... Recent studies have also shown that the interaction between soil moisture and soil texture can significantly influence the distribution and stability of soil aggregates. For example, Yang et al. [27] demonstrated that soil moisture content can alter the physicochemical properties of soil aggregates, thereby affecting their stability and distribution. Similarly, a study by Yang et al. [28] found that the combination of soil moisture and soil texture can influence the formation and stability of soil aggregates, highlighting the need to consider these factors in soil management practices. ...

... (1) To effectively address the issue of economic factors being the main drivers of water and ecological footprints and to curb decoupling, policy suggestions include strengthening the management and planning of water and ecological resources, promoting the development of water-saving technologies and water-saving industries, and optimizing the industrial structure and layout to reduce resource consumption and environmental pollution [19]. Simultaneously, it is necessary to enhance policy guidance and market mechanism construction, raise public awareness of water conservation and environmental protection, and actively draw on international experience and participate in global governance to jointly promote sustainable development and achieve a favorable decoupling between resource consumption and economic growth [20]. ...

... Drip irrigation systems can precisely control the flow rate and water application, reducing water loss and directly supplying moisture to plant roots, thereby improving water use efficiency [11]. However, when applying Yellow River water in drip irrigation, the sand particles and suspended matter in water easily cause emitter clogging, which in turn affects irrigation effectiveness and the proper functioning of the system [12]. Therefore, addressing the problems caused by sediment deposition and clogging in drip irrigation systems has become a critical technical challenge that needs to be overcome. ...

... Due to the direct association between blue and green water footprint and crop growth, research on the grey water footprint in agricultural water studies has been relatively limited. Currently, numerous researchers have extensively studied the water footprint of crop production across various spatial and temporal scales using different models [10][11][12][13]. ...

... The two words: "nexus" and "circular economy" (CE) are a current topic when it comes to sustainability and sustainable development [12][13][14][15]. The WEF nexus can be considered as an integrated managing outlook of essential natural resources [16][17][18], which was introduced as a framework to balance the three elements (i.e., food, water, and energy) through a comprehensive approach [19][20][21]. Specifically, in the context of the sea food industry, the WEF nexus is discussed by Entrena-Barbero et al. [22]. ...

... From a long-term perspective, subsurface drip irrigation presents a viable alternative to traditional surface irrigation methods [26]. Simultaneously, the development of cost-effective and easy-to-maintain drip irrigation systems is essential to support small-scale farmers [27]. Furthermore, due to the relatively high initial installation and operational costs (approximately 4713 USD ha −1 ), the adoption of subsurface drip irrigation technology in the North China region remains limited, accounting for less than 1% of the total irrigated area [28]. ...

... They highlighted the effectiveness of DNN models in simulating daily maize transpiration due to their competitive advantage in modeling the complex relationship between transpiration and its driving factors (Fan et al. 2021). Furthermore, several studies successfully simulated plant evapotranspiration using machine learning models (Du et al. 2024;Fan et al. 2021;Guo et al. 2024;Hailegnaw et al. 2024;He et al. 2024;Lee et al. 2024;Li et al. 2020;Wang et al. 2024). ...

... Bo et al. (2022) found that NCF reduced the global warming potential (GWP) of CH 4 and N 2 O by 47% while maintaining crop yield based on 636 field trials. Gao et al. (2024) conducted a meta-analysis based on 437 literatures to explore the effect of AWD on crop yield and GHG emissions, reporting that there was a slight decrease in crop yield (1.56%), a decrease in CH 4 emissions (47.47%), and an increase in N 2 O emissions (52.20%). Overall, the existing meta-analysis studies have primarily focused on individual or limited components of the GHG equivalent, such as crop yield, GHG emissions (including CH 4 and N 2 O), without comprehensive evaluations of all the aspects of NCF's GHG equivalent and its NCS benefits. ...

... In recent years, extensive research efforts have focused on greenhouse gas emissions from the planting industry at both the national and the global scales, examining areas such as carbon emission accounting methodologies and spatiotemporal dynamics [7,8], comprehensive analysis of driving factors [9,10], longitudinal trends in carbon emission evolution [11,12], and methodological applications of the Tapio decoupling model [13,14]. The scope of agricultural carbon emission accounting can be broadly divided into two primary dimensions: the input perspective, encompassing agricultural material inputs and land utilization practices [15][16][17], and the second dimension, which focuses on the production process, encompassing land utilization practices, methane (CH 4 ) emissions from rice paddies, and nitrous oxide (N 2 O) emissions from agricultural fields [18]. ...

... After all tests, all collected water sensitive paper were taken back to the laboratory and scanned one by one at high resolution (600 dpi) using a printer with an integrated scanner (Hewlett-Packard, Palo Alto, USA). The scanned water sensitive paper was then analyzed by using an open source image processing software ImagePy (Zhang et al., 2024), which can obtain data such as droplet coverage density (the number of water sensitive paper droplets per unit area), droplet deposition coverage (the ratio of the target surface area covered by droplets to the total target surface area) and droplet deposition amount (the deposition amount of droplet per unit area). ...
