Effect of DMPP on Inorganic Nitrogen Transformation and Leaching in Vertical Flow of Simulated Soil Column
DMPP对氮素垂直迁移转化及淋溶损失的影响

Using a multi-layer soil column device, the effect of new nitrification inhibitor DMPP (3,4-dimethyl pyrazole phosphate) on nitrogen leaching was studied for understanding the nitrogen vertical transformation and lowering the nitrogen leaching losses. The results indicate that, within 60 days of experiment, the regular urea added with 1% of DMPP can effectively inhibit the ammonium oxidation in the soil, and improve the concentration of NH+4-N in soil solution over the 20 cm tilth profile, while decline the concentrations of NO-3-N and NO-2-N. No obvious difference is found on NH+4-N concentrations collected from deep layer soil solution under 20 cm between regular urea and the urea added with 1% of DMPP. There is also no significant difference for the NH+4-N and NO-3-N in the soil solution of deep layer under 40 cm among the treatments of urea by adding with 1% of DMPP within 60 days. So DMPP could be used as an effective nitrification inhibitor to control ammonium oxidation, decline the nitrate leaching losses, minimize the underground water pollution risk and be beneficial for the ecological environment.
