摘要: 生态化学计量学是研究生态系统物质平衡与过程调控的关键理论基础。探究林龄对碳(C)、氮(N)、磷(P)化学计量特征和生态系统碳储量分配格局的影响, 能够为解析人工林生态系统生物地球化学循环机制及其生态功能提供科学依据。该研究以太行山东麓不同林龄(4、8、12和16年生)核桃(Juglans regia)林为研究对象, 分析其乔木层与土壤层C、N、P化学计量及碳储量变化特征。结果表明: 1)乔木层各器官(根、干、枝、叶) C平均含量分别为437.17、449.87、448.16和441.39 g·kg-1; 随林龄增长而增加, 但林龄间差异并不显著。各器官N、P含量范围分别为4.15-26.68 g·kg-1和0.59-1.95 g·kg-1, 随林龄增长呈显著降低趋势; C:N和C:P显著升高, 而N:P无显著变化。2)受人为经营措施影响, 土壤层C、N、P含量随林龄增长呈先降低后升高的趋势, 且林龄间差异显著; C:N、C:P与N:P变化趋势与养分含量相一致。3)土壤C和N含量呈极显著正相关关系; 叶片C与N含量呈显著负相关关系, 叶片N与P含量呈显著正相关关系; 土壤P与叶片N、枝条P、树干P和N含量之间均呈显著正相关关系。4) 4、8、12和16年生核桃林生态系统总碳储量分别为167.59、123.69、136.03和202.37 Mg·hm-2; 土壤层作为其生态系统主要碳库, 贡献率达88.2%-99.7%。该研究对系统理解山区经济林生态系统的养分变化及其碳汇功能提供了重要的参考依据。

Abstract:

Aims Ecological stoichiometry has been recognized as a useful indicator of nutrient status and process regulation in ecosystems. Quantifying the effects of stand age on stoichiometric characteristics of carbon (C), nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and ecosystem C storage allocation patterns is critical for understanding the mechanisms of biogeochemical cycles and ecological functions in plantation ecosystems.
Methods This study compared the ecological stoichiometry and the C storage partitioning patterns among different stand ages in walnut (Juglans regia) plantations on the eastern of Taihang Mountains, North China. Plant and soil samples from four stand ages (4, 8, 12, and 16 a) were collected and analyzed.
Important findings 1) Mean C contents in organs (root, stem, branch, and leaf) were 437.17, 449.87, 448.16, and 441.39 g·kg-1, respectively, showing no significant increasing trend with stand ages. N and P contents of different organs were 4.15-26.68 g·kg-1 and 0.59-1.95 g·kg-1, respectively, decreasing significantly with stand ages. C:N and C:P ratios increased significantly, while N:P remained stable. 2) Under anthropogenic management, soil C, N, and P contents exhibited an initial decline followed by an increase with stand ages, with significant variations among age classes. Trends in C:N, C:P and N:P ratios aligned with nutrient content changes. 3) Correlation analysis showed that soil C content was significantly positively correlated with soil N content. Leaf C content showed a negatively correlation with leaf N content, while leaf N content demonstrated a significantly positive correlation with leaf P content. Soil P content was significantly positively correlated to leaf N, branch P, stem P and N content. 4) Total ecosystem C storages for 4, 8, 12, and 16 a plantations were 167.59, 123.69, 136.03, and 202.37 Mg·hm-2, respectively. The soil layer constituted the primary C pool, contributing 88.2%-99.7% of total ecosystem C storage. This study provides a scientific basis for systematically understanding nutrient cycling mechanisms and C sequestration functions in mountain economic plantation ecosystems.
