川西亚高山三个森林群落的湿林冠蒸发速率

于3个假说和林冠上方2m处的气象变量，采用Penman-Monteith组合模型估算了一个生长季节内川西亚高山林区分别以云杉(SF)、冷杉(FF)和白桦(BF)为优势树种的3个林分的湿林冠蒸发速率(Er)。研究结果表明，SF、FF和BF的湿林冠蒸发量(E)分别为44．51mm、88．51mm和57．8mm，分别占总降雨量的9．2％、16．6％和10．2％。与SF和BF相比，FF具有最高的月平均Er和蒸发比例。SF、FF和BF的平均Er分别为0．097mm／h(变化范围：0．028-0．487mm／h)、0．242mm／h(变化范围：0．068～0．711mm／h)和0．149mm／h(0．060～0．576mm／h)。最高和最低的月平均Er分别在6月(SF、FF和BF分别为0．120mm／h、0．317mm／h和0．169mm／h)和10月(SF、FF和BF分别为0．083mm／h、0．187mm／h和0．101mm／h)。8：00至16：00期间的平均点Er显著高于0：00至8：00以及16：00至0：00期间的平均Er。Er显著的日变化和月变化主要归因于林冠上方的太阳辐射、空气温度和相对湿度的变化。     

Spatial precipitation and evapotranspiration in the typical steppe of Inner Mongolia,China – A model based approach using MODIS data

We present a simple method to derive spatial precipitation (P) and evapotranspiration (ET) for the typical steppe of the Xilin river catchment at 1 km and 8-day resolution during the main vegetation period (23 April to 28 August) of 2006. The hydrological model BROOK90 was parameterised from eddy covariance measurements. The daily model input data, precipitation, minimum (Ta_min) and maximum air temperature (Ta_max), were derived by manipulating MODIS leaf area index (LAI) and surface temperature data. P was estimated based on a linear regression of P measured at several sites against the mean gain of the MODIS LAI of surrounding 3 × 3 pixels areas (R² = 0.76). Ta_min and Ta_max were derived using a relationship between measured Ta_min and Ta_max and MODIS surface temperatures (R² = 0.92 and R² = 0.88, respectively). The mean precipitation was 145 mm; it varied between 52 mm in the north-western region and 239 mm in the eastern region. In spring, the modelled ET was low (<0.8 mm d⁻¹); evaporation dominated over transpiration and spatial differences were small. At the end of June, the mean ET reached its maximum (2 mm d⁻¹) and spatial differences were pronounced. From July on, transpiration dominated over declining evaporation, and spatial differences decreased in August.     

通过现代观测来检验湖面蒸发对中国干旱、半干旱区湖泊水位变化的影响(英文)

Qinghai Lake and Zhuye Lake, ~400 km apart, are located in the northwest margin of the Asian summer monsoon. Water of these two lakes mostly comes from the middle and eastern parts of the Qilian Mountains. Previous studies show that the Holocene climate changes of the two lakes implied from lake records are different. Whether lake evaporation plays a role in asynchronous Holocene climate changes is important to understand the lake records. In this paper, we used modern observations beside Qinghai Lake and Zhuye Lake to test the impact factors for lake evaporation. Pan evaporation near the two lakes is mainly related to relative humidity, temperature, vapor pressure and sunshine duration. But tem-perature has different impacts to lake evaporation of the two lakes, which can affect Holocene millennial-scale lake level changes. In addition, differences in relative humidity on the millen-nial-scale would be more significant, which also can contribute to asynchronous lake records.     

Relating accretion and erosion at an exposed tidal wetland to the bottom shear stress of combined current-wave action

Sediment dynamics have an important influence on the morphological evolution of tidal wetlands, which consist of mudflats and salt marshes. To understand the nature of sediment behavior under combined current-wave action at an exposed tidal wetland, we measured the waves, currents, water depths, bed-level changes, and sediment properties at a mudflat-salt marsh transition on the Yangtze Delta, China, during five consecutive tides under onshore winds of ~ 8 m/s, and calculated the bed shear stresses due to currents (τ_c), waves (τ_w), combined current-wave action (τ_cw), and the critical shear stress for erosion of the bottom sediment (τ_ce). The bed shear stresses under combined current-wave action (τ_cw) were approximately five times higher on the mudflat (up to 1.11 N/m²; average 0.27 N/m²) than on the salt marsh (up to 0.14 N/m²; average, 0.06 N/m²). On the mudflat, τ_cw was larger than the critical erosion shear stress (τ_ce = 0.103 N/m²) for 70% of the period of submergence, whereas τ_cw was always lower than τ_ce at the salt marsh site (τ_ce = 0.116 N/m²). This result indicates that the sediment dynamics on the mudflat were dominated by erosion, whereas at the salt marsh they were governed by deposition, which is in agreement with the observed bed-level change during the study period (− 3.3 mm/tide on the mudflat and 3.0 mm/tide on the salt marsh). A comparison of τ_cw values calculated using the [van Rijn, 1993] and [Soulsby, 1995] models for bed shear stresses under combined current-wave action indicates that both models are applicable to the present case and effectively predict the bottom shear stress under combined current-wave action. Overall, we conclude that τ_cw in combination with τ_ce is useful in assessing the hydrodynamic mechanisms that underlie the morphological evolution of exposed tidal wetlands.     

1960-2007年中国地表潜在蒸散发敏感性的时空变化(英文)

Potential evapotranspiration (E0), as an estimate of the evaporative demand of the atmosphere, has been widely studied in the fields of irrigation management, crop water demand and predictions in ungauged basins (PUBs). Analysis of the sensitivity of E0 to meteorological factors is a basic research on the impact of climate change on water resources, and also is important to the optimal allocation of agricultural water resources. This paper dealt with sensitivity of E0 over China, which was divided into ten drainage systems, including Songhua River basin, Liaohe River basin, Haihe River basin, Yellow River basin, Yangtze River basin, Pearl River basin, Huaihe River drainage system, Southeast river drainage system, Northwest river drainage system and Southwest river drainage system. In addition, the calculation method of global radiation in Penman-Monteith formula was improved by optimization, and the sensitivities of Penman-Monteith potential evapotranspiration to the daily maximum temperature (STmax), daily minimum temperature (STmin), wind speed (SU2), global radiation (SRs) and vapor pressure (SVP) were calculated and analyzed based on the long-term meteorological data from 653 meteorological stations in China during the period 1960-2007. Results show that: (1) the correlation coefficient between E0 and pan evaporation increased from 0.61 to 0.75. E0 had the decline trends in eight of ten drainage systems in China, which indicates that "pan evaporation paradox" commonly exists in China from 1960 to 2007. (2) Spatially, Tmax was the most sensitive factor in Haihe River basin, Yellow River basin, Huaihe River drainage system, Yangtze River basin, Pearl River basin and Southeast river drainage system, and VP was the most sensitive factor in Songhua River Basin, Liaohe River basin, Northwest river drainage system while Rs was the most sensitive factor in Southwest river drainage system. For the nation-wide average, the most sensitive factor was VP, followed by Tmax, Rs, U2 and Tmin. In addition, the changes in sensitivity coefficients had a certain correlation with elevation. (3) Temporally, the maximum values of STmax and SRs occurred in July, while the maximum values of STmin, SVP and SU2 occurred in January. Moreover, trend analysis indicates that STmax had decline trends, while STmin, SU2, SRs and SVP had increasing trends.     

Hargreaves公式在塔克拉玛干沙漠腹地的适用性

对运用Hargreaves公式计算参考作物蒸散量(ET0)在干旱区的适用性存在不同观点。为了求证Hargreaves公式在极端干旱区塔克拉玛干沙漠腹地的适用性,利用2005-2010年塔克拉玛干沙漠研究站的气象资料,以利用Penman-Monteith公式计算的结果为标准,对利用Hargreaves公式计算的ET0进行了对比分析,并对两种计算结果差异的成因进行了阐释。结果表明:在年时间尺度上,利用Hargreaves公式计算的结果略大于利用Penman-Monteith公式计算的结果,标准差介于32.86~35.00 mm,年参考作物蒸散量计算结果呈现弱变异程度;在月时间尺度上,用两种方法计算的参考作物蒸散量呈现中等变异程度,蒸散量绝对偏差介于-3.26~8.73 mm,相对偏差介于-12.20%~29.02%,除了10月与11月,其余月份相对偏差均保持在10%之内。用两种方法计算的10月与11月份ET0产生差异的最主要原因在于有较高的温度较差。最后,经过对年、月参考作物蒸散量进行t-检验及建立回归方程,表明Hargreaves公式适用于极端干旱的塔克拉玛干沙漠腹地。     

冬小麦能量平衡及蒸散分配的季节变化分析

本文分析了华北平原冬小麦生态系统辐射收支、热量平衡以及蒸散在冠层蒸腾和土壤蒸发之间的分配特征。结果发现，在冬小麦生长过程中，系统截获的太阳短波辐射随小麦的生长而变，它占太阳总辐射的比例，初期为０．８左右，尔后随叶面积的增加而逐渐下降，在孕穗期最小，约为０．７５，之后，随叶片枯黄、麦穗的成长又上升，最后可达０．８６。净辐射占太阳总辐射的比例，可分成如下３个阶段：拔节期比值较低，约为０．４５；孕穗抽穗期约为０．５；灌浆期比值最大，约０．５７。随着叶面积指数（ＬＡＩ）的增加，土壤热通量与净辐射之比，由返青初期的０．１３迅速下降，直至较为稳定的０．０６。潜热通量消耗净辐射的大部分，且随ＬＡＩ的增加而增大。从返青到乳熟的５８天内（４月１日～５月２８日），麦田总蒸散量约为２５０ｍｍ，其中土壤蒸发量约为５０ｍｍ，冠层蒸腾约为２００ｍｍ，分别占总蒸散量的２０％和８０％。     

黄河流域降水稳定同位素的云下二次蒸发效应

雨滴从云底降落到地面过程的云下二次蒸发现象会影响雨滴中的同位素比率,明确降水过程中稳定同位素的变化对研究流域水循环具有重要意义。基于全球降水同位素网络（GNIP）、相关文献同位素数据以及气象数据,首先建立局地大气水线（LMWL）定性分析了黄河流域云下二次蒸发与各气象要素间的关系,其次运用改进的Stewart模型定量计算了蒸发剩余比（f）和云底降水与地面降水的D-excess之差（Δd）。结果表明：（1） 黄河流域LMWL方程为：δ²H=7.01δ¹⁸O+1.25（n=293,R²=0.92）,斜率和截距相比GMWL均较小,说明雨滴在下落过程中受到云下二次蒸发的影响。其中0～10 mm的降雨事件对云下二次蒸发影响显著;气温越高,或者水汽压、相对湿度越小,云下二次蒸发越强烈。（2） 季节变化上,从春季到冬季, f和Δd逐渐增大,云下二次蒸发逐渐减小。空间变化上,蒙甘区、蒙中区、晋陕甘区和渭河区的西安,年际间云下二次蒸发变化较大,而青南区、祁连-青海湖区、渭河区的平凉、长武、华山和鲁淮区年际差异较小。（3） 降水中Δd和f之间的线性关系在不同气象要素范围内有不同的数值,由于不同区域各气象条件存在差异,因此在应用经验公式时需考虑研究区的具体气象条件。

Leaf-level physiological responses of Tamarix ramosissima to increasing salinity

Over the past century, the invasive halophytic shrub Tamarix ramosissima Ledeb. has increased in abundance and distribution in riparian ecosystems of western North America. These increases coincide with anthropogenic modification of river systems, which decrease the rate of periodic overbank flooding, leading to an increase in soil salinity. Increased soil salinity negatively impacts the physiology of native riparian tree species, but the impact of increased soil salinity on T. ramosissima physiology is incompletely known. To measure the impacts of soil salinity on T. ramosissima, we measured leaf-level responses across a broad range of surface-soil salinity concentrations at two sites in western Kansas. Photosynthesis at 2000 μmol m⁻² s⁻¹ (A₂₀₀₀), stomatal conductance to water (g_s), intercellular CO₂ concentration (C_i), and leaf δ¹³C showed little change over surface-soil salinities from 0.5 to 17.65 mmhos/cm. The small variation in leaf-level physiological responses suggests robust functioning of T. ramosissima across a broad range of surface-soil salinities. Leaf-level physiology and δ¹³C responses were assessed by canopy position, but responses were not significantly different. These results are among the first to show broad acclimation and robust physiological functioning for many leaf-level processes measured on mature trees grown across a wide surface-soil salinity gradient in the field.     

Carbon exchange rates in Polytrichum juniperinum moss of burned black spruce forest in interior Alaska

The Boreal black spruce forest is highly susceptible to wildfire, and postfire changes in soil temperature and substrates have the potential to shift large areas of such an ecosystem from a net sink to a net source of carbon. In this paper, we examine CO₂ exchange rates (e.g., NPP and Re) in juniper haircap moss (Polytrichum juniperinum) and microbial respiration in no-vegetation conditions using an automated chamber system in a five-year burned black spruce forest in interior Alaska during the fall season of 2009. Mean ± standard deviation microbial respiration and NEP (net ecosystem productivity) of juniper haircap moss were 0.27 ± 0.13 and 0.28 ± 0.38 gCO₂/m²/hr, respectively. CO₂ exchange rates and microbial respiration showed temporal variations following fluctuation in air temperature during the fall season, suggesting the temperature sensitivity of juniper haircap moss and soil microbes after fire. During the 45-day fall period, mean NEP of P. juniperinum moss was 0.49 ± 0.28 MgC/ha following the five-year-old forest fire. On the other hand, simulated microbial respiration normalized to a 10 °C temperature might be stimulated by as much as 0.40 ± 0.23 MgC/ha. These findings demonstrate that the fire-pioneer species juniper haircap moss is a net C sink in the burned black spruce forest of interior Alaska.     

Glacier changes in the Qilian Mountains in the past half-century: Based on the revised First and Second Chinese Glacier Inventory

Glaciers are the most important fresh-water resources in arid and semi-arid regions of western China. According to the Second Chinese Glacier Inventory (SCGI), primarily compiled from Landsat TM/ETM+ images, the Qilian Mountains had 2684 glaciers covering an area of 1597.81±70.30 km2 and an ice volume of ~84.48 km³ from 2005 to 2010. While most glaciers are small (85.66% are <1.0 km²), some larger ones (12.74% in the range 1.0–5.0 km²) cover 42.44% of the total glacier area. The Laohugou Glacier No.12 (20.42 km²) located on the north slope of the Daxue Range is the only glacier >20 km² in the Qilian Mountains. Median glacier elevation was 4972.7 m and gradually increased from east to west. Glaciers in the Qilian Mountains are distributed in Gansu and Qinghai provinces, which have 1492 glaciers (760.96 km²) and 1192 glaciers (836.85 km²), respectively. The Shule River basin contains the most glaciers in both area and volume. However, the Heihe River, the second largest inland river in China, has the minimum average glacier area. A comparison of glaciers from the SCGI and revised glacier inventory based on topographic maps and aerial photos taken from 1956 to 1983 indicate that all glaciers have receded, which is consistent with other mountain and plateau areas in western China. In the past half-century, the area and volume of glaciers decreased by 420.81 km² (–20.88%) and 21.63 km³ (–20.26%), respectively. Glaciers with areas <1.0 km² decreased the most in number and area recession. Due to glacier shrinkage, glaciers below 4000 m completely disappeared. Glacier changes in the Qilian Mountains presented a clear longitudinal zonality, i.e., the glaciers rapidly shrank in the east but slowly in the central-west. The primary cause of glacier recession was warming temperatures, which was slightly mitigated with increased precipitation.     

Effect of grazing intensity on evapotranspiration in the semiarid grasslands of Inner Mongolia,China

The eddy covariance technique was used to measure evapotranspiration (ET) at four different grazing intensity sites to investigate the grazing effects on ET in the semiarid steppe ecosystems of Inner Mongolia. By reducing available energy, and decreasing soil water content (SWC), grazing decreased ET on a seasonal scale compared with the site ungrazed since 1979 (UG79). The most important climatic factor controlling ET on daily scale shifted from SWC to Net radiation (R_n) when grazing intensity increased. SWC, R_n and air temperature (or vapor pressure deficit) can explain 59%–71% of the variation in daily ET. On the other hand, leaf area index (LAI) affected ET slightly at UG79 under the commonly limited soil water conditions. Even no effect of LAI at the heavily grazed site was detected. This suggests that the direct effect of grazing reducing LAI on ET is not significant in this semiarid steppe ecosystem. Soil evaporation compensates for most of the loss in transpiration due to reduced LAI.     

内蒙古半干旱区蒸散估算和归因分析

蒸散(Evapotranspiration,ET)是生态系统水循环中的重要一环,决定了生态系统水分和热量传输。从区域尺度对蒸散及其蒸腾(Transpiration,T)和蒸发(Evaporation,E)组分进行量化,认识环境因素对其的影响机制,有助于合理利用、分配水资源,为研究气候变化对区域生态系统水文循环的影响提供参考。基于生态系统生产力模拟(Boreal ecosystem productivity simulator,BEPS)模型,验证模型在研究区域的适用性,量化1981—2018年内蒙古半干旱区的ET及其组分的变化情况,并对其进行归因分析。结果表明：经不同数据验证,BEPS模型计算结果能够精确反应研究区域ET及其组分的分布情况和变化趋势。1981—2018年研究区草地、农田和森林多年平均ET分别为278.22 mm、362.50 mm和308.81 mm。E、T和ET多年呈显著上升趋势,上升速率分别为0.42mm·a^-1、0.63 mm·a^-1和1.05 mm·a^-1。ET与T在全区域内空间分布格局相似,与E...

Sand transport under increased lateral jetting of raindrops induced by wind

Wind tunnel experiments for ‘Raindrop Detachment and Wind-Driven Transport’ (RD–WDT) process were conducted under improved lateral jetting induced by wind velocities of 6.4, 10, and 12 m s^− 1 at nozzle operating pressures of 75, 100, and 150 kPa. Wind-driven rainfalls were also incident on the windward and leeward slopes of 4° and 9° to have a broad variation in the angle of incidence. The objective of this experimental set-up was to distinguish the roles of both impact components of obliquely striking wind-driven raindrops on RD and wind on WDT. Raindrop impact components and reference horizontal wind were quantified by normal (E_tz) and horizontal (E_tx) kinetic energy fluxes and wind shear velocity (u), respectively, to physically model the process of RD–WDT. The results showed, at each level of u, differential sand transport rates by RD–WDT (q_m(RD–WDT)) occurred depending on the magnitude of raindrop impact components, and q_m(RD–WDT) increased as the relative contribution of E_tz increased. Although E_tx was more correlated with q_m(RD–WDT) than E_tz, the extreme increases in E_tx at the expense of E_tz brought about no increases but decreases in q_m(RD–WDT). An RD–WDT model was built under the process of examining the discrete effects of E_tz and E_tx on RD together with u and resulted in a better coefficient of determination (R² = 0.89) than only total kinetic energy (E_t) did alone with u (R² = 0.84). In this study, E_tx was strongly related to u and not to E_tz, which was the principal difference from the previous rainsplash studies, which relied on the compensatory lateral jet development by the compressive pressure build-up at the raindrop–soil interface. Including E_tx in the RD–WDT model both separated the distinct role of each raindrop impact component in RD and improved the performance of u in WDT by better distinguishing its interaction with E_tx, which was not explicitly separated in previous models of RD–WDT.     

苏打盐碱土地区不同土地利用类型的地表水分蒸渗特征

选择东北松嫩平原西部典型地区,采用FAO56方法和实际田间定期观测相结合,分析了当地旱田和碱斑地两种主要土地利用类型地表水分蒸散和入渗特征及其对土地盐碱化的影响。结果表明:对于玉米地这样相对蒸散量比较大的旱作农田来讲,水分亏缺和盐碱化主要发生在根层,而对表层土壤,即使在偏干旱年份,仍然有足够的水分入渗量来维持盐分平衡。碱斑地随着植被的破坏,总体上表层土壤蒸发和入渗量基本平衡,但是由于土壤水分蒸发过程中盐分浓度要比入渗过程中的盐分浓度大,表层土壤依然向盐碱化方向发展。采取适当的土地利用方式,建立耗水量与该地区降雨水平相适应的植被系统是控制区域土地盐碱化发展的关键。     

沙漠人工植被区土壤蒸发测定

在2003年生长季,应用自制的微型蒸渗仪(Micro Lysimeter)、大型称重式蒸渗仪(Lysimeter)和TDR对比测定沙漠油蒿(Artemisia ordosica)和柠条(Caragana korshinskii)人工植被区与裸沙土壤蒸发,结果表明:在沙漠人工植被区由于植被比较稀疏,土壤蒸发不受植株的遮阴的影响,但不同样地的蒸发量是有差异的,而样地和位置间的互作不显著。为提高蒸发测定精度,建议微型蒸渗仪勤于换土,尤其是在大降水发生之后;将横插式 TDR探头改为竖插式能探测到小降水后的蒸发量。在沙漠区有很大比例的蒸发发生在紧接降水之后。以微型蒸渗仪的测定结果为主,结合大型称重式蒸渗仪的测定结果推算出整个试验期间的裸沙、油蒿和柠条样地的蒸发量为 111.6mm、93.8 mm和99.3 mm,油蒿和柠条样地的蒸发量分别占同期蒸散量的45.1%和43.6%;油蒿和柠条样地均以8月份日蒸发量0.93 mm·d^-1和1.10 mm·d^-1最高,5月份日蒸发量0.30 mm·d^-1和0.28 mm·d^-1最低。     

Two centuries of temperature variation and volcanic forcing reconstructed for the northern Tibetan Plateau

Abstract

The northern Tibetan Plateau has been subject to recent warming far above the global average. With few instrumental climate records available for this region before the 1950s, paleoclimatic reconstructions must be used to understand annual-to-centennial-scale climate variations and local climate response to large-scale forcing mechanisms. We developed a maximum latewood density chronology of Qinghai spruce (Picea crassifolia) from the southern slope of the Qilian Mountains, northern Tibetan Plateau. Based on the chronology, we reconstructed August–September temperature for 1780–2008. The temperature reconstruction model accounts for 39.7% of instrumental temperature variance from 1957 to 2008, successfully capturing the most recent warming. Superposed epoch analysis indicated a volcanic forcing for temperature, resulting in pulses of cooler conditions that can persist for 2–4 years. Tree-ring data indicated that warm-dry and cold-wet climate combinations mainly occurred in northern Tibetan Plateau before CE 1900, and revealed a clear wetting and warming trend since the 1980s. Our study provides long-term perspective on recent climate change in northern Tibetan Plateau to guide expectations of future climate variability and aid sustainable development, and provides scenarios for climate change adaptation and inputs for climate models representing a broader range of conditions than those of historical climate records.     

Climatic response of thick leaf spruce (Picea crassifolia) tree-ring width at different elevations over Qilian Mountains, northwestern China

Tree-ring cores of thick leaf spruce (Picea crassifolia) taken from four sites at different elevations, in the middle of the Qilian Mountains, in the arid and semi-arid region of northwestern China, were used to develop four tree-ring width chronologies using standard dendrochronological methods. Results indicate that with increasing altitude the chronologies’ year-to-year variations decreased. Hence, the sensitivity of the tree-ring chronologies to climate decreases with altitude. Further analysis showed that the significant limiting factor on tree growth is spring precipitation. Measurements of stomata density and leaf dry weight suggest the species’ ecological adaptation strategy changes with elevation. At high elevation the metabolic rate of thick leaf spruce decreases, thus showing the effect of the climate.
