鄱阳湖湿地土壤水稳定同位素变化特征

土壤水稳定同位素组成的时空变化反映了区域降水与前期水分的混合及蒸散发过程。2013年7-9月对鄱阳湖湿地保护区3个断面不同土地覆盖下0-2 m剖面土壤水进行分层采样,以及采集修水和贛江的河水,测定其氢、氧稳定同位素,分析土壤水稳定同位素沿土壤剖面的变化规律、土壤水运动机制及其主要补给来源。研究结果表明,鄱阳湖采样区3个断面土壤水同位素δ~(18)O值变化范围-10.63‰—-1.17‰,其中7月份的土壤水δ~(18)O均值最小,8、9月份土壤水δ~(18)O均值相对较大。表层(0-60 cm)土壤水同位素富集可能因为蒸发作用,深层土壤水同位素组成变化因降水入渗与前期水分混合作用。不同土地覆盖表层土壤水同位素变化较大,随着深度的增加,同位素变化减少。从水分溯源上,断面一的土壤水同位素组成主要受降水的影响,断面二的土壤水同位素组成主要受赣江和降水的影响,而断面三则主要受鄱阳湖水体和降水的影响。研究结果可为鄱阳湖区域地下水资源的评价提供参考     

干旱区包气带土壤水分运移能量关系及驱动力研究评述

包气带土壤能量和水分平衡及其驱动因子是维系地下水-土壤-植物-大气连续体(GSPAC)系统中水分运移发生的关键因素。在降水稀少、水资源短缺的干旱地区,开展包气带土壤水分形态、运移过程与能量的耦合规律研究对揭示区域水资源形成和转化机理具有极其重要的现实意义。文章总结了土壤水分运移理论研究进展,探讨了水分参与水文循环过程及干旱环境下土壤水分可能表现形态及其降雨入渗、再分布、渗漏、蒸发、毛管水上升等过程驱动机制,评述了包气带土壤水分与能量过程在不同空间尺度上生态水分效应。在一个非饱和土壤系统中,水分运移受包气带结构,土壤物理特征,植物根系和土壤生化环境的综合控制,物质和能量平衡改变是驱动水分循环的源动力,而土壤环境变化是导致水分运移形态的发生变化根本原因。因此,在气候变化背景下,研究干旱区土壤与大气界面以及包气带与饱和带界面水、汽、热耦合转化形式与能量驱动过程,能够提升我们对包气带土壤水分运移规律机理的深入理解,丰富对区域气候和水文变化认知。为干旱区生态植被恢复建设和水资源精细化管理提供理论向导。     

腾格里沙漠东南缘人工植被区降水入渗与再分配规律研究

试验于2001年8月17日至9月30日在中国科学院沙坡头沙漠试验研究站进行,主要利用时域反射仪(TDR)连续测量土壤剖面水分含量的方法,观测受植物根系吸水,蒸散作用影响下的人工植被荒漠灌木柠条(Caragana korshinskii)群落区固定沙丘降水入渗与再分配过程。土壤体积含水率由水平埋设在植物根系剖面内12个深度层次(5～200cm)的时域反射仪探头每小时自动测定1次。天然降水条件下的土壤入渗速率由入渗深度与相应的入渗时间之比值计算得到。结果表明：在7次不连续降水过程中,土壤入渗速率与降水强度呈简单线性相关关系,土壤入渗速率约为降水强度的10倍强。然而当次降水过程中降水强度小于0．46mm／h时,土壤入渗速率约为0cm／h,此时的降水对人工植被固定沙丘区的土壤基本上没有水分补给作用。受荒漠灌木柠条根系吸水作用的影响,其根系密集剖面深度40～140cm内降水水分入渗积累不明显。降水入渗速率及入渗深度受土壤剖面初始含水率多寡而变化,干燥土壤剖面有助于提高入渗速率及入渗深度。降水以后随着时间的推移,区域环境内空气温度、湿度等气象条件适宜,柠条生长进入相对旺盛阶段,其根系密集层140cm深度处土壤含水率在总体上下降的过程中,表现出昼消夜长的趋势,翌日8：00土壤含水率值略高于前一日20：00水分值0．1％～0．3vol．％。     

油蒿灌丛群落浅层土壤水分对不同降雨格局的响应

以库布齐沙漠东缘典型分布的油蒿灌丛为对象,使用微气象观测系统连续监测2016—2018年生长季降雨及多层次土壤含水量(0～10、10～30、30～50 cm),研究不同降雨格局下荒漠土壤水分的时空动态变化,分析降雨事件对土壤水分的补给作用和水分入渗特征。结果表明: 油蒿灌丛浅层土壤含水量在降雨脉动下产生明显的季节和垂直变化,雨量和雨前土壤含水量是影响土壤水分补给和入渗的主控因素。0～10 cm土层土壤对降雨反馈迅速,>3.8 mm降雨对该层产生补给作用;10～30 cm土层土壤对降雨反馈稍显迟滞,需8.6 mm以上降雨才能产生有效补给;30～50 cm土层土壤对降雨反馈更加滞后,降雨量超过11.8 mm后才能达到该补给深度。水分入渗速率随雨量增大而升高,随土层加深而减弱,入渗深度与雨量和雨前土壤含水量均呈显著正相关。研究期间,降雨事件以<10 mm降雨为主,占总降雨次数的78.4%,降雨对土壤的补给主要作用于30 cm以内土层,对深层土壤的补给十分有限,不利于深根性植物生长,降雨格局直接影响和改变了研究区植物群落的构成、分布和演替。     

宽窄行栽植模式下三倍体毛白杨根系分布特征及其与根系吸水的关系

采用剖面法对宽窄行栽植模式下三倍体毛白杨(triploid Populus tomentosa)的根系分布特征进行了研究;采用管式TDR系统对土壤剖面含水率变化动态进行了连续观测,并据此计算林木根系吸水速率,以探讨土壤含水率、根系分布和根系吸水分布之间的相关关系。研究结果表明:毛白杨的总平均根长密度在林带两侧和不同径向距离处非常接近(P>0.05);但在不同土层间变化很大(P<0.01),其中0-20和60-150 cm土层为根系主要分布区域,其根系所占比例共达86%;不同径阶间的根长密度差异显著(P<0.01),且其比例关系会随空间位置的改变而发生变化。不同栽植方位下,林带东侧毛白杨根系分布的浅层化程度高于西侧,且在径向240-280 cm内其0-0.5 mm的极细根显著多于西侧(P<0.05)。因此,宽窄行栽植模式下,深度和径阶是毛白杨根系分布的主要影响因子,而栽植方位会对其形态构型产生影响。毛白杨根系吸水模式受细根分布的影响,但会随土壤剖面水分有效性分布的变化而变化:当表土层水分有效性增加时,根系吸水主要集中在表土层;当表土层水分有效性降低时,深层土壤根系的吸水贡献率会逐渐增加;当土壤剖面水分条件异质性较高时,根系吸水主要集中在根系密度与水分有效性均较高的区域;当土壤剖面水分分布均匀且不存在水分胁迫时,根系吸水分布与细根分布最为一致。     

内蒙古西鄂尔多斯荒漠区降水入渗氘同位素特征

探讨我国干旱半干旱地区大气降水在土壤剖面中的时空分布特征将为西鄂尔多斯荒漠退化生态系统恢复和维持提供科学依据.本研究利用氘同位素技术研究了内蒙古西鄂尔多斯荒漠的大气降水、土壤水、地下水中的氘同位素值(δD),运用二元线性混合模型计算降水对各层土壤水的贡献率,并结合土壤含水量分析了不同降水条件下土壤剖面各层土壤水δD的时空分布特征.结果表明: 雨后9 d内,小雨(0～10 mm)影响0～10 cm土壤含水量和土壤水δD值,对表层土壤(0～10 cm)的贡献率在30.3%～87.9%;中雨(10～20 mm)影响0～40 cm土壤含水量和土壤水δD值,对0～40 cm土壤水的贡献率为28.2%～80.8%;大雨(20～30 mm)和特大暴雨(＞30 mm)影响0～100 cm土壤含水量和土壤水δD值.降水对100～150 cm深层土壤水δD值影响不显著.西鄂尔多斯荒漠土壤水δD介于大气降水δD与地下水δD之间,表明西鄂尔多斯荒漠土壤水主要来源于大气降水与地下水.在同一降水强度下,表层土壤水(0～10 cm)受降水的直接影响显著,随着土壤深度的增加,土壤水δD变化幅度降低,100～150 cm深层土壤水δD基本趋于稳定.降水强度越大,对土壤水δD影响的时间越长,影响的土壤深度也越深.     

绿洲边缘夹粘沙丘持水特性

夹粘沙丘是指剖面中分布有一层红褐色粘化层的沙丘,其夹粘层埋藏深度常在120—500cm左右,厚度在40—100cm之间,粘粉粒含量达到90%以上。夹粘沙丘人工梭梭固沙植被郁闭度在0.5以上,明显高于相同水热条件下的植被生产力,这可能与夹粘层通过改变土壤持水性及水分状况,从而提高了土壤水分承载力有关。以河西走廊绿洲边缘夹粘沙丘为研究对象,在测定0—8.0m剖面土壤物理性质和土壤水分特征曲线的基础上,计算了土壤孔隙分布和持水特性,研究了剖面中土壤持水性的变化规律及其影响因素。结果表明:(1)夹粘层土壤含水量最高,上覆沙土土壤含水量最少且随深度增加而增加,下伏沙土受地下水毛管作用影响水分含量较高;(2)土壤机械组成决定了不同土层的持水特性,土壤中粘粉粒含量越高,田间持水量和饱和含水量就越大,夹粘层的土壤持水性远高于沙土层;(3)夹粘层是沙丘土壤水分暂时贮存的重要土层,可以为植被提供深层土壤水分,这对绿洲边缘人工固沙植被的生存和繁衍有重要影响,而土壤持水性和毛管作用的强弱决定了夹粘层对沙丘水分调节能力的强弱。本研究为深入理解绿洲边缘雨养固沙植被斑块状分布的机理提供了一定的理论依据。     

高寒内陆河流域植被覆盖增加对地下水补给的影响

地下水是干旱区内陆河流域的主要基础性资源,对流域生态安全、可持续发展等具有重要意义。干旱/半干旱区的地下水补给比湿润地区更易受到地表覆盖条件的影响。为揭示干旱区内陆河流域植被覆盖增加对地下水补给的影响,以巴音河中下游为例,针对土壤和水评价工具(SWAT)模型未有效考虑降水、地形等因素对植被覆盖影响的缺陷,改进SWAT模型,采用全球地表卫星叶面积指数(GLASS LAI)数据代替其LAI计算模块,再结合SWAT土地利用更新模块,准确刻画区域植被覆盖变化。将改进后的SWAT模型与模块化有限拆分地下水流耦合(MODFLOW)模型耦合,准确模拟并分析植被覆盖增加对流域地下水补给的影响。结果表明：基于植被动态变化的土壤和水评价工具与模块化有限拆分地下水流耦合模型(DVSWAT-MODFLOW)模型的月蒸散发及月地下水位模拟效果较好;巴音河中下游2019年林地及草地面积以及LAI较2001年明显增加;2019年植被覆盖情况对应的年际及月际尺度地下水补给量较2001年分别减少了6.1—26.52 mm以及0—15.03 mm;植被覆盖增加对年际尺度地下水补给量的影响强弱在一定程度上取决于年降水量,对...     

黄土地区不同覆被下土壤无机碳分布及同位素组成特征

土壤无机碳在剖面上的分布在评估区域碳库储量、陆地碳循环以及全球变化的研究中具有重要作用.本文通过测定黄土地区不同植被类型覆盖下土壤pH值、碳酸盐含量、δ13C和δ18O值,探讨了黄土地区植被类型对碳酸盐在土壤剖面中分布和同位素组成特征的影响.结果表明:各剖面碳酸盐含量为5.7％ ～ 14.1％,其均值大小为荒地＞草地＞林地;林地中,阔叶林＞灌木林＞针叶林,针叶林变化最明显;受成土母质影响,各剖面土壤pH值在7～8,呈弱碱性;土壤碳酸盐δ13C值分布为-6.2‰～-1.8‰,各剖面δ13C均值大小为荒地＞灌木林＞针叶林＞草地＞阔叶林;植被类型主要是通过向土壤输入有机质来影响土壤无机碳同位素组成;不同覆被下土壤剖面碳酸盐δ18O值差异明显,其可能受土壤物理性质如孔隙度、湿度等影响;黄土地区不同覆被下土壤无机碳含量和δ13C、δ18O值明显不同,因此,在植被演替过程中,植被类型的改变会影响到土壤无机碳库的储量和区域碳循环过程.     

土壤类型和地下水埋深对黄河三角洲典型盐沼植物群落空间分异的影响

目前对黄河口盐沼和贝壳堤盐沼植被带状分布序列分异的水盐耦合机制仍不清楚。为了更好地保护与利用黄河三角洲典型盐沼生态系统,本研究以黄河三角洲7种常见植物组成的群落为研究对象,采用温室模拟控制实验,探究了两种常见土壤类型(贝壳砂土壤和滨海潮土)和8个地下水埋深水平(10 cm、20 cm、30 cm、40 cm、50 cm、60 cm、70 cm和80 cm)对实验群落特征和表层土壤物理特性的影响。结果表明:(1)与滨海潮土相比,贝壳砂土壤能维持更高的植物丰富度和Shannon-Wiener多样性,植物丰富度在贝壳砂土壤随着地下水埋深的增加呈单峰变化,而在滨海潮土无显著变化;(2)随地下水埋深的增加,贝壳砂土壤植物群落由盐生群落逐步变为中旱生植物群落类型,而滨海潮土始终为盐生植物群落类型;(3)贝壳砂土壤表层含水量显著低于滨海潮土,随着地下水埋深的增加,贝壳砂土壤表层含水量呈“凹”型变化,而滨海潮土表层含水量呈线性递减变化;(4)滨海潮土表层含盐量显著高于贝壳砂土壤,随着地下水埋深的增加,贝壳砂土壤表层含盐量呈双峰变化,而滨海潮土无明显变化。综上所述,不同土壤类型和地下水埋深决定了不同的水...     

Soil water dynamics and vegetation patterns in a semiarid grassland

Long-term (1985–1992) dynamics and spatial variations in soil water below the evaporative zone were evaluated for a shortgrass steppe with a low and variable precipitation regime. Each of a sandy loam, clay loam, and two sandy clay loam sites comprised a toposequence with upland, midslope and lowland positions. Soil water was monitored at 15 cm intervals providing estimates covering 22.5 to 97.5 cm depths.Soil water throughout the profile was highest in the clay loam site and lowest in the sandy loam site. However, stored soil water did not vary systematically among slope positions. Total vegetation cover was highest on the lowland in two sites, but was greatest on the midslope position in the other two. Total vegetation cover was greatest on the CL site, which was the wettest in terms of soil water. Soil water depletion was related to the depth-distribution of roots. There was an inverse relationship between aboveground production and soil water content of the 30, 45 and 60 cm layers during the growth period. Root distributions through the profile did not, however, vary with soil texture or with different soil water profiles controlled by texture. The less variable water content of deeper soil layers is a resource which potentially buffers the impact of pronounced variability in precipitation and thus contributes to vegetation stability of the shortgrass community.     

The influence of soil texture on the soil water dynamics and vegetation structure of a shortgrass steppe ecosystem

We analyzed soil water data from three sites with different soil textures in the shortgrass steppe of northeastern Colorado, USA. Our objective was to evaluate the relationship between the occurrence of plant functional types and the effect of soil texture on soil water availability. Soil water availability was greatest in the upper soil layers at all three sites, but the loamy sand site had significantly greater soil water availability than the sandy clay loam and sandy clay sites in wetter years at depths below 60 cm. Calculations of proportional water availability by layer using both field data and fifty-year soil water model simulations, showed that the sandy clay loam and sandy clay soils on average had greater water availability in layers 30 cm and above, but that the loamy sand had the greatest water availability in layers beneath this, particularly at 105 cm. This observation can be linked to the occurrence of a fine textured subsoil at this site. The textural pattern in the loamy sand profile effectively creates two water resources: a shallow pool accessible to all plants; and a deep pool accessible only to deep-rooted plants. This is offered as an explanation for the co-dominance of the two main plant functional types at the loamy sand site. At the other two sites, shallow-rooted shortgrass vegetation dominated, being more consistent with the general pattern for the area. Thus the patterns of vegetation structure at the three sites were consistent with the hypothesis. Aboveground net primary production data for the three sites, along with transpiration estimates from the model simulations, indicated that the additional water availability in the coarse textured soil was associated with higher overall plant productivity.Nomenclature: Taxonomic nomenclature follows R.

毛乌素沙地沙丘土壤含水量特点——兼论老固定沙地上油蒿衰退原因

土壤表面干沙层在冬春少雨季节较厚,流动沙地的又明显地大于固和地的。流动沙地地表干沙层以下的土壤含水量一般在于同深化度固定沙地的,特别是在报系密集分布的土层。科季或早春土壤含水量比较低,雨季的明显较高,雨季结束后,土层中的水分在重力的作用下会向深层运动,导致根系层土壤含水量下降。在植物生长季,缺少降雨时,因少地的土土壤水量会因植物的蒸腾消耗而变得很低（１％～２％）,而流动沙地的不受或受此影响很小。地     

Leaching and transformation of urea in dry and wet soils as affected by irrigation water

Summary The leaching losses of urea in dry and wet soils as affected by the irrigation water, were studied in 90 cm long and 5 cm diameter plexiglass columns. In dry sandy loam soil urea leached with irrigation water and peaks of urea were observed with water front but in sandy soil the wetting front moved faster leaving the urea peak behind. In initially wet soils the urea peak did not coincide the wetting front, following infiltration and after redistribution for 24 hours of infiltration. More urea was recovered in sandy soil than in sandy loam soil following infiltration and redistribution for 24 hours. Urea leached only upto 30 cm with 5 and 7.5 cm irrigation water whereas with 10 and 15 cm irrigation water profiles urea penetrated to deeper layers. The sub-surface application of urea did not change the leaching behaviour of urea. Urea behaves as a non-reacting ion like Cl with respect to its movement with soil-water before it is hydrolysed.     

Transport of a genetically engineered Pseudomonas fluorescens strain through a soil microcosm.

Vertical soil microcosms flushed with groundwater were used to study the influence of water movement on survival and transport of a genetically engineered Pseudomonas fluorescens C5t strain through a loamy sand and a loam soil. Transport of cells introduced into the top 1 cm of the vertical soil microcosms was dependent on the flow rate of water and the number of times microcosms were flushed with groundwater. The presence of wheat roots growing downward in the microcosms contributed only slightly to the movement of P. fluorescens C5t cells to lower soil regions of the loamy sand microcosms, but enhanced downward transport in the loam microcosms. Furthermore, the introduced P. fluorescens C5t cells were detected in the effluent water samples even after three flushes of groundwater and 10 days of incubation. As evidenced by a comparison of counts from immunofluorescence and selective plating, nonculturable C5t cells occurred in day 10 soil and percolated water samples, primarily of the loamy sand microcosms. Vertical soil microcosms that use water movement may be useful in studying the survival and transport of genetically engineered bacteria in soil under a variety of conditions prior to field testing.

Climate sensitivity of soil water regime of different Hungarian Chernozem soil subtypes

In this study the possible effects of two predicted climate change scenarios on soil water regime of Hungarian Calcic Chernozem soils has been investigated. Soil profiles classified as Calcic Chernozem — in total 49 — were selected from the MARTHA soil physical database that incorporates soil data at national scale. These profiles were subdivided into three groups (sandy loam, loam and clayey loam) in accordance with their mechanical composition. Soil water retention curves were scaled separately for each of the three textural groups, using similar media scaling in order to represent the variability of soil hydrophysical data with one parameter, the scaling factor (SF). Reference soil profiles were chosen according to the cumulative distribution function of the scaling factor, six for each textural group. Daily downscaled meteorological data from A2 and B2 climate scenarios of the Hadley Centre (2070–2100) and data from a reference period (RF, 1961–1990) were used in this study to characterize different climatic situations. Nine representative years were selected in case of all the three scenarios, using the cumulative probability function of the annual precipitation sum. Scenario analyses were performed, validating the SWAP soil water balance simulation model for the 18 reference soil profiles and 27 representative years in order to evaluate the expected changes in soil water regime under different from the present (RF) climatic conditions (A2 and B2 scenarios). Our results show that the scaling factor could be used as a climate sensitivity indicator of soil water regime. The large climate sensitivity of the majority of Chernozem soil subtypes water regime has been proven.     

沙障对流动沙丘区地表节肢动物分布及多样性的影响

沙障作为人工固沙植被恢复与保护绿洲和道路安全的一种手段,可以有效阻止沙丘移动,改变流动沙丘地表生态水文过程,进而影响节肢动物多样性及营养结构及功能变化。鉴于此,选取临泽县中部沙带为研究区,利用陷阱法系统调查了生物、物理沙障和流动沙丘区沙丘不同部位地表节肢动物分布及多样性。研究结果表明,沙障营建强烈影响了流动沙丘区地表节肢动物组成,生物和物理沙障区地表节肢动物的活动密度、物种丰富度及多样性均显著高于流动沙丘区,捕食性和其它食性节肢动物较植食性节肢动物对沙障营建的响应更为敏感。沙障还改变了沙丘地表节肢动物的分布规律,生物和物理沙障区地表节肢动物的活动密度从沙丘底部到顶部依次增加,而流动沙丘区地表节肢动物主要分布在沙丘中下部。谢氏宽漠王和尖尾东鳖甲在流动沙丘区主要分布沙丘的中下部,沙障营建导致沙丘顶部谢氏宽漠王和尖尾东鳖甲的活动密度大幅提高。此外,研究还发现生物和物理沙障对地表节肢动物的影响不同,生物沙障区地表节肢动物活动密度显著高于物理沙障区,捕食性和东鳖甲属等其它食性节肢动物的活动密度在生物沙障区均高于物理沙障区。总之,沙障营建及类型差异强烈影响地表节肢动物的分布及多样性,它通过资源上行效应和土壤物理环境的改变提高了地表节肢动物的多样性及营养结构,从而影响了土壤生态系统结构及功能变化过程。     

Effect of Soil Texture on the Distribution and Infectivity of Neoaplectana glaseri (Nematoda: Steinernematidae)

The vertical migration of infective juveniles of Neoaplectana glaseri applied to the soil surface or introduced 16 cm below the soil surface was studied in pure silica sand, coarse sandy loam, silty clay loam, and clay. The number of juveniles that migrated and infected wax moth pupae placed in the soil decreased as the proportion of clay and silt increased. The majority of nematodes moved downwards 2-6 cm from the surface, but some penetrated to a depth of 14 cm in pure silica sand and coarse sandy loam. In pure silica sand and coarse sandy loam, nematodes introduced 16 cm below the soil surface were able to infect wax moth pupae located at depths of 0-4 cm and 28-32 cm. Nematodes showed a greater tendency to disperse downwards from the point of application. Movement of the nematode was least in clay soil and limited in silty clay loam soil. The number of migrating nematodes was greatest when wax moth pupae were present.
