晋西北黄土区人工林土壤水分动态的定量研究

本文根据１９８８－１９９０年在定位观测资料,对晋西北黄土丘陵区河北杨林、刺槐林和柠条藻木林的土壤水分动态规律进行了定量分析。依次就水分分布分层、水分剖面特征、水分季节动态、水分循环模式与水分循环水分等问题进行了探讨。本文采用的新的分析途径和方法将有助于对黄土区不同植被类型土壤水分生态研究的进一步深化。     

沙丘多枝柽柳灌丛根层土壤含水量变化特征与根系水力提升证据

分析干旱区深根型荒漠植物的根层土壤水分是揭示荒漠植物与土壤水分关系机理的重要方面。在黑河中游一片风沙侵蚀区域的多枝柽柳(Tamarix ramosissima)人工林地中, 对表层0.3 m到3 m深的土壤不同深度的含水量进行了连续的动态观测。结果显示, 多枝柽柳根系层土壤含水量可以分为明显不同的3层: 浅层(0.2-1.7 m深)相对湿润层、中间(1.7-2.7 m深)相对干层和深层(2.7 m以下)有效含水层。在多枝柽柳生长盛期, 浅层相对湿润层土壤含水量呈现明显的昼夜变化特征, 同时, 在晚上植物根系与浅层土壤之间存在正水势梯度, 这说明存在根系水力提升现象。水力提升是干旱气候下根层浅层土壤含水量保持相对湿润的主要原因, 并因此维系浅层根系的发育, 也为多枝柽柳具备的防风固沙功能提供了可能的解释。据初步估算, 多枝柽柳根系水力提升占每天耗水量的5%-8%, 耗水的主要水分来源仍然是充足的土壤深层有效含水层。     

子午岭次生植被下土壤蓄水性能及有效性研究

通过土壤水分特征曲线的测定,研究了子午岭北部黄土丘陵区不同次生植被群落类型下土壤蓄水性能及水分有效含量的变化。结果表明：撂荒地的土壤蓄水量最小,草地和灌木地的土壤蓄水量有所提高,增幅为17％～65％,而乔木林地土壤蓄水量最大,分别较撂荒地和草地、灌木地增加明显,其增加幅度分别达68％～79％、41％～50％和15％～20％;土壤田间持水量在0～20cm土层从撂荒地、草地、灌木林地到乔木林地,土壤田问持水量逐步提高,而20～50cm土层则变化不大;土壤有效水含量在两个土层中的变化均随着植被的进展演替呈现增加的趋势。讨论了植被与土壤互动关系中应进一步研究的问题。     

华北山区典型人工林土壤水势动态和水分运移规律

大规模植树造林工程有效缓解了我国北方水土流失等问题,但伴随植被生长和降水格局变化,水循环过程发生明显改变。土壤水分运动是水循环的关键过程,研究变化环境下人工林植被土壤水分运移规律,对植被生态恢复具有重要意义。基于2014-2018年多时间尺度（半小时、天、月和年）华北山区崇陵流域典型人工侧柏林和荒草土壤剖面水势监测数据,阐明不同植被覆盖下土水势动态变化规律,提出土壤水分运移和植被水分利用模式。研究结果表明：侧柏林土壤水势日变幅显著低于荒草植被,但土水势日变幅随土壤深度增加而减小的速率90 a侧柏依次大于60 a侧柏和荒草;月、年尺度侧柏林不同深度土水势变化对降水的响应大于荒草地,其中60 a侧柏林年均土水势与年降雨量显著线性相关（P<0.05）。由水势梯度和零通量面多年平均变化可知,90 a侧柏林0-50 cm土壤水呈下渗趋势,根系水力提升促使50-100 cm土壤水向上蒸散;60 a侧柏林0-20 cm、70-100 cm以及枯水年30-70 cm土壤水均以蒸散为主,根系可同时吸收利用表层和深层土壤水分;荒草地0-20 cm土壤水分蒸发强烈,且为根系主要吸水深度,20-100 cm土壤水稳定下渗。相比60 a侧柏林和荒草,90 a侧柏林的土壤调蓄能力增强,与荒草互被可减少植被间水分竞争,充分利用土壤水,从而减少流域内地表径流和土壤侵蚀量。     

黄土丘陵沟壑区不同植被类型土壤有效水和持水能力

以黄土丘陵沟壑区坊塌流域不同植被类型为研究对象,在野外调查的基础上,利用离心机法测定不同植被类型0—10、10—20 cm土层不同吸力下的土壤含水率,并利用Van Gennuchten模型对土壤水分特征曲线进行拟合,对比分析了不同植被类型不同土层土壤水分特征曲线、土壤水分有效性和持水性。结果表明:随着植被恢复的进行,不同植被类型土壤水分特征曲线出现了明显的差异,但是其斜率基本不变且不同植被类型0—10、10—20 cm土层土壤水分特征曲线都呈近似的"S"型;不同植被类型0—10、10—20 cm土层土壤有效水范围分别为22.65%—26.80%、23.97%—28.13%,除白羊草群落和刺槐林外呈现出多年生蒿禾类群落低于灌木群落而高于一年生草本群落的变化趋势;不同植被类型土壤持水能力在0—10 cm土层没有显著性差异,在10—20 cm呈现出多年生蒿禾类群落低于灌木群落而高于一年生草本群落,其中白羊草群落最大,刺槐林最低。刺槐林有效水分和土壤持水能力都较低,建议适当采取间伐并促进其近自然化恢复来实现土壤水分的可持续利用,尽量避免在阳坡缺水地区种植刺槐。对于研究地区土壤水分的可持续利用、植被恢复和科学合理的进行植被配置具有重要意义。

条带休闲轮种对坡地水土流失和水分利用效率的影响

为提高宁南旱区坡耕地土壤保水能力、减少水土流失,于2007-2010年在10°～15°坡耕地上,以传统无条带种植模式为对照,研究条带隔年休闲轮种模式对农田土壤水分动态、水土流失特征和水分利用效率的影响.结果表明:经过4年休闲轮种,条带处理比传统无条带种植处理显著增加0 ～200 cm土层土壤含水量4.9％～7.0％;条带轮种比无条带模式有效保蓄雨季休闲期降水,明显改善了作物生育前期的土壤水分状况,条带处理0～200 cm土层土壤含水量比对照显著增加5.4％～8.5％.与对照相比,条带休闲轮种处理地表径流减少0.7 ～3.2 m3·hm-2,泥沙量减少0.2～1.9 t·hm-2,土壤全N损失量减少42.1％ ～73.3％,作物水分利用效率提高6.1％ ～24.9％,降水利用效率提高6.3％ ～15.3％.     

Measuring very negative water potentials with polymer tensiometers: principles,performance and applications

In recent years, a polymer tensiometer (POT) was developed and tested to directly measure matric potentials in dry soils. By extending the measurement range to wilting point (a 20-fold increase compared to conventional, water-filled tensiometers), a myriad of previously unapproachable research questions are now open to experimental exploration. Furthermore, the instrument may well allow the development of more water-efficient irrigation strategies by recording water potential rather than soil water content. The principle of the sensor is to fill it with a polymer solution instead of water, thereby building up osmotic pressure inside the sensor. A high-quality ceramic allows the exchange of water with the soil while retaining the polymer. The ceramic has pores sufficiently small to remain saturated even under very negative matric potentials. Installing the sensor in an unsaturated soil causes the high pressure of the polymer solution to drop as the water potentials in the soil and in the POT equilibrate. As long as the pressure inside the polymer chamber remains sufficiently large to prevent cavitation, the sensor will function properly. If the osmotic potential in the polymer chamber can produce a pressure of approximately 2.0 MPa when the sensor is placed in water, proper readings down to wilting point are secured. Various tests in disturbed soil, including an experiment with root water uptake, demonstrate the operation and performance of the new polymer tensiometer and illustrate how processes such as root water uptake can be studied in more detail than before. The paper discusses the available data and explores the long term perspectives offered by the instrument.     

黄土丘陵半干旱区柠条林密度对土壤水分和柠条生长的影响

研究密度对土壤水分和植物生长的影响对森林植被恢复和生态建设具有重要的意义。以黄土丘陵半干旱区人工柠条为研究对象,对相同立地条件下不同密度柠条林生长与林地土壤水分进行了长期定位观测和分析。研究表明,1—5年生柠条不同密度林地土壤水资源量差异显著,从第3年开始,土壤水资源量随着密度增加而增加;10—12年生柠条密度越低土壤水资源量越高(Treatment4除外,T4),不同密度之间水资源量差异不显著。1—3年生柠条密度越高会促进其株高生长;从第四年开始,柠条密度过高会抑制其株高生长;1—5年生柠条密度越高基径生长越快,不同密度生长差异不显著;10—12年生密度过高(Treatment1,T1)或过低(T4)均会抑制柠条株高与基径生长。在柠条播种后第5年,高密度试验小区(T1和Treatment2,T2)柠条林地最大入渗深度土壤水资源量降到水资源利用限度,此时需要依据土壤水分植被承载力通过平茬来降低林分密度,以达到减少土壤水分消耗和可持续利用土壤水资源之目的。     

Importance of soil-water relations in assessing the endpoint of bioremediated soils

This study was conducted to investigate water movement in hydrocarbon contaminated soils. Three soils were studied, a hydrocarbon contaminated soil, the same soil after 3 years of bioremediation, and a control soil from the same site. There was a critical soil water content around 18% (bioremediated soil) and 20% (contaminated soil), above which the sorptivity of the contaminated soil was near that of the control soil. For soils with water contents below this value, there was a strong divergence in sorptivity between contaminated and control or bioremediated soils. Results suggest that water availability in contaminated soils will be highly dependent on soil water properties as water potential approaches the permanent wilting point (-1.5 MPa matrix potential).Infiltration of water into air dry (2% m.c. w/w) hydrocarbon contaminated soils was up to three orders of magnitude slower than for the control soil. For air dried soils, the infiltration rate of the contaminated and bioremediated soils was constant with time. This was in contrast to the control soil where infiltration rate was a function of the reciprocal of the square root of time.     

Effects of biological soil crusts on profile distribution of soil water,organic carbon and total nitrogen in Mu Us Sandland,China

Aims Biological soil crusts (BSCs) can affect soil properties including water dynamics and cycling of soil carbon and nitrogen in dryland ecosystems. Previous research has mostly focused on effects of BSCs on soil water distribution or carbon and nitrogen fixation in the surface soil layer. Thus, little is known about effects of BSCs on properties throughout the soil profile. In the current study, we assessed the effects of BSCs on the distribution of soil water content (SW), soil organic carbon content (SOC) and soil total nitrogen content (STN) throughout the soil profile as well as the influence of water conditions on the effects of BSCs.Methods In a field investigation in Mu Us Sandland, North China, soil samples were taken from plots with and without BSCs on 13 and 28 September 2006, respectively. On the two sampling dates, average soil gravimetric water content was 3.83% (±1.29%) and 5.08% (±0.89%), respectively, which were regarded as low and high water conditions. Soil samples were collected every 5 cm to a depth of 60 cm, and SW, SOC and STN were measured in the laboratory.Important findings (i) BSCs affected profile distribution of SW, SOC and STN. In addition, water conditions within the plots significantly modified BSCs' effects on the profile distribution of SW, but marginally affected the effects on SOC and STN. (ii) Under high water conditions, SW in the surface soil layer (0–10 cm) was higher in soils with BSCs compared to those without BSCs, while the opposite was true in the deep soil layer (30–55 cm). (iii) Under low water conditions, SW was lower with BSCs compared with no BSCs in near-surface (5–20 cm) and deep (25–40 cm) soil layers. (iv) BSCs affected SOC and STN only in the surface soil layer (0–5 cm) and were modified by plot water conditions.     

黄土高原四种人工植物群落土壤呼吸季节变化及其影响因子

以黄土高原侧柏、柠条、沙棘和油松人工植物群落为对象,土壤呼吸日动态和季节变化及其与环境因子之间的关系,结果表明:4种植物群落土壤呼吸速率具有典型的日变化和季节变化模式, 4种群落中,以侧柏6月土壤呼吸日变幅最大,沙棘6月土壤呼吸日变幅最小,大部分群落不同月份最大土壤呼吸与最小土壤呼吸倍数在1.1～1.6之间.4种群落中,以柠条土壤呼吸季节变幅最大,侧柏最小,最大土壤呼吸与最小土壤呼吸的倍数为1.5～2.2倍之间.同一植物类型土壤呼吸具有明显的季节变化特征,其具体变化趋势因植物类型而异.4种植物群落土壤呼吸速率与土壤和大气温度以及土壤含水量的关系在不同季节表现为不同的关系,其中侧柏和柠条土壤呼吸与土壤温度均呈乘幂关系,与大气温度为指数关系.沙棘土壤呼吸与土壤温度和大气温度均为乘幂关系,油松土壤呼吸与土壤温度和大气温度均为线性关系.这表明土壤呼吸与土壤和大气温度之间的关系及其紧密程度因植被类型而异.综合分析表明,同一气候区相同环境因子对不同植物群落土壤呼吸的影响作用不同,且因其自身具有明显的季节变化,从而导致对土壤呼吸的调控作用也具有明显的季节变异模式.     

黄土高原水土保持林对土壤水分的影响

黄土高原植被恢复的限制因素主要是土壤水分,植被与土壤水分关系的研究对黄土高原植被恢复具有重要意义.2008年7月1日至2009年10月31日间采用EnviroSMART土壤水分定位监测系统以每30min监测1次的频度,对晋西黄土区刺槐人工林地、油松人工林地、次生林地的土壤水分变化进行了研究.研究得出:次生林地0-150 cm土层中平均蓄水量为331.95mm,刺槐人工林地为233.85 mm,有整地措施的油松人工林地为314.85mm,刺槐人工林比次生林多消耗的98.10mm土壤水分主要来源于80 cm以下土层.次生林主要消耗0-80 cm土层的水分,而人工林不但对0-80 cm土层水分的消耗量大于次生林,对深层土壤的消耗也较次生林大,这将有可能导致人工林地深层土壤的“干化”.在土壤水分减少期(11-1月)刺槐人工林土壤水分的日均损耗量为0.86mm、油松人工林为0.82 mm、次生林为0.84 mm.土壤水分缓慢恢复期(2-5月)刺槐人工林地土壤水分的恢复速度0.90mm/d,油松人工林地为0.53 mm/d、次生林地为0.79 mm/d.土壤水分剧烈变化期(5-10月)刺槐人工林地土壤水分含量的极差为95.71mm,油松人工林地为179.1mm,次生林地为72.03mm.在干旱少雨的黄土高原进行植被恢复时,应多采取封山育林等方式,依靠自然力量形成能够与当地土壤水资源相协调的次生林,是防止人工植被过度耗水形成“干化层”、保障水土保持植被持续发挥生态服务功能的关键.     

云南松林的根系生物量及其分布规律的研究

利用平均标准木机械布点法测定了云南省永仁林业局云南松不同龄组林分的根系生物量及其沿土壤剖面深度的分布规律.结果表明,林分根系总生物量随林龄而增加,幼龄林(15～17年)的根系生物量为8.50 t·hm^-2,中龄林(30～32年)为11.70 t·hm^-2,成熟林为(＞62年)18.91 t·hm^-2.在不同龄组林分中,粗根(＞10mm)生物量差异最大(1.5～12.3 t·hm^-2),而中根(5～10 mm)(1.4～1.6 t·hm^-2)及小根(＜5 mm)(5.3～6.2 t·hm^-2)的生物量差异最小.根系生物量沿土壤深度迅速减少,约93%的根系生物量集中分布在0～30 cm土层中,深土层(30～115 cm)的根系生物量仅占7%左右.     

水蚀风蚀交错区典型植被土壤水分消耗和补充深度对比研究

研究了黄土高原水蚀风蚀交错区六道沟小流域8种植被类型条件下植物消耗土壤水分深度与降水对应的补充深度。结果表明:裸地、农地、撂荒地、人工草(灌)地(苜蓿地、柠条地、沙打旺地)、当地典型草地(荒草地、长芒草地)在平水年及干旱年,土壤水分均表现为负平衡;丰水年部分样地土壤水分得到补充。平水年以及干旱年(2010—2011年)植物耗水深度依次为:柠条地撂荒地沙打旺地苜蓿地≈长芒草地≈荒草地农地裸地,降水补充深度为农地裸地撂荒地荒草地长芒草地沙打旺地苜蓿地柠条地。丰水年(2012年)裸地、苜蓿地、荒草地与沙打旺地土壤水分并未显示出明显负平衡过程,但柠条地耗水深度依然达到260 cm,其它样地依次为撂荒地农地长芒草地;降水入渗深度排序:农地裸地撂荒地=柠条地荒草地=苜蓿地长芒草地沙打旺地。水蚀风蚀交错区土壤蒸发(裸地蒸发)以及降水补充深度一般为0—120 cm范围内,丰水年土壤水分能得到恢复。农地的土壤水分消耗与补充深度略有增加。农地撂荒后耗水深度与撂荒地植被类型有密切联系,随植被盖度与丰度的增加,耗水有进一步加深的趋势,撂荒地土壤水分补充深度小于等于消耗深度。农地退耕还草所种植的深根性植被(苜蓿、沙打旺、柠条等)不仅会迅速消耗当季降水,同时会进一步消耗土壤深层储水,致使120 cm以下观测土层土壤含水量较低,造成土壤水分消耗深度较浅的假象。除撂荒地外,高生物产量的人工草(灌)耗水量高,耗水深度也深,因此在退耕还林(草)过程中,应该充分考虑不同植被类型的年度水分交换深度,采取措施降低消耗深度,增加入渗深度。     

液态地膜覆盖对土壤水分有效性的影响

采用田间微区试验方式,观测和分析了液膜地表覆盖下土壤含水量、花生植株伸长速率、叶面积指数、叶片光合速率、水分利用效率及产量等指标,并利用隶属函数法进行数值转换后,对液膜覆盖的土壤水分有效性进行了分析.结果表明,液膜覆盖提高土壤含水量103％ ～ 167％,且随液膜浓度的增大有效性提高;不同土层间,花生耗水量差异显著,其中以土层深度为20 ～ 40 cm差异最大;液膜覆盖也明显提高了光合速率,增幅为1.9％～15.6％;叶面积指数提高0.3％ ～26.4％,改善了植株光合形态.综合全部指标表明,液膜类型为3号,液膜浓度为高水平时,覆盖效应最为明显.     

Contrasting soil respiration in young and old-growth ponderosa pine forests

Three years of fully automated and manual measurements of soil CO₂ efflux, soil moisture and temperature were used to explore the diel, seasonal and inter‐annual patterns of soil efflux in an old‐growth (250‐year‐old, O site) and recently regenerating (14‐year‐old, Y site) ponderosa pine forest in central Oregon. The data were used in conjunction with empirical models to determine which variables could be used to predict soil efflux in forests of contrasting ages and disturbance histories. Both stands experienced similar meteorological conditions with moderately cold wet winters and hot dry summers. Soil CO₂ efflux at both sites showed large inter‐annual variability that could be attributed to soil moisture availability in the deeper soil horizons (O site) and the quantity of summer rainfall (Y site). Seasonal patterns of soil CO₂ efflux at the O site showed a strong positive correlation between diel mean soil CO₂ efflux and soil temperature at 64 cm depth whereas diel mean soil efflux at the Y site declined before maximum soil temperature occurred during summer drought. The use of diel mean soil temperature and soil water potential inferred from predawn foliage water potential measurements could account for 80% of the variance of diel mean soil efflux across 3 years at both sites, however, the functional shape of the soil water potential constraint was site‐specific. Based on the similarity of the decomposition rates of litter and fine roots between sites, but greater productivity and amount of fine litter detritus available for decomposition at the O site, we would expect higher rates of soil CO₂ efflux at the O site. However, annual rates were only higher at the O site in one of the 3 years (597 ± 45 vs. 427 ± 80 g C m^?2). Seasonal patterns of soil efflux at both sites showed influences of soil water limitations that were also reflected in patterns of canopy stomatal conductance, suggesting strong linkages between above and below ground processes.

泡桐进入农田,使风沙区农田生态环境得到改善,从而提高农田生态系统的自我调节能力,增强对自然灾害特别是干热风的抗御能力,促使小麦稳产高产,对此已有广泛的报道;然而泡桐对麦田土壤水分和盐分以及对小麦生长发育的影响动态,尚未见系统报道,这正是泡桐改善农田生态环境,保障小麦高产稳产的有力论据。     

宁夏东部荒漠草原灌丛引入对土壤水分动态及亏缺的影响

全球气候变化背景下,荒漠草原人工灌丛引入加速其灌丛化进程,对草原土壤水分产生重要影响。为了解宁夏东部荒漠草原灌丛引入过程中土壤水分动态及亏缺现状,选取了封育草地、放牧草地、不同年限(3a、12a、22a)和间距(40 m、6 m、2 m)灌丛柠条(Caragana korshinskii)地进行土壤水分测定,并利用土壤水分相对亏缺指数(compared soil water deficit index,CSWDI)、样地土壤水分相对亏缺指数(plot compared soil water deficit index,PCSWDI)对土壤水分亏缺进行定量分析。结果表明:灌丛引入过程中不同年限、间距灌丛地0—200 cm土层土壤含水量均显著低于封育草地与放牧地(P<0.05);各样地季节动态均表现为春季返潮、夏季消耗、秋季蓄积的季节规律,但不同年限、间距灌丛地表现为春季返潮微弱,土壤含水量仅为7.80%—10.90%,显著低于封育草地和放牧地(11.90%—16.09%);灌丛引入过程中各灌丛地0—100 cm有效储水量(-16.98—18.69 mm)均低于封育草地(34.67 ...
