Authors: Pravdyva L. A. , Honcharuk H. S. , Kulyk H. A.
Published: September 2023

Purpose. To investigate the effect of sowing dates of sorghum bicolor and soryz on growth, development and productivity in the conditions of the western part of the Forest Steppe of Ukraine.
Methods. The following methods were used in the experiments: field, laboratory and mathematical-statistical.
Results. It was established that, on average over the years of research, the plants of sorghum bicolor and soryz formed higher productivity when the sowing was carried out in the period from beginning to the middle of May, when the soil temperature at a depth of 10 cm exceeded 12°C. At the same time, field germination was 83.2% and 87.1% in sorghum bicolor variety ‘Dniprovskyi 39’, and 80.3% and 82.5 % in soryz variety ‘Samaran 6’. Sowing in late April reduced the field germination by 2.1–8.7 % on average in the experiment The vegetation period for early sowing period was the longest and amounted to 115 days in sorghum bicolor and 116 days in soryz; under optimal sowing conditions, it decreased from 2 to 8 days. The tillering of plants depended on the varietal characteristics and averaged 1.2–1.3 tillers per plant in sorghum bicolor and 1.2–1.4 tillers per plant in soryz. Plant height was 110–116 cm in sorghum bicolor variety ‘Dniprovskyi 39’ and 111–109 cm in soryz variety ‘Samaran 6’. Stem diameter ranged from 1.5 cm to 1.6 cm. The leaf area during the period of “panicle emergence-flowering” reached a maximum for the sowing in the beginning and middle of May and was 30.11 thousand m2/ha and 28.30 thousand m2/ha in sorghum bicolor ‘Dniprovskyi 39’, and 28.43 and 26.96 thousand m2/ha in soryz variety ‘Samaran 6’, respectively. Optimum sowing timing contributed to the formation of high crop productivity, specifically, the grain yield was 3.43 t/ha and 3.67 t/ha, biomass yield 31.83 t/ha and 33.77 t/ha, respectively in ‘Dniprovskyi 39’, and 3.5 and 3.7 t/ha, 29.5 and 37.83 t/ha, respectively, in ‘Samaran 6’.
Conclusions. It was found that germination energy and laboratory germination of seeds depended on variety, while field germination depended on sowing conditions, such as temperature and soil water content. It was foundd that the early sowing (in the late April) compared to the optimal time (early May and the middle of May) reduced grain yield of ‘Dniprovskyi 39’ variety by 10.1–14.8% and ‘Samaran 6’ by 17.1–21.6%; biomass by 21.9–26.5% and 12.4–31.7%, respectively. Biometric indicators of plant growth and development, as well as the net productivity of photosynthesis, were also higher for sowing seeds at optimal period. Therefore, sowing sorghum in the early and middle May is recommended for the western part of the Forest Steppe of Ukraine.
The yield of conditioned winter wheat seeds depending on the cultivation technology
Authors: Polishchuk V. V. , Konovalov D. V.
Published: September 2023

Purpose. To study of the impact of winter wheat seed cultivation technologies on the yield of conditioned seeds.
Methods. Laboratory, mathematical, and statistical.
Results. It was established that the 1000 kernel weight varied as affected by the varietal characteristics and the seed cultivation technology. Under the basic cultivation technology, the 1000 kernel weight of all varieties was significantly lower compared to other technologies. Along with the 1000 kernel weight, the fractional composition of seeds, which also affects the yield of conditioned seeds, is of great importance for the cultivation of seed material. The fractional composition of the seeds was affected both by a maturity group of the varieties and a cultivation technology. On average, over the years of research, the content of seeds of the large fraction (2.5–2.8 mm) of the varieties of the medium-early ripeness group was greater for all cultivation technologies due to a decrease in the number of small seeds (2.0–2.2 mm) and seeds of the medium fraction (2.2–2.5 mm) compared to medium-ripe varieties. The fractional composition of the seeds changed under the effect of the cultivation technology. The largest percentage of the large seed fraction (73.6–75.6%) and the smallest (4.4–5.6%) of the small fraction was obtained under an energy-rich technology with elements of biologization of the cultivation. The yield of conditioned seeds depended on varietal characteristics and the technology of its cultivation. On average, in the varieties of the medium-early ripening group, for the basic technology, it was 78%, for the energy-consuming technology it was higher by 8%, and for the energy-consuming technology with elements of biologization it was the highest and increased by 12%.
Conclusions. The 1000 kernel weight and the fractional composition of seeds is affected both by the varietal characteristics and the cultivation technology. These indicators were significantly higher under energy-consuming technology with the elements of biologization of cultivation, where a balanced complex of biologically active substances was applied for plant nutrition and protection.
Modelos de Ricochete
Authors: Pinto Neto Nelson
Published: September 2023

As recentes observações cosmológicas e astrofísicas indicam que o Universo está em expansão, com uma fase muito quente no passado, o que para muitos indica um início do Universo. Neste artigo, pretendo motivar e descrever modelos cosmológicos onde o Universo não teve um começo nem terá fim, contendo uma longa fase de contração seguida por um ricochete que o lança na fase de expansão observada atualmente. Por isso são chamados de Modelos de Ricochete. No contexto onde há infinitas fases de contração e expansão, com ricochetes entre elas, são também chamados de Modelos Cíclicos. Esse conjunto de modelos será motivado teoricamente, e confrontado com as mais recentes observações cosmológicas. Também será comparado com os modelos onde o Universo teve um começo sucedido por uma fase inflacionária, que será explicada em outros artigos deste número dos Cadernos de Astronomia.
Conceptual framework on the continuum of change in governance structures from the perspective of member control and the life cycle of agricultural cooperatives
Authors: Gimenes Régio Marcio Toesca , Souza Vanessa , Cavalheiro Rafael Todescato , Kremer Andréia Maria
Published: September 2023

Given the models of traditional, extended traditional, management, and corporate governance structures, this theoretical essay aims to present a conceptual framework that integrates the member control and life cycle perspectives of agricultural cooperative organizations. Starting from the continuum of changes, it is proposed that in phase 1 member control is total and is combined with the economic justification of the life cycle. In phase 2 the control is of quasi-integration and is combined with the organizational design stage of the life cycle. In phase 3 there is the separation of membership control and the life cycle goes through the stages of growth, glory, and heterogeneity. In phase 4 the control of the associates is delegated and combined with the stages of recognition and introspection. In phase 5, member control remains delegated and the life cycle reaches the stage of choice, eventually reaching the demutualization of the cooperative (phase 6).

Published: September 2023

The crab-eating fox (Cerdocyon thous) is a Neotropical canid with a generalist and opportunistic diet that includes a wide variety of food items. On this note, we report the first record of predation on Rhinella marina by Cerdocyon thous in the state of Rondonia, Brazil, based on camera trap footage. For the state of Rondonia, there is no study reporting the prey of C. thous. Therefore, this report approaches important ecological knowledge of the crab-eating fox, portraying behaviors and diet of the species.

Published: September 2023

Based on Legendre wavelets, a new efficient numerical integration method is proposed to estimate double integrals. This new method is expressed in terms of the operational integration matrices. Those which were introduced by Parsian, are calculated in an approximate way. In this work, we also propose the exact computation of these matrices. Better precision of the new method is observed during a comparative numerical study with the composite Simpson method.

First responders, mental health, dispatch coding, COVID-19: Crisis within a crisis
Authors: Hashmi Talha , Thomas Dominic , Nandan Monica
Published: September 2023

Community members experiencing mental health challenges often call 911. On one hand, mental health challenges among community members have grown exponentially during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. On the other hand, pressure on first responders has increased the complexity of emergency response due to the following reasons: responders not being trained in mental health, difficulties in properly identifying mental health calls, and discrepancies within police coding systems themselves. Consequently, mental health calls may not be addressed appropriately in a community. Understanding how first responders address 911 mental health crisis calls provides a foundation for improvement. A review of the literature illustrates the nature of responses from 911 to end disposition. The analysis highlights the challenges related to identifying mental health calls, matching appropriate responses, and targeting changes that could increase identification accuracy and speed. Based on the literature review, we are proposing a framework for training and research.

Computed tomographic abdominal fat volume estimation – a handy tool to predict the risk of metabolic syndrome
Authors: G.C Navaneeth , Hiremath Rudresh , Poojary Shweta Raviraj , Kini Divya Vishwanatha , Chittaragi Kavitha B.
Published: September 2023

Purpose

Abdominal obesity plays a significant role in the development of metabolic syndrome, with individual metabolic risk profiles for visceral and subcutaneous adipose tissues. This study aimed to calculate and correlate the subcutaneous, visceral, and total fat compartment volume in metabolic and non-metabolic syndrome patients.

Material and methods

This was a cross-sectional study conducted on 112 patients categorized into Group A (with metabolic syndrome) and Group B (without metabolic syndrome). They were subjected to computed tomography (CT) study of the abdomen using a 128-slice MDCT scanner. Body mass index (BMI), visceral fat volume (VFV), subcutaneous fat volume (SFV), and total fat volume (TFV) were calculated and correlated with biochemical evidence of metabolic syndrome.

Results

The mean age of patients in Group A was 60.91 ± 12.23 years as compared to Group B, which was 50.12 ± 16.30 years. Overall, a male predominance was observed, i.e. 69 cases (61.6%). BMI was proven to be an inaccurate risk predictor. However, mean VFV, SFV, and TFV was statistically higher in patients with metabolic syndrome (p = 0.001), with visceral fat volume predicting a higher risk in females (p = 0.026).

Conclusions

Abdominal CT is a commonly performed yet unexplored tool for the risk assessment of metabolic syndrome. Through the results obtained in this study, we have proven the need for calculating SFV, VFV, and TFV as predictors of metabolic syndrome in comparison to the conventional practice of BMI assessment. The radiologist can thus work with the clinician to effectively detect and treat this health condition.
Computed tomography evaluation of variations in positions and measurements of appendix in patients with non-appendicular symptoms: time to revise the diagnostic criteria for appendicitis
Authors: Singh Neha , Agrawal Prasant , Singh Deepak Kumar , Agrawal Gaurav Raj
Published: September 2023

Purpose

To estimate the frequency distribution of different anatomical positions, and to measure the diameter, wall thickness, and length of appendix in patients with non-appendicular symptoms.

Material and methods

This retrospective observational study was conducted among 1,575 patients, who had undergone computed tomography (CT) scan of abdomen for various non-appendicular signs and symptoms. Frequency of distribution of different anatomic locations and measurements of various morphologic parameters were recorded.

Results

The most common location of appendix was retrocecal, followed by sub-cecal, post-ileal, and pelvic locations. The mean length of appendix was 66.7 mm (range, 6.3-123 mm), and the diameter was 6.3 mm (range, 2.8-11.3 mm). Diameter of > 6 mm was noted in 48.12% patients. The mean wall thickness was 2.37 mm, ranging 1.2-4.2 mm. The most common intra-luminal content was air-mixed with hypodense or hyperdense material observed in 70.5% of cases.

Conclusions

Although an appendix with diameter less than 6 mm may be considered normal, a diameter above 6 mm has an overlap between a normal and inflamed appendix. Therefore, it should be considered in association with clinical and secondary findings to avoid overdiagnosis and unnecessary appendicectomies. We strongly recommend that diameter-based CT criteria to diagnose appendicitis should be revised and standardized.
Stories that Shape Spatialities
Authors: Salerno Daniele
Published: September 2023

This chapter offers an examination of the nexus between space and memory by exploring the concepts of lieu and milieu de mémoire. My aim is to show how, in memory-making processes, these two semiotic configurations are not mutually exclusive, as Pierre Nora argues, but mutually articulated. In the first part of the chapter, I will discuss Nora’s definitions, comparing them to Michel de Certeau’s articulation of lieu and espace and through the lens of Algirdas J. Greimas’s model of narrativity. In the second part, I will translate theoretical and methodological reflections into a practical analysis, specifically through an exploration of the case of the Italian concentration camp of Fossoli.
Interpretation and Use of Memory
Authors: Panico Mario
Published: September 2023

Every monument is designed with a specific meaning that seeks to define a system of values (institutional purposes, political reason, cultural self-celebration). In this chapter I will investigate how empirical users may choose either to conform to that ideological proposal or to reinvent it through multifaceted practices. Theoretically based on the ideas of the Model Reader and of interpretation and use as proposed by Umberto Eco, this essay proposes to consider the ways in which the ideal subject and the empirical subject can interpret and use the space differently. In particular through the analysis of two case studies related to the memory of Italy’s colonial past, I demonstrate how bottom-up protests and practices trigger a resemantisation and stratification of the space of monuments.
Uncomfortable Memories of Fascist Italy
Authors: Lorusso Anna Maria
Published: September 2023

This chapter reflects on an emblematic sculpture of one of the most controversial Italian memories, that of Fascism: the so-called statue of Bigio in Brescia, a symbol of Fascist values. In particular, I examine – within the framework of a critical analysis of ideological discourse – the public reactions and the negotiation of meaning which, after Fascism, involved the legitimacy of the monument, between the desire for cancellation and attempts at historicisation.
What Does Fascist Architecture Still Have to Tell Us?
Authors: Mazzucchelli Francesco
Published: September 2023

This chapter attempts to revisit some issues related to the recent debate on so-called ‘difficult heritage’ (Macdonald) from a semiotic perspective. More specifically, the symbolic weight of the monumental (especially architectural) material legacy of past totalitarian regimes is examined in terms of a temporal transformation of its ‘ideological voice’. According to this theoretical proposal, the material changes induced by restoration and rehabilitation works can be analysed as operations of ‘remodulation’ of the voice of monumental architectures, which can be framed by a semiotic theory of enunciation. Through the analysis of a series of case studies of Italian Fascist monumental buildings and their subsequent material transformation over time, a typology of different possible forms of remodulation is proposed.
Turning Spaces of Memory into Memoryscapes
Authors: Demaria Cristina
Published: September 2023

How might cinema turn a space into a mediated landscape of memory? How can it interrogate what is remembered in a lieu de memoire? Could the role of cinema be that of a monument or, even, a counter-monument? I address these questions through the semiotic analysis of the ways in which ESMA – Space for Memory and for the Promotion and Defence of Human Rights in Buenos Aires has been framed by two documentaries by Jonathan Perel: El Predio (2010) and Tabula Rasa (2013). Both films deal with the large, stratified trauma site of the former ESMA compound – the Escuela Superior de Mecánica de la Armada the most notorious clandestine centre of detention, torture and extermination that was operational in Argentina during the military regime.
Building a Continuously Integrating System with High Safety

Published: September 2023

In this paper, we propose and implement an internal continuous integration system, based on two opensource tools Jenkins and GitLab, taking into account the safety factor for servers in the system. In the proposed system, we use a combination of firewall function and reverse proxy function to protect Jenkins server itself and reduce the risk of this server against attacks on the CVE-2021-44228 security vulnerability, may exist in plugins of Jenkins. This system is highly practical, and it can be applied to immediately protect service servers when a vulnerability in it has been discovered but the corresponding patch has not been found or the condition to update the patch is not allowed yet.

Authors: Çil Ahmet Said
Published: September 2023

Aims: The aim of this study to investigate the effect of vaccines on pneumonia severity by comparing the computed tomography pneumonia scores of vaccinated and unvaccinated individuals with COVID-19 without known comorbidities.
Methods: Between January 2020 and January 2022. A total of 270 patients, 133 vaccinated and 137 unvaccinated, with positive polymerase chain reaction test and without any significant co-morbidity were included in the study. Computed tomography pneumonia scores, demographic characteristics, and vaccination information were evaluated through the hospital’s electronic registry system.
Results: Mean pneumonia scores of individuals vaccinated for 1 dose were higher than individuals vaccinated for 2 or more doses. The shortest duration of infection after vaccination was determined in the group with 1 dose of vaccine, and the longest in the group with 2 doses of vaccine. There was no significant difference between mean pneumonia scores of vaccinated and unvaccinated individuals (P > 0.05). Pneumonia scores were found to be significantly lower in individuals over 70 years of age in vaccinated compared to unvaccinated individuals. A statistically significant positive correlation was found between the age of the patients and the pneumonia scores (Rho = 0.293).
Conclusion: There is no significant difference in the pneumonia scores of vaccinated and unvaccinated Covid 19 pneumonia patients without comorbidities, except for patients over 70 years of age. There is a significant correlation between pneumonia score and age.

Thymoma is the most common tumor of the anterior mediastinum. Spontaneous regression of thymoma is extremely rare. A 34-year-old female patient without any known disease, admitted by a myasthenic crisis, had a mass of 76 x 53 x 88 mm on thorax computed tomography (CT). The patient received intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) treatment for 5 days, pyridostigmine 60 mg/8 hours and prednisone 30 mg/day for the treatment of myasthenic crisis. Thorax CT on the 18th day showed that the mediastinal mass regressed to 63 x 30 x 63 mm. Histopathological analysis after extended thymectomy revealed the diagnosis of type B2 thymoma.

Abstract. Studies assessing the achievability of future air quality goals in China have focused on the role of reducing China's domestic emissions, yet the influence of transboundary pollution of foreign origins has been largely underappreciated. Here, we assess the extent to which future changes in foreign transboundary pollution would affect the achievability of air quality goals in 2030 and 2060 for China. We find that in 2030, under the current-policy scenario in China, transboundary contributions to
population-weighted PM2.5 in China would be reduced by 29 % (1.2 µg m−3) as foreign countries transition from the fossil-fuel-intensive to the low-carbon pathway. By 2060, the difference would be increased to 45 % (1.8 µg m−3). Adopting the low-carbon instead of the fossil-fuel-intensive pathway in foreign countries would prevent 10 million Chinese people from being exposed to PM2.5 concentrations above China's ambient air quality standard (35 µg m−3) in 2030 and 5 million Chinese people from being exposed to PM2.5 concentrations above the World Health Organization air quality guideline (5 µg m−3) in 2060. Meanwhile, China adopting the carbon-neutral pathway rather than its current pathway would also be helpful
to reduce transboundary PM2.5 produced from the chemical interactions
between foreign-transported and locally emitted pollutants. In 2060,
adopting a low-carbon pathway in China and foreign countries coincidently
would prevent 63 % of transboundary pollution and 386 000 associated
premature deaths in China, relative to adopting a fossil-fuel-intensive
pathway in both regions. Thus, the influence of transboundary pollution
should be carefully considered when making future air quality expectations
and pollution mitigation strategies.

Abstract. We present an open-path mid-infrared dual-comb spectroscopy (DCS) system capable of precise measurement of the stable water isotopologues H216O and HD16O. This system ran in a remote configuration at a rural test site for 3.75 months with 60 % uptime and achieved a precision of < 2 ‰ on the normalized ratio of H216O and
HD16O (δD) in 1000 s. Here, we compare the δD
values from the DCS system to those from the National Ecological Observatory
Network (NEON) isotopologue point sensor network. Over the multi-month
campaign, the mean difference between the DCS δD values and the NEON δD values from a similar ecosystem is < 2 ‰ with a standard deviation of 18 ‰, which demonstrates the inherent accuracy of DCS measurements over a variety of atmospheric conditions. We observe time-varying diurnal profiles and seasonal trends that are mostly correlated between the sites on daily timescales. This observation motivates the development of denser ecological monitoring networks aimed at understanding regional- and synoptic-scale water transport. Precise and accurate open-path measurements using DCS provide new
capabilities for such networks.
Duration and ice thickness of a Late Holocene outlet glacier advance near Narsarsuaq, southern Greenland

Published: September 2023

Abstract. Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) outlet glaciers are currently losing mass, leading to sea level rise. Reconstructions of past outlet glacier behavior through the Holocene help us better understand how they respond to climate change. Kiattuut Sermiat, a southern Greenland outlet glacier near Narsarsuaq, is known to have experienced an unusually large Late Holocene
advance that culminated at ∼1600 cal yr BP and exceeded the
glacier's Little Ice Age extent. We report sedimentary records from two
lakes at slightly different elevations in an upland valley adjacent to
Kiattuut Sermiat. These reveal when the outlet glacier's surface elevation
was higher than during the Little Ice Age and constrain the associated
outlet glacier surface elevation. We use bulk sediment geochemistry,
magnetic susceptibility, color, texture, and the presence of aquatic plant
macrofossils to distinguish between till, glaciolacustrine sediments, and
organic lake sediments. Our 14C results above basal till recording
regional deglaciation skew slightly old due to a reservoir effect but are
generally consistent with regional deglaciation occurring ∼ 11 000 cal yr BP. Neoglacial advance of Kiattuut Sermiat is recorded by deposition of glaciolacustrine sediments in the lower-elevation lake, which we infer was subsumed by an ice-dammed lake that formed along the glacier's margin just after ∼ 3900 cal yr BP. This timing is consistent with several other glacial records in Greenland showing neoglacial cooling driving advance between ∼ 4500–3000 cal yr BP. Given that glaciolacustrine sediments were deposited only in the lower-elevation lake, combined with glacial geomorphological evidence in the valley containing these lakes, we estimate the former ice margin's elevation to have been ∼ 670 m a.s.l., compared with ∼ 420 m a.s.l. today. The ice-dammed lake persisted until the glacier surface fell below this elevation at ∼ 1600 cal yr BP. The retreat timing contrasts with overall evidence for cooling and glacier advance in the region at that time, so we infer that Kiattuut Sermiat's retreat may have resulted from reduced snowfall amounts and/or local glaciological complexity. High sensitivity to precipitation changes could also explain the relatively limited Little Ice Age advance of Kiattuut Sermiat compared with the earlier neoglacial advance.

Abstract. Canada’s forests play a critical role in the global carbon (C) cycle and are responding to unprecedented climate change as well as ongoing natural and anthropogenic disturbances. However, the representation of disturbance in boreal regions is limited in pre-existing land surface models (LSMs). Moreover, many LSMs do not explicitly represent subgrid-scale heterogeneity resulting from disturbance. To address these limitations, we implement harvest and wildfire forcings in the Canadian Land Surface Scheme Including Biogeochemical Cycles (CLASSIC) land surface model alongside dynamic tiling that represents subgrid-scale heterogeneity due to disturbance. The disturbances are captured using 30-m spatial resolution satellite data (Landsat) on an annual basis for 33 years. Using the pan-Canadian domain (i.e. all of Canada south of 76° N) as our study area for demonstration, we determine the model setup that optimally balances detailed process representation and computational efficiency. We then demonstrate the impacts of subgrid-scale heterogeneity relative to standard average individual-based representations of disturbance and explore the resultant model biases. Our results indicate that the modeling approach implemented can balance model complexity and computational cost to represent the impacts of subgrid-scale heterogeneity resulting from disturbance. Subgrid-scale heterogeneity is shown to have impacts 1.5 to 4 times the impact of disturbance alone on gross primary productivity, autotrophic respiration, and surface energy balance processes in our simulations. These impacts are a result of subgrid-scale heterogeneity slowing vegetation re-growth and affecting surface energy balance in recently disturbed, sparsely vegetated, and often snow-covered fractions of the land surface. Representing subgrid-scale heterogeneity is key to more accurately representing timber harvest, which preferentially impacts larger trees on higher quality and more accessible sites. Our results show how different discretization schemes can impact model biases resulting from the representation of disturbance. These insights, along with our implementation of dynamic tiling may apply to other tile-based LSMs. Ultimately our results enhance our understanding of, and ability to, represent disturbance within Canada to facilitate a comprehensive process-based assessment of Canada’s terrestrial C cycle.

Abstract. Carbon fluxes from agroecosystems contribute to the
variability of the carbon cycle and atmospheric [CO2]. This study is a
follow-up to Gahlot et al. (2020), which used the Integrated Science
Assessment Model (ISAM) to examine spring wheat production and its drivers.
In this study, we look at the carbon fluxes and their drivers. ISAM
was calibrated and validated against the crop phenology at the IARI wheat
experimental site in Gahlot et al. (2020). We extended the validation of
the
model on a regional scale by comparing modeled leaf area index (LAI) and yield against site-scale observations and regional datasets. Later, ISAM-simulated carbon
fluxes were validated against an experimental spring wheat site at IARI for
the growing season of 2013–2014. Additionally, we compared with the published
carbon flux data and found that ISAM captures the seasonality well.
Following that, regional-scale runs were performed. The results revealed
that fluxes vary significantly across regions, primarily owing to
differences in planting dates. During the study period, all fluxes showed
statistically significant increasing trends (p<0.1). Gross primary production (GPP), net primary production (NPP), autotrophic
respiration (Ra), and heterotrophic respiration
(Rh) increased at 1.272,
0.945, 0.579, 0.328, and 0.366 TgC yr−2, respectively. Numerical experiments
were conducted to investigate how natural forcings such as changing
temperature and [CO2] levels as well as agricultural management practices such
as
nitrogen fertilization and water availability could contribute to the
rising
trends. The experiments revealed that increasing [CO2], nitrogen
fertilization, and irrigation water contributed to increased carbon fluxes,
with nitrogen fertilization having the most significant effect.
