Abstract
The denitrification process in aquaculture systems plays a crucial role in nitrogen (N) cycle and N budget estimation. Reliable models are needed to rapidly quantify denitrification rates and assess nitrogen losses. This study conducted a comparative analysis of denitrification rates in fish, crabs, and natural ponds in the Taihu region from March to November 2021, covering a complete aquaculture cycle. The results revealed that aquaculture ponds exhibited higher denitrification rates compared to natural ponds. Key variables influencing denitrification rates were Nitrate nitrogen (NO3--N), Suspended particles (SPS), and chlorophyll a (Chla). There was a significant positive correlation between SPS concentration and denitrification rates. However, we observed that the denitrification rate initially rose with increasing Chla concentration, followed by a subsequent decline. To develop parsimonious models for denitrification rates in aquaculture ponds, we constructed five different statistical models to predict denitrification rates, among which the improved quadratic polynomial regression model (SQPR) that incorporated the three key parameters accounted for 80.7% of the variability in denitrification rates. Additionally, a remote sensing model (RSM) utilizing SPS and Chla explained 43.8% of the variability. The RSM model is particularly valuable for rapid estimation in large regions where remote sensing data are the only available source. This study enhances the understanding of denitrification processes in aquaculture systems, introduces a new model for estimating denitrification in aquaculture ponds, and offers valuable insights for environmental management.

- Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
- We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
- We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
- The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
- Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
