Changes in CH4 and CO2 emissions from soils under flooded conditions after being exposed to FACE (free-air CO2 enrichment) for three years

To evaluate the variations of CO₂ and CH₄ emissions from FACE (free-air CO₂ enrichment, F) soils three years after rice-wheat rotation FACE treatment, incubation experiments in the laboratory with laboratory and elevated CO₂ concentration (1000 μl L?1) were carried out under flooded conditions at 25°C. Results show that soil organic carbon is increased by 11% after exposure to FACE treatment for three years. The results indicate that at laboratory and elevated CO₂, the cumulative CO₂ emissions from FACE soils are 35% and 22% higher than those from the ambient soils, whereas the cumulative CH₄ emissions from FACE soils are 2.6 and 2.3 times that of ambient soils. Thus, there is a larger ratio of cumulative emissions of CH₄ to CO₂ in the soil F. The elevated CO₂ concentration during the incubation stimulates the cumulative CO₂ emission significantly, but its stimulation on CH₄ emission is not statistically significant. The results indicate that the elevated atmospheric CO₂ concentration stimulates the turnover rates of soil organic matter, with a net increase in soil organic matter content, and alters the CH₄/CO₂ ratio.     

Na2CO3胁迫下星星草幼苗活性氧及保护酶活性的变化

对低浓度Na₂CO₃胁迫下星星草幼苗相对电导率、O^-₂产生速率、H₂O₂含量以及保护酶CAT、SOD和POD活性的研究结果表明,低盐胁迫1 d后,星星草幼苗细胞膜的通透性、O^-₂产生速率、H₂O₂含量及保护酶活性都随着盐胁迫的加剧而升高,其具体的变化规律与盐胁迫强度和幼苗细胞膜的受损伤程度密切相关,但相关关系的性质上具有差异。     

Effects of increased atmospheric CO2 on nutritional contents in poplar (Populus pseudo-simonii [Kitag.]) tissues and larval growth of gypsy moth (Lymantria dispar)

Changes in the concentrations of phytochemical compounds usually occur when plants are grown under elevated atmospheric CO₂. CO₂-induced changes in foliar chemistry tend to reduce leaf quality and may further affect insect herbivores. Increased atmospheric CO₂ also has a potential influence on decomposition because it causes variations in chemical components of plant tissues. To investigate the effects of increased atmospheric CO₂ on the nutritional contents of tree tissues and the activities of leaf-chewing forest insects, samples of Populus pseudo-simonii [Kitag.] grown in open-top chambers under ambient and elevated CO₂ (650 μmol mol^-1) conditions were collected for measuring concentrations of carbon, nitrogen, C : N ratio, soluble sugar and starch in leaves, barks, coarse roots (>2 mm in diameter) and fine roots (<2 mm in diameter). Gypsy moth (Lymantria dispar) larvae were reared on a single branch of experimental trees in a nylon bag with 1 mm 1 mm grid. The response of larval growth was observed in situ. Elevated CO₂ resulted in significant reduction in nitrogen concentration and increase in C : N ratio of all poplar tissues. In all tissues, total carbon contents were not affected by CO₂ treatments. Soluble sugar and nonstructural carbohydrate (TNC) in the poplar leaves significantly increased with CO₂ enrichment, whereas starch concentration increased only on partial sampling dates. Carbohydrate concentration in roots and barks was generally not affected by elevated CO₂, whereas soluble sugar contents in fine roots decreased in response to elevated CO₂. When second instar gypsy moth larvae consuming poplars grew under elevated CO₂ for the first 13 days, their body weight was 30.95% lower than that of larvae grown at ambient CO₂, but no significant difference was found when larvae were fed in the same treatment for the next 11 days. Elevated atmospheric CO₂ had adverse effects on the nutritional quality of Populus pseudo-simonii [Kitag.] tissues and the resultant variations in foliar chemical components had a significant but negative effect on the growth of early instar gypsy moth larvae.     

高寒矮嵩草草甸冬季CO2释放特征

冬季碳排放在高寒草地年内碳平衡中占有重要位置。为探讨高寒草地冬季碳排放特征及温度敏感性,于2003-2005年在中国科学院海北高寒草甸生态系统研究站,利用密闭箱-气相色谱法连续观测了高寒矮嵩草草甸2个冬季的生态系统、土壤呼吸通量特征。结果表明:1)高寒矮嵩草草甸冬季生态系统呼吸、土壤呼吸均具有明显的日变化和季节变化规律,温度是其主要的控制因子,能够解释44%以上的呼吸速率变异。2)冬季生态系统呼吸与土壤呼吸速率在统计上没有显著差异,土壤呼吸占生态系统呼吸的比例高达85%以上。3)2003-2004年冬季生态系统呼吸、土壤呼吸的Q₁₀值分别为1.53,1.38;2004-2005年冬季生态系统呼吸与土壤呼吸的Q₁₀值为1.86,1.68,2个冬季生态系统呼吸的Q₁₀值均高于土壤呼吸。4)未发现高寒矮嵩草草甸冷冬年份的Q₁₀值高于暖冬年份以及冬季的Q₁₀值高于生长季。     

外源氮对沼泽湿地CH4和N2O通量的影响

三江平原沼泽湿地受到大气沉降、地表径流、农业排水等外源氮素的输入,对湿地生态系统CH₄和N₂O通量有重要影响。采用野外原位施肥试验模拟外源氮输入,设0,60,120,240kgN•hm^-2 4种试验处理,探讨外源氮对沼泽湿地CH₄和N₂O通量的影响。结果表明,外源氮促进了CH₄和N₂O排放。与对照处理比较,各施氮水平CH₄平均排放通量分别增加了181％,254％和155％,N2O排放通量分别增加了21％,100％和533％。外源氮输入对CH₄排放的季节变化形式影响不大,而N²O的季节变化形式随着氮输入表现出波动变化的趋势。不同施氮水平对CH₄排放的促进作用与植物生长阶段和产CH₄的微生物过程密切相关,N₂O排放通量随氮输入量呈指数增加（R²＝0.97,p<0.01）。外源氮通过影响湿地微生物过程来进一步影响CH₄和N₂O的排放。     

地质封存CO2泄漏对玉米根系形态的影响

碳捕集与封存（Carbon Capture and Storage,CCS）是应对全球气候变化、实现煤炭清洁利用的有效手段之一,但是地质封存的CO₂存在泄漏的风险,可能对农田生态系统产生重大威胁,影响我国粮食安全。根系生长是地上部和地下部相互作用、相互促进的统一过程,其形态特征对作物生产力有显著影响,但CCS泄漏对植物根系的影响评估尚不多见。本文以玉米为研究对象,采用盆栽底部通入CO₂的方法模拟不同CO₂泄漏情景,研究CK（0 g m^-2 d^-1）和G1000（1000 g m^-2 d^-1）和G2000（2000 g m^-2 d^-1）三种泄漏情景下CO₂对玉米根系形态的影响。结果表明：CO₂泄漏对玉米根系形态有明显的影响,随着泄漏量的增大总根长从40290.81 cm减少至21448.18 cm,减少46.77%,其中细根大幅减少;CO₂泄漏造成玉米明显减产,最大减产率达26.64%;玉米的地上部生物量较地下部生物量对CO₂泄漏更加敏感。综合来看,随着CO₂泄漏量增大,对玉米根的生长、地上部生物量、地下部生物量以及产量有显著的抑制作用。作物根系形态对封存CO₂泄漏的响应可为CCS泄漏监测和生态修复提供系统科学依据。     

Aquaporins and membrane diffusion of CO2 in living organisms

Background

Determination of CO₂ diffusion rates in living cells revealed inconsistencies with existing models about the mechanisms of membrane gas transport. Mainly, these discrepancies exist in the determined CO₂ diffusion rates of bio-membranes, which were orders of magnitudes below those for pure lipid bilayers or theoretical considerations as well as in the observation that membrane insertion of specific aquaporins was rescuing high CO₂ transport rates. This effect was confirmed by functional aquaporin protein analysis in heterologous expression systems as well as in bacteria, plants and partly in mammals.

Scope of Review

This review summarizes the arguments in favor of and against aquaporin facilitated membrane diffusion of CO₂ and reports about its importance for the physiology of living organisms.

Major Conclusions

Most likely, the aquaporin tetramer forming an additional fifth pore is required for CO₂ diffusion facilitation. Aquaporin tetramer formation, membrane integration and disintegration could provide a mechanism for regulation of cellular CO₂ exchange. The physiological importance of aquaporin mediated CO₂ membrane diffusion could be shown for plants and cyanobacteria and partly for mammals.

General Significance

Taking the mentioned results into account, consequences for our current picture of cell membrane transport emerge. It appears that in some or many instances, membranes might not be as permeable as it was suggested by current bio-membrane models, opening an additional way of controlling the cellular influx or efflux of volatile substances like CO₂.

神农架主要森林土壤CH4、CO2和N2O排放对降水减少的响应

研究降水格局改变后森林土壤温室气体排放格局,可为森林温室气体排放清单制定提供科学依据。以神农架典型森林类型常绿落叶阔叶混交林和2种人工林马尾松和杉木林为研究对象,研究了降水格局改变后,其土壤CH_4吸收、CO_2和N_2O的排放格局和可能机制。结果表明:常绿落叶阔叶混交林吸收CH_4通量为(-36.79±13.99)μg Cm~(-2)h~(-1),显著大于马尾松和杉木两种人工林的CH_4吸收通量,其吸收通量分别为(-14.10±3.38)μg Cm~(-2)h~(-1)和(-7.75±2.80)μg Cm~(-2)h~(-1)。马尾松和杉木两种人工林CO_2排放通量分别为(107.03±12.11)μg Cm~(-2)h~(-1)和(80.82±10.29)μg Cm~(-2)h~(-1),显著大于常绿落叶阔叶混交林(71.27±10.59)μg Cm~(-2)h~(-1)。常绿落叶阔叶混交林N_2O排放通量为(8.88±6.75)μg Nm~(-2)h~(-1),显著大于杉木人工林(5.93±2.79)μg Nm~(-2)h~(-1)和马尾松人工林(1.64±1.02)μg Nm~(-2)h~(-1)。分析3种森林土壤CH_4吸收量与其环境因子之间的关系发现,常绿落叶阔叶混交林的CH_4吸收通量与其土壤温度呈现显著的指数负相关关系(P0.01)。常绿落叶阔叶混交林、马尾松林和杉木林的土壤CO_2排放通量与其空气温度和土壤温度之间均呈现显著的指数正相关关系(P0.01)。常绿落叶阔叶混交林和马尾松林土壤N_2O排放通量与空气温度之间均呈现显著的指数正相关关系(P0.01),而马尾松林与土壤温度之间呈显著正相关(P0.05),与土壤湿度之间均无显著相关。降水减半后,减少降水对常绿落叶阔叶混交林和马尾松林土壤CH_4吸收通量均具有明显的促进作用,但对杉木林土壤CH_4吸收量具有抑制作用,对常绿落叶阔叶混交林和杉木林土壤CO_2平均排放通量均具有明显的促进作用,而对马尾松林土壤CO_2平均排放通量明显抑制作用,对常绿落叶阔叶混交林、马尾松和杉木林土壤N_2O排放量具有明显的抑制作用。     

Hyperpnoea and CO2 sensitivity of the respiratory centres during exercise

The aim of this study was to specify whether exercise hyperpnoea was related to the CO2 sensitivity of the respiratory centres measured during steady-state exercise of mild intensity. Thus, ventilation (VE), breathing pattern [tidal volume (VT), respiratory frequency (f), inspiratory time (TI), total time of the respiratory cycle (TTOT), VT/TI, TI/TTOT] and CO2 sensitivity of the respiratory centres determined by the rebreathing method were measured at rest (SCO2re) and during steady-state exercise (SCO2ex) of mild intensity [CO2 output (VCO2) = 20 ml.kg-1.min-1] in 11 sedentary male subjects (aged 20-34 years). The results showed that SCO2re and SCO2ex were not significantly different. During exercise, there was no correlation between VE and SCO2ex and, for the same VCO2, all subjects had very close VE values normalized for body mass (bm), regardless of their SCO2ex (VEbm0.75 = 1.44 l.min-1.kg-1 SD 0.10). A highly significant positive correlation between SCO2ex and VT (normalised for bm) (r = 0.80, P less than 0.01), TI (r = 0.77, P less than 0.01) and TTOT (r = 0.77, P less than 0.01) existed, as well as a highly significant negative correlation between SCO2ex and (normalised for bm-0.25) (r = -0.73, P less than 0.01). We conclude that the hyperpnoea during steady-state exercise of mild intensity is not related to the SCO2ex. The relationship between breathing pattern and SCO2ex suggests that the breathing pattern could influence the determination of the SCO2ex. This finding needs further investigation.     

温带针阔混交林土壤碳氮气体通量的主控因子与耦合关系

中高纬度森林地区由于气候条件变化剧烈,土壤温室气体排放量的估算存在很大的不确定性,并且不同碳氮气体通量的主控因子与耦合关系尚不明确。以长白山温带针阔混交林为研究对象,采用静态箱-气相色谱法连续4a(2005—2009年)测定土壤二氧化碳(CO2)、甲烷(CH4)和氧化亚氮(N2O)净交换通量以及温度、水分等相关环境因子。研究结果表明:温带针阔混交林土壤整体上表现为CO2和N2O的排放源和CH4的吸收汇。土壤CH4、CO2和N2O通量的年均值分别为-1.3 kg CH4hm-2a-1、15102.2 kg CO2hm-2a-1和6.13 kg N2O hm-2a-1。土壤CO2通量呈现明显的季节性规律,主要受土壤温度的影响,水分次之;土壤CH4通量的季节变化不明显,与土壤水分显著正相关;土壤N2O通量季节变化与土壤CO2通量相似,与土壤水分、温度显著正相关。土壤CO2通量和CH4通量不存在任何类型的耦合关系,与N2O通量也不存在耦合关系;土壤CH4和N2O通量之间表现为消长型耦合关系。这项研究显示温带针阔混交林土壤碳氮气体通量主要受环境因子驱动,不同气体通量产生与消耗之间存在复杂的耦合关系,下一步研究需要深入探讨环境变化对其耦合关系的影响以及内在的生物驱动机制。     

Solution-mediated syntheses and characterizations of two new zincophosphites [C6H14N2]0.5[Zn(H2PO3)2] and [C4H12N2]0.5[(CH3)2NH2][Zn2(HPO3)3]

Two new zincophosphites [C₆H₁₄N₂]_0.5[Zn(H₂PO₃)₂] 1 and [C₄H₁₂N₂]_0.5[(CH₃)₂NH₂][Zn₂(HPO₃)₃] 2 have been solvothermally synthesized in mixed solvents of N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) and 1,4-dioxane (DOA), respectively. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that compound 1 exhibits a neutral inorganic chain formed by ZnO₄ and HPO₂(OH) units. Interestingly, the left- and right-handed hydrogen-bonded helical chains are alternately formed via the hydrogen-bonds between two adjacent chains. Compound 2 exhibits a layer structure with 4- and 12-MRs formed by ZnO₄ and HPO₃ units, in which two kinds of organic amine molecules both act as countercations to compensate the overall negative electrostatic charge of the anionic network.     

Effects of increased atmospheric CO2 on nutritional contents in poplar (Populus pseudo-simonii [Kitag.]) tissues and larval growth of gypsy moth (Lymantria dispar)

不同水位管理对恢复泥炭地土壤CO2、CH4排放的影响

泥炭地水文条件影响泥炭地生物地球化学循环,控制和维持着泥炭地生态系统的结构和功能,是泥炭地生态恢复的重要前提。然而,目前关于恢复泥炭地土壤碳排放对不同水位的响应尚不明确。以长白山区天然（NP）、退耕（DP）及实施不同水文管理的恢复泥炭地（低水位（LR）、高水位（HR）与高低交替水位（H-LR））为研究对象,采用静态箱-气相色谱法对研究区泥炭地进行生长季（6-10月）土壤CO₂、CH₄排放监测。结果表明：温度和水位变化是研究区泥炭地土壤CO₂、CH₄排放季节变化的主控因子。H-LR受水位控制的影响,生长季土壤CO₂排放速率波动剧烈,其它水位管理恢复区土壤CO₂排放速率呈单峰型排放模式,且均与近地表温度呈指数相关（P<0.05）。除HR外,土壤CO₂排放速率与水位呈显著负相关（P<0.05）。生长季,研究区HR土壤CH₄排放速率呈双峰型,H-LR与NP的土壤CH₄排放呈单峰型,与近地表温度呈指数相关（P<0.05）,LR水位与CH₄排放速率显著正相关（P<0.05）。研究区不同水位管理恢复泥炭地土壤碳排放差异显著,虽然HR的土壤CO₂-C累积碳排放量显著低于其它水位恢复区,但其土壤CH₄-C累积碳排放量和综合增温潜势显著高于其它水位恢复区（P<0.05）。LR的累积碳排放量显著低于退化泥炭地,且其综合增温潜势最低。因此,建议在泥炭地恢复初期将低水位管理作为短期策略,以更好地恢复泥炭地碳汇功能,减弱其增温潜势。     

遮光对杉木幼苗树干表面CO2通量的影响

树干表面CO_2通量是森林生态系统碳收支的重要组成部分,对全球碳平衡产生重要影响。近年来,全球变化导致植物光合产物供应发生改变,这将影响树干表面CO_2通量。然而,关于光合产物供应如何影响树干表面CO_2通量的机理仍不清楚。以盆栽杉木(Cunninghamia lanceolata)幼苗为研究对象,采用遮光方法减少光合产物供应,通过自制呼吸气室,使用Li-8100测定树干表面CO_2通量,并结合树干可溶性糖、淀粉和非结构性碳及树干温度等数据分析遮光对树干表面CO_2通量的影响。结果表明:遮光后树干可溶性糖、淀粉和非结构性碳含量分别显著下降了55.0%、78.9%和64.3%。遮光处理阶段树干表面CO_2通量平均下降39.9%,且下降幅度随着遮光时间的延长而增加;此外,遮光降低了树干表面CO_2通量的温度敏感性。恢复光照后,树干表面CO_2通量、树干可溶性糖、淀粉和非结构性碳含量以及树干温度均恢复至对照水平。可见,光合产物供应变化对树干表面CO_2通量具有调控作用,而且能够通过调控树干表面CO_2通量对温度变化的响应对全球碳循环产生重要影响。     

城市小型景观水体CO2与CH4排放特征及影响因素

淡水生态系统被认为是大气温室气体排放的重要来源,尤其在人类活动影响下,其排放强度可能进一步增强。城市小型景观水体是城市生态系统的重要组成,具有面积小、数量大以及人类干扰强的特征,其温室气体排放特征及影响因素尚不清楚。选择重庆市大学城8个景观水体和周边2个自然水体为对象,于2019年1、4、7、10月,利用漂浮箱和顶空法分析了水体CO₂与CH₄的溶存浓度及排放通量,旨在揭示城市小型景观水体CO₂与CH₄排放强度、时空变异特征以及影响因素。结果表明,10个小型水体CO₂、CH₄的溶存浓度范围分别为10.75-116.25 μmol/L和0.09-3.61 μmol/L（均值分别为（47.6±29.3）μmol/L、（1.13±0.56）μmol/L）,均为过饱和状态;漂浮箱法实测的8个景观水体CO₂和CH₄排放通量均值分别为（72.7±65.9）mmol m^-2 d^-1和（2.31±3.48）mmol m^-2 d^-1（顶空法估算值为（69.7±82.0）mmol m^-2 d^-1和（3.69±2.92）mmol m^-2 d^-1）,是2个自然水体的3.5-6.1和2.0-4.5倍,呈较强的CO₂、CH₄排放源;居民区景观水体CO₂和CH₄排放略高于校园区,均显著高于对照的自然水体;CO₂排放夏季最高,秋季次之,冬、春季最低,CH₄呈夏季>秋季≈春季>冬季的季节模式,温度和水体初级生产共同影响CO₂和CH₄排放的季节模式;水生植物分布对景观水体CO₂、CH₄排放有显著影响,有植物分布的水域比无植物水域平均高1.97和2.94倍;漂浮箱法和顶空法测得气体通量线性关系较好,但顶空法测得CO₂通量在春季明显偏低,而CH₄则普遍偏高。相关分析表明,景观水体碳、氮浓度、pH值以及DO等对CO₂排放具有较好的指示性,CH₄排放通量主要与水体中碳、磷浓度有关。城市小型景观水体CO₂、CH₄排放通量远高于大部分已有自然水体的研究结果,呈一种较强的大气温室气体排放源,在区域淡水系统温室气体排放清单中具有重要贡献,未来研究中应给以更多关注。     

C4作物FACE(free-air CO2 enrichment)研究进展

持续迅速上升的大气二氧化碳浓度([CO₂])是全球变暖最大的驱动因子,但其作为光合作用底物直接增加了作物的生产力。相比C₃作物,人们对未来高浓度CO₂情形下C₄作物的响应规律认识较少。与封闭或半封闭气室研究相比,FACE(free-air CO₂ enrichment)试验在空气自由流动的大田条件下对作物表现进行研究,它提供了对未来作物生长环境的真实模拟,因此提供了评估CO₂肥料效应以及揭示植物响应机制的最好机会。作为人类重要的粮食和饲料来源,高粱和玉米是最重要的C₄作物。在简介美国玉米和高粱FACE系统的基础上,综述了FACE情形下高浓度CO₂(模拟本世纪中叶大气CO₂浓度,即550 μmol/mol)对两大作物生理、生长和产量以及土壤特性等方面的影响,同时比较了与气室研究结果的异同点。(1)FACE使干旱条件下两作物光合作用显著增强,但湿润条件下没有影响;FACE条件下高粱出现光合适应现象,而玉米没有;(2)FACE使两作物气孔导度大幅下降,导致叶温升高、蒸腾速率下降、蒸发蒸腾总量减少或没有变化、叶片总水势和水分利用效率增加或没有变化;(3)FACE对两作物物候期和化学组分影响很少;(4)FACE使干旱条件下两作物生长和产量略有增加,但湿润条件下没有影响;(5)FACE使高粱田土壤丛枝状菌根真菌的长度和易提取胶状物质浓度显著增加,导致水稳性土壤团聚体增加;FACE对高粱田N₂O或含氮气体(N₂O+N₂)的排放没有影响;(6)高浓度CO₂对两作物气孔导度的影响FACE试验明显大于气室试验,而对生长和产量的影响呈相反趋势。阐明CO₂与基因型、土壤湿度和大气温度间的互作效应及其机制是下一轮C₄作物FACE研究优先考虑的方向,技术的不断进步已为利用大型FACE系统来研究这些互作效应提供了可能。     

Gas exchange of Ginkgo biloba leaves at different CO2 concentration levels

One and a half year-old Ginkgo saplings were grown for 2 years in 7 litre pots with medium fertile soil at ambient air CO₂ concentration and at 700 μmol mol⁻¹ CO₂ in temperature and humidity-controlled cabinets standing in the field. In the middle of the 2nd season of CO₂ enrichment, CO₂ exchange and transpiration in response to CO₂ concentration was measured with a mini-cuvette system. In addition, the same measurements were conducted in the crown of one 60-year-old tree in the field. Number of leaves/tree was enhanced by elevated CO₂ and specific leaf area decreased significantly.CO₂ compensation points were reached at 75–84 μmol mol⁻¹ CO₂. Gas exchange of Ginkgo saplings reacted more intensively upon CO₂ than those of the adult Ginkgo. On an average, stomatal conductance decreased by 30% as CO₂ concentration increased from 30 to 1000 μmol mol⁻¹ CO₂. Water use efficiency of net photosynthesis was positively correlated with CO₂ concentration levels. Saturation of net photosynthesis and lowest level of stomatal conductance was reached by the leaves of Ginkgo saplings at >1000 μmol mol⁻¹ CO₂. Acclimation of leaf net CO₂ assimilation to the elevated CO₂ concentration at growth occurred after 2 years of exposure. Maximum of net CO₂ assimilation was 56% higher at ambient air CO₂ concentration than at 700 μmol mol⁻¹ CO₂.     

土壤CO2及岩溶碳循环影响因素综述

全球碳循环已成为全球气候变化的核心问题之一,岩溶作用对大气CO2浓度的调节以及其与土壤CO2的密切关系也受到了国内外普遍关注。岩溶作用消耗土壤CO2对大气碳库起到了重要的减源作用,对土壤CO2进行研究将有利于进一步揭示岩溶碳循环过程。因此从气候条件、土壤理化性质、土地利用类型等方面综述了土壤CO2的影响因素以及其对岩溶碳循环的影响,并提出其它酸参与到岩溶碳循环中将会减弱岩溶碳汇效应。由于各个因素之间往往相互联系,共同影响土壤CO2和岩溶碳循环,在研究岩溶碳汇时,需以地球系统科学和岩溶动力系统理论为指导,综合考虑大气圈、水圈、岩石圈、生物圈中各种因素的影响。
