海南东北部4 种典型人工林土壤化学性质研究

选取大叶相思、木麻黄、桉树和湿加松四个海南东北部沿海平原地带典型的人工林树种进行土壤取样和分析,研究土壤pH 值、有机质、全氮、碱解氮、全磷、速效磷、全钾和速效钾以及有机碳和全氮的比值(C/N 比)在四种类型林分中的差异, 同时对不同深度的土壤养分进行比较分析。结果显示该区森林土壤呈强酸性, 土壤有机质含量低、土壤碱解氮、有效磷和速效钾均处于中度到中度贫瘠的水平。由于小枝单宁含量高, 阻碍木麻黄凋落物分解和养分归还进行, 除有效磷外, 其它土壤养分元素含量均低于另外三种类型人工林, 过熟阶段的桉树林的有机质、全氮、C/N比高于其他三种林分。除了桉树林土壤C/N 比外, 土壤养分含量随土层深度增加总体上表现为不断减少的趋势, 最后本研究给出提高土壤质量的一些经营建议。     

马尾松人工林林分密度对林下植被及土壤性质的影响

采用样方调查及取样分析方法,研究广西大青山南亚热带不同密度马尾松人工林林下植被及土壤特征.结果表明:马尾松人工林自然发育14 a后,林分密度从1050 株·hm^-2增加到1800株·hm^-2,林下灌木层物种多样性指数增高.密度为1800 株·hm^-2时,多样性指数最高.当林分密度继续增大到2250 株·hm^-2,灌木层物种多样性指数却呈降低趋势.林下草本物种多样性指数对林分密度变化的响应不敏感;在林分密度影响下,林下灌木生物量与灌木层物种多样性指数变化规律一致.随着林分密度的增大,林下草本生物量呈降低趋势;不同密度马尾松人工林土壤理化特性差异显著(P<0.05).除全K、速效K和速效P外,土壤表层(0～20 cm)养分含量与林下灌木层物种多样性指数变化趋势一致.不同密度林地速效K和速效P含量变化波动较大.密度为2100 株·hm^-2的林分土壤 全P含量较高.中密度(1800 株·hm^-2)林地的土壤持水量和孔隙度均较高,土壤容重较低.     

氮磷添加和栽植密度对大叶相思林土壤微生物群落功能多样性的影响

土壤微生物群落是土壤质量潜在的生态指标,在维持生态系统功能和服务中起着关键的作用。采用Biolog-ECO微平板法,探讨氮磷添加与不同栽植密度交互对大叶相思林(Acacia auriculiformis)土壤微生物功能多样性的影响,以便为建立合理的林分密度和氮磷施肥模式,提高土壤质量提供理论参考。以大叶相思林为研究对象,选择氯化铵(NH4Cl)作为氮肥模拟大气氮沉降,用二水合磷酸二氢钠(NaH2PO4·2H2O)进行磷添加。氮磷处理设置4个水平,即CK、施N、施P和施N+P。种植密度设置4个水平,即1667、2500、4444、10000株/hm²(分别以低密度、中密度、较高密度、高密度表示)。研究结果表明,施P显著提高了4个密度大叶相思林土壤微生物的AWCD值、碳源利用丰富度指数、McIntosh指数、Shannon指数和Simpson指数,而施N和N+P则相反。随着林分密度的减小,各处理的土壤微生物AWCD值趋于减少。通常低密度林分的土壤微生物的丰富度指数、Shannon-Wiener指数、McIntosh指数和Simpson指数较小。

杉木人工林近自然改造对土壤化学性质及酶活性的影响

研究杉木间伐后补栽闽楠、刨花楠进行近自然改造后对杉木人工林土壤化学性质及水解酶活性变化。在江西省新余市山下林场为研究近自然改造对杉木林的影响而设置3种林分,分别是杉木纯林(CLP)、杉木-闽楠改造林(MPC)、杉木-刨花楠改造林(MMC)。测定0-20、20-40、40-60 cm土壤化学性质和水解酶活性,分析土壤化学性质与水解酶间的关系。不同林分土壤有机质、有效磷和速效钾均随土层深度增加而降低。0-20 cm土层,改造林pH、有机质和有效磷显著增加,其中有机质分别提高22.52%与21.04%,有效磷分别提高5.9%与9.57%。20-40 cm土层,改造林有机质显著增加,有效磷、速效钾含量无显著差异。不同林分对养分全量的影响不一。40-60 cm土层,改造林与杉木纯林在有机质、全氮、全钾、速效钾含量有显著差异。不同林分土壤N∶P均低于我国亚热带区域土壤N∶P,土壤有效磷元素缺乏;改造林土壤C∶N、C∶P均高于杉木纯林。杉木-闽楠改造林土壤纤维二糖水解酶(CBH)、亮氨酸氨基肽酶(LAP)和酸性磷酸酶(ACP)酶活性相比杉木纯林显著降低;土壤β-1,4-N-乙酰葡糖氨糖苷酶(NAG)、酸性磷酸酶(ACP),杉木-刨花楠改造林较杉木纯林显著增加。相关性分析表明,不同林分土壤pH、有机质、全氮、全磷、全钾、有效磷、土壤酶活性之间存在显著关系。[结论]杉木纯林间伐后近自然改造有助于土壤养分积累,改善杉木人工林土壤质量,提高杉木胸径、材积,减缓单一树种种植带来的土壤肥力下降等问题。     

沿海基干林带结构调控对林分冠层结构参数及林地土壤的影响

以上海浦东沿海水杉基干林带为研究对象,分析水杉林分间伐以及间伐后林下套种其他树种构建复层林2种结构调控措施下林分冠层及林地土壤的变化。结果表明:间伐和复层林构建可显著促进上层乔木树高和胸径的生长,也有助于林下乔灌木和草本植物的发育;未间伐水杉林带LAI最高,其次为复层林带,间伐林分最低。各林分林隙分数的分布特征与LAI相反;3种林分土壤全N、全P和速效K含量差异不显著,而间伐林和复层林土壤速效P、水解N和有机质含量比未间伐林有进一步改善,但间伐林分和复层林带之间土壤养分状况没有显著差异;林分结构调控增加了0～50cm土壤有机碳储量,其中以0～15cm土层有机碳密度最高。复层林带和间伐林土壤呼吸速率比未间伐林分别提高了42%和33%。     

模拟N沉降下三种林分土壤营养动态分析

通过模拟N沉降实验,设置对照(CK,0 g N m~(-2)a~(-1));低氮(LN,5 g N m~(-2)a~(-1));中氮(MN,10 g N m~(-2)a~(-1));高氮(HN,15 g N m~(-2)a~(-1))4种N处理,以NH_4NO_3为外源N来研究福建省三明格氏栲自然保护区内板栗人工林、观光木人工林及米槠天然林0—10 cm土层养分变化动态。结果表明:N沉降会使板栗人工林土壤显著酸化,P含量降低,在一些时间段内,中高水平的N沉降会显著降低有机C、全N和速效N含量,中或低水平N沉降会显著降低土壤全P和速效P含量,而从第6个月起只有LN处理会显著降低土壤K含量。N沉降总体上会不同程度地提高观光木人工林土壤p H值、有机C、全N和速效N含量,有时影响会达显著或极显著水平;比较而言,LN和HN处理更会造成土壤全P的富集,而MN处理对速效P的影响更显著;LN和HN处理也会显著增加K含量,且以LN处理的效果更稳定。总体上N沉降量越大米槠天然林土壤酸化越显著;N沉降会使其有机C和速效P量显著波动;实验期间,HN处理会显著降低土壤全N和速效N量,而LN与MN处理则会使速效N和K含量增加;在4种处理下全P含量会呈相同趋势波动,差异不显著。     

广西典型土壤上不同林分的土壤肥力分析与综合评价

通过对广西山地黄壤、棕色石灰性土、赤红壤3种类型土壤上不同林分林下0—30cm土层土壤的pH值,有机质,全量N、P、K,速效N、P、K及CEC(阳离子交换量)等肥力因子的比较和综合评价,研究了3种类型土壤不同林分下的肥力演变状况。结果表明:不同林分对土壤肥力状况影响不同,山地黄壤上松木林和成年桦林土壤有机质含量分别是自然林的2.55和3.16倍,而新植桦林土壤速效养分明显高于自然林;棕色石灰性土上任豆林的有机质、全氮、全磷、碱解氮、速效磷、速效钾和CEC含量均为较高,而枇杷林的pH值明显比另外3种林分的低;赤红壤上种植第2代的速生桉林碱解氮含量明显比马尾松针阔叶自然林低,而有机质、全氮、全钾、速效钾均略高于自然林。不同类型土壤的综合评价结果表明,山地黄壤上自然林松林西南桦林;棕色石灰性土4种林分土壤的综合评价是任豆林≈竹林枇杷林=银合欢;赤红壤上马尾松针阔叶自然林≈第2代速生桉林。     

Duration of mulching caused variable pools of labile organic carbon in a Phyllostachys edulis plantation

Aims Soil total organic carbon and labile organic carbon are important indicators in evaluating soil quality. Mulching is widely applied to promote the emergence of bamboo shoot in winter time through stand management. Yet the consequences of mulching on soil quality in Phyllostachys edulis have not been well studied. We aim at the quantitative effect of mulching duration on soil quality in P. edulis stands.
Methods Several P. edulis stands located in Huangyan District of Taizhou, Zhejiang Province of China, had been applied with mulching for 1-2 years and were used in this study to assess the mulching effects. We also selected stands without mulching treatment as the reference sites (or control, CK) for comparisons.||||Important findings Total soil organic carbon (TOC), light fraction organic matter (LFOM), and easily-oxidized carbon (EOC) contents at stands with 1-year and 2-year mulching treatments were significantly increased compared with those at the CK sites. The 1-year mulching increased TOC, LFOM and EOC by 11.2%-74.2%, 31.7%-196.9% and 5.0%-79.6%, respectively, than those of CK sites, while by 22.2%-90.8%, 36.7%-238.5%, and 21.9%-97.5% with 2-year treatment. However, the contents of water-soluble organic carbon (WSOC) changed insignificantly. Among the indicators, we found that WSOC:TOC in CK was higher than that with the mulching treatments, while EOC:TOC with 1-year treatment was higher than that with 2-year treatment, and EOC:TOC with 2-year treatment was higher than that of CK. Additionally, WSOC, EOC, and LFOM at all three treatments showed high correlations with TOC, with a higher correlation coefficient of WSOC with TOC of 0- 30 cm soil layers in CK than those with mulching treatments. The correlation coefficient of EOC and LFOM with TOC was the highest at the 2-year mulching sites. More importantly, TOC, WSOC, EOC, and LFOM were significantly (p < 0.05), or extremely significantly (p < 0.01), correlated with soil nutrient content, including total N, hydrolysis N, available P, available K, exchangeable Ca, and exchangeable Mg in all treatments. In sum, it appeared that mulching in short term can increase the contents of TOC, soil labile organic carbons and soil nutrients in bamboo soils, yielding an improved soil quality and thus can be promoted as a plausible practice for the sustainable management of P. edulis stands.     

滇南喀斯特地区不同季节土壤和灌木叶片化学计量特征及对水分添加的响应

干旱是影响南方喀斯特地区植物生长的重要限制因子, 气候变化会影响该地区的降水量和分布格局。研究该地区土壤和植物化学计量特征及其水分响应格局, 具有重要意义。自2017年4月开始, 在云南建水喀斯特植物群落进行加水试验, 2018年4月(旱季)和8月(雨季)分别采集土壤和优势灌木鞍叶羊蹄甲(Bauhinia brachycarpa)和假虎刺(Carissa spinarum)叶片样品, 测定碳、氢、氮、磷、硫、钾、钙、镁、铝、钠、铁、锰、锌、铜14种元素含量。结果表明, 水分添加影响了表层土壤中碳、氮、钠的含量, 相比于旱季, 雨季土壤中钠和硫含量明显减少, 其余土壤元素在水分添加和季节变化下并未表现出明显差异。土壤水分含量的增加使得鞍叶羊蹄甲和假虎刺叶片中钾含量下降, 钙含量上升。在水分条件变化下, 两种植物叶元素含量的稳定性与植物中元素的含量有关, 含量越接近极大值(基本元素碳、氢、氮等)或极小值(微量元素铜、锌等)的元素其变异系数越小(越稳定), 两种植物中含量接近于1 mg·g^-1的元素磷、硫、镁的变异系数最高。在土壤水分条件变化下, 假虎刺中碳、氮、磷等大量元素含量的稳定性显著高于鞍叶羊蹄甲。降水变化和水分添加导致的土壤水分变化, 对滇南喀斯特地区土壤和植物中不同元素含量的影响不同, 这些结果将为该地区的土壤、植被修复和管理提供科学参考。     

Responses of plant community biomass to nitrogen and phosphorus additions in natural and restored grasslands around Qinghai Lake Basin

Aims Plant biomass reflects the primary productivity of community vegetation, and is the main resource of carbon input in the terrestrial ecosystem. It is usually limited by nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) availability in the soil. Alpine grassland around Qinghai Lake Basin has experienced extensive land-use changes due to the cultivation of native grassland and vegetation recovery on cropped land. In this experiment, two grassland types were chosen, natural alpine grassland (NG) and its adjacent restored grassland (RG), to determine the responses of plant community biomass to N and P additions with different land-use. Methods NH₄NO₃ and Ca(H₂PO₄)₂·H₂O were added in a completely randomized block design, with medium levels of 10 g N·m^-2 and 5 g P·m^-2. Soil NO₃^--N and available P contents, and the plant community biomass were measured in the two grasslands. Two-way ANOVA was used to determine the effects of nutrient additions on all measured indicators, and regression analysis was used to analyze the correlations between plant biomass and soil NO₃^--N and available P contents.Important findings Results showed: (1) N and P additions both increased grass biomass in the NG, and significantly elevated the total aboveground biomass, with the promoting effect of N addition higher than that of P addition; N addition significantly increased both grass and forb biomass in the RG, and markedly promoted the total aboveground biomass, while P addition had no effects on the functional groups and total aboveground biomass (p > 0.05). (2) N and P additions both had no effects on the belowground and total biomass in the NG, whereas N addition significantly increased the total biomass by 34% in the RG, which suggested that the effect of N limitation on the vegetation primary productivity was stronger in the RG at present stage. (3) The aboveground biomass in the NG increased with soil NO₃^--N content (p < 0.05), and the above- and below-ground as well as the total biomass were all positively correlated with soil NO₃^--N content in the RG (p < 0.01). These results indicated that the plant growth in alpine grassland around Qinghai Lake Basin was prone to N limitation, and the effect of P limitation changed with land-use. Soil available N might be the key limiting factor for vegetation restoration and reconstruction in the RG. The “Grain for Green” project (the land-use policy) and atmospheric N deposition are benefiting both plant growth and C accumulation in the alpine grassland ecosystem around Qinghai Lake Basin.     

不同林龄马尾松凋落物基质质量与土壤养分的关系

凋落物的质量、数量及分解速率在一定程度上代表了土壤的营养状况。为了精确估算凋落物分解对土壤碳库的年净归还量及凋落物-土壤生物化学连续体的深层理解,从凋落物基质质量的角度分析了三峡库区不同林龄马尾松凋落物基质质量与土壤养分的作用关系,结果表明:中龄林、近熟林、成熟林马尾松凋落物基质质量中的C、C/N比、C/P比、木质素/N比、木质素/P比差异显著,其中近熟林凋落物叶木质素/N分别比中龄林和成熟林的高33.65%、39.24%,N、P、K、木质素含量差异不显著;但各组织器官的N、P、K含量差异显著,均是皮<枝<叶<杂物,C/N比、C/P比的变化则相反。不同林龄马尾松0-20 cm(0-5 cm、5-10 cm、10-20 cm)土壤有机质、总氮、有效磷含量均表现出近熟林<中龄林<成熟林,0-5 cm最大,10-20 cm最小,且随着土壤深度的增加而明显降低,总磷则是中林龄最低,成熟林最大,pH值则各土层均表现为中龄林<成熟林<近熟林,平均pH值为4.55-5.51。凋落物基质质量指标与土壤养分之间冗余分析(RDA)表明:马尾松凋落物基质质量和土壤养分之间关系紧密,N、P、纤维素、半纤维素、木质素、木质素/N比、C/N比对土壤养分影响比较大;凋落物中木质素/N比、C/N比与土壤有机质呈显著负相关,其含量越高越不利于土壤有机质的形成,土壤养分积累的越慢;凋落物基质质量氮含量与土壤氮含量呈显著正相关;土壤pH值、容重与N含量呈显著负相关,与凋落物C/N比、木质素/N比呈显著正相关。马尾松土壤表面有机质、N、P养分含量与凋落物基质质量对应养分含量变化规律一致,土壤养分高,凋落物基质质量相对较高,土壤贫瘠,凋落物基质质量相对较低。     

不同密度杉木林对林下植被和土壤微生物群落结构的影响

为揭示土壤养分和细菌群落对林下植被调控的响应机制, 调查了浙江开化3种林分密度(高密度(KH)、中密度(KM)和低密度(KL))的17年生杉木人工林林下植被和生物量, 测定土壤理化性质, 并基于16S rDNA高通量测序技术分析细菌群落结构变化。结果表明, 3种密度的杉木林下植被地上部分总生物量为0.10-2.10 t·hm^-2, 且优势植物物种差异显著。理化性质测定分析发现, 高密度与低密度林分的土壤pH、有效磷含量差异显著。相关性分析表明, 土壤pH与林下植被中草本、灌木生物量及总生物量均呈显著正相关关系, 土壤有机质含量与灌木植被生物量及林下植被总生物量呈显著正相关关系, 速效钾含量与灌木植被生物量呈显著正相关关系。土壤微生物群落结构分析可知, 3种密度杉木林地土壤中酸杆菌门、变形菌门、放线菌门和绿弯菌门为优势菌群, 总相对丰度占比超过80%。冗余分析(RDA)表明土壤pH、碱解氮、有效磷和速效钾含量是土壤细菌群落结构变化的关键影响因素。酸杆菌门的优势亚群为Gp2、Gp1、Gp3和Gp6, 占酸杆菌群的51.32%-57.38%, 且随林分密度降低, 林下植被增多, Gp1占比增大, Gp2和Gp6占比下降; Gp6相对丰度与pH呈极显著负相关关系。可见, 杉木纯林经营中适度降低林分密度有利于林下植被生长和良好细菌群落结构保持, 有利于维持杉木林地土壤肥力, 实现可持续经营。     

Carbon,nitrogen and phosphorus stoichiometry of Myrica nana in Yunnan,China

Aims Carbon (C), nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) play important roles in plant growth and physiological functions. We aimed at exploring the intrinsic relationships of C, N and P in Myrica nana—a common shrub in Yunnan Province—as well as their relationships with pant biomass and soil nutrients.
Methods We measured the concentration of C, N and P of M. nana from 29 sites for their magnitudes and correlations with soil nutrients.
Important findings 1) The arithmetic mean value of C, N and P concentration in the roots, stems and leaves of M. nana was 45.94%, 0.54%, 0.03%, and 46.32%, 0.58%, 0.03%, and 49.05%, 1.70%, 0.06%, respectively. C, N and P concentrations in the leaves were significantly higher than those in the roots and the stems. The C:N:P in roots, stems and leaves was 1531:18:1, 1544:19:1, and 818:10:1, respectively. 2) The C concentration and N:P in leaves of M. nana decreased with the increase of biomass of M. nana; the leaf C concentration was significantly correlated with biomass (p < 0.01), while the correlation between N:P and biomass was not significant (p > 0.05). The leaf N increased with the increase of plant biomass, the P was significantly correlated with biomass (p < 0.05), but the correlation between N concentration and biomass was not significant (p > 0.05). N:P in leaves was 34.2, suggesting that plant growth was limited by P. 3) C, N and P concentration in the roots were significantly correlated with soil P (p < 0.05), with N, P concentrations correlated with soil P positively (p < 0.01) and C negatively (p < 0.05). C concentration in the stems was significantly and negatively correlated with soil C, N, with significant correlation with C, N, and P concentration (p < 0.01). P concentration in the stems was significantly and positively correlated with soil P concentration (p < 0.01), while leaf P significantly and positively correlated with soil C, N and P (p < 0.01); leaf C concentration was significantly and negatively correlated with soil P (p < 0.01).     

Impacts of nitrogen addition on foliar nitrogen and phosphorus stoichiometry in a subtropical evergreen broad-leaved forest in Mount Wuyi

Aims Our purpose was to explore the effects of nitrogen addition on foliar nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and N:P stoichiometry and to assess their differences among different species and functional groups.
Methods N addition experiment has been conducted in a subtropical evergreen broad-leaved forest in Mount Wuyi, Fujian Province since 2011. Foliar concentrations of nitrogen and phosphorus were measured and foliar stoichiometry was estimated in tree, shrub, herb, fern and moss species following the N addition treatments from 2013 to 2015.
Important findings Generally, foliar N increased for almost all species and herbaceous plants are much more sensitive than trees and shrubs under N addition. Foliar N of Castanopsis carlesii, Amomum villosum, Woodwardia japonica increased significantly under N addition. Foliar P for most species was sensitive to the N addition. Foliar P of herbaceous plants increased significantly but foliar P of Leucobryum chlorophyllosum decreased significantly. The results showed the subtropical evergreen forest in Mount Wuyi was mainly limited by P and mean foliar N:P ratios enhanced from 18.67 to 19.72 under N addition, indicating that the strength of P limitation was enhanced by N addition. N:P ratios of the dominant arboreal species in the communities tended to be stable, while N:P ratios of herbaceous plants and shrubs increased. The changes in N:P ratios were mainly determined by P dynamics instead of N dynamics under N addition, and our results confirmed that increasing N availability can affect P cycling.     

水分和养分添加对羊草功能性状和地上生物量的影响

研究水分和养分添加对植物功能性状的影响, 对于揭示植物对环境变化的响应和适应规律至关重要。该文采用盆栽试验的方法, 进行不同水平水分处理(增水50%, 减水50%, 以498 mm降水量作为对照)和养分添加(无养分添加, 单施氮肥, 单施磷肥, 氮磷共施), 研究羊草(Leymus chinensis)的10种功能性状和地上生物量对水分和养分添加的响应。得出以下结论: (1)双因素方差分析结果表明, 水分主效应对羊草株高、分蘖数、茎生物量、叶生物量、叶面积、叶质量、净光合速率、蒸腾速率、水分利用效率存在显著影响; 养分主效应对羊草分蘖数、茎生物量、净光合速率、蒸腾速率、水分利用效率存在显著影响; 水分和养分的交互作用对羊草分蘖数、茎生物量、蒸腾速率、水分利用效率存在显著影响。(2)各功能性状对降水量的响应在不同养分添加水平是不同的, 分蘖数和叶面积在单施氮肥和氮磷共施条件下随降水量增加而增加, 而在无养分添加和单施磷肥条件下无显著变化; 茎生物量在无养分添加、单施氮肥和单施磷肥条件下随降水量增加而增加, 而在氮磷共施条件下无增加趋势; 比叶面积在单施氮肥条件下增水处理显著低于对照组, 而在其他养分添加条件下无明显变化。(3)短期氮磷处理显著影响羊草叶片光合生理性状, 而对叶形态性状影响不显著。(4)羊草地上生物量随降水量的增加呈现上升趋势, 并且在单施氮肥条件下, 增水处理使地上生物量达到最高, 为522.55 g·m ^-2。总之, 羊草的功能性状对降水量增加表现出明显的响应, 响应格局在不同养分条件下不同, 反映了其对水肥环境变化的适应。
