The carbon accumulation and dissipation features of sub-alpine woodland in Mt. Gongga

Based on biomass investigations, soil respiration and plant photosynthesis measurement of dominant trees in Hailuogou valley of Mt. Gongga, Southwest China, the carbon (C) storage, absorption and release for several typical woodlands in sub-alpine zones have been discussed. For Abies fabri forest of 3,000 m above sea level, the C storage amount is 177.4 t/ha for above-ground biomass and 143.2 t/ha for soil below-ground biomass. The annual gross C fixed by vegetation photosynthesis is 20-24 t/ha. The C release by canopy respiration is 3.0-5.5 t/ha for arbors and 10-19 t/ha for surface soil and roots. The annual net C fixed of forest ecosystem is about 6.0-7.1 t/ha. At lower elevations, the amount of C released by woodlands is higher than that of woods at higher elevations. The C fixed capacity of renewed forest with middle-aged trees is higher than that of mature forest. Before becoming over-matured forest, woodland is an important sink of C whereas bareland in woods is the source of atmospheric C.

贡嘎山亚高山林地碳的积累与耗散特征

根据贡嘎山海螺沟内5种主要林地上的生物量调查、土壤呼吸和光合作用测定,研究亚高山地区典型林带上C的存贮、吸收和排放关系。对于海拔3000 m附近的峨眉冷杉林,其地上和地下C贮量分别为177.4 t/hm²和143.2 t/hm²,森林光合作用吸收的C量在22～24 t/hm²·a之间,通过呼吸释放C量为3～5.5 t/hm²·a (乔木冠层) 和10～19 t/hm²·a (地面土壤及根系),年光合作用净固定的C为7.05 t/hm²。低海拔处生态系统C的呼吸量较大,100a以内的中幼龄树木固C能力高于成熟林的固C作用。林地在成为过熟林之前主要还是C的汇,林间裸地是大气的C源。

新疆3种主要森林类型根系生物量变化特征研究

根系生物量是准确评估森林生态系统碳储量及碳汇功能的一个重要数据。采用标准木全收获法研究了新疆3种主要森林树种根系生物量,并分析了其在垂直梯度上的分配规律和随年龄的变化特点。结果表明：（1）新疆杨、西伯利亚落叶松和阿勒泰冷杉根系总生物量分别为43.409、42.152 t/hm²和16.19 t/hm²;（2）根系生物量随土壤深度增加迅速减少,约88.37%以上的根系生物量集中分布在0～40 cm土层中,在超过40 cm土层中,根系生物量降至较低水平（约为8.3%）;（3）随林分年龄的增长,各林分根系总生物量呈递增趋势,在中龄林根系生物量增长速率达到最大。各级根系中粗根、中根及细根生物量随年龄的增长所占比例呈现递减规律,而其根桩和毛细根生物量差异较大,所占比例随年龄的增大基本呈增大趋势;（4）在表层土壤中各林分在林木的幼龄及中龄阶段根系生物量都处于较高比例,之后呈下降趋势后维持在一定水平基本不变,而深层土壤中各林分在幼龄阶段都处于一个较低的水平,后以一定比例逐渐增长;（5）新疆杨、西伯利亚落叶松和阿勒泰冷杉根系年平均生产力分别为：1.070 8 t·hm^-2·a^-1、1.014 4 t·hm^-2·a^-1和0.910 7 t·hm^-2·a^-1。     

干旱区油蒿生物量凋落分解与土壤呼吸

生物量的凋落分解与土壤呼吸影响流沙基质中CaCO3的淋溶和淀积。为研究腾格里沙漠油蒿群落中土壤CaCO3的形成,对油蒿当年生物量的凋落分解与土壤呼吸进行了探讨。结果表明：在腾格里沙漠,固定沙地上油蒿当年生物量[（41.51±1.76）g·m-2]显著高于半固定沙地[（32.31±0.92)g·m-2],固定沙地上油蒿叶量籽量和[（32.89±1.34)g·m-2]也显著高于半固定沙地[（19.32±0.64)g·m-2];但不同立地油蒿叶量和籽量的分解速率均大于0.6692 g·g-1·a-1,且油蒿的凋落物需要4.48 a才能达到分解最大值。另一方面,油蒿半固定沙地、油蒿固定沙地和油蒿+冷蒿固定沙地的土壤呼吸速率均存在显著差异;统计分析表明,油蒿+冷蒿固定沙地土壤呼吸速率最低[（7.37±1.07)mg CO2·m-2·h-1]可能与油蒿+冷蒿固定沙地土壤中较高的pH值和较低的土壤呼吸脱氢酶活性有关。可见,干旱区油蒿群落越到固定阶段,凋落量越大,释放的Ca2＋越多,土壤呼吸速率越低,土壤中的pH值越高,而这越有利于土壤中CaCO3的形成。     

Preliminary Estimation of Soil Carbon Sequestration of China’s Forests during 1999-2008

The National Forest Inventory (NFI) is an important resource for estimating the national carbon balance (These data were unpublished data, and we could only obtain the data before 2008 through data search by now). Based on the data from sample plots, the literature, and NFI, as well as the relationships between volume, biomass, annual litterfall and soil respiration of different forest types, the net ecosystem production (NEP), changes in forest biomass carbon storage (△Cbiomass) and non-respiratory losses (NR) of China’s forests during 1999-2008 were estimated, and the forest soil carbon sequestration (△Csoil) was assessed according to the carbon balance principle of the forest ecosystem (△Csoil = NEP - NR - △Cbiomass). The results showed that the total NEP, △Cbiomass, NR and △Csoil values for China’s forests were 157.530, 48.704, 31.033 and 77.793 Tg C yr^-1 respectively, and average NEP, △Cbiomass, NR, and △Csoil values were 101.247, 31.303, 19.945 and 49.999 g C m^-2 yr^-1 respectively. There were large spatial differences in forest soil carbon sequestration in different parts of China. The forest soil in Jiangxi, Hunan, Zhejiang, Fujian, Anhui, Shanxi, Shaanxi, Guangxi and Liaoning served as carbon sources and the carbon released was about 25.507 Tg C yr^-1. The other 22 provinces served as carbon sinks and the average carbon sequestration by forest soil came to 103.300 Tg C yr^-1. This research established a method for evaluating soil carbon sequestration by China’s forests based on the NFI, which is a useful supplement to current statistical data-based studies on the forest ecosystem carbon cycle, and can promote comparable studies on forest soil carbon sequestration with consistent research methods at the regional scale.     

北京森林碳储量海拔梯度上的变化趋势(英文)

像北京这样的中国城市化地区的快速人口和GDP增长已经导致了来自化石燃料的大量CO2排放。森林被认为是最重要的碳汇,可以中和碳排放。本研究基于2009年森林清查数据和森林植被碳含量,采用生物量扩展因子(BEFs)方法评价了北京森林植被碳储量,利用森林凋落物与森林生物量的比例以及凋落物碳含量计算了凋落物碳储量,利用土壤厚度、容重和SOM含量计算了土壤碳储量。我们总结得出,阔叶林是北京森林主要碳库,森林碳储量主要分布在海拔60m的平原地区和60-600m的低山地区。北京森林碳密度几乎随着海拔增加而增加,但是在海拔200-400m地区略有下降,其中植被碳密度在60m的平原地区相对较高,这主要是由于碳密度较高的杨树和落叶松人工林的比例较高以及灌溉、施肥等促进植物碳累积的人工管理措施较多;森林土壤碳密度几乎随着海拔增加而增加,这主要是由于土壤碳输出随着海拔增加而逐渐下降,因为林下种植、灌溉和施肥加速了低海拔地区的土壤异氧呼吸但随着海拔增加而下降,同时海拔200-800m的低山地区常见的土壤侵蚀也会随着林下种植等干扰措施的减少而下降。本研究可以为区域森林生态系统管理者提供保护森林生态系统和改善森林碳储量提供科学知识。     

2005-2013年中国新增造林植被生物量碳库固碳潜力分析

本文利用2005-2013年林业统计年鉴中每个省市新造林面积和遥感分类提取得到的2010年土地覆被类型,结合公开发表的各类森林生长方程和各个时期的森林存活率,估算了中国新造林在2005-2100年生物量碳库变化及其固碳潜力。结果表明：2005-2013年中国新造林面积达到4394×10⁴ hm²,在自然生长状况下,到2020年新造林蓄积量增加16.8亿m³,生物量增加1.6 Pg,生物量碳库0.76 Pg C;新造林生物量碳库在2005-2100年中将增加2.11 Pg C,相当于目前现有森林生物量碳库的25%,约是过去20年森林总碳汇的1.5倍;新造林生物量碳密度逐年增加,最高达到48.1 Mg/hm²。整合林业统计年鉴以及遥感解译的森林类型对新造林生物量固碳潜力分析,研究表明新造林具有较大的碳汇潜力,对中国现有森林碳汇平衡有重要贡献。     

黑河上游山地青海云杉林土壤有机碳特征及其影响因素

以黑河上游祁连山中段青海云杉林为研究对象,分析了不同林区云杉林表层(0~20 cm)土壤有机碳的分布特征及其与气候因子、植被特征和土壤特性的关系。结果表明：祁连山中段3个林区青海云杉林表层土壤有机碳含量为寺大隆林区[(9.38±0.72)%]>西水林区[(7.81±0.43)%]>大河口林区[(6.06±0.30)%],土壤有机碳含量平均值为(7.41±0.28)%,变异系数为37.9%。土壤有机碳含量与海拔、土壤含水量、土壤全氮呈显著正相关关系,而与土壤pH值呈显著负相关关系。经主成分分析表明,海拔和土壤pH值是影响土壤有机碳含量的第一主成分,土壤全氮是第二主成分,云杉林密度是第三主成分,累计解释率为72.47%。
