地上生物量是反映湿地植物群落数量特征和生产能力的重要因子,内陆盐沼湿地植被地上生物量空间分布格局及其水盐响应机制,对湿地生态水文学研究具有重要的理论意义。采用湿地群落学调查和支持向量回归模型（SVR）相结合的方法,将苏干湖湿地划分为山洪区、泉水区等5个分区,研究了植被地上生物量的空间异质及其影响因素。结果表明：支持向量回归模型在内陆盐沼湿地植被地上生物量反演方面具有较高的拟合精度;苏干湖不同区域湿地植物群落地上生物量空间格局呈现出复杂的空间分异规律,对地下水埋深和土壤全盐量的响应也存在明显差异：河洪区的植被地上生物量随地下水埋深、土壤全盐量的增加呈先增大后减小的趋势,湖水区的植被地上生物量与地下水埋深呈显著正相关关系,而土壤全盐量则相反,山洪区的植被地上生物量随地下水埋深的增加呈先增大后减小的趋势,泉水区的植被地上生物量随地下水埋深的增加逐渐减小,台地区的植被地上生物量与地下水埋深和土壤全盐量均无显著相关性。苏干湖湿地不同等级植被地上生物量在空间上呈现出多斑块组成的镶嵌体结构形态,体现了湿地植物应对土壤水盐等环境因子变化的生态适应机制。     

黄河三角洲典型植被与地下水埋深和土壤盐分的关系

土壤盐分和地下水埋深是影响黄河三角洲植被发育和分布的重要因素.本文通过野外调查与统计分析,研究了黄河三角洲区域典型植被(翅碱蓬 柽柳、刺槐、芦苇和棉花)、地下水埋深、土壤盐分之间的关系.结果表明: 研究区地下水埋深显著影响土壤盐分,平均影响系数为0.327,地下水埋深在0.5～1.5 m的土壤盐渍化最严重;整个研究区内植被发育较差,其中,研究区78%面积的归一化植被指数(NDVI)<0.4,地下水埋深、土壤盐分对天然植被分布有显著影响;土壤盐分对研究区翅碱蓬-柽柳、刺槐、芦苇及棉花NDVI的影响显著,地下水埋深对翅碱蓬-柽柳NDVI的影响显著,对芦苇、棉花、刺槐NDVI的影响不显著.

植物净光合速率(P_n)与叶性状的环境响应,对理解异质性生境中植物叶片物理构建与生理代谢的关系具有重要意义。采用线性回归的方法,按照芦苇种群地下水埋深和地表水水位变化规律设置:Ⅰ(地下水埋深0.3—0.6 m)、Ⅱ(地下水埋深0—0.3 m)、Ⅲ(地表水水位0—0.3 m) 3个梯度,研究了土壤水分影响下芦苇(Phragmites australias)的P_n与叶面积(LA)、叶厚度的关系。结果表明:随着土壤水分的增加,湿地植被群落的高度、盖度和地上生物量呈逐渐增大的趋势,芦苇的LA、叶片P_n呈现逐渐增加的趋势,而叶厚度呈减小趋势;在样地(Ⅰ)和样地(Ⅲ)芦苇的P_n与LA之间分别存在极显著负相关和正相关关系(P 0.01),而与叶厚度之间分别存在极显著正相关和负相关关系(P0.01);在样地(Ⅱ),芦苇的P_n与LA之间呈显著正相关关系(P0.05),与叶厚度之间仅呈显著负相关关系(P0.05)。随着土壤水分的增加,芦苇选择了增大叶面积、减小叶厚度,相应增大P_n的生存策略,体现了芦苇种群在异质生境中较强的叶片表型可塑性,从而更好地适应特殊的湿地生境。     

莫莫格湿地芦苇对水盐变化的生理生态响应

认识湿地植物对不同水盐环境的生理生态响应特征和规律,是确定湿地生态需水阈值的关键,为湿地生态需水量计算及生态恢复提供科学依据.通过对莫莫格湿地水盐环境因子与芦苇生理生态特征指标进行调查研究,并利用国际通用植被数量分析软件CANOCO4.5对其关系进行了冗余度分析(RDA).结果表明:湿地水深、Na+,HCO(3)含量3个环境因子组合对芦苇生理生态特征变异的解释量达到54.7％,说明这3个变量是影响芦苇生理生态特征变异的重要因子,水深是关键驱动因子.水深与芦苇株高、生物量、叶绿素含量、最大光化学效率Fv/FM以及光化学性能指数PIABS成显著正相关,随着水深的增加,芦苇株高、生物量以及叶绿素含量等逐渐增加.Na+含量、HCO(3)含量与芦苇生理生态特征的相关性没有达到显著水平.因此,中轻度盐碱湿地生态恢复需要重点考虑水深条件对湿地生态的影响,其次是水质( Na+/HCO(3))因素的影响作用,确保适宜生态水位,满足生态恢复需要.     

新疆塔里木河下游灌丛地上生物量及其空间分布

对塔里木河下游断流河道2004年7个地下水监测断面和19个植被样地的实测监测资料分析得出灌木生物量在空间分布的变化特征。在分析中分别选取了3个指标：灌木总生物量、多枝柽柳和刚毛柽柳的生物量。研究发现在纵向和横向上3项指标均呈现先增加后减小的单峰形式变化。在纵向上分别对3项指标在距离河道0～200m和200—400m范围内的分布情况进行比较,发现灌木在距离河道200～400m样地内分布占到总量近70％;横向上灌木生物量的最大值出现在距离河道450m的样地内。总体来看,对于两个优势物种,由于两个物种生理生态特性的差异对于异质性环境的适应能力也不同,导致分布状况也各异。多枝柽柳有较广的生态适应性,因此广泛分布于塔里木河下游的各个环境梯度上,而刚毛柽柳对水盐条件的要求较高,仅分布在其中个别断面。影响灌木生物量变化的主要因子是地下水埋深,当地下水埋深小于5m时,柽柳处于良好生长状态;当地下水埋深大于6m后,柽柳的生长受到抑制,开始朝衰败方向发展。浅层土壤含水对于植物吸收利用水分而言意义不大,同时由于优势种柽柳具有独特的抗盐和适盐机制,该区的盐分对柽柳的生长也不构成威胁。本文旨在通过分析塔里木河下游灌木生物量变化特征及其影响因子,为干旱、半干旱地区植被的恢复和保护提供了理论依据。

苏干湖湿地土壤全盐含量特征及其与地下水的关联

地下水是内陆盐沼湿地生态水文过程及演变的关键因素,地下水位埋深和水质特征交互作用影响水盐运移过程和表层土壤盐渍化程度。根据2018年8月土壤盐分与地下水特征的监测数据,运用经典统计学、皮尔逊相关性和主成分分析等方法对苏干湖湿地（93°47''53″-94°04''26″E,38°50''07″-38°56''27″N）不同水位下表层0-10 cm土壤全盐含量、地下水水质特征及其间的关系进行定量分析。结果表明：（1）研究区0-10 cm土壤全盐含量的均值为204.41 g/kg,随地下水埋深的增加,土壤全盐含量的均值、变化幅度和变异系数呈先增加后降低的趋势。（2）地下水埋深介于0.17-6 m,pH在7.06-9.56范围,阳离子以Na⁺为主,阴离子以SO₄^2-和Cl^-为主,离子浓度变异系数从强到弱依次为Na⁺ > Mg²⁺ > Ca²⁺ > Cl^- > SO₄^2- > HCO₃^- > K⁺ > CO₃^2-。（3）关联分析表明,在水埋深<1 m、1-2 m的区域表层全盐含量与地下水埋深呈正相关,地下水埋深介于2-3 m和>3 m的区域两者间呈负相关;土壤全盐含量与地下水水质离子Na⁺、Mg²⁺、SO₄^2-、Cl^-间呈极显著正相关,与K⁺、CO₃^2-、HCO₃^-间的相关系数较低且不显著。内陆盐沼湿地表层土壤全盐含量与地下水埋深、地下水水质特征的关联分析,体现了内陆盐沼湿地土壤水盐运移过程的复杂性。     

The ecological adaptability of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Phragmites australis</Emphasis> to interactive effects of water level and salt stress in the Yellow River Delta

Soil salinity and waterlogging are two major environmental problems in estuarine wetlands. To prevent the typical wetland plants from degradation by soil salinization and salt waterlogging and more effectively use the plants to provide wetland ecosystem services, we examined the ecological adaptability of Phragmites australis, a characteristic plant species in the Yellow River Delta, to the interactive effects of water level and salt stress. The results showed that P. australis adapts to salt and water table stressed environments through slowing down the growth rate, maintaining the tiller number, and adjusting the biomass allocation of different organs. The highest plant height and the largest leaf area were at 0 cm water table treatment; the 0.5 % NaCl treatment increased the aboveground biomass; higher water table increased the fibrous root biomass allocation, but largely decreased the leaf biomass. The exclusion of toxic inorganic ions such as Na⁺ and Cl^? and the accumulation of organic solutes are also important mechanisms to aid survival in saline wetlands. On average 35.1 % of Cl^? and 53.9 % of Na⁺ accumulated in belowground organs. The study could provide fundamental guidance for wetland restoration projects and wetland sustainable use in coastal zones such as the Yellow River Delta.     

Do plants modulate biomass allocation in response to petroleum pollution?

Biomass allocation is an important plant trait that responds plastically to environmental heterogeneities. However, the effects on this trait of pollutants owing to human activities remain largely unknown. In this study, we investigated the response of biomass allocation of Phragmites australis to petroleum pollution by a ¹³CO₂ pulse-labelling technique. Our data show that plant biomass significantly decreased under petroleum pollution, but the root–shoot ratio for both plant biomass and ¹³C increased with increasing petroleum concentration, suggesting that plants could increase biomass allocation to roots in petroleum-polluted soil. Furthermore, assimilated ¹³C was found to be significantly higher in soil, microbial biomass and soil respiration after soils were polluted by petroleum. These results suggested that the carbon released from roots is rapidly turned over by soil microbes under petroleum pollution. This study found that plants can modulate biomass allocation in response to petroleum pollution.     

干旱区不同草地土壤植物系统水盐的特征

 土壤水盐状况对干旱区草地植物群落的种类组成有直接的影响。本文通过3年对土壤水盐动态(1m土壤含盐量、潜水埋深和矿化度)的定位定点监测,系统地划分出水盐等级指标,并结合草地调查,阐述了不同草地类型与水盐状况的关系,将新疆呼图壁草地生态试验站天然草地划分为沼泽化低地草甸、盐化低地草甸、重盐化低地草甸、盐土荒漠和重盐土荒漠五个亚类。     

Trait‐based adaptability of Phragmites australis to the effects of soil water and salinity in the Yellow River Delta

Phragmites australis is the dominant species in the Yellow River Delta and plays an important role in wetland ecosystems. In order to evaluate the relationship between phenotypic variation and environmental factors, explore how functional traits respond to changes in electrical conductivity and soil water content, and reveal the ecological strategies of P. australis, we investigated the ecological responses of P. australis to soil properties based on 96 plots along the coastal–inland regions in the Yellow River Delta of China. Within the range of soil water content (SWC, 9.39%–36.92%) and electrical conductivity (EC, 0.14–13.29 ms/cm), the results showed that (a) the effects of salinity were more important than the soil water content for the characterization of the morphological traits and that plant functional traits including leaf traits and stem traits responded more strongly to soil salinity than soil water content; (b) compared with morphological traits such as average height and internode number, physiological traits such as SPAD value, as well as morphological traits closely related to physiological traits such as specific leaf area and leaf thickness, showed stronger stability in response to soil water and salinity; and (c) under the condition of high electrical conductivity, P. australis improved its water acquisition ability by increasing indicators such as leaf water content and leaf thickness. In addition, with the increase in plant tolerance to stress, more resources were used to resist external stress, and the survival strategy was inclined toward the stress tolerator (S) strategy. Under low EC conditions, P. australis increased specific leaf area and leaf area for its growth in order to obtain resources rapidly, while its survival strategy gradually moved toward the competitor (C) strategy.     

Contrasting water sources and water‐use efficiency in coexisting desert plants in two saline‐sodic soils in northwest China

• Soil degradation resulting from various types of salinity is a major environmental problem, especially in arid and semiarid regions. Exploring the water‐related physiological traits of halophytes is useful for understanding the mechanisms of salt tolerance. This knowledge could be used to rehabilitate degraded arid lands.
• To investigate whether different types of salinity influence the water sources and water‐use efficiency of desert plants (Karelinia caspia, Tamarix hohenackeri, Nitraria sibirica, Phragmites australis, Alhagi sparsifolia, Suaeda microphylla, Kalidium foliatum) in natural environments, we measured leaf gas exchange, leaf carbon and xylem oxygen isotope composition and soil oxygen isotope composition at neutral saline‐sodic site (NSS) and alkaline saline‐sodic site (ASS) in northwest China.
• The studied plants had different xylem water oxygen isotope compositions (δ¹⁸O) and foliar carbon isotope compositions (δ¹³C), indicating that desert plants coexist through differentiation in water use patterns. Compared to that at the NSS site, the stem water in K. caspia, A. sparsifolia and S. microphylla was depleted in ¹⁸O at the ASS site, which indicates that plants can switch to obtain water from deeper soil layers when suffering environmental stress from both salinity and alkalinisation. Alhagi sparsifolia had higher δ¹³C at the ASS site than at the NSS site, while K. caspia and S. microphylla had lower δ¹³C, which may have resulted from interspecific differences in plant alkali and salt tolerance ability.
• Our results suggest that under severe salinity and alkalinity, plants may exploit deeper soil water to avoid ion toxicity resulting from high concentrations of soluble salts in the superficial soil layer. In managed lands, it is vital to select and cultivate different salt‐tolerant or alkali‐tolerant plant species in light of local conditions.

     

河滨湿地不同植物群落根系分布特征与土壤理化性状的关系——以黄河中游荥阳段为例

在黄河中游郑州荥阳段,选择了5种河滨湿地植物群落进行根系和土壤性状特征研究,以期阐明不同植物群落的根系分布规律与土壤性状的关系,为河滨湿地植物群落组成以及土壤质量恢复提供科学参考。结果表明(1)在0—40 cm土层,根生物量密度与根长密度的平均值均表现为：芦苇群落(Phragmites australis)和芦苇-狗牙根(Cynodon dactylon)群落均大于芦苇-拂子茅(Calamagrostis epigeios)-狗牙根群落、拂子茅-狗牙根群落、拂子茅-狗牙根-水莎草(Juncellus serotinus)群落。拂子茅-狗牙根、芦苇-拂子茅-狗牙根、拂子茅-水莎草-狗牙根三种植物群落类型下根生物量密度、根长密度在0—20 cm表层土壤较大,芦苇群落和芦苇-狗牙根群落的根生物量密度、根长密度在10—40 cm的土层较大。(2)黄河河滨湿地芦苇群落、芦苇-狗牙根群落的土壤以粉粒为主,拂子茅-狗牙根群落、芦苇-拂子茅-狗牙根群落、拂子茅-狗牙根-水莎草群落的土壤主要以砂粒为主。在0—40 cm土层,芦苇群落、芦苇-狗牙根群落的土壤含水率、土壤有机质、有效氮和有效磷含量均显著高于...     

Soil salt and nutrient concentration in the rhizosphere of desert halophytes

North-West China is an arid region where halophyte plants are rich. Very little is known on the rhizospheric soil of the halophytes in this arid desert region. We conducted a rhizobag experiment on the desert Solonchak soil to investigate the salt and nutrient content in the rhizospheric soil of the desert halophytes. The total salt and the concentrations of 8 major kinds of salt ions increased in the rhizosphere of both succulent halophytes and salt secreting halophytes, but this increase was insignificant for salt-resisting halophytes. Accumulation of Cl^– and Na⁺ is the most significant among the 8 major kinds of salt ions. Accumulation of Cl^– was more significant than that of SO₄^2– in succulent halophytes and salt secreting halophytes. The Na⁺/K⁺, Na⁺/Ca²⁺ and Na⁺/Mg²⁺ ratios in the rhizosphere of all 7 kinds of halophytes were higher than those in the bulk soil. Total N increased significantly in the rhizosphere, but total P and total K decreased. However, the available N, P and K in the rhizosphere of the 7 kinds of halophytes except Phragmites communis Trin. behaved in such an opposite way that available N decreased but available P and available K increased. The ionic contents in the aboveground parts were higher than those in the underground parts of the 7 kinds of halophytes, in particular of both the succulent halophytes and the salt secreting halophytes. Accumulation of Cl^– and Na⁺ in the aboveground parts of the plants was the most significant among that of the 8 major kinds of salt ions.     

Effects of alternate flooding–drought conditions on degenerated Phragmites australis salt marsh in Northeast China

The hydrological regime is the dominant factor associated with the degradation and restoration of inland salt marshes in Northeast China. This study investigates whether alternate flooding–drought conditions could be used to actively restore degraded inland salt marshes with the native plant Phragmites australis. Pot experiments were designed to examine changes in the growth and physiology of P. australis, as well as the saline–alkaline soil characteristics, in response to different hydrological regimes, alternate flooding–drought treatments, and single treatments of moisture, flooding, and drought. After 4 months of treatments, the P. australis population that grew in alternate flooding–drought conditions exhibited substantially more biomass accumulation and less Na⁺ absorption compared with the single treatments of moisture, flooding, and drought. Photosynthesis physiology served as regulating and adaptive responses to different water regimes, with increased values after the short‐term flooding, long‐term drought, and flooding–drought cycles. In addition, the saline–alkaline soil properties changed in response to the flooding–drought cycles. The flooding–drought cycles increased organic matter and total nitrogen contents, but decreased pH, electrical conductivity, and saline ion levels. Plant growth and saline–alkaline soil were improved by flooding–drought cycles (not drought–flooding cycles), which suggests that this may be an effective approach for restoration inland salt marshes.
