    In order to reveal the seasonal freeze-thaw effect of land cover on temporal and spatial variation of soil temperature,this paper sets up three treatments,including the bare land ( LD) ,straw mulching ( JG) and plastic film mulching ( DM) ,and the change of soil temperature in different depth of freezing thawing process is analyzed by means of mathematical statistics and grey correlation degree. The results show that: the effect of plastic film mulching on soil temperature is significant; the effect of straw mulching on soil temperature is different at different stages. At freezing stage,straw mulching reduces soil loss of heat and has a warming effect on the soil; at melting stage, straw mulch reduces the heat exchange between the ground and atmosphere and inhibites the increase of soil temperature. Plastic film mulching and straw mulching can stabilize the soil temperature changes. Throughout the freezing -thawing period,both the two kinds of mulching have impact on soil temperature,the treatment of 0 ~ 20 cm has a great effect on soil temperature,while for the treatment of 20 ~ 90 cm,the soil temperature increase with the increase of soil depth and the fluctuation of soil temperature decreases gradually. The research results provide the basis for the selection of the surface coverage measures in seasonal frozen soil area.

    Jingyuan county of Gansu province was selected as a research object. Based on the observation data of soil moisture,temperature and precipitation in crop growing season from 1981 to 2000 in agricultural meteorological stations,statistical analysis methods,Mann-Kendall method and Least square method were applied to analyze the data of the surface soil ( 0 ~ 50 cm) ,the spatial and temporal variations of soil moisture and the response of different crops soil moisture to climate change are studied. The results showed that the surface soil moisture change rule in each layer was basically consistent to the same crop types; however,the soil moisture change in each layer was greatly different for different crop types; the multi-years average soil humidity in different depth has a certain relation with the planting of crops type; therein,the soil moisture change process of spring wheat was convex type with the change characteristic of low to high to low from top to bottom; while the soil moisture variation of spring corn was concave type with the change characteristic of high to low to high from top to bottom. The relationship between air temperature and soil moisture was different due to different planting crop types and soil depth. The relationship between precipitation and soil moisture has nothing to do with planting crop types and soil depth,but the relationship have certain otherness for the types of crops and the sensitivity of soil depth. While the relationship between soil moisture and runoff has opposite characteristic for different crop types.

    In order to explore the relationship between soil water repellency and moisture content,change rules of sand water repellency under different moisture content was studied through indoor test by using the water drop penetration time method,and the theory analysis of contact angle change was conducted based on the ideal soil particle model. The results showed that: with the increase of water content,the sand water repellency showed a single peak curve trend of first increase and then decrease with 1.5% ~ 2% moisture content as the turning point; the higher the intensity of sand water repellency,the bigger the peak value of WDPT,the smaller corresponding moisture content value,and the lower the threshold moisture content of water repellency. There are differences between water drop penetration time method and contact angle method for soil water repellency,and the essence is that the two methods evaluate the water repellency from two different aspects,namely the permanence of water repellency and the strength of water repellency. The above results can lay a foundation for the research of water repellent soil.

    Fluent software was used to simulate the internal flow field of the automatic screen filter by porous jump model and Realizable k-ε model. The difference of pressure drop between the inlet and outlet of the numerical simulation and the physical experiment is 6.77%, which indicates that the numerical simulation is accurate. After analyzing the filter internal flow field, found that main part of the pressure drop is filter screen. Some vortex zones in the outlet pipe, distribution of velocity and pressure are uneven, keep the filter area unchanged, respectively to simulate the flow field of the filters when the outlet pipe and tank angle is 75 °, 60 °, 45 °, 30 °. the results showed that:?α?has a greater influence on the flow field of outlet pipe, but has little effect on other area as well as the pressure drop between the inlet and outlet. With the decrease of the angle α?, the upper outlet pipe, distribution of velocity and pressure are more uniform; The vortex on the left of the outlet pipe disappear gradually, but the vortex on the right of the outlet pipe increase gradually. The angle between the outlet pipe and tank is not the main reason affect the main reason for the flow field, so structural optimization should carried out from the filter screen.

Due to the large water demand of tea plants during growth period, determines the reasonable irrigation water quota of tea plants is very necessary. On the basis of Penman-Monteith equation, drawing lessons from the calculation method of modified P-M equation in greenhouse, and we were proposed the calculation model of tea plantsevapotranspiration in greenhouse based on conventional meteorological data and growth index. The tea plants evapotranspiration in greenhouse was calculated and analyzed by using modified P-M equation and ET0(Tea) (March 10 to April 10, 2016). The model is verified by the principle of water balance. Our results showed that the simulation results of these parameters and computed results are respectively approximate and they have the same varying trend. And the ET0(Tea) has better performance on sunny day than on cloudy day. This algorithm has theoretical correctness and feasibility in practice. Therefore, the calculation model can be used as a decision making basis for tea plants irrigation in greenhouse in northern China.

    Aiming to give suggestions and supports for choosing appropriate micro-irrigation methods for Lycium barbarbum L. cultivation in Zhongning area of Ningxia from modern water -saving micro -irrigation methods,a field experiment including 4 micro -irrigation methods, namely surface drip irrigation,surge irrigation,subsurface irrigation and cantilever drip irrigation,was carried out to evaluate the effects of different micro-irrigation methods on the distribution of water and nutrient in the trial soil and the yield of Lycium barbarbum L.. The results showed that: under the same water amount,soil water under surge irrigation had much more potential on lateral movement with an increase of soil water content of 8.82% compared with initial value,which significantly contributed for the highest average soil water content( SWC) of 14.49% in the whole soil profile,compared with the other 3 micro-irrigation methods. However,there was no significant difference of the average SWC,the soil water distribution and the SWC increment between surface drip irrigation,subsurface drip irrigation and cantilever drip irrigation. Furthermore,surge irrigation and cantilever drip irrigation methods had much more effect on nutrients transportation and leaching intensity in root zone than surface drip irrigation and subsurface irrigation methods. Nevertheless,subsurface irrigation and cantilever drip irrigation methods could likely cause nutrients accumulation in no-root zone to some extent. What’s more,Lycium barbarbum L. under surface drip irrigation and surge irrigation methods got better growth index and more yield than the other two methods. As a result,the best growth index and the highest yield of Lycium barbarbum L. were obtained under surface drip irrigation,which attributed to better water-fertilizer coupling. So,surface drip irrigation can be preferred irrigation methods for Lycium barbarbum L. in Zhongning area of NingXia.

    Various maize varieties have different drought resistance capacity. Therefore,using a constant irrigation scheduling for different maize varieties will result in a decline of irrigation water use efficiency. In this study,a field experiment was carried out in Yellow river district in 2013 to study the response of 6 staple maize varieties to different irrigation regimes,including irrigation after sowing,irrigation after sowing and at jointing stage,irrigation after sowing and at jointing and filling stage,under adequate rainfall condition. The results showed that the major water consumption layers were distributed at 20~ 40 cm soil depths at filling stage; the ZD909 type consumed the greatest amount of soil water ( 434 mm) ,followed by DH605 type ( 411 mm) ,and the ZD958 type ( 352 mm) was the smallest one; XY335 type and ZD 958 type had the highest water use efficiency of 28 kg/( hm2 ·mm) ,followed by DH605 type and XD20 type,while the ZD909 type had the smallest water use efficiency of 23 kg/( hm2 ·mm) ; the grain yield of DH605 type and XY335 type was increased by 13.0% and 14.2%, respectively,due to the application of irrigation at filling stage,compared to that of no irrigation application treatment; however,supplemental water irrigated at filling stage exerted no significant effect on grain yield increase for ZD958 type and XD20 type. So it can be inferred that under adequate rainfall amount in Yellow river district,a high grain yield can be obtained for DH605 and XY335 with irrigation after sowing stage and at filling stage,while a single irrigation after sowing stage may be enough for ZD958 and XD20 to successfully complete its life cycle.

The effects of different structures on the critical pressure characteristics were investigated. The factors affecting the critical pressure of the mixing chamber were analyzed. Experimental results show that the critical pressure ratio is only related to the structure of the nozzle. The critical pressure ratio increases with the increase of area ratio. The smaller outlet diameter, the greater the critical pressure ratio. Influence of ventilation mode on critical pressure ratio is very low. Added a vortex core, critical pressure ratio increases. The convergence angle has little effect on the critical pressure ratio. The variation rule of critical pressure ratio in the critical condition of different structure effervescent nozzle is determined, which provides the basis for the design and safe and reliable operation of the effervescent atomizer.
