Carbon Dioxide Emission from Soils of the Ecotone Zone in the North of Western Siberia
EURASIAN SOIL SCIENCE(2023)
摘要
The study area in the north of Western Siberia is located in the southern tundra–taiga ecotone near the southern boundary of discontinuous permafrost zone. Three contrasting ecosystems—pine forests with Albic Podzols; palsa with Histic Oxyaquic Turbic Cryosols, and bogs with Fibric Histosols—predominate in this area. The objectives of the study included evaluation of the CO 2 emission from soils in the growing seasons of 2019–2022 and analysis of the factors controlling spatial and interannual variability of the emission. The study included analysis of the soil respiration (static closed chamber method) data and soil hydrothermal parameters in August for four years. In the absence of definite trends in climatic parameters over the past 10 years, a gradual increase in the soil temperature in all ecosystems and an increase in the depth of summer thawing in palsa were observed. These changes were not accompanied by significant changes in the CO 2 emission. Its averaged values varied from 485 to 540 mg CO 2 /(m 2 h) in forest ecosystems and from 150 to 255 mg CO 2 /(m 2 h) in the palsa–bog complex with high coefficients of spatial variability. High CO 2 emission in forest ecosystems is determined by a favorable hydrothermal regime, high root biomass, and good water-physical properties. Part of the CO 2 produced by palsa soils is transported with suprapermafrost water flows toward the adjacent bog and is released from the surface of bog soils. Soil temperature interrelated with seasonal thawing depth proved to be a significant predictor of the spatial variability of CO 2 emission from the soils of the palsa–bog complex.
