摘要: |
为了解未来增温条件下,青藏高原高寒草甸凋落物质量如何变化,将有助于增强对高寒草甸生态系统碳源/汇效应的认识。该文通过定位可控的增温试验平台,动态监测了凋落物生物量及其质量的变化。结果表明:增温显著地促进了凋落物的分解速率(F=35.757,P<0.001),降低了凋落物中的C、N含量及其C/N比,但提高了凋落物中的P含量;随着生长季的推移,增温显著增加了木质素含量及木质素/N的比例。说明未来增温条件下,高寒草甸生态系统的C、N循环过程将可能加快。 |

Abstract: |
Understanding how the response of litter quality to warming will increase our ability to predict the change of carbon sink/source of alpine meadow ecosystem under future warming condition. We found that warming(about 15 ℃ enhancement)significantly increased litter decomposition and phosphors concentration,whereas decreased concentrations of carbon and nitrogen,and their ratio in remaining litters. From June to October in 2009,four fields measured results showed that warming significantly promoted the litter decomposition rate(F=35.757,P<0001). These results suggested that warming would increase carbon/nitrogen cycling processes in the alpine region. |
