Abstract:Carbon dioxide fluxes of Kobresia humilis and Potentilla fruticosa shrub meadows, two typical ecosystems in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, were measured by eddy covariance technology and the data collected in August 2003 were employed to analyze the relations between carbon dioxide fluxes and environmental factors of the ecosystems. August is the time when the two ecosystems reach their peak leaf area indexes and stay stable, and also the period when the net carbon absorptions of Kobresia humilis and Potentilla fruticosa shrub meadows reach 56.2 g C·m−2 and 32.6 g C·m−2, with their highest daily carbon dioxide absorptions standing at 12.7 μmol·m−2·s−1 and 9.3 μmol·m−2·s−1, and their highest carbon discharges at 5.1 μmol·m−2·s−1 and 5.7 μmol·m−2·s−1, respectively. At the same photosynthetic photo flux densities (PPFD), the carbon dioxide-uptake rate of the Kobresia humilis meadow is higher than that of the Potentilla fruticosa shrub meadow; where the PPFD are higher than 1,200 μmol·m−2·s−1. The carbon dioxide uptake rates of the two ecosystems declined as air temperature increased, but the carbon dioxide uptake rate of the Kobresia humilis meadow decreased more quickly (−0.086) than that of the Potentilla fruticosa shrub meadow (−0.016). Soil moistures exert influence on the soil respirations and this varies with the vegetation type. The daily carbon dioxide absorptions of the ecosystems increase with increased diurnal temperature differences and higher diurnal temperature differences result in higher carbon dioxide exchanges. There exists a negative correlation between the vegetation albedos and the carbon dioxide fluxes. Translated from Acta Bot Boreal—Occident Sin, 2006, 26(1): 133–142 译自: 西北植物学报]
