摘要: 气候变化引发的季节性雪被改变可能对高寒森林土壤氮循环产生深刻影响.以遮雪棚去除雪被,研究了雪被去除样方和对照样方在不同关键时期(雪被初期、深雪被期和雪被融化期)土壤氮库和矿化速率的变化.结果表明: 季节性雪被对土壤具有良好的保温作用,雪被去除使得5 cm深度土壤平均温度和最低温度分别降低0.33和1.17 ℃,并明显增加了土壤冻结深度和冻融循环.土壤活性氮在不同雪被时期存在显著差异.雪被去除使得冬季土壤铵态氮、硝态氮和可溶性有机氮增加38.6%、23.5%和57.3%.此外,雪被去除也促进了融化期土壤硝化和矿化速率的增加.因此,未来气候变暖引起的雪被减少可能加快川西亚高山森林冬季土壤氮循环.

Abstract: Warming-induced decrease in seasonal snow cover has a great potential to affect soil nitrogen cycle in alpine cold forest ecosystems. In this study, a wooden-shelter method was used to remove the snow accumulation. Soil nitrogen pools and mineralization rates in the snow removal and control plots were measured synchronously in three critical periods (early snow cover, deep snow cover and snow cover melting) in a subalpine spruce forest of western Sichuan, China. Seasonal snow cover kept soil from cold air temperature. Snow removal decreased average and minimum soil temperatures (5 cm) by 0.33 and 1.17 ℃, respectively. In addition, snow removal caused a positive effect on soil frost depth and freeze-thaw cycle. There was a significant dynamic in soil labile nitrogen pool among different periods. Snow removal on average increased NH4+-N, NO3--N and dissolved organic nitrogen (DON) contents by 38.6%, 23.5% and 57.3%, respectively, over the winter. Moreover, snow removal increased soil net nitrification and mineralization rates in the snow co-ver melting period. Overall, warming-induced decrease in snow cover could stimulate winter soil nitrogen cycle of subalpine forests.
