摘要

陆生植物通过改变水、能量和生物地球化学循环,改变了地球表面的环境。研究深时间的植被-气候相互作用必须依赖于现代植物的类似物来代表古生态系统,因为重建古,特别是灭绝植物功能的方法是缺乏的。考虑到植物生理学是随着时间的推移而进化的,而且一些古植物没有明确的现代类似物,这种方法可能会受到损害。全植物功能定量重建的进展为取代现代植物类似物和捕获年龄特异性植被-气候相互作用提供了新的机会。在此,我们回顾了近年来对古植物表现的研究,通过将化石和地质数据与基于过程的生态系统到地球系统尺度模型相结合,探索早期维管植物如何响应和影响气候。首先,我们提出了从生态学和进化理论的角度来描述灭绝植物的观点,为推进深时间重建植被-气候相互作用提供了一个框架。我们讨论了将这些方法应用于晚古生代常湿热带和高纬度地区的植物所提供的新的机制理解。最后,我们讨论了在最先进的地球系统模型中对古植物的初步应用,以强调不同植物功能策略对我们理解深时间植被-气候相互作用的潜在影响。■几亿年来,植物一直是维持地球大气、海洋和气候状况的基石。▪灭绝的植物在不同时期的功能不同,限制了我们对地球上的过程如何相互作用产生气候的理解。▪本文综述的新方法可以根据化石记录定量重建灭绝植物的功能。▪将灭绝的植物纳入生态系统和气候模型将扩大我们对植被在过去环境变化中的作用的理解。

A Systems Approach to Understanding How Plants Transformed Earth's Environment in Deep Time
Terrestrial plants have transformed Earth's surface environments by altering water, energy, and biogeochemical cycles. Studying vegetation-climate interaction in deep time has necessarily relied on modern-plant analogs to represent paleo-ecosystems—as methods for reconstructing paleo- and, in particular, extinct-plant function were lacking. This approach is potentially compromised given that plant physiology has evolved through time, and some paleo-plants have no clear modern analog. Advancements in the quantitative reconstruction of whole-plant function provide new opportunities to replace modern-plant analogs and capture age-specific vegetation-climate interactions. Here, we review recent investigations of paleo-plant performance through the integration of fossil and geologic data with process-based ecosystem- to Earth system–scale models to explore how early vascular plants responded to and influenced climate. First, we present an argument for characterizing extinct plants in terms of ecological and evolutionary theory to provide a framework for advancing reconstructed vegetation-climate interactions in deep time. We discuss the novel mechanistic understanding provided by applying these approaches to plants of the late Paleozoic ever-wet tropics and at higher latitudes. Finally, we discuss preliminary applications to paleo-plants in a state-of-the-art Earth system model to highlight the potential implications of different plant functional strategies on our understanding of vegetation-climate interactions in deep time. ▪ For hundreds of millions of years, plants have been a keystone in maintaining the status of Earth's atmosphere, oceans, and climate. ▪ Extinct plants have functioned differently across time, limiting our understanding of how processes on Earth interact to produce climate. ▪ New methods, reviewed here, allow quantitative reconstruction of extinct-plant function based on the fossil record. ▪ Integrating extinct plants into ecosystem and climate models will expand our understanding of vegetation's role in past environmental change.
