摘要: 北极夏季无冰区苔原CO2的释放对全球碳循环起着重要的作用。在第4次北极科学考察(2008年7月26日—8月5日)期间, 采用密闭箱法在北极新奥尔松(Ny-Ålesund)黄河站区附近的鸟类保护区苔原(Tundra in Seabird Sanctuary, TSB)、普通海滩苔原(Tundra in Non-seabird Colony, TNS)和两者间的过渡苔原(Tundra in Transition Zone, TTR)监测CO2净通量(Net CO2 Fluxes, NEE)空间变异规律及其影响因素。结果表明: 鸟类保护区苔原TSB的平均 NEE为(–39.0±6.0)mg·m–2·h–1, 为CO2吸收汇, 且对CO2的吸收随着植被覆盖度和海鸟活动强度的增强而显著增强; 普通海滩苔原TNS和过渡苔原TTR的平均NEE分别为 (12.0± 6.3)mg·m–2·h–1和(40.5±29.3)mg·m–2·h–1, 均为CO2净排放源。普通海滩苔原TNS的CO2排放强度随土壤水分的减少和地势增高而增强; 过渡苔原TTR中高地苔原区的平均NEE为(106.4±23.1)mg·m–2·h–1, 为CO2强排放源; 而泥炭苔原区的平均NEE为(–58.3±9.5)mg·m–2·h–1, 为CO2强吸收汇。苔原土壤的理化性质对苔原NEE有重要影响, 鸟类保护区苔原TSB和普通海滩苔原TNS的NEE与土壤含水率呈显著负相关关系(r= –0.44, P=0.003)。鸟类保护区苔原TSB的NEE与土壤温度弱正相关(r=0.32, P=0.06), 与NH4+-N(P <0.05)和NO3-N(P <0.05)含量均显著负相关。在全球变暖的驱使下, 不同地形地貌和海鸟活动特征的北极苔原区域CO2排放的复杂性将显著增强, 对全球碳循环产生较大的影响, 本研究也将为此提供科研资料。

Abstract:

The release of CO2 from summer ice-free tundra of the high Arctic plays an important role in the global carbon cycle. These net ecosystem exchanges (NEEs) and their influence factors from Seabird Sanctuary Tundra (TSB), Tundra in Non-Seabird Colony (TNS) and Tundra in Transition Zone (TTR) were measured using the closed chamber method during the Fourth Arctic Scientific Exploration (26 July–5 August 2008) in the High Arctic. The spatial variations of NEE show that TSB was a sink for CO2, with an average NEE of (−39.0±6.0) mg·m−2·h−1. Typically, absorption of CO2 in areas with high vegetation cover and strong seabird usage was greater than in areas with lower vegetation cover and seabird usage. In contrast, TNS and TTR were emission sources for CO2, with average NEEs of (12.0±6.3) mg·m−2·h−1 and (40.5±29.3) mg·m−2·h−1, respectively. Highland TTR ((106.4±23.1) mg·m−2·h−1) was the strongest emission source, while peatland TTR [(−58.3±9.5) mg·m−2·h−1] was a strong sink. Spatial variation of NEEs was linked to differences in vegetation cover and hydrological conditions related to seabird activity in all tundra types. Physical and chemical properties of tundra soils also affected NEE values, showing negative correlations with soil moisture (r=−0.44, P=0.003) in TSB and TNS, but a positive correlation with soil temperature (r=0.32, P=0.06) and negative correlations with NH4+-N (P<0.05) and NO3-N (P<0.05) concentrations in TSB.
