Global change is affecting primary productivity in forests worldwide, and this, in turn, will alter long‐term carbon (C) sequestration in wooded ecosystems. On one hand, increased primary productivity, for example, in response to elevated atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO 2), can result in greater inputs of organic matter to the soil, which could increase C sequestration belowground. On other hand, many of the interactions between plants and microorganisms that determine soil C dynamics are poorly characterized, and additional inputs of plant material, such as leaf litter, can result in the mineralization of soil organic matter, and the release of soil C as CO 2 during so‐called “priming effects”. Until now, very few studies made direct comparison of changes in soil C dynamics in response to altered plant inputs in different wooded ecosystems. We addressed this with a cross‐continental study with litter removal and addition treatments in a temperate woodland (Wytham Woods) and lowland tropical forest (Gigante forest) to compare the consequences of increased litterfall on soil respiration in two distinct wooded ecosystems. Mean soil respiration was almost twice as high at Gigante (5.0 μmol CO 2 m ?2 s ?1) than at Wytham (2.7 μmol CO 2 m ?2 s ?1) but surprisingly, litter manipulation treatments had a greater and more immediate effect on soil respiration at Wytham. We measured a 30% increase in soil respiration in response to litter addition treatments at Wytham, compared to a 10% increase at Gigante. Importantly, despite higher soil respiration rates at Gigante, priming effects were stronger and more consistent at Wytham. Our results suggest that in situ priming effects in wooded ecosystems track seasonality in litterfall and soil respiration but the amount of soil C released by priming is not proportional to rates of soil respiration. Instead, priming effects may be promoted by larger inputs of organic matter combined with slower turnover rates. 相似文献

全球变化会引起凋落物质量和数量的变化以及氮沉降增加,从而影响土壤养分循环。土壤生态酶化学计量可以揭示微生物生长和代谢过程的养分限制,但目前温带混交林土壤生态酶化学计量对凋落物输入和氮添加同时改变的响应还不清楚。通过凋落物处理和氮添加实验设计,探讨温带松栎混交林生态酶化学计量的响应以及影响生态酶化学计量的主要因子。结果表明:(1)凋落物处理和氮添加无显著交互作用,土壤生态酶化学计量在氮添加处理下差异不显著,在凋落物处理下差异显著,表现为叶凋落物加倍(L)和混合凋落物加倍(LB)处理高于枝果凋落物加倍(B)和去除凋落物处理(N)。不同凋落物和氮添加处理下,土壤生态酶化学计量均未明显偏离1∶1∶1的关系。(2)土壤微生物碳利用效率(CUE C∶N和CUE C∶P)表现为叶凋落物加倍和混合凋落物加倍处理低于枝果凋落物加倍和去除凋落物处理,在氮添加处理下差异不显著。土壤微生物氮利用效率(NUE N∶C)和微生物磷利用效率(PUE P∶C)在不同凋落物和氮添加处理下差异均不显著。TER C∶N在不同... 相似文献

Background and aimsThe litter layer is a major source of CO2, and it also influences soil-atmosphere exchange of N2O and CH4. So far, it is not clear how much of soil greenhouse gas (GHG) emission derives from the litter layer itself or is litter-induced. The present study investigates how the litter layer controls soil GHG fluxes and microbial decomposer communities in a temperate beech forest. MethodsWe removed the litter layer in an Austrian beech forest and studied responses of soil CO2, CH4 and N2O fluxes and the microbial community via phospholipid fatty acids (PLFA). Soil GHG fluxes were determined with static chambers on 22 occasions from July 2012 to February 2013, and soil samples collected at 8 sampling events. ResultsLitter removal reduced CO2 emissions by 30 % and increased temperature sensitivity (Q10) of CO2 fluxes. Diffusion of CH4 into soil was facilitated by litter removal and CH4 uptake increased by 16 %. This effect was strongest in autumn and winter when soil moisture was high. Soils without litter turned from net N2O sources to slight N2O sinks because N2O emissions peaked after rain events in summer and autumn, which was not the case in litter-removal plots. Microbial composition was only transiently affected by litter removal but strongly influenced by seasonality. ConclusionsLitter layers must be considered in calculating forest GHG budgets, and their influence on temperature sensitivity of soil GHG fluxes taken into account for future climate scenarios. 相似文献

Models of ecosystem carbon (C) balance generally assume a strong relationship between NPP, litter inputs, and soil C accumulation, but there is little direct evidence for such a coupled relationship. Using a unique 50-year detrital manipulation experiment in a mixed deciduous forest and in restored prairie grasslands in Wisconsin, combined with sequential density fractionation, isotopic analysis, and short-term incubation, we examined the effects of detrital inputs and removals on soil C stabilization, destabilization, and quality. Both forested sites showed greater decline in bulk soil C content in litter removal plots (55 and 66 %) compared to increases in litter addition plots (27 and 38 % increase in surface soils compared to controls). No accumulation in the mineral fraction C was observed after 50 years of litter addition of the two forested plots, thus increases in the light density fraction pool drove patterns in total C content. Litter removal across both ecosystem types resulted in a decline in both free light fraction and mineral C content, with an overall 51 % decline in mineral-associated carbon in the intermediate (1.85–2.4 g cm ?3) density pool; isotopic data suggest that it was preferentially younger C that was lost. In contrast to results from other, but younger litter manipulation sites, there was with no evidence of priming even in soils collected after 28 years of treatment. In prairie soils, aboveground litter exclusion had an effect on C levels similar to that of root exclusion, thus we did not see evidence that root-derived C is more critical to soil C sequestration. There was no clear evidence that soil C quality changed in litter addition plots in the forested sites; δ 13C and Δ 14C values, and incubation estimates of labile C were similar between control and litter addition soils. C quality appeared to change in litter removal plots; soils with litter excluded had Δ 14C values indicative of longer mean residence times, δ 13C values indicative of loss of fresh plant-derived C, and decreases in all light fraction C pools, although incubation estimates of labile C did not change. In prairie soils, δ 13C values suggest a loss of recent C4-derived soil C in litter removal plots along with significant increases in mean residence time, especially in plots with removal of roots. Our results suggest surface mineral soils may be vulnerable to significant C loss in association with disturbance, land use change, or perhaps even climate change over century–decadal timescales, and also highlight the need for longer-term experimental manipulations to study soil organic matter dynamics. 相似文献

Many field studies have demonstrated that soil temperature explains most of the temporal variation in soil respiration ( SR). However, there is increasing evidence to suggest that SR is also influenced by current, or recent, photosynthate. Accordingly, seasonal changes in SR nominally attributed to temperature may, in part, be due to seasonality in photosynthesis. Within a mixed coniferous–deciduous temperate forest, we measured SR and used the process model SECRETS to test whether seasonal changes in photosynthesis influence seasonal differences in SR. Measurements were made in six adjacent plots (from pure evergreen to pure deciduous) that exhibited a gradient in the seasonality of photosynthesis. Within all six plots, we found strong correlations between the basal rate of SR ( BR; defined as the SR at 10°C) and modeled photosynthesis (i.e. gross primary productivity; GPP). Moreover, we observed larger seasonal changes in BR in those plots that exhibited larger seasonal changes in photosynthesis, as compared with plots with smaller changes in photosynthesis. This is relevant because estimates of the Q10 of SR ( Q10 is the relative change in a process rate per temperature change of 10°C) typically assume a constant BR. Our results therefore support the hypothesis that differences in the apparent Q10 of SR (apparent Q10= Q10 derived from field measurements of SR and temperature) among studies may, in large part, be related to seasonal differences in photosynthesis. We suggest that variation in stand structure and species composition and, thus, in the photosynthetic signatures, induce different seasonal changes in BR via differences in the belowground supply of labile carbon. If these seasonal changes in BR are not properly accounted for, fitted apparent Q10 values may not express the temperature response of respiratory processes in the soil. 相似文献

Vegetation, leaf litter fall and soil pH were sampled repeatedly within semipermanent plots in a South-Swedish deciduous forest, 1935–1983. Leaf litter fall was summarized in a litter quality index. Vegetation types were differentiated along similar gradients in soil pH and leaf litter quality. The greatest shifts in dominance among field layer species were found in those plots where the quality of the leaf litter had improved. These plots also showed a halt in the general tendency towards a decreasing pH in the top soil. 相似文献

Soil enzyme activities (dehydrogenase, urease, phosphatase, and arylsulfatase) in a temperate forest soil were determined
in relation to landscape position and seasons. Overstory of the area is dominated by Quercus mongolica, Kalopanax pictus, Carpicus cordata, and Acer pseudo-sieboldianum. The activities were measured in three patches, namely a north-facing backslope, a ridge, and a south-facing backslope in
autumn and spring over 2 years. In addition, spatially more detailed analysis for phosphatase was conducted before and after
litterfall production in six patches. Dehydrogenase, urease, phosphatase, and arylsulfatase activities varied 1.8–18.5 μg
INT-formazan g −1 h −1, 45.4–347.0 μg NH 4
+ g −1 h −1, 0.9–4.5 mmol pNP g −1 h −1, and 0.7–2.6 mmol pNP g −1 h −1, respectively. In general, higher enzyme activities were found in the northern aspect than in the southern aspect. This variation
appears to be related to differences in chemical properties (e.g., Fe, Al, and Mg) of soil as well as distribution of leaf
litter. Two patterns were discernible in relation to seasonal variations. Dehydrogenase and urease exhibited a positive correlation
with mean air temperature, suggesting that temperature would be a major controlling variable for those enzymes. In contrast,
higher activities were detected in autumn for phosphatase and arylsulfatase activities, which appeared to be closely related
to litter production and distribution. Overall results of this study indicate that soil enzyme activities in a forest floor
are influenced by several variables such as temperature, nutrient availability, and input of leaf litter, which are closely
related to landscape position. 相似文献

Plant litter may play an important role in herbaceous plant communities by limiting primary production and influencing plant
species richness. However, it is not known how the effect of litter interacts with fertilization. We tested for the role of
litter and fertilization in a large-scale experiment to investigate effects on diversity and biomass of plant species, growth
forms, native vs. non-native groups, and abiotic ecosystem components (e.g., soil moisture, PAR). We manipulated plant litter
(removed vs. left in situ) and nutrient availability (NPK-fertilized vs. unfertilized) for 4 years in 314-m 2 plots, replicated six times, in an old-field grassland. While many of our species-level results supported previously published
studies and theory, our plant group results generally did not. Specifically, grass species richness and forb biomass was not
affected by either fertilization or plant litter. Moreover, plant litter removal significantly increased non-native plant
species richness. Relative to native plant species, all of our experimental manipulations significantly increased both the
biomass and the species richness of non-native plant species. Thus, this grassland system was sensitive to management treatments
through the facilitation of non-native plant species. We coupled biotic and abiotic components within a nonmetric multidimensional
scaling (NMS) analysis to investigate treatment effects, which revealed that specific treatments altered ecosystem development.
These results suggest that fertilization and plant litter may have larger impacts on plant communities and on ecosystem properties
than previously understood, underscoring the need for larger-scale and longer-term experiments. 相似文献

We aimed to determine the grazing impact on soil nitrogen (N) mineralization and N leaching in a temperate mixed forest on Mt. Ohdaigahara, central Japan, where Sika deer ( Cervus nippon Temminck; hereafter deer) grazing has decreased biomass of Sasa nipponica Makino et Shibata (hereafter sasa) that dominates the forest understory. Soil N mineralization and N leaching of the top 0.3-m layer were measured in situ from 2006 to 2007 by an ion-exchange resin core method inside and outside a deer exclosure. Deer grazing decreased the carbon to nitrogen (C:N) ratio of sasa litter because of the declining dead culm C:N ratio and the increasing ratio of leaves with a lower C:N ratio than culms in the aboveground biomass. Grazing increased N mineralization and nitrification rates as well as annual N (ammonium-N and nitrate-N) and nitrate-N leaching. In contrast, deer grazing did not increase the total soil C and N content. The positive effect of grazing on the N mineralization rate may have resulted from a qualitative change in sasa litter due to grazing. The higher annual N leaching resulting from deer grazing may have been related to the facilitated N mineralization rate and decreased N uptake in plants, e.g., sasa with less aboveground biomass due to grazing. 相似文献

凋落物分解是生态系统营养物质循环的核心过程,而土壤微生物群落在凋落物分解过程中扮演着极其重要且不可替代的角色。随着生物多样性的丧失日益严峻,探讨凋落物多样性及组成对凋落物分解和土壤微生物群落的影响,不仅有助于了解凋落物分解的内在机制,而且可为退化草原生态系统的恢复提供参考。以内蒙古呼伦贝尔草原退化恢复群落中的草本植物为研究对象,依据植物多度、盖度、频度和物种的重要值及其在群落中的恢复程度筛选出排序前4的羊草( Leymus chinensis)、茵陈蒿( Artemisia capillaris)、麻花头( Serratula centauroides)、二裂委陵菜( Potentilla bifurca)的凋落物为实验材料,通过设置3种凋落物多样性水平(1,2,4),包括11种凋落物组合(单物种凋落物共4种,两物种凋落物混合共6种,四物种凋落物混合共1种),利用磷脂脂肪酸(PLFA)方法来研究分解60 d后凋落物多样性及组成对凋落物分解和土壤微生物群落的影响。结果表明:(1)凋落物物种多样性仅对C残余率具有显著影响,表现在两物种混合凋落物C残余率显著低于单物种凋落物,而凋落物组成对所观测的4个凋落物分解参数(质量、C、N残余率以及C/N)均具有显著影响;(2)凋落物物种多样性对细菌(B)含量具有显著影响,而凋落物组成对真菌(F)含量具有显著影响,两者对F/B以及微生物总量均无显著影响;(3)冗余分析结果表明凋落物组成与凋落物分解相关指标(凋落物质量、C、N残余率及C/N)和土壤微生物(真菌、细菌含量)的相关关系高于凋落物多样性。(4)进一步建立结构方程模型(Structural Equation Model,SEM)发现,凋落物初始C含量对凋落物质量、C、N残余率及C/N有显著正的直接影响;凋落物木质素含量对凋落物质量、C、N残余率有显著正的直接影响;凋落物初始N含量对N残余率有显著正的直接影响,而对C残余率及C/N有显著负的直接影响;凋落物初始C/N对凋落物质量、N残余率有显著正的直接影响,而对C/N有显著负的直接影响。此外,凋落物初始C、N、木质素含量及C/N均对真菌含量具有显著正影响,并可通过真菌对凋落物质量分解产生显著负的间接影响。以上结果表明该退化恢复区域优势种凋落物分解以初始C、木质素为主导,主要通过土壤真菌影响凋落物的分解进程,这将减缓凋落物的分解速率进而减慢草原生态系统的进程。这些结果为凋落物多样性及组成对自身分解和土壤微生物群落的影响提供了实验依据,也为进一步分析凋落物分解内在机制以及草原生态系统的恢复提供了数据参考。 相似文献

Summary Formation of ammonium during the reduction of nitrate under moderate and strict anaerobic incubation of two topsoils of a
temperate forest catena, an acid mull and an anmoor was studied. In mull, both conditions of incubation caused reduction of
nitrate and release of ammonium. The accumulation of ammonium continued even when there was no nitrate left hence indicating
the formation of ammonium apparently through desamination of organic matter. Whereas, in anmoor neither any such formation
of ammonium nor any significant reduction of nitrate was observed in the case of moderate anaerobic incubation. But under
strict anaerobic incubation, progressive disappearance of nitrate was encountered from the beginning up to 30 days and this
was accompanied by an increasing accumulation of ammonium in this soil. Yet this accumulation stopped when there was no nitrate
left. Thus, the formation of ammonium is caused by the reduction of nitrate in anmoor. 相似文献

2010年9月-2011年10月,在山西省灵空山油松和辽东栎混交林样地采取随机区组设计,研究了地表凋落物和氮添加处理对土壤微生物生物量碳、氮和微生物活性的影响.凋落物处理包括:剔除凋落物(N)、叶凋落物加倍(L)、枝果凋落物加倍(B)和混合凋落物加倍(LB);氮添加量分别为0(N0)、5 g· m-2·a-1(N1)和10 g·m-2·a-1(N2).结果表明:剔除地表凋落物且无氮添加时,油松和辽东栎混交林地的土壤有机碳(SOC)含量显著降低,其他试验处理间对SOC的影响无显著差异.土壤微生物生物量碳(MBC)、氮(MBN)及其活性(MR)的变化范围依次为:262.42 ~ 873.16 mg·kg-1、73.55 ~ 173.85 mg·kg-1和2.38~3.68mg·kg-1·d-1.MBC、MBN和MR两两间呈极显著正相关.氮添加对MBC、MBN和MR均无显著影响;凋落物处理对MR影响显著,表现为混合凋落物加倍处理的MR最高,叶凋落物加倍处理次之,剔除凋落物处理最低,而对MBC和MBN无显著影响.凋落物和氮添加处理在整个试验过程中未表现出交互作用.短期的氮添加处理和森林地表凋落物变化对土壤微生物过程的影响有限. 相似文献

土壤微生物是森林生态系统中的重要分解者,在碳和氮循环中起着重要作用,同时也是对环境变化的敏感指示者。采用氯仿熏蒸浸提法测定了我国东北地区5种温带森林土壤微生物生物量碳(Cmic)和氮(Nmic)的季节动态及其在土壤中的垂直变化。结果表明:林型之间Cmic和Nmic差异显著(P0.01)。落叶松林、红松林、蒙古栎林、杨桦林、硬阔叶林的Cmic的变化范围依次为:278937mgkg-1、2181020mgkg-1、313891mgkg-1、5101092mgkg-1、4401911mgkg-1;其Nmic的变化范围依次为:1872mgkg-1、18103mgkg-1、2495mgkg-1、43125mgkg-1、40208mgkg-1。所有林型的Cmic和Nmic均随土壤深度的增加而下降。Cmic和Nmic基本上呈现出生长季开始之前下降、生长季结束时上升、其中出现12个峰值的季节变化格局,但峰值大小和出现时间随林型和土壤层次而变。010cm土层的Cmic和Nmic季节变化较大。Cmic和Nmic与凋落叶量、土壤有机碳含量和土壤总氮含量呈显著正相关。Cmic与土壤含水量呈正相关,而与土壤温度呈负相关。不同林型凋落物数量和组成、土壤理化性质的差异是导致其土壤微生物生物量时空格局差异的主要因素。 相似文献
