Popis: | Methane is one of the most important greenhouse gases and is emitted from waterlogged rice regions. Eddy covariance was used to obtain long-term (2017–2018), high-frequency data for the CH4 flux at typical rice paddy fields in Sanjiang Plain and Liaohe Plain. This study examines the CH4 emission process, emission characteristics at different time scales and the intensity of different emission sources. The relationships between CH4 emissions and temperature and photosynthetically active radiation were also analysed. CH4 emissions from Sanjiang Plain and Liaohe Plain in 2017 were 26.77 and 16.17 g CH4 m−2year−1, respectively. The CH4 fluxes in 2017 and 2018 were similar; emissions were higher at the Sanjiang site in 2018. Peak CH4 emissions (daily average: 0.127 μmol CH4 m−2s−1) corresponded to the tillering stage in Sanjiang Plain. CH4 emissions peaks corresponding to the jointing–heading and mature stages at Liaohe Plain. Monthly CH4 emissions were highest in July. The daily averaged flux was 0.065 μmol CH4 m−2s−1 during the growing season. The field-transplanting stage exhibited the highest CH4 emissions. No CH4 was emitted during the greening–tillering stages. Emissions increased again during the jointing–heading stages to 0.102 μmol CH4 m−2 s−1, and then decreased gradually. A significant linear correlation was observed between PAR and the methane flux in Liaohe Plain. CH4 emissions in Sanjiang Plain were more sensitive to changes in temperature. The temperature coefficient value was highest from the sowing period to the green period. The CH4 flux at Sanjiang Plain depended on the stage of rice growth, the temperature, the degree of irrigation and drainage, and the soil pH. In November (during the non-growing season) at Liaohe Plain, a slight negative flux (a weak CH4 sink) was observed. CH4 emissions were also found to be inhibited in the growing season by increased soil alkalinity. |
