      Soil Microorganism Recovery.

AB  - During soil fumigation, it is ideal to mitigate soil fumigant emissions, ensure 
      pest control efficacy, and speed up the recovery of the soil microorganism 
      population established postapplication. However, no current fumigant emission 
      reduction strategy can meet all these requirements. In the present study, 
      replicated soil columns were used to study the effect of biochar derived from 
      rice husk (BR) and green waste (BG) applied to the soil surface on 
      1,3-dichloropropene (1,3-D) and chloropicrin (CP) emissions and soil gas 
      distribution, and on microorganism population re-establishment. Relative to 
      fumigated bare soil (no emission reduction strategy), high-density polyethylene 
      (HDPE), and ammonium thiosulfate (ATS) treatments, BR gave dramatic emission 
      reductions for both fumigants with no obvious emission peak, whereas BG was very 
      effective only for 1,3-D. With BR application, the concentration of fumigant in 
      the soil gas was higher than in the bare soil and ATS treatment. After the soil 
      column experiment, mixing the BR with the fumigated soil resulted in higher soil 
      respiration rates than were observed for HDPE and ATS treatments. Therefore, 
      biochar amendment to the soil surface may be an effective strategy for fumigant 
      emission reduction and the recovery of soil microorganism populations established 
      postapplication.
