择伐对阔叶红松林碳密度和净初级生产力的影响

准确量化森林碳密度和净初级生产力(NPP)对于评价森林生态系统在全球碳循环中的作用至关重要.本研究以小兴安岭原始阔叶红松林和择伐(择伐强度30%,择伐对象为大径级红松)34年后的阔叶红松林为对象,采用样地清查和异速生长方程法测定了不同林分的碳密度和NPP.结果表明: 原始林和择伐林的碳密度总量分别为(397.95±93.82)和(355.61±59.37) t C·hm^-2,其中植被碳密度、碎屑碳密度、土壤碳密度分别占总碳库的31.0%、3.1%、65.9%和31.7%、2.9%、65.4%,两者的总碳密度和各组分的分配比例均无显著差异. 原始林和择伐林的NPP总量分别为(6.27±0.36 )和(6.35±0.70) t C·hm^-2·a^-1,乔木层、灌木和草本层、细根所占比例分别为60.3%、2.0%、37.7%和66.1%、2.0%、31.2%,两者的总NPP和各组分的贡献率均无显著差异.而原始林和择伐林中针、阔叶的NPP比例分别为4724∶52.76和20.48∶79.52,两者差异显著.择伐34年后阔叶红松林的碳密度和NPP均达到了择伐前水平.

Effects of selective cutting on the carbon density and net primary productivity of a mixed broadleaved-Korean pine forest in Northeast China.

To accurately quantify forest carbon density and net primary productivity (NPP) is of great significance in estimating the role of forest ecosystems in global carbon cycle. By using the forest inventory and allometry approaches, this paper measured the carbon density and NPP of the virgin broadleaved-Korean pine (Pinus koraiensis) forest and of the broadleaved-Korean pine forest after 34 years selective cutting (the cutting intensity was 30%, and the cutting trees were in large diameter class). The total carbon density of the virgin and selective cutting broadleaved-Korean pine forests was (397.95±93.82) and (355.61±59.37) t C·hm-2, respectively. In the virgin forest, the carbon density of the vegetation, debris, and soil accounted for 31.0%, 3.1%, and 65.9% of the total carbon pool, respectively; in the selective cutting forest, the corresponding values were 31.7%, 2.9%, and 65.4%, respectively. No significant differences were observed in the total carbon density and the carbon density of each component between the two forests. The total NPP of the virgin and selective cutting forests was (36.27±0.36) and (6.35±0.70) t C·hm-2·a-1, among which, the NPP of overstory, understory, and fine roots in virgin forest and selective cutting forest accounted for 60.3%, 2.0%, and 37.7%, and 66.1%, 2.0%, and 31.2%, resp〖JP2〗ectively. No significant differences were observed in the total NPP and the contribution rate of each component between the two forests. However, the ratios of the needle and broadleaf NPPs of the virgin and selective cutting forests were 47.24:52.76 and 20.48:79.52, respectively, with a significant difference. The results indicated that the carbon density and NPP of the broadleaved-Korean pine forest after 34 years selective-cutting recovered to the levels of the virgin broadleaved-Korean pine forest.
