黄河口潮间盐沼湿地生长季净生态系统CO2交换特征及其影响因素

潮间盐沼湿地生物地球化学过程独特,生态系统CO2交换存在着极大的复杂性和不确定性。利用2012年黄河口潮间盐沼湿地生态系统生长季(4—10月)连续的涡度相关观测数据,分析了潮间盐沼湿地的净生态系统CO2交换(NEE)、总初级生产力(GPP)和生态系统呼吸(Reco)的变化特征及其影响因素。结果表明:生长季,生态系统NEE具有明显的日变化和季节变化。日尺度上,表现为白天CO2净吸收,夜间CO2净释放,NEE日平均值为-0.38 g CO2m-2d-1;月尺度上,平均气温最高的7月生态系统释放CO2最多(15.16 g C/m2),6月生态系统吸收CO2最多(25.07 g C/m2)。潮间盐沼湿地生态系统的CO2交换受到光合有效辐射(PAR)、土壤温度(Ts)、土壤含水量(SWC)和潮汐淹水的共同影响。白天NEE主要受控于PAR,且生态系统表观初始光能利用率(α)和最大光合速率(NEEsat)分别在6月和5月达到最大值,分别为(0.0086±0.0019)μmol CO2μmol-1光子和(4.79±1.52)μmol CO2m-2s-1。夜间NEE随Ts呈指数增加趋势,生态系统呼吸的温度敏感性(Q10)为1.33,且SWC越高,Q10值越大。研究典型晴天(6月19日—6月25日)表明,潮汐淹水增强了生态系统白天对CO2的吸收,同时也增强了夜间CO2释放,研究时段内,潮汐淹水使生态系统净CO2吸收增加了0.76 g CO2m-2d-1。整个生长季,黄河口潮间盐沼湿地生态系统表现为CO2的汇,NEE为-22.28 g C/m2(其中,吸收118.34 g C/m2,释放96.28 g C/m2)。研究结果利于对潮间盐沼湿地源汇功能和影响机制的进一步认识与研究。     

黄河小浪底人工混交林冠层CO2储存通量变化特征

基于黄河小浪底人工混交林2008年的CO2浓度和碳通量数据,分析了不同天气条件下CO2浓度在时间和空间上的变化特征,对比了CO2浓度廓线法和涡度相关法估算的CO2储存通量,研究了CO2储存通量的日、季变化特征。结果表明:人工混交林冠层上方月平均CO2浓度具有明显的季节变化规律。月平均CO2浓度最大值出现在3月(370μmol/mol),最低值出现在8月(347μmol/mol)。涡度相关法估算的CO2储存通量比廓线法所得结果偏低9%。生长季,冠层CO2储存通量和净生态系统碳交换量(NEE)日平均值分别为-0.0004和-0.091 mg CO2m-2s-1,冠层CO2储存通量在NEE中仅占0.4%。2008年CO2储存通量和NEE分别为-46.1、-1133 g CO2m-2a-1。在年尺度上,CO2储存通量占NEE的4.1%。因此,在日和年尺度上计算黄河小浪底人工混交林NEE时,CO2储存通量可以忽略。     

珠三角城市绿地CO2通量的环境响应特征

城市绿地的净生态系统CO2交换量(NEE)受多种环境因素控制,定量分析NEE的环境响应机制对评估绿地生态系统固碳效益、优化城市绿地布局有重要意义。本文应用2009、2010年位于东莞市植物园内的涡度相关CO2通量定位观测资料,分析了光合有效辐射(PAR)、土壤温度(Ts)、饱和水汽压差(VPD)、降水及周边不同下垫面类型对NEE的影响。结果表明:NEE绝对值随PAR的升高而增加,PAR超过光饱和点(约为1500μmol photons·m-2·s-1)后,NEE绝对值呈回落趋势;生态系统呼吸(Reco)随Ts升高而增加,在温度较低时,Reco对Ts的敏感性较强(10℃时,Lloyd-Taylor方程的Q10=1.8),随着温度升高,敏感性下降(30℃时,Q10=1.43);VPD通过影响植物气孔导度对CO2交换产生作用,相同温度下,随着VPD升高,气孔导度增大,呼吸释放与光合固定的CO2量均增加;降水能增加土壤湿度进而使Reco增大,25℃时,降水后的Reco比降水前增加15.8%;测站东北和西南方的绿地范围较大,当东北和西南部是主要贡献区时,NEE绝对值较大,表明增加城市绿地能有效提高城市固碳效益。     

黄土高原围封与自然放牧草地碳交换特征

用静态箱法于2012年3月~2013年2月对黄土高原自然放牧及其围封6年的草地土壤呼吸和净生态系统CO2交换速率进行为期1年的实地观测。结果表明:(1)围封和自然放牧草地全年的碳交换总量均表现为碳汇,即CO2净吸收;围封草地全年净生态系统碳交换量为(-58.0±14.5)g·m-2,其中生长季和非生长季交换量分别为(-70.3±11.4)g·m-2和(12.4±3.1)g·m-2;自然放牧草地生态系统全年碳交换量为(-48.7±14.0)g·m-2,其中生长季和非生长季交换量分别为(-56.9±10.6)g·m-2和(8.1±3.3)g·m-2。(2)草地净生态系统CO2交换速率生长季主要受土壤含水量的控制,而在非生长季则主要受土壤温度的控制;草地土壤呼吸速率主要受土壤温度和土壤含水量共同影响,其中在生长季受土壤含水量的影响作用更大,而在非生长季则受土壤温度的影响作用更大。(3)土壤有机质含量的差异是造成围封草地土壤呼吸速率大于自然放牧草地的主要原因。(4)研究区草地存在土壤呼吸负通量现象,样地灰钙土偏高的碱性条件(pH8.2)促进了土壤次生碳酸盐的淀积可能是造成这一现象的主要原因。     

铁杆蒿灌丛对黄土高原草地碳交换特征的影响

用静态箱法于2012年生长季(5~10月)对黄土高原围封草地常见半灌木铁杆蒿(Artemisia gmelinii)灌丛内外土壤呼吸速率和净生态系统CO2交换速率及其主要环境因子进行实地观测,并对草地土壤基本理化性质进行分析,以揭示铁杆蒿灌丛内外碳交换变化规律及其影响因素。结果显示:(1)铁杆蒿灌丛内的土壤呼吸和净生态系统CO2交换的日交换速率均显著高于灌丛外;灌丛内外土壤呼吸速率和净生态系统CO2交换速率的峰值出现时间一致,且灌丛内显著高于灌丛外;土壤呼吸速率的峰值出现在8月份,净生态系统CO2交换速率的峰值出现在9月份。(2)灌丛内外土壤呼吸速率日动态均呈"单峰型"变化趋势,生长季平均值都接近5月份观测值,分别为(5.49±0.18)和(2.93±0.04)g·m-2·d-1;灌丛内外净生态系统CO2交换速率日动态均以"S"型变化趋势为主,在水分亏缺时期表现为微弱的"双峰"型趋势。(3)灌丛内生长季净生态系统CO2交换速率平均值为(-3.86±0.09)g·m-2·d-1,是灌丛外草地(-1.19±0.07)g·m-2·d-1的3.2倍,灌丛内外均表现为碳汇。研究表明,铁杆蒿灌丛存在"肥岛"现象,有助于该区草地生态系统有机碳的积累,土壤水分和土壤温度是影响灌丛内外土壤呼吸速率的主要因素,而灌丛内外净生态系统CO2交换速率主要受土壤水分的影响。     

干旱胁迫降低了内蒙古羊草草原的碳累积

采用涡度相关法,分析了2004年(平水年)和2005-2006年(干旱年)生长季内蒙古锡林河流域羊草(Leymus chinensis)草原的净生态系统碳交换(net ecosystem exchange,NEE)、总初级生产力(gross primary productivity,GPP)和生态系统呼吸(ecosystem respiration,Re)的季节和年度变化。结果表明:平水年羊草草原的日最大GPP和Re分别为4.89和1.99g C·m-2·d-1,而干旱年GPP和Re分别为1.53-3.01和1.38-1.77g C·m-2·d-1。与平水年相比,干旱年日最大GPP、Re分别下降了38%-68%和11%-12%。平水年羊草草原累积的GPP、Re分别为294和180g C·m-2,而在干旱年分别为102-123g C·m-2和132-158g C·m-2。和平水年相比,干旱年的GPP、Re分别下降了58%-65%和12%-27%。用Van't Hoff模型模拟的8个窄土壤含水量(θ)跨度生态系统呼吸(Re)对土壤温度(Ts)的敏感程度表明:曲线斜率在θ=0.16-0.17m3·m-3范围内达到最大,高于或者低于这个阈值,Re对Ts的敏感度降低。干旱胁迫降低了生态系统生产力和生态系统呼吸量。与平水年相比,干旱年的GPP比Re下降的幅度更大,干旱胁迫降低了内蒙古羊草草原的碳累积,使生态系统由碳汇变为碳源。     

青海省三江源区人工草地生态系统CO2通量

 了解三江源人工草地净生态系统CO₂交换(Net ecosystem CO₂ exchange, NEE)的季节变化规律和主要生物因子及环境因子对这些过程的影响将有助于认识青藏高原人工草地生态系统碳循环、生态价值、功能,以及对三江源区的生态安全的重要意义。该研究利用涡度相关技术,于2005年9月1日至2006年8月31日对位于青海腹地的垂穗披碱草（Elymus nutans）人工草地的NEE及生物和环境因子进行观测, 阐明NEE及其组分的动态变化特征和影响因子。三江源区人工草地生态系统的日最大吸收量为2.38 g C·m^－2·d^－1,出 现在7月30日。日间最大吸收率和最大排放率都出现在8月,分别为-6.82和2.95μmol CO₂·m^－2·s^－1。在生长季, 白天的NEE主要受光合有效辐射(Photosynthe tically active rad iation, PAR)变化控制,同时又与叶面积指数和群落多样性交互作用,共同调节光合速率和光合效率的强度。最大光合同化速率为2.46～10.39μmol CO₂·m^－2·s^－1,表观初始光能利用率为0.013～0.070μmol CO₂·μmol^－1 PAR。 在碳交换日过程中,NEE并不完全随着 PAR的增加而增大,当PAR超过某一值（>1 200μmol ·m^－2·s^－1）时,NEE随PAR的增加而降低。受温度的影响,生长季的生态系统的呼吸商Q₁₀（1.8）小于非生长季节的 2.6）。 生态系统呼吸主要受温度的控制,同时也受到叶面积指数的显著影响。生长季昼夜温差大并不利于生态系统的碳获取。 三江源区人工草地生态系统是一个较强的碳汇,为-49.35 g C·m^－2·a^－1。

黄河三角洲芦苇湿地生态系统碳、水热通量特征

利用涡度相关法对黄河三角洲芦苇湿地生态系统进行了连续两年的通量观测,对2009—2010年生长季芦苇湿地的净生态系统碳交换量(NEE),感热通量(Hs)和潜热通量(LE)数据进行了分析。结果表明,在日尺度上,芦苇湿地NEE日变化特征表现为两个CO2吸收高峰,分别出现在11:00和16:00左右,其特点是在午间出现了碳交换通量的降低。CO2吸收的日最大值在两个生长季出现的时间有所不同,分别出现在2009年7月(-0.30 mg CO2m-2s-1)和2010年6月(-0.37 mg CO2m-2s-1)。CO2排放的日最大值两个生长季均出现在9月,分别为0.19和0.25 mg CO2m-2s-1。Hs和LE的日动态均为单峰型,极值都出现在中午前后,生长季生态系统的能量消耗主要以潜热为主,且在日尺度上,热通量和NEE有显著的负相关关系。在季节尺度上,芦苇湿地生长季具有明显的碳汇功能,2009年生长季生态系统白天固定354.63 g CO2/m2,同时期夜间释放159.24 g CO2/m2,净CO2吸收量为-195.39 g CO2/m2。2009年整个生长季生态系统总初级生产力(GPP)为-651.13 g CO2/m2,生态系统呼吸(Re)为455.74 g CO2/m2,系统表现为碳汇。路径分析表明:光合有效辐射(PAR)显著影响NEE的日动态(R2=0.46—0.84),而NEE的季节动态主要受土壤温度的影响,降水和PAR的影响次之。     

二氧化碳储存通量对森林生态系统碳收支的影响

涡度相关系统观测高度以下的CO2储存通量对准确评价森林生态系统与大气间净CO2交换量(NEE)有着重要的影响.本研究以长白山阔叶红松林为研究对象,利用2003年的涡度相关观测数据以及CO2浓度廓线数据,分析了CO2储存通量的变化规律及其对碳收支过程的影响.结果表明:涡度相关观测高度以下的CO2储存通量具有典型的日变化特征,其最大变化量出现在大气稳定与不稳定层结转换期.利用涡度相关系统观测的单点CO2浓度变化方法与利用CO2浓度廓线方法计算的CO2储存通量差异不显著.忽略CO2储存通量,在半小时尺度上会造成对夜间和白天的NEE分别低估25%和19%,在日和年尺度上,会对NEE低估10%和25%;忽略CO2储存通量,会低估Michaelis-Menten光响应方程及Lloyd-Taylor呼吸方程的参数,并且对表观初始量子效率α和参考呼吸Rref的低估最大;忽略CO2储存通量,在半小时、日及年尺度上,均会对总光合作用(GPP)和生态系统呼吸(Re)低估约20%.     

树干CO_2释放速率影响因素研究进展

树干CO2释放速率(stemCO2effluxrate,FCO2)是森林生态系统碳循环的重要组成部分,其占树木自养呼吸的14%～48%。对FCO2影响因素进行分析,对于了解全球碳循环以及森林生态系统对全球变暖的响应具有重要意义。本文综述了生物因素和非生物因素对FCO2的影响,指出这些因素不仅直接或间接影响FCO2,而且各因素间还存在交互作用,此外,各因素的影响程度也会随时间、空间而变化。在此基础上,本文提出了今后研究应集中在以下几方面:(1)运用有效方法分离树干释放CO2的各个组分,并分析各个组分与影响因素的关系,深入揭示FCO2变化机制;(2)加强生物、非生物因素交互影响FCO2动态模型的研究,用以提高模拟的准确性;(3)深入探讨FCO2的温度适应性。     

Tropical Montane Forest Restoration in Costa Rica: Overcoming Barriers to Dispersal and Establishment

Tropical forests are being cleared at an alarming rate although our understanding of their ecology is limited. It is therefore essential to design restoration experiments that both further our basic knowledge of tropical ecology and inform management strategies to facilitate recovery of these ecosystems. Here we synthesize the results of research on tropical montane forest recovery in abandoned pasture in Costa Rica to address the following questions: (1) What factors limit tropical forest recovery in abandoned pasture? and (2) How can we use this information to design strategies to facilitate ecosystem recovery? Our results indicate that a number of factors impede tropical forest recovery in abandoned pasture land. The most important barriers are lack of dispersal of forest seeds and seedling competition with pasture grasses. High seed predation, low seed germination, lack of nutrients, high light intensity, and rabbit herbivory also affect recovery. Successful strategies to facilitate recovery in abandoned pastures must simultaneously overcome numerous obstacles. Our research shows that establishment of woody species, either native tree seedlings or early‐successional shrubs, can be successful in facilitating recovery, by enhancing seed dispersal and shading out pasture grasses. On the contrary, bird perching structures alone are not an effective strategy, because they only serve to enhance seed dispersal but do not reduce grass cover. Remnant pasture trees can serve as foci of natural recovery and may enhance growth of planted seedlings. Our results highlight the importance of: (1) understanding the basic biology of an ecosystem to design effective restoration strategies; (2) comparing results across a range of sites to determine which restoration strategies are most generally useful; and (3) considering where best to allocate efforts in large‐scale restoration projects.     

Comparison of the mass and energy exchange of a pasture and a mature transitional tropical forest of the southern Amazon Basin during a seasonal transition

This research utilized tower‐based eddy covariance to quantify the trends in net ecosystem mass (CO₂ and H₂O vapor) and energy exchange of important land‐cover types of NW Mato Grosso during the March–December 2002 seasonal transition. Measurements were made in a mature transitional (ecotonal) tropical forest near Sinop, Mato Grosso, and a cattle pasture near Cotriguaçú, Mato Grosso, located 500 km WNW of Sinop. Pasture net ecosystem CO₂ exchange (NEE) was considerably more variable than the forest NEE over the seasonal transition, and the pasture had significantly higher rates of maximum gross primary production in every season except the dry–wet season transition (September–October). The pasture also had significantly higher rates of whole‐ecosystem dark respiration than the forest during the wetter times of the year. Average (±95% CI) rates of total daily NEE during the March–December 2002 measurement period were 26±15 mmol m^?2 day^?1 for the forest (positive values indicate net CO₂ loss by the ecosystem) and ?38±26 mmol m^?2 day^?1 for the pasture. While both ecosystems partitioned more net radiation (R_n) into latent heat flux (L_e), the forest had significantly higher rates of L_e and lower rates of sensible heat flux (H) than the pasture; a trend that became more extreme during the onset of the dry season. Large differences in pasture and forest mass and energy exchange occurred even though seasonal variations in micrometeorology (air temperature, humidity, and radiation) were relatively similar for both ecosystems. While the short measurement period and lack of spatial replication limit the ability to generalize these results to pasture and forest regions of the Amazon Basin, these results suggest important differences in the magnitude and seasonal variation of NEE and energy partitioning for pasture and transitional tropical forest.     

土壤呼吸对温度升高的适应

土壤呼吸是陆地生态系统碳循环的重要环节之一 ,其对温度升高的敏感程度在相当大的程度上决定着全球气候变化与碳循环之间的反馈关系。土壤呼吸对温度升高的适应是个比较普遍的现象 ,其表现形式主要为随着温度的持续升高和升温时间的延长 ,土壤呼吸对温度升高反应的敏感程度下降。产生这一现象的机制包括影响因子主导地位的转移和温度以外其他因子的协同变化。土壤呼吸对温度升高的适应可以视为碳循环对全球变暖的负反馈效应 ,它可能会在一定程度上缓和陆地生态系统对全球气候系统之间的耦合作用 ,并且导致土壤呼吸对全球温度升高响应的时空差异。由于目前生态系统模型多数没有考虑土壤呼吸的对温度升高的适应性 ,而采用统一的 Q1 0 值 ,其对未来土壤呼吸和未来气候变化幅度的预测可能存在偏差     

陆地植被的固碳功能与适用于碳贸易的生物固碳方式

 碳贸易的核心问题是要有足够的碳封存量在抵消CO₂的排放之后还能有碳额度进入市场买卖。该文结合固碳概念,从固碳技术、减量成本、对生态系统碳汇功能的影响等多方面对目前存在的和有潜力的各种减排与固碳途径进行了比较分析,认为陆地植被对CO₂的吸收是最安全有效的固碳过程,它们能够在一定的浓度范围内吸收CO₂,从而节省分离、提纯等 技术的费用。进而该文分别对森林、草地、农田等3种陆地植被的固碳功能与不同固碳策略对固碳效果的影响两个方面进行详细具体的比较分析,得出森林生态系统具有强大的碳吸收能力,草地与农田土壤有机碳库在固碳方面的作用也十分显著。最后结合我国实际,提出4 项适用于碳贸易的生物固碳方式,即保护天然林,推广种植速生丰产人工林;保育天然草地 、建设人工草地;建立规模化沼气产业链;注重利用边际土地种植生物质能源,促进生物质能源的开发     

Photosynthetic Responses to Light for Rainforest Seedlings Planted in Abandoned Pasture, Costa Rica

Efforts to reforest tropical pasture with native tree species have increased in recent years, yet little is known about the physiology of most tropical trees. The goal of this study was to assess the effect of habitat on photosynthetic responses to light for seedlings of four native rainforest species (Calophyllum brasiliense, Ocotea glaucosericea, Ocotea whitei, and Sideroxylon portoricense) planted to facilitate tropical rainforest recovery in southern Costa Rica. Seedlings were planted in primary forest, in open abandoned pasture, and in the shade of remnant trees within the pasture. Growth, morphology, photosynthetic gas exchange responses to light, and chlorophyll fluorescence (an indication of the integrity of photosynthetic processes) were measured in the three habitats. Height and leaf area were generally greater for seedlings in tree shade compared to those in the forest and open pasture. Photosynthetic rates were higher for plants in open pasture and tree shade compared to those in the forest for two of the four species. Chlorophyll fluorescence results indicated flexibility in the photosynthetic processing of light energy that may help plants tolerate the bright light of the pasture. This study demonstrates that, for certain species, seedlings under remnant pasture trees do not exhibit the level of photosynthetic stress experienced in open abandoned pasture. Seedling responses to light, in combination with other factors such as increased nutrient input through litterfall, help explain the enhanced growth of seedlings under remnant pasture trees. Planting seedlings under remnant trees may increase the success of future efforts to restore tropical forest in abandoned agricultural land.     

Carbon sequestration potential of tropical pasture compared with afforestation in Panama

Tropical forest ecosystems play an important role in regulating the global climate, yet deforestation and land‐use change mean that the tropical carbon sink is increasingly influenced by agroecosystems and pastures. Despite this, it is not yet fully understood how carbon cycling in the tropics responds to land‐use change, particularly for pasture and afforestation. Thus, the objectives of our study were: (1) to elucidate the environmental controls and the impact of management on gross primary production (GPP), total ecosystem respiration (TER) and net ecosystem CO₂ exchange (NEE); (2) to estimate the carbon sequestration potential of tropical pasture compared with afforestation; and (3) to compare eddy covariance‐derived carbon budgets with biomass and soil inventory data. We performed comparative measurements of NEE in a tropical C₄ pasture and an adjacent afforestation with native tree species in Sardinilla (Panama) from 2007 to 2009. Pronounced seasonal variation in GPP, TER and NEE were closely related to radiation, soil moisture, and C₃ vs. C₄ plant physiology. The shallow rooting depth of grasses compared with trees resulted in a higher sensitivity of the pasture ecosystem to water limitation and seasonal drought. During 2008, substantial amounts of carbon were sequestered by the afforestation (–442 g C m^–2, negative values denote ecosystem carbon uptake), which was in agreement with biometric observations (–450 g C m^–2). In contrast, the pasture ecosystem was a strong carbon source in 2008 and 2009 (261 g C m^–2), associated with seasonal drought and overgrazing. In addition, soil carbon isotope data indicated rapid carbon turnover after conversion from C₄ pasture to C₃ afforestation. Our results clearly show the potential for considerable carbon sequestration of tropical afforestation and highlight the risk of carbon losses from pasture ecosystems in a seasonal tropical climate.     

Re‐forestation restores native dominance in an island beetle fauna

Native re‐forestation is a widely used restoration tool, typically undertaken with the expectation that planting native trees will initiate succession processes (including the re‐establishment of native fauna) that will eventually return the ecosystem to a native‐dominated state. Invertebrate groups can be used to assess restoration progress, as their life history traits enable them to respond more rapidly to environmental change than many other organisms. In this study, we assessed beetle responses to re‐forestation. Using two trapping methods (flight intercept traps and pitfall traps), we compared beetle assemblages in exotic pasture (pre‐restoration state), <10‐year‐old planted native forest (restoration intervention) and approximately 40‐year‐old unmanaged regenerating native forest (reference state). Analysis of the flight intercept‐trapped beetles suggests that re‐forestation has initiated a transition from an exotic‐dominated pasture fauna toward a native‐dominated fauna: in planted forests, 75% of all flight‐intercept‐trapped beetles were native (compared with 22% in pasture and 87% in unmanaged forest). Flight intercept‐trapped beetles also had higher native diversity and abundance in both forest types than in pasture. Pitfall‐trapped beetle species were predominantly native in both forest types, but there were few statistically significant differences between the forests and pasture in the pit‐fall trap data set. Both trapping methods detected significant compositional differences between the beetle assemblages in planted forest and unmanaged forest. Replanting native forest has increased native beetle diversity, abundance, and dominance (compared with the pre‐restoration state), but convergence with the unmanaged reference forest has not yet been achieved.     

CO2浓度倍增、高氮沉降和高降雨对南亚热带人工模拟森林生态系统土壤呼吸的影响

 土壤呼吸响应全球气候变化对全球C循环具有重要作用。应用大型开顶箱(Open-top chamber, OTC)人工控制手段, 研究了大气CO₂浓度倍增、高氮沉降和高降雨处理对南亚热带人工森林生态系统土壤呼吸的影响。结果表明: 对照箱、CO₂浓度倍增处理以及高氮沉降处理下土壤呼吸速率都具有明显的季节变化, 雨季(4~9月)的土壤呼吸速率显著高于旱季(10月至次年3月) (p<0.001); 但高降雨处理下无明显的季节差异(p>0.05)。CO₂浓度倍增能显著提高土壤呼吸速率(p<0.05), 其他处理则变化不大。大气CO₂浓度倍增、高氮沉降、高降雨处理和对照箱的土壤呼吸年通量分别为4 241.7、3 400.8、3 432.0和3 308.4 g CO₂·m^–2·a^–1。但在不同季节, 各种处理对土壤呼吸的影响是不同的。在雨季, 大气CO₂浓度倍增和高氮沉降的土壤呼吸速率显著提高(p<0.05), 其他处理无显著变化; 而在旱季, 高降雨的土壤呼吸速率显著高于对照箱(p<0.05), 氮沉降处理则抑制土壤呼吸作用(p<0.05)。各处理的土壤呼吸速率与地下5 cm土壤温度之间具有显著的指数关系(p<0.001); 当土壤湿度低于15%时, 各处理的土壤呼吸速率与地下5 cm土壤湿度具有显著的线性关系(p<0.001)。     

西双版纳热带季节雨林干热季林冠上小气候特征及CO2通量的观测

热带森林在陆地生态系统中起着重要的作用,但是人们对它在碳循环中的作用却了解不多;近年来,为了对其进行深入研究,热带森林的CO2通量成为了研究的热点。应用微气象法中的开路系统涡度相关法,使用设置在西双版纳一片成熟的热带季节雨林中观测铁塔上的观测仪器所得的干热季7个晴好天气的CO2通量及小气候观测数据,对冠层的CO2通量及小气候特征进行了分析研究。研究结果表明:(1)热带季节雨林林冠上风速及摩擦风速在中午和上半夜较大,而后半夜和上午较小;风向有显著的昼、夜交替特征,昼间多为偏东风(45~135°),而夜间多为偏西风(250~280)°;(2)林冠上方气温和树冠面表温具有显著的日变化特征,树冠表温日变化幅度大于气温,热量由空气传向树冠中,在观测的7d中,气温有着较明显的升高趋势;(3)干热季林冠上湿度变化范围为26.5%~97.2%,饱和水汽压差数值大小介于0.3~30.5 hPa之间;(4)CO2浓度在364.5~408.5m l/m3之间变化,夜间浓度升高,而昼间CO2浓度降低;(5)地下5cm土壤温度与气温一样日变化规律明显,土壤含水量的变化幅度很小,在7d内其变化幅度维持在19.9%~23.3%之间,日变化幅度更小;(6)总体上讲林冠上方显热通量小于潜热通量,上午显热通量和潜热通量的数值基本相同,但是在中午和下午,潜热通量远大于显热通量,充分显示了西双版纳干热季热带雨林森林的热量支出主要是蒸腾耗热;(7)观测期间,生态系统净CO2交换(NEE)在-20.9~17.6μm o l/(m2.s)之间浮动,每天最大净CO2吸收速率在-20.9~-12.9μm o l/(m2.s)范围内。从生态系统净CO2交换的平均日变化看,昼间最大的净CO2吸收速率为-12.4μm o l/(m2.s),夜间最大的净释放速率为6.6μm o l/(m2.s)。净CO2交换的日累积量在-0.0665~0.0448m o l/m2范围内变化,7d的累积量为-0.0140 m o l/m2,表明在西双版纳干热季的7 d观测时间段里,热带季节雨林呈现弱的碳汇效应。
