保护性耕作对土壤有机碳组分的影响

为了探讨土壤有机碳及活性有机碳组分对不同耕作措施的响应,在黄土高原半干旱区的定西市李家堡镇进行了长期田间定位试验,采用免耕、秸秆覆盖及小麦和豌豆轮作等保护性耕作措施,对0-5 cm,5-10 cm,10-30cm 3层土壤的有机碳(SOC)、易氧化有机碳(ROC)、微生物生物量碳(MBC)的动态进行了系统的研究,结果表明,与传统耕作相比,保护性耕作的3个处理均能不同程度地提高两种轮作次序下SOC,ROC,MBC的含量,这说明保护性耕作有利于碳的固定和生态农业的健康发展,其中免耕和秸秆覆盖两部分结合效果最佳.同时,各处理土层的含碳量均随土壤深度的增加而降低.相关分析表明,ROC,MBC,ROC/SOC,MBC/SOC对不同耕作措施产生的响应与SOC基本一致,它们可以作为对土壤SOC影响的评价指标,与SOC的相关系数大小排序依次为MBCROCMBC/SOCROC/SOC,在表征土壤有机碳变化上它们比SOC更敏感,其灵敏度排序为MBCROC/SOCMBC/SOCROC,因此,在ROC,MBC,ROC/SOC,MBC/SOC等指标中,MBC更要值得重视和采用.     

不同保护性耕作措施对麦-豆轮作土壤有机碳库的影响

通过设置在甘肃省定西市李家堡镇的不同保护性耕作试验,对春小麦、豌豆两种轮作次序下的土壤总有机碳、活性有机碳、微生物量碳含量进行了测定,并计算了各处理土壤碳库管理指数.结果表明:经过5年的轮作后,与传统耕作相比,两种轮作次序下免耕秸秆覆盖和传统耕作结合秸秆还田处理均能不同程度地提高土壤总有机碳、活性有机碳、微生物量碳含量及土壤碳库管理指数,而免耕不覆盖处理除在0～5 cm提高了土壤有机碳库管理指数外,其他各层次均降低了土壤有机碳库管理指数,说明仅依靠免耕而不结合秸秆覆盖或还田对于土壤有机碳库的管理来讲是不可持续的.     

保护性耕作对潮土不同组分有机碳、氮的影响

为深入了解保护性耕作对土壤不同组分有机碳、氮的影响,本试验以北方潮土为研究对象,研究不同耕作方式下土壤轻组组分(LF)、重组组分(HF)以及各组分有机碳、氮(LFC、LFN、HFC、HFN)的变化。采用密度为1.7 g cm-3的碘化钾重液将土壤分离为轻组和重组。结果表明,0~20 cm土层,不同耕作方式下,土壤轻组有机碳(LFC)含量介于38.91~94.89 g kg-1之间,为土壤总有机碳(TOC)的6.89%~33.17%;轻组氮(LFN)含量介于1.03~3.47 g kg-1之间。耕作扰动导致土壤轻组有机碳、氮的损失,随着翻耕频率的增加,LF、LFC、LFN的含量显著降低;秸秆还田为土壤提供外源有机物,显著提高了土壤LFC和LFN的含量。轻组主要集中在土壤表层,随着土层深度的增加,LF、LFC、LFN的含量呈递减的趋势。由于轻组的C/N比值显著高于重组和原土,因此轻组对耕作制度和土层深度的变化更敏感。不同耕作制度下HF、HFC、HFN的含量变化不明显。少免耕能减少土壤有机碳、氮的损失,秸秆能补充土壤碳库,提高土壤氮含量,因此保护性耕作对提高土壤有机碳库,尤其对土壤轻组有机碳、氮的累积具有积极的作用。     

不同气候和施肥条件下保护性耕作对农田土壤碳氮储量的影响

【目的】 土壤有机碳氮是影响土壤肥力与作物产量的重要物质,而耕作是影响土壤碳氮储量的重要因素。通过分析不同耕作措施对我国东北、华北地区农田土壤碳氮储量的影响,为优化农田耕作管理、实现固碳减排、保护土壤提供科学依据。 【方法】 基于山西寿阳 (SSY)、山西临汾 (SLF)、河北廊坊 (HLF) 和吉林公主岭 (GZL) 四个长期定位试验,选择传统耕作 (CT)、免耕 (NTN) 和浅旋耕 (NTD) 三个耕作处理,分析了0—80 cm土壤剖面有机碳、氮的储量分布。 【结果】 1) 与传统耕作相比,浅旋耕显著降低褐土 (寿阳) 容重,免耕增加黑土 (公主岭) 容重,保护性耕作对沙性土 (临汾) 和潮土 (廊坊) 的影响很小。2) 耕作影响0—60 cm土壤有机碳储量。与传统耕作处理相比,黑土 (公主岭) 采用免耕和浅旋耕可显著提高0—60 cm土壤中的有机碳含量;免耕可提高褐土 (寿阳)0—50 cm的有机碳含量;沙性土 (临汾)、潮土 (廊坊) 免耕由于表层秸秆覆盖可提高0—15 cm土壤有机碳含量,但降低15—50 cm层土壤碳储量;潮土 (廊坊)15—60 cm土层,浅旋耕可增加土壤有机碳储量,而免耕则相反。3) 免耕处理的潮土 (廊坊) 土壤氮储量比传统耕作高出260 kg/hm2,差异不显著;黑土 (公主岭) 免耕和浅旋耕土壤氮储量则分别高出112 kg/hm2和207 kg/hm2,差异显著,保护性耕作降低临汾和寿阳1 m深土壤的氮储量。4) 保护性耕作加剧了0—20 cm沙性土和潮土壤氮储量的分层,对黑土 (公主岭) 和褐土 (寿阳) 土壤碳储量的层间分布影响很小。 【结论】 耕作影响0—60 cm土壤有机碳储量,免耕可以增加褐土的碳储量和潮土的氮储量,免耕和浅旋耕配合秸秆覆盖可显著增加黑土的碳、氮储量。因此,免耕适用于褐土和潮土,免耕和浅旋耕适用于黑土,沙性土采用保护性耕作的效果不显著。      

长期保护性耕作对土壤有机碳和玉米产量及水分利用的影响

【目的】通过研究保护性耕作对旱地春玉米土壤有机碳(SOC)、产量及水分利用的影响,分析保护性耕作的增产机制,为旱作农田耕作技术应用提供理论和技术支持。【方法】采用2003~2013年连续11年的田间定位试验,设传统耕作(CT)、少耕(RT)和免耕(NT)3种耕作措施,分析土壤0-20 cm和20-40 cm土层有机碳含量、土壤0-20 cm含水量、作物耗水量、玉米产量和水分利用效率的年际变化和耕作处理间的差异,并对玉米产量与影响因素的相关性进行分析。【结果】1)保护性耕作能有效提高土壤有机碳含量,少耕、免耕处理0-20 cm土层有机碳含量11年平均值较传统耕作分别提高了11.2%和3.4%;至2013年少耕、免耕20-40 cm土层有机碳含量分别较传统耕作增加了5.53和3.29 g/kg;土壤0-20 cm有机碳储量净增加速率分别为C 0.365和0.754t/(hm2·a)。2)保护性耕作具有明显的增产效果,少耕产量最高,增产效果最好2003~2013年均产量为5.83t/hm~2,较传统耕作提高了14.7%;免耕次之,年均产量为5.39 t/hm~2,较传统耕作增产6.1%。3)各耕作处理玉米产量与土壤0-20 cm土层含水量之间存在显著的二次方程关系,与作物耗水量之间具有显著的乘幂方程关系。4)保护性耕作可以增加土壤水分减少玉米生育期内的耗水量,提高水分利用效率,其中免耕土壤0-20 cm土层水分含量最高2003-2013年平均含水量为15.2%,较传统耕作和少耕提高了1.90和1.66个百分点,且生育期耗水量最少2003~2013年均耗水量为403.5 mm,较传统耕作和少耕减少了16.1 mm和7.6 mm;少耕、免耕的水分利用效率较传统耕作分别提高了16.1%和10.2%,降水利用效率较传统耕作提高13.9%和5.8%。【结论】长期保护性耕作可以有效地提高土壤有机碳含量、增加土壤水分、减少作物耗水量,从而显著提高了玉米产量和水分利用效率,3种耕作措施中以少耕效果最好,免耕次之在旱作农田推广少、免耕保护性耕作措施是一种增产、节水的有效途径。     

保护性耕作模式对黑土有机碳含量和密度的影响

以公主岭市长期（10 a）保护性耕作定位试验为研究对象,分析与传统耕作模式相比的几种保护性耕作模式对黑土固碳效应的影响。共设4种耕作模式,即秋翻秋耙匀垄、秋灭茬匀垄、全面旋耕深松和宽窄行交替休闲（又叫松带、苗带交替休闲）（后3种视为保护性耕作）。结果表明,经过10 a的耕作试验,不同的耕作模式对土壤有机碳有显著的影响。表层0～20 cm秋翻秋耙匀垄和秋灭茬匀垄模式的土壤有机碳含量最低,深层30～50 cm全面旋耕深松模式的土壤有机碳质量分数显著低于其他耕作模式13.49%～25.14%;0～50 cm耕层中宽窄行交替休闲的土壤有机碳质量分数高于其他耕作处理0～33.58%。宽窄行交替休闲模式下的宽窄行松带活性有机碳质量分数及缓性有机碳质量分数分别高于其他模式8.06%～48.87%和0～33.83%。全面旋耕深松模式与宽窄行交替休闲模式下的宽窄行苗带土壤有机碳密度分别低于和高于秋翻秋耙10.95%、17.13%;＞20～50 cm宽窄行苗带的活性有机碳密度及缓性有机碳密度分别高于其他耕作模式2.20%～18.85%和17.00%～29.19%,不同耕作模式的土壤惰性有机碳密度没有显著性差异。相对秋翻秋耙的传统模式,不同的保护性耕作模式能够增加土壤有机碳密度也能够降低土壤有机碳密度,宽窄行交替休闲主要通过增加土壤活性有机碳及缓性有机碳密度来增加其土壤有机碳密度,是东北地区固定土壤有机碳、提高土壤有机碳质量的有效耕作方式。     

保护性耕作对潮土团聚体组成及其有机碳含量的影响

利用保护性耕作长期定位试验平台,研究了小麦-玉米轮作条件下连续5年实施免耕与秸秆还田对农田潮土团聚体组成、团聚体中有机碳含量的影响。结果表明:相比于常规翻耕,常规翻耕+秸秆还田、免耕、免耕+秸秆还田处理下5 mm粒级机械稳定性团聚体含量显著提升,增加比例分别为16.62%、16.05%、44.23%;而免耕、免耕+秸秆还田能显著提升5~2 mm粒级水稳性团聚体含量,提升比例分别为29.81%和64.28%,同时团聚体稳定率也有一定的提高;实施免耕能显著提高5~2、2~1 mm粒级水稳性团聚体中有机碳含量;除常规翻耕+秸秆还田处理下2~1 mm粒级外,秸秆还田对各粒级团聚体中有机碳含量均有不同程度的提升作用。     

保护性耕作对麦-豆轮作土壤有机碳全氮及微生物量碳氮的影响

通过设置在甘肃省定西市李家堡镇的保护性耕作措施长期定位试验,共设4个处理（T：传统耕作;NT：免耕无覆盖;TS：传统耕作＋秸秆还田;NTS：免耕＋秸秆覆盖）,采用春小麦豌豆双序列轮作（即小麦→豌豆→小麦和豌豆→小麦→豌豆,本文中所指春小麦地、豌豆地分别指2008年种植春小麦、豌豆的轮作次序）,于2008年3月中旬对春小麦、豌豆双序列轮作下的土壤有机碳、全氮、土壤微生物量碳及土壤微生物量氮含量进行了采样测定。结果表明,经过7a的轮作后,两种轮作次序下,0-30cm土层中土壤有机碳、全氮、土壤微生物量碳、土壤微生物量氮含量均有在免耕＋秸秆覆盖、传统耕作＋秸秆还田处理较免耕不覆盖、传统耕作处理高的趋势,且其含量均随着土壤深度的增加而降低。其中,土壤微生物量碳含量在两种轮作次序下的排序均为：免耕＋秸秆覆盖（NTS）〉传统耕作＋秸秆还田（TS）〉免耕不覆盖（NT）〉传统耕作（T）;而土壤微生物量氮含量在春小麦地和豌豆地的排序则分别表现为：免耕＋秸秆覆盖（NTS）〉传统耕作＋秸秆还田（TS）〉传统耕作（T）〉免耕不覆盖（NT）和免耕＋秸秆覆盖（NTS）〉传统耕作＋秸秆还田（TS）〉免耕不覆盖（NT）〉传统耕作（T）。同时,微生物量碳、微生物量氮与有机碳和全氮均呈显著正相关,说明提高土壤有机质、全氮含量的保护性耕作模式有利于土壤微生物量碳与氮的积累。     

保护性耕作对玉米产量及土壤碳氮的影响

尽管保护性耕作从农业管理角度看被广泛认为是有效增加土壤碳和提高土壤质量的一种方式,但是,在土壤垂直分布中改变碳存储量的研究却很少。以美国莱特柏果思县为研究对象,在传统的犁地和耙地的耕作方式下,通过实施保护性耕作方法来测定其对土壤碳的影响(冬季覆盖加带状种植)。在实施保护性耕作5 a前后测定土壤总碳和总氮的含量,从0~65 cm深的土层取样,分别在57个采样点进行收集。每年测量作物产量、冬季和夏季作物的地上生物量、生物质碳、氮含量。结果表明,土壤碳平均增加20 t/hm2且与氮增加2 t/hm2相关。72%~80%的碳的增加是在35 cm土层深以上,35~65 cm土层碳含量增加3~6 t/hm2,净生物质碳增加36%,玉米产量增加了2 200 kg/hm2。分析表明,15~35 cm的土壤碳的含量,是与玉米产量相关的主要土壤参数。在过去45 a中,对年降雨量最低的时期的研究表明,土壤碳介质的增长可增加植物可利用的土壤水,进而提高玉米产量。通过计算测定土壤持水能力表明,土壤中35 cm以上土层碳的增加可能增加土壤蓄水能力且足以满足长达4 d以上的作物用水需求。这些结果表明,在潮湿的美国东南部沿海平原退化的沙质土壤,通过保护性耕作方法可以增加土壤碳和氮累积,增加的土壤碳可能会潜在地减轻短期降雨亏缺对旱地生产系统的不利影响。     

保护性耕作对土壤团聚体及其有机碳含量的影响

为了探讨保护性耕作对旱作农田套作模式土壤团聚体的影响,在重庆北碚西南大学试验农场对传统耕作(T)、垄作(R)、传统耕作+覆盖(TS)和垄作+覆盖(RS)4种处理下的西南紫色土丘陵区小麦—玉米—大豆套作体系玉米大豆共生时期土壤团聚体进行筛分和测定分析.结果表明:在玉米条带,随着团聚体粒级的减小各处理间水稳性团聚体质量分数差异降低,且差异主要出现在＞0.25 mm粒级的大团聚体中.但是在小麦—大豆条带,不同处理的水稳性团聚体含量没有明显差异.不同土层的土壤水稳性团聚体含量趋势一致,大小排序为A1(＞2 mm粒级的团聚体)＞A2(2～0.25 mm粒级的团聚体)＞M2(＜0.053mm粒级的团聚体)＞M1(0.25～0.053 mm粒级的团聚体).0-5 cm土层＞2 mm粒级的团聚体含量在36.31％～54.84％之间,低于5-10 cm土层的含量(55.22％～70.73％),耕作处理对土壤水稳性团聚体的影响主要表现在0-5 cm土层中,5-10 cm土层各处理间没有差异.不同粒级团聚体内有机碳含量大小排序为A2＞A1＞M1＞M2,有机碳主要富集在2～0.25 mm粒级的团聚体内,其中的水稳性团聚体有机碳含量变化尤其敏感.保护性耕作措施能显著提高土壤有机碳含量,虽然2～0.25 mm粒级中的有机碳含量最高,但是它的质量分数较低,土壤总有机碳增加主要是由于＞2 mm粒级的土壤水稳性团聚体有机碳含量提高.在西南紫色土丘陵区小麦—玉米—大豆套作模式下,保护性耕作有利于改善土壤团聚体结构,增加大团聚体含量,促进土壤有机碳的固定.     

Conservation tillage and depth stratification of porosity and soil organic matter

Pores and organic matter take a multitude of forms in soil and their characteristics change in space and time following a change in tillage practices as a new “steady state” is approached. Information on the variation with depth (stratification) in the characteristics of pores and organic matter and the rates of change in these characteristics is vital to interpreting the short- and long-term impacts of a reduction of tillage on the productivity and hydrology of agricultural soils. This information is also of value in estimating the effect of a reduction in tillage on the sequestration of carbon in agricultural soils. Recent literature comparing conventional tillage (CT) with no-till (NT) in temperate agroecosystems with varying soil textures and climates was reviewed for the purpose of assessing rates of change in the magnitude and stratigraphy of bulk density, porosity, pore size classes, organic matter content and organic matter fractions. The influence of tillage on bulk density, macroporosity and organic matter content was found to be documented more extensively than the effects on pore size distribution, soil organic matter fractions and their interactions at different soil depths. Many of the reports documenting tillage-induced changes in soil porosity and organic matter were based on measurements at a specific time after initiating the tillage trial. Results obtained by different investigators were found to be most consistent when measurements were made ≥15 years after initiating the tillage trial. Data from different studies were used to generalize trends in pore and organic matter characteristics with depth and time. However, few studies provided measurements that permitted accurate prediction of either the rates of change or the maximum change that will occur following a change from CT to NT. Future research must enhance our ability to make these predictions if we wish to garner a better understanding of the effects of NT on the quality and productivity of agricultural soils and their ability to sequester carbon.     

耕作措施对土壤有机碳和活性有机碳的影响

以5年的不同耕作措施处理的长期试验为基础,研究了不同耕作措施对土壤总有机碳、微生物量碳、颗粒有机碳和可溶性有机碳的影响.试验结果显示,秸秆还田、免耕覆盖、浅旋耕和常规耕作等不同耕作措施对0～40 cm土壤有机碳有显著影响,而对40 cm以下土层土壤有机碳的影响较小.免耕覆盖处理可以提高0～10 cm土层有机碳含量,但10～40 cm土层有机碳含量低于秸秆还田和常规耕作处理.与浅旋耕和常规耕作相比,连续5年秸秆还田和免耕覆盖可显著提高0～100 cm土壤有机碳储量.同时,不同耕作措施也影响活性有机碳含量,在0～5 cm土层中,免耕覆盖处理的颗粒有机碳、可溶性有机碳和微生物碳含量最高,其次为秸秆还田、浅旋耕和常规耕作处理.与常规耕作处理相比,秸秆还田处理 20～40 cm土层的颗粒有机碳、可溶性有机碳和微生物碳含量分别提高了7.3%～121.8%、31.8%～49.3%和44.2%～84.6%.     

转变耕作方式对长期旋免耕农田土壤有机碳库的影响

土壤深松是解决长期旋免耕农田耕层浅薄化、亚表层（>15～30 cm）容重增加等问题的有效方法之一,而将长期旋免耕农田进行深松必然导致农业生态系统中土壤有机碳（soil organic carbon,SOC）及碳固定速率的变化。因此,为对比将长期旋免耕转变为深松前后农田土壤有机碳库变化,该研究利用连续12a 的旋耕和免耕长期定位试验以及在此基础上连续6 a旋耕-深松和免耕-深松定位试验,对比了转变耕作方式对农田土壤0～30 cm有机碳含量、周年累积速率及其固碳量的影响。研究结果表明,经过连续12 a的旋耕和免耕处理（2002－2014）,2014年免耕处理土壤0～30 cm有机碳储量比试验初期（2002年）提高38%,旋耕处理降低了30%,而对照常规处理无显著差异。免耕处理土壤0～30 cm有机碳储量比旋耕处理高约2.6倍（2014年）。长期免耕显著提高了土壤0～30 cm的有机碳含量,2002~2014年其土壤0～30 cm固碳量为16.69 t/hm2,但长期旋耕导致土壤0～30 cm SOC含量显著降低,表现为土壤有机碳的净损耗,年损耗速率为?0.75 t/hm2。而长期旋耕后进行深松（旋耕-深松处理）6年其土壤0～30 cm的有机碳含量较原旋耕处理提高32%～67%,且显著提高了土壤固碳量及周年累积速率;免耕-深松土壤0～30 cm的有机碳周年累积速率较免耕处理下降了42%。长期旋耕造成有机碳水平下降的条件下,将旋耕处理转变为深松处理在短期内更有利于促进土壤有机碳的积累,而将长期免耕处理转变为深松措施,降低了土壤有机碳的累积速率和固碳量。     

Conservation tillage induced changes in organic carbon, total nitrogen and available phosphorus in a semi-arid alkaline subtropical soil

A multi-year experiment was conducted to compare the effects of conservation tillage (no-till and ridge-till) with conventional plow tillage on organic C, N, and resin-extractable P in an alkaline semi-arid subtropical soil (Hidalgo sandy clay loam, a fine-loamy, mixed, hyperthermic Typic Calciustoll) at Weslaco, TX (26°9′N 97°57′W). Tillage comparisons were established on irrigated plots in 1992 as a randomized block design with four replications. Soil samples were collected for analyses 1 month before cotton planting of the eighth year of annual cotton (planted in March) followed by corn (planted in August).

No-till resulted in significantly (p<0.01) greater soil organic C in the top 4 cm of soil, where the organic C concentration was 58% greater than in the top 4 cm of the plow-till treatment. In the 4–8 cm depth, organic C was 15% greater than the plow-till control. The differences were relatively modest, but consistent with organic C gains observed in hot climates where conservation tillage has been adopted. Higher concentrations of total soil N occurred in the same treatments, however a significant (p<0.01) reduction in N was detected below 12 cm in the ridge-till treatment. The relatively low amount of readily oxidizable C (ROC) in all tillage treatments suggests that much of the soil organic C gained is humic in nature which would be expected to improve C sequestration in this soil.

Against the background of improved soil organic C and N, bicarbonate extractable P was greater in the top 8 cm of soil. Some of the improvement, however, appeared to come from a redistribution or “mining” of P at lower soil depths. The results indicate that stratification and redistribution of nutrients were consistent with known effects of tillage modification and that slow improvements in soil fertility are being realized.     

耕作方式转变和秸秆还田对土壤活性有机碳的影响

深松是解决长期旋免耕后耕层浅薄化、亚表层(15~30 cm)容重增加等问题的有效方法之一,长期旋免耕后进行深松显著影响土壤有机碳及其组分的周转。为对比转变耕作方式对土壤活性有机碳(LOC)及碳库管理指数的影响,该研究基于连续6 a的旋耕转变为深松和免耕转变为深松定位试验,对比了2012-2014年长期旋免耕农田进行深松对农田土壤活性有机碳及碳库管理指数的影响。研究结果表明,耕作方式转变和秸秆还田均对土壤LOC含量、活性有机碳与有机碳的比例(LOC/SOC)和碳库管理指数产生显著影响。相对于原旋耕秸秆还田处理(RTS),虽然旋耕-深松秸秆还田处理(RTS-STS)提高了0~30 cm土层的LOC含量,但其土壤中LOC/SOC比例和碳库管理指数显著下降。而免耕-深松秸秆还田(NTS-STS)处理和耕作方式未转变的免耕秸秆还田处理(NTS)在0~10 cm土层其LOC含量无显著性差异,但NTS-STS处理显著提高LOC/SOC比例。耕作方式转变导致RTS-STS处理碳库管理指数随着土层的加深而逐渐降低,而NTS-STS处理则呈逐渐升高趋势。耕作、秸秆、年份、耕作与秸秆、耕作与年份及3者交互作用是导致耕作方式转变后各处理0~30 cm的LOC含量变化的主要作用力(P0.05)。秸秆还田条件下,将长期旋耕处理转变为深松可显著降低土壤SOC中的LOC比例,降低碳库管理指数,促进土壤碳库的稳定性;而长期免耕处理转变为深松能够显著提高土壤下层(10~30 cm)的土壤碳库活性。     

耕作方式对土壤水分入渗、有机碳含量及土壤结构的影响

为探明不同耕作方式对土壤剖面结构、水分入渗过程等的作用机理,采集田间长期定位耕作措施(常规耕作、免耕、深松)试验中的原状土柱(0~100 cm)及0~10 cm、10~20 cm、…、90~100 cm环刀样、原状土及混合土样,通过室内模拟试验进行了0~100 cm土层土壤入渗过程和饱和导水率的测定,分析了不同土层的土壤有机碳含量、土壤结构特征及相互关系。结果表明:从土柱顶部开始供水(恒定水头)到水分全部入渗到土柱底部的时间为:常规耕作免耕深松;土柱土壤入渗速率和累积入渗量为:深松免耕常规耕作;土柱累积蒸发量为:常规耕作免耕深松。土壤的饱和导水率表现为:0~10 cm和50~60 cm土层,免耕深松常规耕作;20~50 cm和60~100 cm土层,深松免耕常规耕作。随土层的加深,0.25 mm水稳性团聚体含量和土壤有机碳含量均表现为先增加(10~20 cm)再降低的趋势。在0~40 cm土层和80~100 cm土层,均以深松处理0.25 mm水稳性团聚体含量最高。在60 cm以上土层,土壤有机碳含量表现为:免耕深松常规耕作,而60 cm土层以下土壤有机碳显著降低,均低于4 g·kg?1,且在70 cm以下土层,常规耕作免耕深松。综上,耕作措施能够改变土壤有机碳含量,改善土壤结构,促进土壤蓄水保墒;深松更利于水分就地入渗,而免耕则更利于有机碳的提升和水分的储存,其作用深度在0~60 cm土层。     

A review of nitrogen fertilizer and conservation tillage effects on soil organic carbon storage

Abstract. The effects of nitrogen fertilizer and tillage systems on soil organic carbon (SOC) storage have been tested in many field experiments worldwide. The published results of this research are here compiled for evaluation of the impact of management practices on carbon sequestration. Paired data from 137 sites with varying nitrogen rates and 161 sites with contrasting tillage systems were included. Nitrogen fertilizer increased SOC but only when crop residues were returned to the soil; a multiple regression model accounted for just over half the variance (R²=0.56, P=0.001). The model included as independent variables: cumulative nitrogen fertilizer rate; rainfall; temperature; soil texture; and a cropping intensity index, calculated as a combination of the number of crops per year and percentage of corn in the rotation. Carbon sequestration increased as more nitrogen was applied to the system, and as rainfall or cropping intensity increased. At sites with higher mean temperatures and also in fine textured soils, carbon sequestration decreased. When the carbon costs of production, transportation and application of fertilizer are subtracted from the carbon sequestration predicted by the model, it appears that nitrogen fertilizer‐use in tropical regions results in no additional carbon sequestration, whereas in temperate climates, it appears to promote net carbon sequestration. No differences in SOC were found between reduced till (chisel, disc, and sweep till) and no‐till, whereas conventional tillage (mouldboard plough, disc plough) was associated with less SOC. The accumulation of SOC under conservation tillage (reduced and no till) was an S ‐shape time dependent process, which reached a steady state after 25–30 years, but this relationship only accounted for 26% of the variance. Averaging out SOC differences in all the experiments under conservation tillage, there was an increase of 2.1 t C ha^?1 over ploughing. However, when only those cases that had apparently reached equilibrium were included (all no till vs. conventional tillage comparisons from temperate regions), mean SOC increased by approximately 12 t C ha^?1. This estimate is larger than others previously reported. Carbon sequestration under conservation tillage was not significantly related to climate, soil texture or rotation.     

不同耕作方式对土壤有机碳、微生物量及酶活性的影响

长期保护性耕作提高土壤大团聚体含量及团聚体有机碳的作用

【目的】团聚体形成被认为是土壤固碳的最重要机制。本文以河南豫西地区长期耕作试验为研究对象,研究了长期保护性耕作对土壤团聚体性质及土壤有机碳(SOC)含量的影响,为探讨土壤固碳机理,优化黄土高原坡耕地区农田耕作管理措施,实现土壤固碳减排、培肥土壤提供理论依据。【方法】长期耕作试验开始于1999年,试验处理有免耕覆盖(NT)、深松覆盖(SM)和翻耕(CT)。利用湿筛法筛分第3年(2002年)和第13年(2011年)0—10cm和10—20 cm土层中,2000、250~2000、53~250和53μm级别的水稳性团聚体,计算团聚体平均质量直径(MWD),并测定了各级别团聚体的有机碳(SOC)含量。【结果】1)连续13年免耕覆盖和深松覆盖显著提高了土壤表层0—10 cm的SOC含量,分别比翻耕增加了33.47%和44.48%。2011年免耕覆盖和深松覆盖SOC含量较2002年上升了1.92%和8.59%,翻耕下降了18.97%。2)与翻耕相比,免耕覆盖和深松覆盖2000μm团聚体含量显著提高了40.71%和106.75%;53~250μm团聚体含量显著降低了19.72%和22.53%;团聚体平均质量直径显著提高了20.55%和39.68%,显示了土壤结构的明显改善。3)免耕覆盖和深松覆盖显著提高了表层土壤所有团聚体有机碳的含量,尤其以2000μm团聚体提升最多。与翻耕相比,2000μm团聚体有机碳分别提高了40.0%和27.6%。4)免耕覆盖和深松覆盖下表层土壤大团聚体有机碳含量随耕作年限增加,微团聚体有机碳随耕作年限降低。2000μm的土壤团聚体有机碳含量2011年较2002年分别升高了23.93%和7.12%,53~250μm微团聚体有机碳含量分别下降了19.58%和13.27%。【结论】长期保护性耕作(包括免耕覆盖和深松覆盖)可显著提高表层土壤大团聚体含量,降低微团聚体含量,提高团聚体的水稳性,改善土壤结构。同时可增加土壤团聚体有机碳含量,提高土壤肥力。长期保护性耕作在河南豫西丘陵地区是一种较为合理的耕作方式。     

Cover crop effect on soil carbon fractions under conservation tillage cotton

Cover crops may influence soil carbon (C) sequestration and microbial biomass and activities by providing additional residue C to soil. We examined the influence of legume [crimson clover (Trifolium incarnatum L.)], nonlegume [rye (Secale cereale L.)], blend [a mixture of legumes containing balansa clover (Trifolium michelianum Savi), hairy vetch (Vicia villosa Roth), and crimson clover], and rye + blend mixture cover crops on soil C fractions at the 0–150 mm depth from 2001 to 2003. Active fractions of soil C included potential C mineralization (PCM) and microbial biomass C (MBC) and slow fraction as soil organic C (SOC). Experiments were conducted in Dothan sandy loam (fine-loamy, kaolinitic, thermic, Plinthic Kandiudults) under dryland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) in central Georgia and in Tifton loamy sand (fine-loamy, siliceous, thermic, Plinthic Kandiudults) under irrigated cotton in southern Georgia, USA. Both dryland and irrigated cotton were planted in strip tillage system where planting rows were tilled, thereby leaving the areas between rows untilled. Total aboveground cover crop and cotton C in dryland and irrigated conditions were 0.72–2.90 Mg C ha⁻¹ greater in rye + blend than in other cover crops in 2001 but was 1.15–2.24 Mg C ha⁻¹ greater in rye than in blend and rye + blend in 2002. In dryland cotton, PCM at 50–150 mm was greater in June 2001 and 2002 than in January 2003 but MBC at 0–150 mm was greater in January 2003 than in June 2001. In irrigated cotton, SOC at 0–150 mm was greater with rye + blend than with crimson clover and at 0–50 mm was greater in March than in December 2002. The PCM at 0–50 and 0–150 mm was greater with blend and crimson clover than with rye in April 2001 and was greater with crimson clover than with rye and rye + blend in March 2002. The MBC at 0–50 mm was greater with rye than with blend and crimson clover in April 2001 and was greater with rye, blend, and rye + blend than with crimson clover in March 2002. As a result, PCM decreased by 21–24 g CO₂–C ha⁻¹ d⁻¹ but MBC increased by 90–224 g CO₂–C ha⁻¹ d⁻¹ from June 2001 to January 2003 in dryland cotton. In irrigated cotton, SOC decreased by 0.1–1.1 kg C ha⁻¹ d⁻¹, and PCM decreased by 10 g CO₂–C ha⁻¹ d⁻¹ with rye to 79 g CO₂–C ha⁻¹ d⁻¹ with blend, but MBC increased by 13 g CO₂–C ha⁻¹ d⁻¹ with blend to 120 g CO₂–C ha⁻¹ d⁻¹ with crimson clover from April 2001 to December 2002. Soil active C fractions varied between seasons due to differences in temperature, water content, and substrate availability in dryland cotton, regardless of cover crops. In irrigated cotton, increase in crop C input with legume + nonlegume treatment increased soil C storage and microbial biomass but lower C/N ratio of legume cover crops increased C mineralization and microbial activities in the spring.
