Table 2. Regression models of carbon and nitrogen lost from wheat straw.
Treatments | Carbon lost / Ct = C0(1−e-kCt) | Nitrogen lost / Nt = N0(1−e-kNt) | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
C0 | kC | R2 | N0 | kN | R2 | |
Aerobic condition | 2.15 | 0.0152 | 0.99 | 26.4 | 0.02 | 0.995 |
Anaerobic condition | 2.31 | 0.0085 | 0.95 | 27.7 | 0.012 | 0.993 |
Note: Ct is organic carbon lost from wheat straw at time t (g); C0 is the initial potentially mineralizable carbon (g); kc is the carbon decomposition rate constant (d-1); R2 is the correlation coefficient; Nt is nitrogen lost at time t (mg); N0 is the initial potentially mineralizable nitrogen (mg); kN is the nitrogen decomposition rate constant calculated (d-1); R2 is the correlation coefficient.
