摘要: 生物结皮是干旱半干旱区影响土壤风蚀的关键因子,但目前其分布如何影响地表侵蚀空间分异尚不明确,阻碍了对生物结皮抗风蚀机制的理解及风蚀精准防控。本研究通过室内风洞试验,结合SfM近景摄影测量技术,研究生物结皮分布格局(棋盘、条带和随机)对风蚀空间分布的影响。结果表明:1)与裸土相比,随机、条带和棋盘3种分布格局的生物结皮坡面风蚀速率和输沙率均降低,风蚀速率分别显著降低85.6%、60.4%和57.3%,近地表(0~6 cm)输沙率分别降低84.0%、45.3%和34.8%。2)受生物结皮分布格局的影响,坡面侵蚀空间分布差异显著。随机格局坡面侵蚀区分布破碎,主要分布在坡面四周和生物结皮斑块隔开的细小通径,侵蚀强度不大,侵蚀深度主要分布在0~2 mm;条带格局坡面侵蚀区和沉积区相间分布,侵蚀在裸土斑块内连续分布,侵蚀深度主要在0~4 mm;棋盘格局坡面上风向区域侵蚀最严重,坡中区域较弱且不连续,多分布在裸土斑块边缘,侵蚀深度集中在0~4 mm。3)与裸土坡面相比,生物结皮坡面平均侵蚀深度降低2~4 mm,侵蚀面积占比和侵蚀体积分别降低23.4%~39.8%和54.6%~74.0%,沉积面积和沉积体积分别增加7.2~10.0和8.3~15.4倍。4)不同分布格局生物结皮坡面沉积能力相近,随机格局坡面呈现弱侵蚀,抗风蚀能力最强;条带和棋盘格局坡面均呈现较强侵蚀,抗风蚀能力较弱。生物结皮分布格局通过影响裸土斑块间连接程度,改变风蚀发生位置和输沙路径,从而影响风蚀强度。

Abstract: Biological soil crusts (biocrusts) are key factors influencing soil wind erosion in arid and semi-arid regions. However, the effects of their spatial distribution on the spatial differentiation of surface erosion remain unclear, hindering the understanding of the mechanisms of resistance to wind erosion and the precision prevention and control of wind erosion. We investigated the effects of biocrust distribution patterns (checkerboard, strip, and random) on the spatial distribution of wind erosion through wind tunnel experiments combined with structure from motion (SfM). The results showed that: 1) Compared with bare soil, both wind erosion rates and sediment transport rates decreased on biocrust slopes with random, strip, and checkerboard distribution patterns. Wind erosion rates were significantly reduced by 85.6%, 60.4%, and 57.3%, respectively, while the near-surface (0-6 cm) sediment transport rates decreased by 84.0%, 45.3%, and 34.8%, respectively. 2) The spatial distribution of slope erosion varied significantly across the biocrust distribution patterns. On the random-pattern slope, soil erosion areas were fragmented, mainly distributed around the slope periphery and in narrow pathways separated by biocrust patches. The relatively low erosion intensity and erosion depth mainly ranged from 0 to 2 mm. On the strip-pattern slope, soil erosion and deposition areas were alternately distributed, with erosion continuously occurring within bare-soil patches and erosion depth mostly ranging from 0 to 4 mm. On the checkerboard-pattern slope, erosion was most severe in the upwind region, weaker and discontinuous in the mid-slope region, and mostly distributed at the edges of bare-soil patches, with erosion depth concentrating between 0 and 4 mm. 3) Compared with the bare-soil slope, the average erosion depth on biocrust-covered slopes decreased by 2-4 mm. The proportion of erosion area and erosion volume decreased by 23.4%-39.8% and 54.6%-74.0%, respectively. The deposition area and deposition volume increased by 7.2-10.0 and 8.3-15.4 times, respectively. 4) The deposition capacities of slopes with different biocrust distribution patterns were similar. The random-pattern slope showed weak erosion and the strongest resistance to wind erosion, whereas both the strip- and checkerboard-pattern slopes showed relatively strong erosion and weaker resistance to wind erosion. The distribution pattern of biocrusts could influence the connectivity among bare-soil patches and change the locations where wind erosion occurs and the sediment transport pathways, with consequence on wind erosion intensity.
