摘要

北部泥炭地在中高纬度地区是重要的碳储量,但在高纬度地区变得越来越不连续,与温度和降水对植物生长的限制有关。在过去四十年中,北极的年平均气温平均上升了~3°C。气温升高和生长季节延长可能会推动整个北纬地区植物生产力的提高,但目前尚不清楚气候变暖是否导致了北极泥炭地的横向扩展。利用长时间序列的Landsat卫星数据,结合实地调查收集的信息,我们发现北极泥炭地在过去40年里可能经历了横向扩张。在欧洲和加拿大北极地区16个现存泥炭地边缘的21个样带上(包括62°N至79°N的北极高低位置),与1985-1995年相比,我们研究的泥炭地边缘的三分之二以上在过去的15至20年中显示出统计上显著的夏季峰值绿化(作为标准化植被指数)。在大多数研究地点,夏季峰值湿度(作为标准化的差异湿度指数)水平保持稳定或增加。北极泥炭地的横向扩张表明,它们是一个越来越重要的天然碳汇,至少在短期内是这样。

Satellite data indicates recent Arctic peatland expansion with warming.

Northern peatlands are an important carbon store in mid to high latitudes, but become increasingly discontinuous in the higher latitudes, associated with temperature and precipitation limits on plant growth. During the last four decades, mean annual temperatures in the Arctic have increased on average by ~3 °C. Warmer temperatures and longer growing seasons likely drive increases in plant productivity throughout northern latitudes, but it is not clear whether warming has resulted in lateral spread of Arctic peatlands. Using long time-series Landsat satellite data, coupled with information gathered from fieldwork in situ, we show that Arctic peatlands have likely undergone lateral expansion over the last 40 years. On 21 transects from the edges of 16 extant peatlands in the European and Canadian Arctic (both high and low Arctic locations from 62 to 79°N), over two thirds of the peatland edges we studied showed statistically significant peak-summer greening (as Normalised Difference Vegetation Index) in the last 15 to 20 years, compared to the period 1985-1995. Peak summer moisture (as normalised Difference Moisture Index) levels remained stable or increased at most study sites. The lateral expansion of Arctic peatlands suggests they are an increasingly important natural carbon sink, at least in the near term.
