崇明东滩湿地自然植被演替过程中储碳及固碳功能变化

采用实地调查与实验室测定相结合的方法，研究了崇明东滩湿地植被演替过程中储碳、固碳功能的变化.结果表明：不同演替阶段的湿地植被的现存碳储量及其分配格局特征存在较大差异.先锋物种海三棱藨草的现存碳储量仅占芦苇现存碳储量的13%；地下根茎为芦苇现存碳储量的主要场所，而地上部分是海三棱藨草碳储量的主要场所.处于潮滩湿地演替中后期的芦苇群落比处在生态演替早期的海三棱藨草群落具有更强的固碳能力，芦苇群落和海三棱藨草群落的年固碳能力分别为(1.63±0.39) kg·m^-2和(0.63±0.28) kg·m^-2，说明随着海三棱藨草群落向芦苇群落演替，其固碳能力不断增强.

Carbon storage and carbon fixation during the succession of natural vegetation in wetland ecosystem on east beach of Chongming Island.

Vegetation is an important biological factor in the ecological succession of wetland, and the main factor affecting the carbon storage and carbon fixation in wetland ecosystem. By the methods of field survey and lab analysis, this paper studied the carbon storage and carbon fixation during the succession of wetland vegetation on east beach of Chongming Island, and the results showed that there existed greater differences in the existing carbon storage and its allocation in wetland vegetation at its different succession stages. The existing carbon storage of the pioneer plant Scirpus mariqueter was much less than that of Phragmites australis, only accounted for about 13% of the latter. The underground rhizome of P. australis and the aboveground part of S. mariqueter were the main sites of existing carbon storage. P. australis at the later succession stage of wetland vegetation had a stronger capability of carbon fixation than S. mariqueter at the earlier succession stage of the vegetation, with the values being (1.63 +/- 0.39) kg x m(-2) x a(-1) and (0.63 +/- 0.28) kg x m(-2) x a(-1), respectively, suggesting that during the succession of S. mariqueter community to P. australis community, the carbon fixation capability of the wetland ecosystem became stronger.
