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。     

杉木人工林不同深度土壤CO2通量

土壤CO₂通量具有明显的时间和空间变异性。土壤温度和含水量是影响土壤CO₂通量的重要因素,同时,不同深度的土壤CO₂通量对温度和含水量变化的响应差异较大,因此,研究土壤CO₂通量和影响因素随土壤深度的变化,对于准确评估土壤碳排放具有重要意义。选择福建三明杉木人工林(Cunninghamia lanceolata)作为研究对象,利用非散射红外CO₂浓度探头和Li-8100开路式土壤碳通量系统,并使用Fick扩散法计算了0-60cm深度土壤CO₂的通量,结果表明:(1)5种扩散模型计算的表层(5cm)CO₂通量与Li-8100测量结果均具有显著相关性(P<0.01),Moldrup气体扩散模型计算结果较好。(2)土壤CO₂浓度随深度的增加而升高,但60cm深度以下土壤CO₂浓度开始降低;不同深度土壤CO₂浓度的日变化均呈现单峰型;0-60cm土壤CO₂通量日通量均值变化范围为0.54-2.17μmol m^-2 s^-1;(3)指数拟合分析显示,5、10cm和60cm深度处土壤CO₂通量与温度具有显著相关性,Q₁₀值分别为1.35、2.01和4.95。不同深度土壤含水量与CO₂通量的相关性不显著。

若尔盖高原沼泽湿地CO2排放时空变化特征

为了更好理解若尔盖高原不同微生境下沼泽湿地生态系统CO₂排放通量的变化特征,以若尔盖高原湿地自然保护区为研究对象,2013和2014年生长季期间,采用了静态箱和快速温室气体法原位观测了3种湿地5种微生境下沼泽湿地CO₂排放通量时空变化规律。结果表明：长期淹水微地貌草丘区湿地（PHK）和洼地区湿地（PHW） CO₂排放通量变化范围分别为38.99-1731.74 mg m^-2 h^-1和46.69-335.22 mg m^-2 h^-1,季节性淹水区微地貌草丘区湿地（SHK）和洼地区湿地（SHW） CO₂排放通量变化范围分别为193.90-2575.60 mg m^-2 h^-1和49.93-1467.45 mg m^-2 h^-1,而两者过渡区的无淹水区沼泽湿地（Lawn） CO₂排放通量变化范围194.20-898.75 mg m^-2 h^-1。相关性分析表明5种微地貌区沼泽湿地CO₂排放通量季节性变化与不同深度土壤温度均存在显著正相关,与水位存在显著负相关（PHW、SHW、SHK、Lawn）或不相关（PHK）,并且水位和温度（5 cm）共同解释了CO₂排放通量季节性变化的87%。3种湿地5种微生境下沼泽湿地CO₂排放通量存在空间变化规律,主要受水位影响,但植物也影响沼泽湿地CO₂排放通量空间变化规律,并且表明沼泽湿地CO₂排放通量与水位平均值存在显著负相关。     

甘南地区二氧化碳施肥效应对生态系统的影响

陆地生态系统是全球第二大碳库,其碳收支一直是气候变化研究的热点领域,而研究二氧化碳（CO₂）施肥效应又是全球变化碳循环领域较为关注的前沿部分。CO₂与生态系统关系复杂,当前仍无法厘清CO₂对陆地生态系统碳循环的影响作用。基于太阳辐射数据、气温数据及归一化植被指数数据等,利用光能利用率遥感模型,模拟2019年甘南地区的碳循环,选取三个指标,即GPP （陆地生态系统总初级生产力）、NPP （净初级生产力）和NEP （净生态系统生产力）来分析甘南地区植被固碳的时空变化特征及CO₂施肥效应。结果表明：（1）甘南地区2019年植被固碳总量约为2611 tC。甘南地区生态系统GPP、NPP和NEP季节性特征明显,其值均在夏季达到最高;而在空间上,GPP、NPP表现为东高西低的特征,NEP呈现出北高南低的分布特征。（2） CO₂对GPP、NPP存在正向的施肥效应,分别增加了14.4%和14.3%;而对NEP具有负向反馈效应,使其减少了0.3%,并且CO₂对NEP的影响整体也表现为北高南低的特征。研究揭示出：虽然CO₂在提升GPP和NPP时,正向的施肥效应明显,但是对甘南地区的NEP,即固碳量来说,CO₂的影响却很有限。因此在研究CO₂施肥效应时不应一概而论,生态地理环境对其的影响不可忽视。研究可以为揭示陆地生态系统碳循环的动态机制提供一定的理论依据。     

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。

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。     

华北平原冬小麦田土壤胞外/内酶活性对长期CO2浓度升高的响应

针对农田胞外和胞内酶活性响应CO₂浓度升高认识不足的现状,依托华北平原冬小麦种植区北京昌平试验站长期开放式CO₂富集平台,设置常规和升高两组CO₂浓度处理,研究冬小麦田土壤胞外和胞内酶活性的变化及影响因素。结果表明:CO₂浓度升高促进胞外碳获取酶活性,不影响胞外氮获取酶活性以及全部胞内酶活性。通过量化碳、氮获取酶的胞外胞内比发现,CO₂浓度升高在冬小麦成熟期增强了碳获取酶胞外胞内比,但降低了氮获取酶胞外胞内比。胞外碳、氮获取酶活性都与土壤pH值呈负相关;而胞内碳获取酶活性与土壤含水量正相关,胞内氮获取酶活性与微生物生物量负相关。CO₂浓度升高导致上述大部分酶活性变化驱动因素的作用消失,仅存在土壤全氮与胞内碳获取酶活性负相关。研究结果强调了对胞内酶开展研究的重要性,为理解土壤过程对全球变化因素的响应提供了新见解。     

Microbial Growth under Supercritical CO2

Growth of microorganisms in environments containing CO₂ above its critical point is unexpected due to a combination of deleterious effects, including cytoplasmic acidification and membrane destabilization. Thus, supercritical CO₂ (scCO₂) is generally regarded as a sterilizing agent. We report isolation of bacteria from three sites targeted for geologic carbon dioxide sequestration (GCS) that are capable of growth in pressurized bioreactors containing scCO₂. Analysis of 16S rRNA genes from scCO₂ enrichment cultures revealed microbial assemblages of varied complexity, including representatives of the genus Bacillus. Propagation of enrichment cultures under scCO₂ headspace led to isolation of six strains corresponding to Bacillus cereus, Bacillus subterraneus, Bacillus amyloliquefaciens, Bacillus safensis, and Bacillus megaterium. Isolates are spore-forming, facultative anaerobes and capable of germination and growth under an scCO₂ headspace. In addition to these isolates, several Bacillus type strains grew under scCO₂, suggesting that this may be a shared feature of spore-forming Bacillus spp. Our results provide direct evidence of microbial activity at the interface between scCO₂ and an aqueous phase. Since microbial activity can influence the key mechanisms for permanent storage of sequestered CO₂ (i.e., structural, residual, solubility, and mineral trapping), our work suggests that during GCS microorganisms may grow and catalyze biological reactions that influence the fate and transport of CO₂ in the deep subsurface.     

Non-phototrophic CO 2 fixation by soil microorganisms

Although soils are generally known to be a net source of CO₂ due to microbial respiration, CO₂ fixation may also be an important process. The non-phototrophic fixation of CO₂ was investigated in a tracer experiment with ¹⁴CO₂ in order to obtain information about the extent and the mechanisms of this process. Soils were incubated for up to 91 days in the dark. In three independent incubation experiments, a significant transfer of radioactivity from ¹⁴CO₂ to soil organic matter was observed. The process was related to microbial activity and could be enhanced by the addition of readily available substrates such as acetate. CO₂ fixation exhibited biphasic kinetics and was linearly related to respiration during the first phase of incubation (about 20–40 days). The fixation amounted to 3–5% of the net respiration. After this phase, the CO₂ fixation decreased to 1–2% of the respiration. The amount of carbon fixed by an agricultural soil corresponded to 0.05% of the organic carbon present in the soil at the beginning of the experiment, and virtually all of the fixed CO₂ was converted to organic compounds. Many autotrophic and heterotrophic biochemical processes result in the fixation of CO₂. However, the enhancement of the fixation by addition of readily available substrates and the linear correlation with respiration suggested that the process is mainly driven by aerobic heterotrophic microorganisms. We conclude that heterotrophic CO₂ fixation represents a significant factor of microbial activity in soils.     

Molecular simulation of swelling and structure for Na-Wyoming montmorillonite in supercritical CO2

Gibbs ensemble Monte Carlo (GEMC) simulations were used to study the swelling stability and interlayer structures of Na-montmorillonite clay in supercritical CO₂ (scCO₂). From the GEMC simulation, it was found that there exist several stable mechanical spacings for Na-Wyoming montmorillonite immersed in scCO₂, which are larger than the stable spacing in vacuum condition. The swelling behaviour of Na-montmorillonite clay in scCO₂ fluid is thermodynamically favourable. However, it was also observed that the clay swelling is inhibited when in contact with CO₂ gas at atmospheric pressure. The interlayer structures were applied to investigate the mechanism of swelling. In the case of stable spacings, the interlayer sodium cations are not only well solvated with the surrounding CO₂ molecules but also show stronger tendency to adhere to the clay surface.     

The Impact of Indigenous Microorganisms on the Mineral Corrosion and Mineral Trapping in the SO2 Co-injected CO2-Saline-Sandstone Interaction

The impact of indigenous microorganisms on the mineral corrosion and mineral trapping in the SO₂ co-injected CO₂-saline-sandstone interaction was investigated in this study by lab experiments under 55?°C, 15?M pa. The results verified that co-injection of SO₂ resulted in a decrease in biomass and shifts in microbial communities within 90?days, but some microorganisms still could adapt to acidic, high-temperature, high-pressure, and high-salinity environments. Firmicutes and Proteobacteria remained dominant phylum, but phylum Proteobacteria showed better tolerance to the co-injection of SO₂ in the initial period. In the SO₂ co-injected CO₂-saline-sandstone interaction under microbial mediation, acid-producing bacteria further promoted the corrosion of K-feldspar, albite, and clay minerals, meanwhile mobilizing more K⁺, Na⁺, Ca²⁺, Mg²⁺ into solution. The acidogenic effect may be linked to the dominant genus of Bacillus, Paenibacillus, Acinetobacter, Pseudomonas and Exiguobacterium. Co-injection of SO₂ inhibited the carbonates capture, while microbial acid production further reduced the pH, further inhibiting carbonates capture. As a result, no secondary carbonate (e.g., calcite) was observed on a short time scale within 90?days. So, microbial acidogenic effect was not conducive to carbonates capture in short term.     

Carbon dynamics and microbial activity in tallgrass prairie exposed to elevated CO2 for 8 years

Alterations in microbial mineralization and nutrient cycling may control the long-term response of ecosystems to elevated CO₂. Because micro-organisms constitute a labile fraction of potentially available N and are regulators of decomposition, an understanding of microbial activity and microbial biomass is crucial. Tallgrass prairie was exposed to twice ambient CO₂ for 8 years beginning in 1989. Starting in 1991 and ending in 1996, soil samples from 0 to 5 and 5 to 15 cm depths were taken for measurement of microbial biomass C and N, total C and N, microbial activity, inorganic N and soil water content. Because of increased water-use-efficiency by plants, soil water content was consistently and significantly greater in elevated CO₂ compared to ambient treatments. Soil microbial biomass C and N tended to be greater under elevated CO₂ than ambient CO₂ in the 5–15 cm depth during most years, and in the month of October, when analyzed over the entire study period. Microbial activity was significantly greater at both depths in elevated CO₂ than ambient conditions for most years. During dry periods, the greater water content of the surface 5 cm soil in the elevated CO₂ treatments increased microbial activity relative to the ambient CO₂ conditions. The increase in microbial activity under elevated CO₂ in the 5–15 cm layer was not correlated with differences in soil water contents, but may have been related to increases in soil C inputs from enhanced root growth and possibly greater root exudation. Total soil C and N in the surface 15 cm were, after 8 years, significantly greater under elevated CO₂ than ambient CO₂. Our results suggest that decomposition is enhanced under elevated CO₂ compared with ambient CO₂, but that inputs of C are greater than the decomposition rates. Soil C sequestration in tallgrass prairie and other drought-prone grassland systems is, therefore, considered plausible as atmospheric CO₂ increases. This revised version was published online in June 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Effect of carbon dioxide concentration on microbial respiration in soil

In order to assess the validity of conventional methods for measuring CO₂ flux from soil, the relationship between soil microbial respiration and ambient CO₂ concentration was studied using an open-flow infra-red gas analyser (IRGA) method. Andosol from an upland field in central Japan was used as a soil sample. Soil microbial respiration activity was depressed with the increase of CO₂ concentration in ventilated air from 0 to 1000 ppmv. At 1000 ppmv, the respiration rate was less than half of that at 0 ppmv. Thus, it is likely that soil respiration rate is overestimated by the alkali absorption method, because CO₂ concentration in the absorption chamber is much lower than the normal level. Metabolic responses to CO₂ concentration were different among groups of soil microorganisms. The bacteria actinomycetes group cultivated on agar medium showed a more sensitive response to the CO₂ concentration than the filamentous fungi group.     

异养微生物固定CO2的合成生物学研究进展

人类活动造成大气二氧化碳（CO₂）浓度不断升高,使当今世界面临着气候变化的重大危机。微生物CO₂固定为实现地球“碳中和”提供了一条有前景的绿色发展路线。与自养微生物相比,异养微生物具有更快的生长速度和更先进的遗传工具,但是其固定CO₂的能力还很有限。近年来,基于合成生物学技术强化异养微生物CO₂固定受到诸多关注,主要包括优化能量供给、改造羧化途径以及基于异养微生物间接固定CO₂。本综述将围绕上述3个方面重点讨论异养微生物CO₂固定的研究进展,为将来更好地利用微生物CO₂固定技术实现“碳达峰、碳中和”提供参考。     

The impact of long-term elevated CO2 on C and N retention in stable SOM pools

Elevated atmospheric CO₂ frequently increases plant production and concomitant soil C inputs, which may cause additional soil C sequestration. However, whether the increase in plant production and additional soil C sequestration under elevated CO₂ can be sustained in the long-term is unclear. One approach to study C–N interactions under elevated CO₂ is provided by a theoretical framework that centers on the concept of progressive nitrogen limitation (PNL). The PNL concept hinges on the idea that N becomes less available with time under elevated CO₂. One possible mechanism underlying this reduction in N availability is that N is retained in long-lived soil organic matter (SOM), thereby limiting plant production and the potential for soil C sequestration. The long-term nature of the PNL concept necessitates the testing of mechanisms in field experiments exposed to elevated CO₂ over long periods of time. The impact of elevated CO₂ and ¹⁵N fertilization on L. perenne and T. repens monocultures has been studied in the Swiss FACE experiment for ten consecutive years. We applied a biological fractionation technique using long-term incubations with repetitive leaching to determine how elevated CO₂ affects the accumulation of N and C into more stable SOM pools. Elevated CO₂ significantly stimulated retention of fertilizer-N in the stable pools of the soils covered with L. perenne receiving low and high N fertilization rates by 18 and 22%, respectively, and by 45% in the soils covered by T. repens receiving the low N fertilization rate. However, elevated CO₂ did not significantly increase stable soil C formation. The increase in N retention under elevated CO₂ provides direct evidence that elevated CO₂ increases stable N formation as proposed by the PNL concept. In the Swiss FACE experiment, however, plant production increased under elevated CO₂, indicating that the additional N supply through fertilization prohibited PNL for plant production at this site. Therefore, it remains unresolved why elevated CO₂ did not increase labile and stable C accumulation in these systems.     

高浓度CO2对树木生理生态的影响研究进展

大气CO2浓度升高已成为世界范围内的重要环境问题。CO2浓度升高势必会对植物的生理生态变化产生重要影响。综述了国内外有关高浓度CO2对树木生理生态影响研究的最新进展,具体包括高浓度CO2对树木生长发育、光合和呼吸作用、抗氧化系统、树木代谢物质、挥发性有机化合物以及树木凋落物等方面的影响。高浓度CO2一般会促进树木地上植株的生长和发育,但也因树种差异而有所不同。最新研究表明,高浓度CO2促进了树木细根周转,树木根系生长在大气CO2浓度升高条件下表现为促进作用,这种作用加快了全球森林生态系统的C循环。高浓度CO2虽然在一定程度上促进树木光合速率的增加,但长期熏蒸也往往会发生光合驯化,这种现象产生的生理学机制目前仍无定论。高浓度CO2对树木呼吸作用尤其是根系呼吸的影响将是未来研究的重点和难点。高浓度CO2一般会提高树木抗氧化酶活性与抗氧化剂含量,但不同树种响应高浓度CO2的过程和机理也有所差异。研究表明,高浓度CO2一般对树木凋落物的分解产生不利影响,但也因树种而异。需要强调的是,目前关于树木地下部分、树木对高浓度CO2的适应机理和重要过程(碳氮水耦合及基因调控等)以及多个树种包括不同类型树种及不同品种之间比较研究较少;关于某一重要生理生态机制(如根系生理代谢)尤其是多个生态因子复合条件下缺乏长期深入的研究。在此基础上给出了大气CO2浓度升高下树木生理生态学研究的未来发展方向,包括高CO2浓度条件下树木根系生理代谢及机制、树木碳氮水耦合的生理过程及机制、不同生态因子复合作用对树木生理影响机制以及树木分子作用机理等方面的研究。这些研究不仅将丰富森林树木应对未来气候变化的有关科学理论,也为全球气候变化背景下实现森林树种生态功能的优化选择及森林生态系统的可持续发展与经营提供重要的生理生态学理论依据和参考。     

中国森林面积变化及其温室气体储量模拟研究

陆地生态系统承载的温室气体对全球碳循环及气候调节服务意义重大,森林生态系统是陆地生态系统的重要组成部分,量化森林对温室气体的储量有利于从生物地球化学角度研究全球变化问题。针对中国森林生态系统承载的温室气体在大尺度上无法有效量化的问题,基于2000与2010年两期土地利用数据和前人的相关研究,通过一个生态系统温室气体值模型,模拟得到中国森林生态系统承载的三大主要温室气体(CO_2,CH_4,N_2O)的量。结果表明:(1)中国森林生态系统的面积从2000年的224.3×10~6 hm~2略增到2010的224.6×10~6 hm~2;其中落叶阔叶林、常绿阔叶林和针叶林的面积减少,而混交林与灌木林的面积增加;(2)对应地,2000和2010年中国森林的温室气体储量分别为154.03和154.37 Pg CO_2当量,10年间增加了0.34 Pg CO_2当量。其中,常绿针叶林、常绿阔叶林、落叶阔叶林在研究时段内的GHG储量减少,而混交林和灌木林增加。分区来看,温室气体储量增长较多的区域有华北、西北与西南地区,分别增长了0.13 Pg CO_2、0.12 Pg CO_2与0.15 Pg CO_2当量。温室气体储量减少较明显的是东北地区,减少了约0.1 Pg CO_2当量。本研究分别用本地化参数和模型自带参数,首次尝试对中国森林生态系统的GHG储量进行了模拟研究,并与他人的研究做了对比分析。研究同时发现,当前的相关研究存在很多不确定性,未来需要多源数据和方法提升精度,而模型模拟是一个重要的手段。
