英文摘要 | Soil water content (SWC) regulation on the responses of soil respiration (R-s), autotrophic respiration (R-a), and heterotrophic respiration (R-h) to warming are rarely investigated in alpine meadow ecosystem in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP). We conducted a warming experiment to investigate how SWC regulates the responses of R-s and its components (R-a and R-h) to warming. Infrared heaters were used to simulate climatic warming. Soil respiration was measured inside surface collars (2-3 cm deep) and R-h was measured inside deep collars (50 cm deep), which excludes root respiration. Autotrophic respiration was calculated by subtracting R-h from R-s. Warming increased the average R-s and R-h by 9.9% and 12.7% but had no significant effect on R-a. Interaction between warming and SWC had significant effect on R-s and its components. Soil respiration and R-a decreased by 5.8% and 36.3% in dry conditions, but they increased by 23.5% and 47.7% in wet conditions. Growing season above-ground biomass was enhanced by 0.1 kg m(-2) in wet conditions but reduced by 0.10 kg m(-2) in dry conditions under warming manipulation. The estimated net ecosystem carbon (C) balance was 0.65 and -0.16 kg m(-2) in wet and dry conditions, respectively, which indicates a net C emission of alpine meadow in wet but a net C sequestration in dry conditions. Our results emphasize the importance of incorporating SWC in simulation of ecosystem carbon balance under a warming climate. |
