摘要: 依托内蒙古乌兰察布市四子王旗境内短花针茅荒漠草原的10a放牧强度(不放牧、轻度放牧、重度放牧)试验平台,于2012年和2013年在荒漠草原生长季(5-10月),设计放牧嵌套灌水的控制试验,以不灌水和不放牧为对照,研究净生态系统碳交换速率(net ecosystem exchange,NEE)、净生态系统呼吸速率(ecosystem respiration,RE)和总生态系统碳交换速率(gross ecosystem exchange,GEE)对不同水分条件(灌水、非灌水)和不同放牧强度的响应。结果表明:(1)荒漠草原生长季表现为净碳吸收(NEE和GEE<0)。不放牧条件下灌水通过增加土壤体积含水量(soli volumetric water content,Vwc)间接增加RE和生态系统碳吸收(P<0.01),NEE、RE和GEE对灌水带来的土壤水分变化较为敏感。(2)不灌水条件下,NEE、RE和GEE在不同放牧强度处理中的差异并不显著,但8月后放牧带来的ΔNEE和ΔGEE正偏差显著大于8月前的负偏差(P<0.001)。(3)灌水和放牧的交互作用对NEE、RE和GEE均无显著影响,但放牧条件下增加Vwc可以增加生态系统碳吸收和呼吸作用。区分放牧强度时,RE和GEE对Vwc的线性回归模型斜率的绝对值在不放牧时最大(分别为0.26和0.61),说明放牧导致荒漠草原生态系统碳交换对土壤水分变化的敏感性减小。

Abstract: Based on a long term grazing experiment (10 years) that includes no grazing (CK), light grazing (LG) and heavy grazing (HG) over a Stipa breviflora desert steppe in Siziwang, Wulanchabu, Inner Mongolia, China, a manipulative experiment of water input was conducted during 2012?2013. The grazing plots were treated as the block factor for nested water treatments. We aimed at exploring the responses of net ecosystem exchange (NEE), ecosystem respiration (RE) and gross ecosystem exchange (GEE) of carbon under two water additions: irrigation vs no-irrigation. We found that: (1) the desert steppe was a net carbon sink. Irrigation indirectly increased RE and the ecosystem carbon sink by elevating soil volumetric water content (Vwc) without grazing (P<0.01). NEE, RE and GEE were found to be more sensitive to Vwc due to irrigation (P<0.001). (2) The differences in NEE, RE and GEE among the grazing treatments were not significant under no-irrigation treatment, whereas positive deviations of ΔNEE and ΔGEE with grazing after August were significantly greater than the negative deviations before August (P<0.001). (3) The interactive contributions from irrigation and grazing treatments produced no significant effect on NEE, RE and GEE, but increased Vwc under grazing that enhanced ecosystem carbon sink and RE. When the grazing intensity was explored, both the magnitudes and changes of RE and GEE with Vwc at grazed sites were higher than those at no grazing plots (0.26 and 0.61, respectively), indicating that grazing resulted in a decrease in the sensitivity of carbon exchange to Vwc.
