降水格局改变背景下土壤呼吸变化的主要影响因素及其调控过程

全球气候变化带来降水格局的改变。土壤呼吸是土壤碳库向大气释放CO_2的重要途径,其对降水变化的响应对陆地生态系统碳循环和全球气候变化进程有着重要的意义。该研究收集了来自全球各地土壤呼吸对降水变化响应的控制试验结果进行分析,以揭示降水格局变化对土壤呼吸影响的普遍规律和控制机制。结果显示:增加降水促进土壤呼吸2%–135%,减少降水抑制土壤呼吸19%–24%,当降水改变量标准化到所有处理的平均值(当年当地降水量的41%)时,增加降水促进的土壤呼吸量(49%)显著大于减少降雨抑制的土壤呼吸量(21%)。土壤湿度是降水变化下驱动土壤呼吸改变的主要因子,其一方面直接影响土壤呼吸,另一方面通过影响土壤微生物碳库、地上/地下净初级生产力来影响土壤呼吸,总解释度高达98%。同时土壤呼吸对降水变化的响应程度随着环境温度和降水量发生变化。土壤呼吸对降水增加的敏感性随环境温度的升高没有显著变化,但对降水减少的敏感性随着环境温度的升高逐渐增强。随着环境降水量的逐渐增加,土壤呼吸对降水增加和减少的敏感性均呈现下降趋势。说明在未来全球降水格局的改变下,土壤呼吸对降水变化的响应有很大的区域差异,受当地气候条件的影响。     

降雨对旱作春玉米农田土壤呼吸动态的影响

土壤呼吸是调控全球碳平衡和气候变化的关键过程之一,降雨作为重要的扰动因子,在不同区域和不同环境条件下,对土壤呼吸具有复杂的影响.研究降雨对农田土壤呼吸及其分量的影响,对准确预测未来气候变化下陆地生态系统碳平衡具有重要意义.对黄土高原东部典型春玉米农田生态系统生长季内3次降雨前后土壤呼吸及其分量进行了原位连续观测,结果表明:在土壤湿润的条件下,降雨对春玉米农田土壤呼吸及其分量具有明显的抑制作用,在土壤湿度大于27％后土壤呼吸及其分量随土壤湿度上升呈明显下降,且对温度的敏感性降低.土壤呼吸及其分量在降雨前后的变化受土壤温度和土壤湿度的共同影响.降雨量、降雨历时和雨前土壤含水量决定了土壤呼吸及其分量对降雨响应的程度和时长.土壤呼吸及其分量对土壤温度的敏感性各不相同,微生物呼吸对温度的敏感性最高,Q10为5.14;其次是土壤呼吸,Q10为3.86;根呼吸的温度敏感性相对最低,Q10为3.24.由于土壤呼吸分量对温度和湿度的敏感性不同,降雨后根呼吸的比例有所升高.     

间伐和改变凋落物输入对华北落叶松人工林土壤呼吸的影响

作为森林生态系统的第二大碳通量,土壤呼吸在全球碳循环和气候变化中发挥着重要作用。通过探究土壤呼吸对间伐和改变凋落物的响应规律以及响应之间的联系,能够为准确评价森林碳循环提供依据。针对不同强度(对照、轻度、中度、重度)间伐后的华北落叶松人工林,2016年5月至10月采用LI-8100土壤碳通量测量系统对其原状、凋落物去除、凋落物加倍的土壤呼吸进行观测。结果表明:土壤呼吸在生长季的8月份达到最高值,呈现出明显的季节动态。不同林分间伐处理下,中度间伐显著促进了土壤呼吸,使平均土壤呼吸速率升高了15.66%,轻度间伐和重度间伐对土壤呼吸的影响不显著;不同凋落物处理下,去除凋落物使平均土壤呼吸速率降低了40.16%,加倍凋落物使平均土壤呼吸速率升高了16.06%。中度间伐使土壤呼吸生长季通量增加了55.06 g C/m~2;去除凋落物使土壤呼吸生长季通量减少了153.48 g C/m~2,加倍凋落物使土壤呼吸生长季通量增加了79.87 g C/m~2。土壤呼吸速率与土壤温度呈显著指数相关,而与土壤湿度无显著相关。不同林分间伐处理下,土壤呼吸的温度敏感性指数(Q10)为2.36—3.46,轻度间伐下Q10值最高;凋落物去除和加倍均降低了土壤呼吸的温度敏感性。土壤温湿度对土壤呼吸存在着显著影响,能够解释土壤呼吸28.7%—62.3%的季节变化。研究结果表明间伐和凋落物处理对华北落叶松人工林土壤CO_2释放的影响表现出一定的交互作用,中度间伐和加倍凋落物的交互作用对土壤呼吸的促进作用显著大于单一因子。可见,间伐作业通过改变土壤微环境和凋落物量,对土壤呼吸以及森林生态系统碳循环产生着重要影响。     

降雨量改变对黄河三角洲滨海湿地土壤呼吸的影响

全球变化背景下,降雨模式变化造成土壤水分波动是引起土壤呼吸动态变化的重要驱动力。但滨海湿地如何响应降雨模式变化,进而引起生态系统蓝碳功能改变的机制尚不清楚。依托黄河三角洲滨海湿地增减雨野外控制试验平台,采用土壤碳通量观测系统(LI—8100)对湿地土壤呼吸速率进行监测,探究了2017年黄河三角洲滨海湿地土壤呼吸及环境、生物因子对减雨60%、减雨40%、对照60%、对照40%、增雨40%、增雨60%等变化的响应及机制。结果表明:1)随着降雨量增加,湿地土壤温度逐渐降低;同时增雨和减雨处理均显著提高了湿地土壤湿度(P0.05)。(2)降雨量变化显著影响湿地植被物种组成、地上和地下生物量分配以及植被根冠比(P0.05)。增雨40%和增雨60%均显著提高了湿地植物种类和植被根冠比,但同时显著降低了湿地植被地上生物量。此外,增雨40%和减雨60%处理均显著提高了湿地植被地下生物量。(3)降雨量变化对2017年湿地季节土壤呼吸无显著影响,但在湿地非淹水期,增雨60%和增雨40%均显著提高了湿地土壤呼吸速率(P0.05)。(4)2017年湿地不同降雨处理的土壤呼吸与土壤湿度均呈二次曲线关系(P0.05),相关系数随降雨量增加而降低;同时在非淹水期不同降雨处理的土壤呼吸与土壤温度均指数相关(P0.05),土壤呼吸温度敏感性(Q_(10))随降雨量增加而增大。在淹水期不同降雨处理土壤呼吸与土壤温度无显著相关关系。(5)淹水期土壤呼吸速率与地表水位呈指数负相关(P0.001)。     

增温和刈割对高寒草甸土壤呼吸及其组分的影响

评估土壤呼吸及其组分对增温等全球变化的响应对于预测陆地生态系统碳循环至关重要。本研究利用红外线辐射加热器(Infrared heater)装置在青藏高原高寒草甸生态系统设置增温和刈割野外控制实验。通过测定2018年生长季(5—9月)土壤呼吸和异养呼吸,探究增温和刈割对土壤呼吸及其组分的影响。研究结果表明：(1) 单独增温使土壤呼吸显著增加31.65% (P<0.05),异养呼吸显著增加27.12% (P<0.05),土壤自养呼吸没有显著改变(P>0.05);单独刈割对土壤呼吸和自养呼吸没有显著影响(P>0.05),单独刈割刺激异养呼吸增加32.54% (P<0.05);(2) 增温和刈割之间的交互作用对土壤呼吸和异养呼吸没有显著影响(P>0.05),但是对自养呼吸的影响是显著的(P<0.05),土壤呼吸和异养呼吸的季节效应显著(P<0.05);(3)土壤呼吸及其组分与土壤温度均成显著指数关系,与土壤湿度呈显著的正相关关系(P<0.05),处理影响它们的响应敏感性。本研究表明青藏高原东缘高寒草甸土壤碳排放与气候变暖存在正反馈。     

土壤呼吸组分对气候变暖的响应研究进展

气候变暖正在深刻地改变全球碳循环过程.土壤呼吸作为全球碳循环的重要环节,连接着植物-土壤-微生物之间的碳转移过程.土壤呼吸可分为异养呼吸和根源呼吸(根系呼吸和根际微生物呼吸)等组分.土壤呼吸各组分的发生部位与利用的有机碳源不同,其对气候变暖的响应可能存在显著差异.然而,目前的研究还不能完全实现土壤呼吸各组分的精确区分和量化,气候变暖对土壤呼吸各组分的影响及其具体机制仍存在很多悬而未决的问题,这极大地限制了人们对土壤碳循环评估的精确性以及对气候变暖背景下陆地生态系统碳收支格局变化的认识.本文系统综述了目前国内外土壤呼吸组分区分技术,分析了土壤呼吸组分区分的研究结果,并论述了土壤呼吸各组分对气候变暖的响应研究进展.提出仍需发展新的土壤呼吸组分区分技术或者改进和创新现有技术,未来的研究重点应放在精确区分野外条件下根源呼吸组分,同时开展土壤呼吸组分对多种环境因子变化的响应研究,以期更全面地认识土壤碳循环过程以及全球变化背景下陆地生态系统碳收支的变化趋势.     

短期施氮肥降低杉木幼林土壤的根系和微生物呼吸

土壤呼吸是陆地生态系统碳循环的重要过程。在人工林生态系统中, 施肥不仅能提高人工林的生产力和固碳能力, 而且还会对土壤呼吸产生影响。为阐明施氮肥对人工林土壤总呼吸、根系和微生物呼吸的影响, 在中亚热带地区的湖南会同, 以5年生杉木(Cunninghamia lanceolata)幼林为研究对象, 施氮肥1年后, 利用LI-8100对土壤呼吸进行为期12个月的野外原位定点观测。结果发现: 施氮肥使土壤总呼吸、根系呼吸和微生物呼吸分别降低了22.7%、19.6%和23.5%; 土壤呼吸的温度敏感性(Q₁₀)为1.81-2.04, 施肥使土壤微生物呼吸的Q₁₀值从对照的2.04降低为1.84, 但土壤总呼吸的Q₁₀值没有发生显著变化; 施肥没有改变土壤呼吸的季节变化, 在双因素模型中, 土壤温度和含水量可以解释土壤呼吸季节变化的69.9%-79.7%。研究表明施氮肥能降低中亚热带地区杉木人工林土壤有机碳分解对温度升高的响应, 在全球变暖背景下有利于增加土壤有机碳储量。     

积雪对祁连山亚高山草甸土壤呼吸速率的影响

草地作为陆地生态系统的重要组成部分,是分布最广的植被类型之一,全球草地面积约占陆地面积的1/4,土壤碳储量约占全球总碳储量的1/5,在气候变化和陆地生态系统的碳循环方面起着重要作用。我国各类天然草原面积近4亿hm~2,约占国土面积的41.7%,草地的总碳储量约占陆地生态系统总碳储量的16.7%,其中土壤层占93.1%,在碳储量中占有重要的地位。土壤呼吸是陆地生态系统碳循环的主要环节,其中草地土壤呼吸占陆地土壤呼吸量的5.6%,因此草地土壤碳库正成为草地生态系统研究的热点。祁连山草地资源丰富,亚高山草甸是祁连山自然保护区的基质景观。积雪作为冰冻圈的重要组成部分,对土壤温度和土壤水分具有调控作用,是影响土壤呼吸的重要因素,但是目前关于积雪对土壤呼吸的影响研究少见。研究区选择祁连山中部天涝池流域,利用LI-8100开路式土壤碳通量测定系统,探讨了土壤不同融化状态下积雪对祁连山亚高山草甸生态系统呼吸速率和土壤呼吸速率的影响,并分析了地表温度和土壤温度、地表空气相对湿度和土壤体积含水量对土壤呼吸的影响。结果表明:(1)雪覆盖降低了生态系统呼吸和土壤呼吸速率,但当日融化的积雪对次日生态系统呼吸有促进作用;(2)呼吸速率与土壤温度和地表温度呈显著指数关系(P0.01),与地表空气相对湿度呈线性相关关系。降雪后,全融土壤中呼吸速率与温度和地表空气相对湿度间的相关性好;(3)温度较高时,温度对呼吸速率的作用强;温度较低时,温度对呼吸速率的影响不大。     

土壤呼吸对降雨变化和氮沉降交互作用响应的研究进展

土壤呼吸作为陆地生态系统碳循环的关键过程,对大气CO₂浓度变化有直接影响。研究其如何响应降雨变化、氮沉降增加等全球变化因子,成为近年全球变化领域的热点与难点。与土壤呼吸响应降雨变化或氮沉降增加单个因子相比,研究土壤呼吸对这两个因子交互作用的响应更接近真实的自然环境,可更准确地预估未来土壤碳排放的变化趋势。目前,相关研究涉及全球不同的陆地生态系统,从土壤、微生物和植物层面对其响应机理进行揭示。本文从土壤呼吸及其组分、相关的土壤性质、微生物及植物因素方面,较全面地梳理了不同陆地生态系统土壤呼吸响应降雨变化和氮沉降增加交互作用的研究进展,指出了现有研究中的不足及今后需加强的研究方向,以期为进一步揭示土壤呼吸对降雨变化和氮沉降增加交互作用的响应规律及机制提供参考。     

干湿交替下草地生态系统土壤呼吸变化的微生物响应机制研究进展

草地是陆地生态系统中最重要、分布最广的生态系统类型之一,对全球碳循环和气候调节有着重要的作用和效应.我国拥有极为丰富的草地资源,是巨大的陆地碳储存库,也是全球碳循环重要组成部分.干湿交替是土壤中普遍发生的自然现象,这种现象的发生可能会加速土壤的碳矿化过程、激增土壤呼吸以及影响微生物的活性和群落结构等.在全球变化日趋显著的背景下,降雨量、降雨强度以及降雨频率的变化将会加速土壤干湿交替进程,进而带来微生物活性、群落结构以及土壤呼吸的变化,并对全球碳循环过程产生重要影响.本文综述了近十年来国内外的相关文献,对干湿交替条件下,土壤释放CO₂消耗碳源、土壤呼吸随时间的动态变化趋势以及土壤呼吸与微生物量、微生物活性和微生物群落结构之间的关系进行了分析和总结,以期为更好地理解干湿交替过程中草地生态系统土壤呼吸的微生物学响应机制,更准确地预测和评估未来的全球陆地生态系统的碳收支与气候变化提供一定的理论基础.     

Responses of soil respiration to elevated CO2, air warming, and changing soil water availability in a model old-field grassland

Responses of soil respiration to atmospheric and climatic change will have profound impacts on ecosystem and global carbon (C) cycling in the future. This study was conducted to examine effects on soil respiration of the concurrent driving factors of elevated atmospheric CO₂ concentration, air warming, and changing precipitation in a constructed old‐field grassland in eastern Tennessee, USA. Model ecosystems of seven old‐field species were established in open‐top chambers and treated with factorial combinations of ambient or elevated (+300 ppm) CO₂ concentration, ambient or elevated (+3 °C) air temperature, and high or low soil moisture content. During the 19‐month experimental period from June 2003 to December 2004, higher CO₂ concentration and soil water availability significantly increased mean soil respiration by 35.8% and 15.7%, respectively. The effects of air warming on soil respiration varied seasonally from small reductions to significant increases to no response, and there was no significant main effect. In the wet side of elevated CO₂ chambers, air warming consistently caused increases in soil respiration, whereas in the other three combinations of CO₂ and water treatments, warming tended to decrease soil respiration over the growing season but increase it over the winter. There were no interactive effects on soil respiration among any two or three treatment factors irrespective of time period. Treatment‐induced changes in soil temperature and moisture together explained 49%, 44%, and 56% of the seasonal variations of soil respiration responses to elevated CO₂, air warming, and changing precipitation, respectively. Additional indirect effects of seasonal dynamics and responses of plant growth on C substrate supply were indicated. Given the importance of indirect effects of the forcing factors and plant community dynamics on soil temperature, moisture, and C substrate, soil respiration response to climatic warming should not be represented in models as a simple temperature response function, and a more mechanistic representation including vegetation dynamics and substrate supply is needed.     

短期增温和增加降水对内蒙古荒漠草原土壤呼吸的影响

利用红外辐射增温装置模拟短期持续增温和降水增加交互作用对内蒙古荒漠草原土壤呼吸作用的影响, 结果表明: 土壤含水量对月土壤呼吸的影响显著大于土壤温度增加的影响, 生长旺季的月土壤呼吸显著大于生长末季; 土壤温度和水分增加都显著影响日土壤呼吸, 但二者的交互作用对土壤呼吸无显著影响。荒漠草原7‒8月平均土壤呼吸速率为1.35 μmol CO₂·m ^-2·s ^-1, 7月份为2.08 μmol CO₂·m ^-2·s ^-1, 8月份为0.63 μmol CO₂·m ^-2·s ^-1。土壤呼吸与地下各层根系生物量呈幂函数关系, 0‒10 cm土层的根系生物量对土壤呼吸的解释率(79.2%)明显高于10‒20 cm土层的解释率(31.6%)。0-10 cm土层的根系生物量是根系生物量的主体, 根系生物量对土壤呼吸的影响具有层次性。在未来全球变暖和降水格局变化的情景下, 荒漠草原土壤水分含量是影响生物量的主导环境因子, 而根系生物量的差异是造成土壤呼吸异质性的主要生物因素, 土壤含水量可通过影响根系生物量控制土壤呼吸的异质性。     

Effects of precipitation increase on soil respiration: a three-year field experiment in subtropical forests in china

Background

The aim of this study was to determine response patterns and mechanisms of soil respiration to precipitation increases in subtropical regions.

Methodology/Principal Findings

Field plots in three typical forests [i.e. pine forest (PF), broadleaf forest (BF), and pine and broadleaf mixed forest (MF)] in subtropical China were exposed under either Double Precipitation (DP) treatment or Ambient Precipitation (AP). Soil respiration, soil temperature, soil moisture, soil microbial biomass and fine root biomass were measured over three years. We tested whether precipitation treatments influenced the relationship of soil respiration rate (R) with soil temperature (T) and soil moisture (M) using R = (a+cM)exp(bT), where a is a parameter related to basal soil respiration; b and c are parameters related to the soil temperature and moisture sensitivities of soil respiration, respectively. We found that the DP treatment only slightly increased mean annual soil respiration in the PF (15.4%) and did not significantly change soil respiration in the MF and the BF. In the BF, the increase in soil respiration was related to the enhancements of both soil fine root biomass and microbial biomass. The DP treatment did not change model parameters, but increased soil moisture, resulting in a slight increase in soil respiration. In the MF and the BF, the DP treatment decreased soil temperature sensitivity b but increased basal soil respiration a, resulting in no significant change in soil respiration.

Conclusion/Significance

Our results indicate that precipitation increasing in subtropical regions in China may have limited effects on soil respiration.     

Main factors driving changes in soil respiration under altering precipitation regimes and the controlling processes

Aims Our objective was to determine the effects of changes in global pattern of precipitation on soil respiration and the controlling factors. Methods Data were collected from literature on precipitation manipulation experiments globally and a meta-analysis was conducted to synthesize the responses of soil respiration to changes in precipitation regimes. Important findings We found that an increased precipitation stimulated soil respiration while a decreased precipitation suppressed it. When changes in rainfall were normalized to the average treatment level (41% of the current annual precipitation), the level of increases in soil respiration with increased precipitation (49%) were higher than that of decreases with decreased precipitation (21%), showing an asymmetric responses of soil respiration to increases and decreases in precipitation. Soil moisture occurred as the most predominant factor driving the changes in soil respiration under altered precipitation. Changes in soil moisture affected soil respiration directly and indiscreetly by changing aboveground/belowground net primary productivity and microbial biomass carbon, which collectively contributed 98% of variations in soil respiration. In addition, the responses of soil respiration to altered precipitation varied with background temperature and precipitation. The sensitivity of soil respiration increased with local mean annual temperature when precipitation was reduced, while remaining unchanged when precipitation was increased. Meanwhile, the sensitivity of soil respiration to either increases or decreases in precipitation decreased with increasing local mean annual precipitation. Under future altered precipitation regimes, the sensitivity of soil respiration to changes in precipitation is likely dependent of local environment conditions.     

Soil plus root respiration and microbial biomass following water, nitrogen, and phosphorus application at a high arctic semi desert

In order to investigate the effects of anticipated increased precipitation and changing soil nutrient levels on soil CO₂ efflux from high arctic semi desert, a field experiment was carried out in Northeast Greenland. Water, phosphorus, and nitrogen were added to plots in a fully factorial design. Soil microbial biomass carbon was analysed after one year, and respiration from soil plus roots was measured in situ throughout the third growing season after initiation of the experiment. Soil plus root respiration was enhanced by up to 47%, and the microbial biomass by 24%, by the weekly water additions, but not by nutrient additions. The direct effect of increased soil moisture on CO₂ efflux suggests that future changes of precipitation levels and patterns may strongly affect below-ground respiration in arctic semi deserts, with direction of responses depending upon amounts and frequencies of precipitation events. Morover, low CO₂ emission at low light intensities regardless of treatment suggests that the major part of the below-ground respiration originated from turnover of recently fixed C. Hence, the more recalcitrant soil organic matter C pool may not change in proportion to changes in below-ground respiration rate.     

Light and heavy fractions of soil organic matter in response to climate warming and increased precipitation in a temperate steppe

Soil is one of the most important carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) pools and plays a crucial role in ecosystem C and N cycling. Climate change profoundly affects soil C and N storage via changing C and N inputs and outputs. However, the influences of climate warming and changing precipitation regime on labile and recalcitrant fractions of soil organic C and N remain unclear. Here, we investigated soil labile and recalcitrant C and N under 6 years' treatments of experimental warming and increased precipitation in a temperate steppe in Northern China. We measured soil light fraction C (LFC) and N (LFN), microbial biomass C (MBC) and N (MBN), dissolved organic C (DOC) and heavy fraction C (HFC) and N (HFN). The results showed that increased precipitation significantly stimulated soil LFC and LFN by 16.1% and 18.5%, respectively, and increased LFC:HFC ratio and LFN:HFN ratio, suggesting that increased precipitation transferred more soil organic carbon into the quick-decayed carbon pool. Experimental warming reduced soil labile C (LFC, MBC, and DOC). In contrast, soil heavy fraction C and N, and total C and N were not significantly impacted by increased precipitation or warming. Soil labile C significantly correlated with gross ecosystem productivity, ecosystem respiration and soil respiration, but not with soil moisture and temperature, suggesting that biotic processes rather than abiotic factors determine variations in soil labile C. Our results indicate that certain soil carbon fraction is sensitive to climate change in the temperate steppe, which may in turn impact ecosystem carbon fluxes in response and feedback to climate change.     

增加降水对干旱河谷区云南松人工林土壤呼吸的影响

2013年5月至2014年6月,对干旱河谷区云南松(Pinus yunnanensis)人工林进行增加降水试验,试验设置对照(CK,0 mm m~(-2)a~(-1))、增水10%(A1,80 mm m~(-2)a~(-1))、增水20%(A2,160 mm m~(-2)a~(-1))和增水30%(A3,240 mm m~(-2)a~(-1))4个处理水平。采用LI-8100开路式土壤碳通量测量系统测定每月土壤呼吸速率。结果表明,4个处理云南松人工林土壤呼吸速率均呈明显的季节变化,7月最高,2月最低。与CK相比,A1年均土壤呼吸速率无显著性差异(P0.05),A2显著增加了12.88%(P0.05),而A3明显减少了17.71%(P0.05)。3个增水处理均提高了土壤呼吸的温度敏感性,减弱了土壤呼吸与土壤湿度的关系。与土壤温度相比,土壤湿度对土壤呼吸的影响相对较小。增水增加了湿季土壤微生物碳、氮含量,干季对微生物碳含量无影响,但明显降低了微生物氮含量。这说明,降水增加对干旱河谷区云南松人工林土壤呼吸的影响是不尽相同的,适当的增水会促进土壤呼吸,而过量的增水会抑制土壤呼吸。     

Alpine grassland ecosystem respiration variation under irrigation in Northern Tibet

Grassland ecosystems are important parts of terrestrial ecosystems and play an important role in the global carbon cycle. In recent years, the grasslands in Northern Tibet have experienced warming, and its precipitation has also increased. Alpine grassland irrigation measures could be a reasonable pathway to redistribute and make full use of the increased precipitation. In this study, we measured the soil respiration in alpine grassland in Northern Tibet under sprinkler head irrigation in the growing season to determine the relationships between soil temperature /water and ecosystem/soil respiration, soil moisture and Q₁₀, and soil temperature and Q₁₀. The results showed that after 2 years irrigation, alpine grassland aboveground biomass increased significantly, with 2010 higher than 2009. There was significant annual, seasonal and daily variation of soil respiration. Under irrigation, ecosystem respiration and soil respiration increased 75% and 64% respectively; soil water increase can promote the respiration of ecosystem and its components. In our results, the Q₁₀ value was 2.23–2.81, over the global average. The irrigation can promote ecosystem respiration temperature sensitivity. There was a positive linear correlation between ecosystem respiration and grassland aboveground biomass. The aboveground biomass accounted for 32.8% of ecosystem respiration variation. Soil respiration accounted for more than 70% of ecosystem respiration, indicating that the contribution to carbon emissions of soil respiration is very high. In short, we can project that in grasslands biomass and ecosystem respiration will increase under future precipitation change, which will significantly affect the function of alpine grassland carbon storage.     

中国典型森林生态系统土壤水分时空分异及其影响因素

森林土壤水分作为物质与能量循环的载体影响林木生长与发育,并通过影响水分在陆气之间的循环与分配影响区域气候。基于我国不同气候带的9个森林生态系统定位观测站的长期观测数据,探究了2005-2016年中国典型森林生态系统土壤水分的空间分异及其时间动态,并进一步分析了影响其时空分异的环境因素。主要研究结论如下：（1）9个森林生态系统的土壤水分多年均值介于12.45%-36.30%之间,空间上呈现中温带、亚热带、热带土壤水分较高,暖温带土壤水分较低的分布特征。降水蒸散差（降水与蒸散的差值）可以解释我国森林生态系统土壤水分空间分异的62%（P<0.05）;（2）我国北部与东部季风区森林区域土壤水分呈上升趋势,降水上升是主因,其中暖温带北京、南亚热带鼎湖山与鹤山森林土壤水分上升趋势显著,增幅分别为0.67%/a、1.72%/a与0.69%/a;西南地区森林生态系统土壤水分呈下降趋势,该趋势由降水下降与蒸散上升共同导致,其中中亚热带贡嘎山及哀牢山森林生态系统土壤水分下降趋势显著,降幅分别为-1.77%/a与-0.94%/a;土壤水分时间分异与降水蒸散差的相关性最高（R=0.59,P<0.01）;（3）土壤水分呈下降趋势的森林生态系统中,春季土壤水分变化主导了年际变化,土壤水分上升的森林生态系统中,年际变化则是由秋、冬季主导。（4）与ERA-interim土壤水分再分析数据比较得出,两者在空间格局与变化趋势上均具有较高的一致性。CERN土壤水分观测数据反映了无人为干扰的自然条件下森林土壤-植被-气候之间的反馈作用,可为基于模型的土壤水分研究提供长时序的验证数据。
