Spatiotemporal simulation of nitrogen non-point source pollution in Henan Province based on InVEST model
Journal Title: Journal of Henan Agricultural University - Year 2024, Vol 58, Issue 4
Abstract
[Objective] The objective of this study is to simulate nitrogen non-point source pollution in farmland, unraveling its spatio-temporal distribution characteristics and influencing factors. The ultimate aim is to enable efficient control of non-point source pollution and foster agricultural ecological protection. [Method] The research meticulously categorizes land use units in Henan Province, considering factors like agricultural zoning, terrain, planting patterns, cropping systems, and land cover. Leveraging the InVEST model, a temporal and spatial simulation of nitrogen non-point source pollution in farmland across Henan Province is conducted for the years 2000, 2010, and 2020. The analysis then extends to both output loads and influencing factors. [Result] The total nitrogen output load and nitrogen emission intensity in the majority of cities within Henan Province exhibited a consistent pattern, characterized by an initial increase followed by a subsequent decrease. Notable disparities were evident among different cities, with Nanyang, Xinyang, and Zhumadian identified as regions manifesting high nitrogen emission intensity. A significant correlation was established between nitrogen output intensity and several factors including average nitrogen application, digital elevation model (DEM), rainfall, proportion of farmland, and slope. Partial correlation analysis underscored a close association between nitrogen output intensity, nitrogen application per site, and rainfall. The outcomes of nitrogen emission intensity classification delineated specific medium and high-intensity emission zones within the cities of Nanyang, Xinyang, and Zhumadian. [Conclusion] The identification of regions with high emission intensity in farmland non-point source pollution within Henan Province, alongside the influential factors discovered, offers critical insights to enhance strategies for preventing and controlling nitrogen nonpoint source pollution in these areas.
