Abstract:
This paper investigates how budget padding affects leadership credibility, accountability, and public policy making in Nigeria. Budget padding refers to the dishonest and illegal inclusion of extra or false figures in government budgets for personal or political benefit. This practice has become a growing concern in Nigeria’s public finance system, as it undermines good governance and delays national development. The paper used a qualitative research method and data were collected from secondary sources such as academic journals, government reports, newspaper articles, and official docum

Abstract:
It has long been recognized that padding of budgets is a concern that can complicate the practice of resource allocation. At the same time, experimental evidence suggests budget padding is somewhat restrained by a managerial preference for honesty. This paper models the confluence of these two incentives and considers the effect on optimal budgeting policies. In the model, budgetary transfers are established so as to reduce the manager's gain from padding which, in turn, forces the manager to think twice before seeking more funds. An effect of this optimal contract is that when facing a manage

To help constrain global and regional CH4 budgets, inverse (top-down) models incorporate data on the concentration and stable carbon (δ13C) and hydrogen (δ2H) isotopic ratios of atmospheric CH4. These models depend on accurate δ13C and δ2H end-member source signatures for each of the main emissions categories.

Methane is produced by various natural processes that directly or indirectly contribute to the entire Earth’s methane budget. If the Earth’s overall methane budget becomes imbalanced, CH4 has an impact on climate change. Wetlands, rice fields, animals, factories, and fossil fuels are major sources of methane emissions. Among all the resources, wetlands and rice fields are more prominent factors in methane emission, dependent on the water table, temperature, and vegetation.

Paddies are a potential source of anthropogenic nitrous oxide (N2O) emission. In paddies, both the soil and the rice plants emit N2O into the atmosphere. The rice plant in the paddy is considered to act as a channel between the soil and the atmosphere for N2O emission. However, recent studies suggest that plants can also produce N2O, while the mechanism of N2O formation in plants is unknown. Consequently, the rice plant is only regarded as a channel for N2O produced by soil microorganisms.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Saltwater intrusion and sea level rise (SWISLR) threaten coastal agroecosystems, yet their impact on the methanogenic food web in rice paddies remains virtually unknown. Using “double-RNA” metatranscriptomics (rRNA, mRNA), we investigated salinity effects on the methanogenic community in straw-amended slurries following different preincubation periods. Our results demonstrate that salt stress significantly inhibits methane (CH 4 ) production, with the degree of inhibition varying by the community’s successional stage. Salinity fundamentally shifted the methanogenic food web toward Clo

Abstract:
AbstractGaseous nitrogen (N) losses from nitrification and denitrification (NO + N2O + N2) pathways contribute a significant fraction of the total N losses from cropland ecosystems. The N mass balance and process‐based models are commonly applied to estimate the NO + N2O + N2 losses but have suffered from systematic error accumulations or model over‐parameterization, leading to a large uncertainty in estimation, hindering effective management of the global N budget. Here, we proposed a novel N isotope model, which considers fertilizer, ammonia volatilization and harvest after testing steady‐st

Abstract:
AbstractFlooded rice paddies are important for modifying land surface energy and water budgets, especially in Asian countries. This study incorporated shallow paddy water into the Noah with Multi‐Parameterization (Noah‐MP) model to enhance its performance in capturing the distinct features of small Bowen ratios over flooded rice fields. The paddy surface water was parameterized as one integrated layer along with the top soil layer, and meteorological measurements from two crop sites in Japan, that is, SAITO (early rice) and SAGA (late rice), were employed for model evaluation at the field scal
