for 4 < HSI ≤ 6, Level 3 for 6 < HSI ≤ 8, and Level 4 for HSI > 8. The research results provide valuable data for agricultural meteorological departments to carry out disaster risk zoning and risk assessment in the future. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

WINTER wheat ,WHEAT ,STATISTICS ,SPRING ,FIELD crops - Abstract
Spring frost is an extreme temperature event that poses a significant threat to winter wheat production and consequently jeopardizes food security. In the context of climate change, the accelerated phenology of winter wheat due to global warming advances the frost-sensitive stage, thereby escalating the risk of spring frost damage. Present techniques for monitoring and assessing frost damage heavily rely on meteorological data, controlled field experiments and crop model simulations, which cannot accurately depict the actual disaster situation for winter wheat. In this study, we propose a novel method that utilizes remote sensing index and statistical data to ascertain the spatial distribution of spring frost damage to winter wheat and evaluate the extent of damage. This method was employed to monitor and assess the spring frost damage event that occurred in Shandong province from 3 to 7 April 2018. The result shows that beginning on 3 April, the daily minimum temperature in western Shandong Province dropped significantly (decreased by 17.93 °C), accompanied by precipitation. The daily minimum temperature reached the lowest on 7 April (−1.48 °C). The growth of winter wheat began to be inhibited on 3 April 2018, and this process persisted until 13 April. Subsequently, the impact of spring frost damage on winter wheat ceased and growth gradually resumed. The affected area of winter wheat spanned 545,000 mu with an accuracy rate of 89.72%. Severely afflicted areas are mainly located in the cities of Jining, Zaozhuang, Dezhou, Heze, Liaocheng, Jinan and Tai'an in western Shandong province, and the yield reduction rates were 5.27~12.02%. Our monitoring results were consistent with the distribution of county-level winter wheat yield in 2018 in Shandong province, the daily minimum temperature distribution during spring frost and severely afflicted areas reported by the news. This method proves effective in delineating the spatial distribution of agricultural disasters and monitoring the extent of disaster damage. Furthermore, it can provide reliable information of disaster area and geospatial location for the agricultural department, thereby aiding in disaster damage assessment and post-disaster replanting.

- Abstract
In this study, we have investigated changes in precipitation extremes and the population's exposure to these extremes during 2091–2099 in China's Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei (JJJ) region relative to the historical period of 1991–1999. First, the regional climate model RegCM4, with a hydrostatic dynamic core, was run for east Asia, including China, at a 12 km resolution for 1990–1999 and 2090–2099. This model is forced by global climate model (GCM) MPI-ESM1.2-HR under the middle shared socioeconomic pathways (SSP245). The first year was used as a model spinup. Then, the 12 km results were used to force RegCM4 with a non-hydrostatic dynamic core (RegcM4-NH) at a 3 km convection-permitting scale over the JJJ region during the historical and future periods. Future precipitation extremes were predicted to increase over the whole of China and its four subregions, while decreases were predicted over the JJJ region. This may partly be caused by lower increases in specific humidity over the JJJ region. The percentage contributions of the three components of total population exposure, i.e., changes in exposure due to changes in the population, precipitation extremes and the joint impact of the population and extremes, were then analyzed. Changes in the population and wet extremes were closely related to changes in the total exposure over the JJJ region. The population is the dominant factor that most impacts the total exposure to dry extremes. Finally, changes in future population exposure to precipitation extremes per degree of warming were quantified for the JJJ region. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region (IMAR) has become the sixth-largest grain-producing province of China, contributing 5.6% of the total national grain output in 2021. Grain production increased by around 821% from 1980 to 2019. The contributions of structure adjustment, sown area, and yield to the increase in grain production was analyzed for IMAR. For yield, the Cobb–Douglas production function was estimated, to analyze the contribution of agricultural inputs (fertilizer, irrigation, seed, pesticide, agriculture film, and machinery operation) and the impact of natural hazards on yield. Results from our study showed that the grain production and yield in IMAR increased by 81.40 × 104 t and 0.11 t·ha−1 annually from 1980 to 2019. The grain-crop sown area increased by 73.65 × 103 ha annually, and the sown area of maize constitutes 16.82% to 55.30% of the total sown area of the IMAR in 1980–2019. In IMAR, sown area, yield, and structure adjustment can explain 54.06%, 33.31%, and 12.63% of the increase in the total grain production, respectively, from 1980 to 2019. The input per unit area of fertilizer, irrigation, and other inputs (seed, pesticide, agricultural film, and mechanical operation inputs) increased by 362.16%, 259.66%, and 405.55%, respectively, from 1981 to 2019, which contributed 160.44%, 15.06%, and 53.13% for the main cereal grain (maize and wheat) yield, respectively, while the decrease in the comprehensive loss rate from agrometeorological hazards contributed 7.76% to the main cereal grain yield in IMAR. Technologies such as water-saving irrigation, high-efficiency fertilizer application, and agrometeorological-hazards mitigation measures should be adopted in the future to increase production, considering the stable sown area and environmental and resource constraints.

China has a marked continental monsoon climate characterized by dry and wet hazards that have destructive impacts on grape yields and quality. The purpose of this study was to analyze the spatiotemporal characteristics of dryness/wetness in the wine regions of China and explore the links between these variations and large-scale climatic factors. The crop-specific standardized precipitation evapotranspiration index (SPEI) was used to characterize the dryness/wetness using meteorological data collected at 168 meteorological stations located in or near the wine regions from 1981–2015. Results showed that most wine regions of China experienced a wetting trend. The drought and wet event characteristics were region- and site-specific. The main wine regions of China (e.g., Xinjiang, Helan Mountain and Hexi Corridor) were characterized by relatively high drought severity; the extreme drought frequencies of the three regions were higher as well (11.5%, 3.3%, and 3.6%, respectively). Xinjiang was also characterized by a high wetness severity and an extremely high wetness frequency of 16%, but the wetness severity decreased over time. A 4–6-year periodical oscillation was commonly detected over the wine regions. The dryness/wetness characteristics were highly associated with the Southern Oscillation Index, Niño 3.4 and the Indian Ocean Dipole, with highest correlation coefficients of −0.40, 0.36 and 0.43 at lag times of 11, 8, and 11 months, respectively. The serious dry and wet events that occurred in 2001 and 1998, respectively, were speculated to be associated with anomalous atmospheric circulation patterns. These results can be used to inform grapevine stakeholders at various levels (e.g., farmer and industry) for developing strategies to mitigate and adapt dryness/wetness events in the wine regions of China. It is expected that the approach proposed in this study can also be applicable to wine regions of other countries. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

BACKGROUND: The influence of foliar nitrogen fertilizer during veraison (FNFV) on anthocyanin accumulation and chromatic characteristics of 'Cabernet Sauvignon' grapes over two seasons was investigated. RESULTS: Urea and phenylalanine fertilizers (TU and TP, respectively) and a control were sprayed three times at veraison. In 2018, TU displayed a significant enhancement in total individual anthocyanin content and a* and Cab* profiles. In 2019, FNAV significantly improved the content of total non‐acylated, acylated anthocyanin and total individual anthocyanin, and the profiles of L*, a* and Cab*, except a* in TU. The whole process from phenylalanine variation to anthocyanin accumulation in grape skins was analyzed. On the whole, after the first FNFV to harvest, the increase in phenylalanine metabolism, abscisic acid content, effects of PAL (Phenylalanine ammonia lyase), UFGT (UDP glucose‐flavonoid 3‐O‐glucosyltransferase) and transcript concentrations of VvPAL and VvUFGT involved in anthocyanin biosynthesis were also strong evidence explaining the increased anthocyanin and chromatic profiles in 2019. CONCLUSION: Overall, FNFV for nitrogen‐deficient grapevines could significantly improve grape color, especially in the 2019 veraison with a proper climate. © 2021 Society of Chemical Industry.

A field experiment was carried out to research the effect of soil temperature distribution on root water uptake in soil water simulation. Soil temperature distribution patterns under border irrigation and surface drip irrigation were researched. The root water uptake model was modified based on the effect of soil temperature on root water uptake. Results showed soil temperature profile distribution was greatly influenced by irrigation method. The range of temperature was larger under border irrigation, with the temperature being 3-6°C higher in 0-20 cm depth than in 20-100 cm depth. Except for the top layer under surface drip irrigation, mean soil temperature showed the trend of exponential decay throughout the soil profile. The relationship between temperature and water uptake rate was expressed in exponential function. With the modification of the root water uptake model as affected by temperature profile distribution, the value of the root mean square error between the simulated and observed soil water decreased from approximately 0.04 to 0.02 in the top layer under border irrigation, but showed no obvious difference under surface drip irrigation. When soil temperature differed greatly in the top layer from the deep layer, the root water uptake model considering soil temperature could improve the precision of soil water simulation. The results indicated that the modified root water uptake model could be used to simulate soil water dynamics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract: As an innovative tool, weather index agricultural insurance (WIAI) was introduced into China in 2008. Before product designing and selling to farmers, it is necessary to understand farmers’ real desire so that the product can be tailored to fit their needs. This paper focuses on the demand analysis for WIAI on household level. With this goal, 660 households located in 22 administrative villages in Changfeng and Huaiyuan county, Anhui province, China were surveyed. Survey questions covered risks faced by households, their coping mechanisms and willingness to pay for WIAI. Survey data were assessed and findings are shown as below: drought and flood were major weather risks for crops; the key coping strategies to crop loss were seeking employment elsewhere, or borrowing money from relatives or friends; most of investigated farmers showed interest in WIAI; those who were more familiar with insurance, or whose losses were higher due to deficient or excessive rainfall, or who had more trust in the accuracy of local weather forecasts, expressed more interest in WIAI with the quite low correlation coefficient, while statistically significant. It hints that there are potential demands for WIAI among farmers. However, methodologies deserve further development so as to provide more reliable assessment of the relationships between the willingness to pay and the abovementioned three factors.

- Abstract
As one of the most principal meteorological factors to affect global climate change and human sustainable development, temperature plays an important role in biogeochemical and hydrosphere cycle. To date, there are a wide range of temperature data sources and only a detailed understanding of the reliability of these datasets can help us carry out related research. In this study, the hourly and daily near-surface air temperature observations collected at national automatic weather stations (NAWS) in China were used to compare with the China Meteorological Administration (CMA) Land Data Assimilation System (CLDAS) and the Global Land Data Assimilation System (GLDAS), both of which were developed by using the advanced multi-source data fusion technology. Results are as follows. (1) The spatial and temporal variations of the near-surface air temperature agree well between CLDAS and GLDAS over major land of China, except that spatial details in high mountainous areas were not sufficiently displayed in GLDAS; (2) The near-surface air temperature of CLDAS were more significantly correlated with observations than that of GLDAS, but more caution is necessary when using the data in mountain areas as the accuracy of the datasets gradually decreases with increasing altitude; (3) CLDAS can better illustrate the distribution of areas of daily maximum above 35 °C and help to monitor high temperature weather. The main conclusion of this study is that CLDAS near-surface air temperature has a higher reliability in China, which is very important for the study of climate change and sustainable development in East Asia.

High-resolution meteorological data products are crucial for agrometeorological studies. Here, we study the accuracy of an important gridded dataset, the near-surface temperature dataset from the 5 km × 5 km resolution China dataset of meteorological forcing for land surface modeling (published by the Beijing Normal University). Using both the gridded dataset and the observed temperature data from 590 meteorological stations, we calculate nine universal meteorological indices (mean, maximum, and minimum temperatures of daily, monthly, and annual data) and five agricultural thermal indices (first frost day, last frost day, frost-free period, and ≥0 °C and ≥10 °C active accumulated temperature, i.e., AAT0 and AAT10) of the 11 temperature zones over mainland China. Then, for each meteorological index, we calculate the root mean square errors (RMSEs), correlation coefficient and climate trend rates of the two datasets. The results show that the RMSEs of these indices are usually lower in the north subtropical, mid-subtropical, south subtropical, marginal tropical and mid-tropical zones than in the plateau subfrigid, plateau temperate, and plateau subtropical mountains zones. Over mainland China, the AAT0, AAT10, and mean and maximum temperatures calculated from the gridded data show the same climate trends with those derived from the observed data, while the minimum temperature and its derivations (first frost day, last frost day, and frost-free period) show the opposite trends in many areas. Thus, the mean and maximum temperature data derived from the gridded dataset are applicable for studies in most parts of China, but caution should be taken when using the minimum temperature data.

Climate change impacts crop productivity as atmospheric conditions and water supply change, particularly in intensive cropping areas. This study used the validated AquaCrop Model, which was run with downscaled daily climate data produced by SDSM and CanESM2. The changes in the potential grain yield of winter wheat and summer maize and water budget during the cropping seasons were estimated for the Huang-Huai-Hai Plain (3H Plain) under RCP4.5 and RCP8.5 scenarios. The results show that the potential yield of winter wheat is increasing with similar spatial patterns in the 2030s, 2050s, and 2080s, with much of the increase is distributed in Shandong and northeastern parts of Henan. During the winter wheat growth period, the water budget deficit will likely improve from −210 mm in the 2030s to −202 mm in 2080s under RCP4.5 and from −206 mm in the 2030s to −191 mm in 2080s under RCP8.5 across the 3H Plain. The water budget during the winter wheat period will continue to be in deficit in the north 3H Plain and improvements are estimated mostly in the lower southern areas of the Plain. The summer maize potential yield is estimated to increase from the baseline period, but yields will decrease by 0.81%, 1.19%, and 2.10% in the 2030s, 2050s, and 2080s, respectively, under RCP8.5 compared to RCP4.5. During the summer maize growth period, the water budget is also estimated to improve from 109 mm in 2030s to 126 mm in 2080s under RCP4.5 and 107 mm in the 2030s to 163 mm in 2080s under RCP8.5. This increase is mainly estimated in the central and south of the 3H Plain. The estimated ET c of winter wheat shows no significant decrease, while the reduction of 6 mm and 13 mm for summer maize is observed under RCP4.5 and RCP8.5, respectively. The study provides scientific evidence to devise adaptation and mitigation climate change strategies for agricultural productivity and water resource management. • The potential winter wheat yield will increase under RCP4.5 and RCP8.5 scenarios. • The increase in wheat yield follows a similar spatial pattern under both RCP scenarios. • The potential summer maize yield will decrease under RCP8.5 as compared to RCP4.5. • Water deficit for wheat will remain similar to the present with increased temperature. • Water budget during summer will significantly improve in the latter half of this century.

Crop simulation models play an essential role in evaluating irrigation management strategies for improving agricultural water use in crop production. In this study, the AquaCrop model was used to calibrate and validate the grain yield and biomass of 11 cultivars (9 winter wheat and 2 summer maize) under full and water-saving irrigation practices. The model results were verified with the available data from the published literature. Under the full irrigation practice, widely used by farmers in the region for winter wheat, the Normalized Root Mean Square Error (NRMSE) was found to be between 2.00–9.90% for grain yield, 2.40–10.85% for biomass, and 0.42–19.61% for water productivity. Under water-saving irrigation for winter wheat, the NRMSE range was found to be between 5.80–16.00% for grain yield, 3.70–17.30% for biomass, and 3.80–13.79% for water productivity. For summer maize, the NRMSE was 5.95%, 6.08%, and 16.41% under full irrigation, and 9.51%, 8.41%, and 3.60% under water-saving irrigation for grain yield, biomass, and water productivity, respectively. For winter wheat and summer maize, the simulation accuracy of grain yield was high under full irrigation, with percent deviations under ± 11.00%. In this study, the simulation accuracy for winter wheat was low under water-saving irrigation, while the model simulated the yield and biomass for summer maize to acceptable accuracy. The model can be reliably used as a tool to simulate grain yield and biomass across the NCP region for winter wheat and summer maize. However, the limitations of the model must be considered when simulating winter wheat under water-stressed conditions. • AquaCrop is a crop growth model to simulate yield response to water. • The model simulation accuracy was high under full irrigation for wheat and maize. • For water-saving irrigation, model accuracy was high for maize compared to wheat. • The model can be reliably used as a tool to simulate yield and biomass across NCP.

• Effects of RDI on anthocyanin biosynthesis in wine grapes was investigated. • RDI1 treatment increased anthocyanin content most effectively. • Revealing the changes of genes and substances under RDI by Omics. • Mapping the effects of anthocyanin biosynthetic pathway under RDI. Regulated deficit irrigation (RDI) is a new type of water-saving irrigation technology developed in recent years which was well suited to arid and semi-arid grape plant areas. The anthocyanin synthesis of grapes under RDI was revealed through omics in this study. RDI slightly decreased the hundred-grain weight and increased the soluble solid content, juice pH, reducing sugar content, and total anthocyanin content. Meanwhile, the total acid content decreased before ripening. Transcriptomics and metabolomics analyses revealed that large numbers of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and significantly changed metabolites (SCMs) were filtered in the RDI groups. RDI1 with 30% ETc upregulated 7 related gene expression levels in the anthocyanin biosynthetic pathway and also increased some metabolites contents. Eventually, the contents of most monomeric anthocyanins in the RDI groups were increased, and the proportion of Mv increased in the ripe grapes of the RDI groups. In all, RDI is a useful water-saving irrigation method which could also increase anthocyanin content in grapes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
