摘要

高山生态系统是全球碳循环的重要组成部分,不仅因为它们储存了大量的有机碳,而且由于它们对气候变化的高度敏感性,这已经引起了相当大的科学兴趣。然而,在气候持续变暖的背景下,高寒土壤有机碳(SOC)的动态及其机制尚未量化,从而给碳-气候反馈的预测带来了不确定性。为了阐明高寒生态系统土壤碳动态的响应机制,本文以中亚干旱区具有代表性的高寒系统天山为研究对象,采用野外调查与文献资料相结合的方法。结果表明:不同植被类型土壤有机碳含量呈现明显的海拔依赖性,气候变暖总体上促进了高寒土壤有机碳的固存。线性混合效应分析表明,土壤有机碳的固存可能通过两个关键机制增强:(1)增温促进了植物源微生物转化碳的积累;(2)气候变暖通过土壤风化过程促进碳稳定。这些发现促进了我们对气候变化下海拔有机碳动态机制的认识,并提供了定量证据,证明高山生态系统是持久的碳汇,具有重要的全球气候调节潜力。

Warming promotes soil carbon sequestration in the Tianshan Mountains
Alpine ecosystems are critical components of the global carbon cycle, not only because they store substantial organic carbon, but also due to their high sensitivity to climate change, which has garnered considerable scientific interest. However, under ongoing climate warming, the dynamics and underlying mechanisms of alpine soil organic carbon (SOC) are not yet quantified, thereby introducing uncertainties in predictions of carbon–climate feedbacks. To elucidate the response mechanisms of soil carbon dynamics in alpine ecosystems, this study focuses on the Tianshan Mountains—a representative alpine system in the arid region of Central Asia—through an integrated approach combining field surveys and published data. The results showed that SOC content exhibited a clear altitude-dependent pattern across different vegetation types, and that climate warming generally promoted SOC sequestration in alpine soils. Linear mixed-effects analysis indicated that SOC sequestration may be enhanced via two key mechanisms: (1) warming promotes the accumulation of plant-derived microbial-transformed carbon; and (2) warming promotes carbon stabilization through soil weathering processes. These findings advance our mechanistic understanding of altitudinal SOC dynamics under climate change and provide quantitative evidence that alpine ecosystems act as persistent carbon sinks, which has significant potential for global climate regulation.

期刊介绍: The objective of the journal Global and Planetary Change is to provide a multi-disciplinary overview of the processes taking place in the Earth System and involved in planetary change over time. The journal focuses on records of the past and current state of the earth system, and future scenarios , and their link to global environmental change. Regional or process-oriented studies are welcome if they discuss global implications. Topics include, but are not limited to, changes in the dynamics and composition of the atmosphere, oceans and cryosphere, as well as climate change, sea level variation, observations/modelling of Earth processes from deep to (near-)surface and their coupling, global ecology, biogeography and the resilience/thresholds in ecosystems. Key criteria for the consideration of manuscripts are (a) the relevance for the global scientific community and/or (b) the wider implications for global scale problems, preferably combined with (c) having a significance beyond a single discipline. A clear focus on key processes associated with planetary scale change is strongly encouraged. Manuscripts can be submitted as either research contributions or as a review article. Every effort should be made towards the presentation of research outcomes in an understandable way for a broad readership.
