地下水灌溉对华北平原农田土壤碳库转化影响

Effect of Groundwater Irrigation on Agricultural Soil Carbon Pool in North China Plain

  • 摘要: 为揭示区域尺度上地下水灌溉对农田土壤碳库转化的作用机制,选取华北平原高灌溉定额区、低灌溉定额区及无灌溉背景区为研究对象,分析土壤深度0~700 cm剖面范围内碳含量及碳储量的变化特征,并结合稳定碳同位素源解析技术,采用端元混合模型定量评估地下水灌溉条件下不同来源的土壤碳对土壤碳库的贡献率.结果表明:①地下水灌溉对土壤有机碳(SOC)储量影响不显著,但是显著增加了土壤无机碳(SIC)储量,具体趋势表现为无灌溉背景区(43.8 kg/hm2) < 低灌溉定额区(46.9 kg/hm2) < 高灌溉定额区(79.9 kg/hm2);垂向剖面数据进一步显示,灌溉区与无灌溉区碳密度在土壤深度100~300 cm处存在显著差异(p < 0.01).②碳含量及稳定碳同位素相关分析表明,无灌溉条件下SOC和SIC间转化关系较为明显;而在地下水灌溉区SOC与SIC相关性较弱.地下水溶解性无机碳(DIC)输入成为灌溉区土壤无机碳库的主控因素.③稳定碳同位素源解析表明,SOC以C3植物来源为主,无灌溉区DIC主要来源于SOC转化,其占比在10.6%~25.8%之间;灌溉区DIC则主要来源地下水灌溉,占比范围为74.0%~89.8%.研究显示,地下水灌溉外源输入的DIC显著提高了SIC的储量,对区域土壤碳库组成及转化过程产生重要的直接影响.

     

    Abstract: In order to reveal the influence of groundwater irrigation on the soil carbon(C) cycle on a regional scale, the non-irrigated area, low irrigation area, and high irrigation area in the North China Plain were chosen as the research object in this study. The vertical distribution of C content and changes in C storage from 0 to 700 cm were measured in these areas. Then, the end member model and stable C isotope source analysis technology were used to quantitatively evaluate the contribution of different sources to soil C pools under groundwater irrigation conditions. The results showed that: (1) Groundwater irrigation had no significant effect on soil organic carbon (SOC) storage, but groundwater irrigation significantly increased soil inorganic carbon (SIC) storage in the irrigated area, and it showed an increasing trend with the increase of irrigation volume (43.8, 46.9, 79.9 kg/hm2, respectively). In addition, the vertical profiles showed that there was a significant difference in C density between irrigation and non-irrigated areas at a depth of 100-300 cm. (2) According to the result of correlation analysis, the conversion relationship between SOC and SIC was strong under non-irrigated conditions, and relatively weak under irrigation conditions. It could be attributed to the external input of dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) from groundwater, which became a controlling factor for the soil C pool. (3) Based on stable C isotopes source analysis, SOC mainly came from C3 plants, and SIC of non-irrigated area mainly came from SOC conversion, accounting for 10.6%-25.8%, while irrigation area SIC came from groundwater irrigation and reached 74.0%-89.8%. The results showed that the DIC input from groundwater irrigation significantly increased the SIC storage and had a vital impact on the composition and transformation process of the regional soil C pool.
