摘要

水分渗透在水文过程中发挥着重要作用,尤其是在降水有限的旱地。生物簇在旱地无处不在,在大多数情况下对土壤水分渗透有重要影响,而放牧可能会通过扰动生物簇来影响水分渗透。为此,通过围栏放牧试验,测量了非放牧区(NG)和五种放牧强度的坡地草地(G1,2.2 山羊-hm-2;G2,3.0 山羊-hm-2;G3,4.2 山羊-hm-2;G4,6.7 山羊-hm-2;G5,16.7 山羊-hm-2)放牧对地表植被特征、土壤物理属性和水分渗透率的影响。结果表明,放牧后地表植被特征和土壤物理特性发生了显著变化,尤其是放牧强度为 G5 时。放牧降低了植被覆盖率和生物簇厚度,而增加了生物簇覆盖率、裸土覆盖率、表面粗糙度和生物簇分裂指数(SPLIT),且其影响与放牧强度有关。因此,G1-G2放牧后水分入渗率增加了24%-47%,与未放牧地区相比,G1的稳定入渗率和平均入渗率分别增加了约56%和33%。放牧强度低于 G3 时,入渗率急剧下降,放牧强度超过 G3 时,入渗率保持稳定。轻度放牧一年后土壤入渗率提高的原因是土壤表面特征和生物簇特征发生了变化。其中,扰动、生物簇厚度、土壤表面粗糙度共同解释了初始入渗率的增加,0-5 厘米土壤容重、生物簇覆盖率及其厚度共同影响了入渗率的稳定。这一联系表明,在生物簇广泛分布的坡地草地上放牧,可能会用于干旱地区生态系统的土壤水分管理。

Light grazing promotes soil water infiltration of the rehabilitated grassland in the hilly region of the Loess Plateau

Water infiltration plays an important role in water hydrological processes, especially in precipitation-limited drylands. Biocrusts are ubiquitous in drylands which had significant influence on soil water infiltration in most cases, while grazing may affect water infiltration by the disturbance of biocrusts. Toward this end, the effects of grazing on surface land cover characteristics, soil physical attributes, and water infiltration rates were measured at non-grazed area (NG) and five intensities grazing slope grasslands (G1, 2.2 goat·hm−2; G2, 3.0 goat·hm−2; G3, 4.2 goat·hm−2; G4, 6.7 goat·hm−2; G5, 16.7 goat·hm−2) by conducting a fenced grazing experiment. Results showed that surface cover characteristics and soil physical properties changed significantly after grazing, especially at the G5 grazing intensity. Grazing decreased the vegetation coverage and biocrust thickness, while it increased biocrust coverage, bare soil coverage, surface roughness, and splitting index (SPLIT) of biocrust, and the influence was related to grazing intensities. Consequently, there was an increase in the water infiltration rate of 24%–47% after G1-G2 grazing, and the stable infiltration rate and average infiltration rate increased about 56% and 33% at G1, respectively when compared with non-grazed area. The infiltration rate decreased sharply when the grazing intensity was below G3, and infiltration rates remained stable when the grazing intensity was over G3. Improvement of soil infiltration under light grazing after one year was due to the changes of soil surface characteristics and biocrusts characteristics. Among them, disturbance, biocrusts thickness, soil surface roughness together explained the increase of initial infiltration rate, and 0–5 cm soil bulk density, biocrust coverage and its thickness together affected the stable infiltration rate. This link points to the possible use of grazing on the slope grassland with widespread biocrusts and their potential use for the management of soil water in drylands ecosystems.

期刊介绍: Ecological engineering has been defined as the design of ecosystems for the mutual benefit of humans and nature. The journal is meant for ecologists who, because of their research interests or occupation, are involved in designing, monitoring, or restoring ecosystems, and can serve as a bridge between ecologists and engineers. Specific topics covered in the journal include: habitat reconstruction; ecotechnology; synthetic ecology; bioengineering; restoration ecology; ecology conservation; ecosystem rehabilitation; stream and river restoration; reclamation ecology; non-renewable resource conservation. Descriptions of specific applications of ecological engineering are acceptable only when situated within context of adding novelty to current research and emphasizing ecosystem restoration. We do not accept purely descriptive reports on ecosystem structures (such as vegetation surveys), purely physical assessment of materials that can be used for ecological restoration, small-model studies carried out in the laboratory or greenhouse with artificial (waste)water or crop studies, or case studies on conventional wastewater treatment and eutrophication that do not offer an ecosystem restoration approach within the paper.
