塔里木河源流区绿洲土壤含盐量空间变异和格局分析——以岳普湖绿洲为例

基于区域变量理论,在GPS和GIS技术支持下,通过地统计学的半变异函数和Kriging空间插值,以岳普湖绿洲为例,定量分析塔里木河源流区绿洲不同层次土壤盐分的空间异质性。结果表明:0~30cm、30~60cm和60~100cm土壤盐分半方差函数的理论分布模型属于指数模型,100~200cm属于球状模型。不同土层之间的空间自相关范围具有明显的差异,由表层至深层,土壤盐分的自相关范围逐渐增大。土壤盐分的空间格局分析表明,在水平方向上,研究区各层土壤盐分的高值区主要集中分布在人类活动强烈、靠近河渠水源和地势较为低洼区域;在垂直方向上,土壤表层盐分含量最高,向深层逐渐减少。     

基于地统计学的甘肃臭草群落土壤水分空间异质性

土壤水分是植被格局形成和演变的主要因素,土壤水分的空间异质性对于认识干旱区草原植物对环境的响应机制具有重要意义.应用地统计学方法,对祁连山北坡甘肃臭草(Melica przewalskyi)退化草地土壤表层含水量的变异性进行研究.结果表明,臭草型退化草地浅层(0 ～30 cm)土壤水分符合正态分布,土壤含水量沿垂直方向逐渐增大,介于9.56％ ～11.21％.各层土壤水分的变异系数分别为12.97％ (0～10 cm)、8.8％ (10～20 cm)和14.09％ (20～30 cm),均属弱变异;0～ 30 cm土壤含水量具有高度的空间异质性,其中34.92％～42.71％的空间异质性是由空间自相关部分引起的,主要体现在16.87 ～ 69.14 m尺度上.在0～ 10 cm土层,引起土壤水分空间变异的主要因素是植被覆盖度的不同,而在10 ～ 30 cm土层,土壤水分空间变异性主要是根系分布的差异引起的.     

开都河流域下游绿洲表层土壤盐分空间变异特征分析——以焉耆县为例

针对目前干旱区广泛存在的绿洲土壤次生盐渍化问题,基于GIS和地统计学方法,研究开都河流域下游绿洲焉耆县表层土壤的盐分空间变异特征。结果表明:1)0~10cm、10~20cm和20~30cm三层土壤盐分的半方差函数模型均符合高斯模型;随着土壤采样深度的增加,其空间变程递增,C0+C均为50%,属于中等空间相关性。2)土壤盐分在水平方向上,0~5g/kg(非盐化和轻盐化)呈片状分布,而5g/kg(中度、重度盐化和盐土)呈斑块状分布在中部和低洼地区;在垂直方向上,0~10cm土壤盐分含量最高,且随着土层深度的增加,土壤盐分递减。     

沙坡头固沙植被若干土壤物理因子的空间异质性研究

采用地统计学的理论和方法,对沙坡头人工植被表层土壤(0~15 cm, 15~30 cm)物理因子的空间异质性进行了研究。传统统计学分析结果显示:土壤水分、容重平均值在0~15 cm层小于 15~30 cm层,毛管持水量、空隙度在0~15 cm层大于15~30 cm层,各因子变异系数在0~15 cm层均大于 15~30 cm层。变异函数分析结果表明:土壤水分、土壤容重、土壤毛管持水量和空隙度在0~15 cm层具有明显的空间异质性,表层土壤水分有效变程最大为28.2 m,土壤毛管持水量有效变程最小为13.8 m,各因子自相关部分的空间异质性变化范围在85.3%~99.9%之间,显著大于随机部分的空间异质性。15~30 cm层土壤容重、毛管持水量、空隙度为线性模型。在 Krig ing插值分析的基础上,绘制了土壤属性各因子的等值分布彩图,清楚直观地表达了各因子在空间上的分布。此外还分析讨论了土壤空间异质性和植被的关系。

采用GPS定位技术,在陆良烟区采集土壤样品341个。采用经典统计学、地统计学和分形数学相结合的方法研究了土壤粒径分布及其分形特征的总体特征、空间变异特征,同时分析了土壤粒径分形维数与土壤颗粒组成及土壤养分的关系,以及土壤粒径及其分形维数的影响因素。结果表明,土壤颗粒含量及其分形维数在不同质地土壤间存在显著或极显著水平差异;粘粒含量和分形维数表现为轻粘土重壤土中壤土轻壤土,砂粒和粉粒含量则相反;土壤颗粒质量分形维数在2.524~2.928之间,平均为2.823;土壤颗粒分形维数与土壤粘粒含量呈极显著正相关关系,与粉粒及砂粒含量呈极显著负相关关系;土壤颗粒分形维数可直观地反映土壤粒径分布;土壤颗粒含量和土壤粒径分形维数均具有中等的空间相关性,其空间变异是由结构性因素和随机性因素共同决定的结果,变程仅为0.12~0.27 km,表明其空间自相关范围较小,空间分布主要呈东西向变化趋势,高低值区域分异和明显;土壤粒径分形维数D值与全氮、全磷、全钾、碱解氮和速效钾呈极显著正相关,与有效磷含量呈极显著负相关,土壤分形维数可用于表征土壤养分状况;海拔高度、有机质、土壤类型、地形、轮作模式均对土壤颗粒含量和土壤粒径分形维数有显著影响。     

喷灌条件下农田土壤水分的空间变异性研究

本试验对喷灌区不同水分处理的麦田进行取样分析,分别测定0～10、10～20、20～40、40～60cm四个层次的土壤水分。应用传统统计学的方法对所取的数据进行了分析,结果表明10～20cm土层受降雨、蒸散和根系等因素的影响最大。通过地统计学的半方差函数分析,发现不同处理的同一层次、同一处理的不同层次的空间相关性均存在差异以及喷灌对土壤水分空间相关性的影响。比较各处理相应层次的变程,其随灌水量的增大而增大,表明喷灌区灌水多的处理水分分布更均匀。所得结论可用于提高水分利用效率和精确农业(灌水)的研究和实践。     

银川鸣翠湖国家湿地公园香蒲、荷花、石菖蒲和芦苇生长区土壤有机碳及其组分含量对比研究

为了了解干旱区城市湿地公园不同植物生长区土壤的储碳能力,在宁夏回族自治区银川市鸣翠湖国家湿地公园中,在香蒲(Typha orientalis)、荷花(Nelumbo nucifera)、石菖蒲(Acorus tatarinowii)和芦苇(Phragmites australis)生长区,分别设置采样地,于2018年5月8日,采集0～10 cm、10～20 cm、20～40 cm和40～60 cm深度的土壤样品,测定土样的有机碳及其组分含量,分析土壤有机碳及其组分含量与土壤其它理化指标的关系。研究结果表明,香蒲、荷花、石菖蒲和芦苇生长区0～60 cm深度各土层的土壤有机碳质量比平均值分别为20.85 g/kg、16.35 g/kg、7.23 g/kg和4.48 g/kg,土壤易氧化碳质量比平均值分别为6.17 g/kg、4.53 g/kg、2.57 g/kg和1.16 g/kg;与其它植物生长区对应深度的土壤有机碳和易氧化碳含量相比,香蒲生长区0～10 cm、10～20 cm和20～40 cm深度土壤有机碳和易氧化碳含量显著偏高,荷花生长区40～60 cm深度土壤有机碳和易氧化碳含量显著偏高;与其它植物生长区对应深度的土壤颗粒有机碳含量相比,香蒲生长区0～10 cm、10～20 cm土壤颗粒有机碳含量显著偏高,荷花生长区20～40 cm和40～60 cm深度土壤颗粒有机碳含量显著偏高;荷花生长区各深度土壤可溶性有机碳含量显著高于其它植物生长区;各植物生长区土壤有机碳含量及其组分的含量与土壤砂粒含量、粉粒含量、全氮含量和pH显著相关。     

长江源多年冻土区热融湖塘的形成对土壤沙化过程的影响

选择长江源区五道梁为研究区域,以典型发育的热融湖塘为研究对象,运用激光粒度仪测得土壤粒径分布,并结合分形模型对高寒草甸土壤颗粒分布与水文过程进行研究。结果表明：热融湖塘的形成加快了长江源区高寒草甸土壤沙质化的进程,随着其影响程度的加剧,黏粒、粉粒含量逐渐减小,砂粒含量逐渐增大,同时土壤颗粒体积分形维数也逐渐减小,并与黏粒、粉粒呈显著正相关,与砂粒含量呈显著负相关,土壤颗粒体积分形维数可代替土壤不同粒径颗粒组成表征土壤沙质化的进程。此外,在热融湖塘影响下的土壤水文过程的改变,是加快土壤沙质化的重要因素之一。     

盐城滩涂土壤剖面有机质组成及分布特征

为了研究盐城滩涂不同植物带土壤剖面有机质含量及其分布规律,分析比较了滩涂互花米草(Spartina alterniflora)滩涂、光滩、芦苇(Phragmites australis)滩涂土壤剖面和不同粒径中有机质含量的分布特征;利用傅里叶红外光谱技术,研究了不同植物带对土壤胡敏酸结构和功能基团的影响。结果表明,互花米草滩涂土壤中有机质含量最大,其他依次为芦苇滩涂、光滩;在垂直方向,土壤有机质含量由表层向深层递减。土壤胡敏酸和富里酸含量与有机质含量变化趋势相同。剖面土壤0.2~0.02 mm粒径的土壤颗粒占所有粒径土壤颗粒的比例最高,光滩40~60 cm土层、互花米草滩涂40~60 cm土层、芦苇滩涂20~40 cm土层的0.2~0.02 mm粒径的土壤颗粒比例分别达到91.2%、85.5%和84.1%。土壤胡敏酸的红外图谱结果显示,不同生态带胡敏酸的光谱吸收峰值位置和幅度大部分一致,在500~1 500 cm-1处吸收峰的数量和幅度有显著差异,表明不同生态带土壤的胡敏酸结构存在差异。互花米草滩涂土壤有机质和胡敏酸含量显著高于芦苇滩涂,且两者都显著高于光滩,表明植物促进土壤有机质和胡敏酸的积累,不同种植物带来的积累速率不同。

Deserts and Aeolian Desertification in China: Book review and some thoughts

Desertification is a global phenomenon that affects about two billion people. It occurs in arid zones where the annual precipitation is below 400 mm, partic- ularly in the marginal areas of the world＇s largest deserts. It is a result of water and wind erosion, over- grazing, global warm-ing, improper soil cultivation, and increased pressure ot population growth, and it causes degradation of soil and natural and agricultural vegetation. The direct result is less food for people and livestock, which influences pop- ulation and animal husbandry fluctuations. Despite ef- forts to combat and reduce desertification, the affected areas are annually increasing.
