北方农牧交错带沙地生物结皮研究

为了解我国北方农牧交错带生物结皮的生态意义,本文以宁夏盐池为例,采用样线调查法进行结皮及植被调查,并在有结皮和无结皮覆盖两种情况下进行入渗试验。研究表明:北方半干旱区生物结皮对植物生长存在先促进、后抑制的过程。在风蚀环境条件和不稳定的土壤条件下,生物结皮的出现可创造适合植物生长的微环境,为植物的生长提供了条件。方差分析显示有结皮时的植被盖度明显高于无结皮覆盖的植被盖度。当环境条件改善时,结皮开始抑制植物的生长,两者存在一种显著的线性负相关关系。研究区从封育边缘到核心,结皮盖度为核心>边缘,植被盖度正好相反,两者的相关系数高达-0.920;生物结皮对入渗具有明显的阻碍作用,结皮盖度与入渗深度之间呈线性负相关,相关系数为-0.765,说明结皮的存在使土壤水分呈现浅层化趋势。     

毛乌素沙地南缘沙区水分入渗特征及其影响因素

水分入渗是土壤水分循环的重要环节。为探明毛乌素沙地生物结皮覆盖沙区水分入渗特征及其影响因素,采用双环法测定不同类型地表(裸沙、浅灰色藻类结皮、黑褐色藻类结皮和藓类结皮,依次用BS、LC、DC和MC表示)水分入渗速率及其土壤理化性质。结果表明:1与BS相比,LC、DC和MC样地初始入渗率分别减少了37.7%、59.2%和73.6%,稳定前平均入渗率分别减少了37.5%、62.2%和81.3%,稳定入渗率分别减少了13.6%、67.4%和78.9%,累计入渗量分别减少了25.8%、61.3%和78.6%。2不同类型地表达到稳定入渗所需的时间在3~8 min;相关性分析结果显示,水分入渗速率与砂粒和土壤容重呈正相关关系,与粉粒、黏粒、结皮厚度、结皮抗剪强度、结皮层容重和有机碳含量呈负相关关系。3主成分分析结果表明,黏粒、结皮抗剪强度和土壤容重是影响该地区水分入渗速率的主要因子。因此,生物结皮在沙丘表面的形成和发育过程中,通过改变土壤的理化性质,减缓了该地区水分入渗速率,增加了降水的径流流失风险。     

黄土地表生物结皮对土壤贮水性能及水分入渗特征的影响

采用双环法对山西省偏关县3种结皮覆盖下(苔藓藻结皮、藻结皮和薄层藻结皮)土壤的贮水性能和渗透特征进行了对比研究.结果表明:不同结皮覆盖下土壤的贮水能力受结皮厚度和孔隙度状况的影响较大,0～10 cm土层饱和贮水量为502.69～525.80 t/hm2 ,滞留贮水量为169.71～198.29 t/hm2;初渗速率的变化范围为5. 19～11.10 mm/min,无结皮最高,苔藓藻结皮最低;稳渗速率变化范围为1.6 7～2.67 mm/min.采用的3种入渗模型(Kostiakov模型、Horton模型和Ph ilip模型)中Horton模型的拟合值更接近于实测值, 决定系数R2在0.98～0.99,更适用于描述本研究区具有生物结皮土壤的入渗特征.     

荒漠结皮对土壤水分状况的影响

本研究针对鄂尔多斯沙地生物结皮进行调查 ,利用人工喷水模拟降雨分析结皮对土壤入渗性能的影响。研究表明 :生物结皮能显著地降低土壤水分的入渗速率。在去掉结皮时 ,表层下 5 cm处的土壤含水量在 1 0分钟时即开始显著增加 ,而有结皮时 ,此处的含水量则在 1 5分钟时才开始显著增加。利用圆盘入渗仪测定有结皮和无结皮条件下的土壤饱和导水率表明 :固定沙丘间地有生物结皮的土壤饱和导水率范围是 :2 9.1 0 - 82 .2 1 mm/ h;半固定沙丘有微弱结皮时饱和导水率为 1 43.5 4 - 2 30 .2 5 ;去掉结皮后土壤的饱和导水率可显著上升数倍 ,无结皮的流沙的饱和导水率最高。     

沙坡头地区生物结皮的水文物理特点及其环境意义

包兰铁路中甘段,大规模生物防护体系取得了明显的生态环境效益。随着时间的展延环境诸要素发生变化,特别生物结皮的形成和发育,制约着生态防护体系的演变和发展。生物结皮是人工生态防护体系建立后,外来尘埃动态沉积,一年生植被的侵入,植物凋落物腐解,在微生物及其环境条件综合作用下的新生成物。生物结皮作为一新的环境因子介入人工生态防护体系之中,使沙面固结稳定,增强了抗风蚀的能力。同时它的形成和发育,增大了降水的无效蒸发,使降雨入渗浅,沙地水分恶化,导致深根性植物衰退,浅根性的半灌木和草本植物得到发展,使人工体系向半人工半自然体系变化和演变。     

生物结皮对荒漠草本植物群落结构的影响

通过人工去除生物结皮试验,分析古尔班通古特沙漠生物结皮对常见荒漠草本植物群落结构的影响。根据人为去除生物结皮的试验结果,结合生物结皮对种子萌发、幼苗存活以及土壤养分和水分等影响,综合分析生物结皮对草本植物多样性的影响。结果表明:尖喙牻牛儿苗(Erodium oxyrrhynchum)、条叶庭荠(Alyssum linifolium)、琉苞菊(Hyalea pulchella)、荒漠庭荠(Alyssum desertorum)及旱麦草(Eremopyrum triticeum)的生物量总和占总生物量的90%以上,是该沙漠的优势草本植物。去除生物结皮后,草本植物的植被高度、物种丰富度和多样性指数都显著提高;但是,植被盖度、密度和群落生物量却显著降低。说明生物结皮的存在改变了古尔班通古特沙漠南缘荒漠草本植物的群落结构,植被盖度和群落生物量提高,这对于防风固沙、稳定沙面具有重要的生态意义。     

不同利用类型土壤水分下渗特征试验研究

以延安市柳林镇高坡村不同利用类型的土地为研究对象,采用双环法进行水分入渗试验,分析讨论不同土地利用类型土壤水分平均入渗速率、稳渗率等下渗特征.结果表明：①不同土地利用类型水分入渗速率均可用霍顿方程来描述;②留茬农地入渗前200 min平均入渗速率可达1.52 mm/min,稳渗率为1.17 mm/min,其它土地利用类型其平均入渗速率与稳渗率均表现为留茬农地＞耕地＞荒草地＞田间道路;③土壤容重直接影响水分入渗,容重愈大,稳渗率愈低,两者呈指数函数关系.     

土壤入渗中气相对水流运动影响的研究

土壤孔隙中的流体包括土壤空气和水分两部分，由于地面积水限制了土壤空气的推出而使得土壤空气被禁锢，被禁锢的土壤空气阻碍水流运动。恒定土壤空气压力对累积入渗水量的影响约为0.4%-3%；到入渗稳定阶段，湿润土壤区域水分含量相差1．5％。正常入渗不同于恒压入渗情况，120min时，禁锢土壤空气压力的减渗量约为16％。     

古尔班通古特沙漠生物结皮影响下土壤水分的日变化

对新疆古尔班通古特沙漠生物结皮影响下土壤水分的日变化特征进行了定量研究,结果表明:①无论是结皮覆盖区还是无结皮覆盖区,其土壤含水量随深度的变化均表现出明显的层次性,其中以距地表 20 cm处的土壤含水量最高.②结皮覆盖区距地表5 cm和10 cm处的土壤含水量显著高于无结皮覆盖区(LSD检验, p ＜0.05);而45 cm和60 cm处的土壤含水量则表现为结皮覆盖区极显著低于无结皮区(LSD检验,p＜0.05),说明生物结皮具有较强的保持土壤表层水分的能力.③结皮覆盖区与无结皮覆盖区土壤水分的日变化特征明显不同于距地表5 cm处,而其他各土层的变化趋势则较为一致.无结皮覆盖区距地表5 cm处土壤水分的日变化呈先上升后下降的趋势,而结皮覆盖区的变化则恰恰相反.

柠条锦鸡儿(Caragana korshinskii)、白皮锦鸡儿(C.leucophloea)、刺叶锦鸡儿(C.acanthophylla)和长枝木蓼(Atraphaxis virgata)在植被恢复中具有潜在价值,可作为荒山绿化的先锋植物种。通过人工控制水分,比较4种灌木幼苗对干旱胁迫的生长响应。结果表明:幼苗的株高、基径、生长率和生物量均随着水分胁迫的加剧而降低,柠条锦鸡儿和长枝木蓼在水分胁迫下各指标的减少量较白皮锦鸡儿和刺叶锦鸡儿明显。幼苗在干旱胁迫下将生物量更多的分配给根系,幼苗的根冠比增加,光合生物量比基本维持恒定,长枝木蓼的根冠比基本不变。4种灌木对干旱均有一定的耐受能力,其排序为:白皮锦鸡儿>刺叶锦鸡儿>柠条锦鸡儿>长枝木蓼。     

土壤吸附作用对土壤水分有效性的影响

围绕土壤结皮生物是否可以对夜间土壤吸附水输入产生响应展开研究。假定-1.5 MPa作为土壤水分有效性的临界值,通过观测降水后清晨和午后0~3 cm土壤含水量,分析土壤水分的有效性和空间异质性;并利用连续记录气象数据,建立表层土壤含水量与水汽压饱和差数量关系。结果表明:土壤吸附作用提高了土壤水分对土壤结皮生物的有效性,并延长了土壤结皮生物对降水脉冲的响应时段。在古尔班通古特沙漠东南部的不同部位,凝结吸附作用对沙面水分条件影响很大(特别是干旱季节),水分条件由好到坏依次为:沙垄西坡面、沙垄垄顶、沙垄东坡面和垄间低地。     

Microbiotic Crust Influence on Unsaturated Hydraulic Conductivity

Microbiotic crusts occur extensively in rangeland soils . Developed by filaments of cyanobacteria and algae , and thalli of lichen and moss entanglement of soil particles , they create a physical discontinuity in the surface profile with greater concen trations of clay , silt , and potentially hydrophobic organic matter. These conditions potentially contribute to variability in soil hydrology of arid land and should be considered in the development of hydrologic and erosion models. However, there is limited manipulative research examining the functional relationships between soil and microbiotic crusts . We investigated the influence of cyanobacterial-dominated microbiotic crust on measured hydraulic conductivity (K) in a sandy loam soil at a southeastern Utah site . Using a tension infiltrometer , we determined K under three surface treatments: undisturbed , chemically killed (representing dead microphytes within the crust), and removed (scalped) microbiotic crusts. We applied treatments to spatially interspersed intact surface soils within shrub interspaces . Microbiotic crusts at this site and in this stage of successional development had no discernible influence on K. This finding supports results from research conducted in a variety of soils from sandy to silt dominated with a range of microbiotic development . Because this research was site and time specific , and because the role of microbiotic crusts in the environment continues to be debated , additional research is warranted to deter mine how stage of development of microbiotic crust influences soil hydrology .     

One-dimensional horizontal infiltration experiment for determining permeability coefficient of loamy sand

A knowledge of soil permeability is essential to evaluate hydrologic characteristics of soil, such as water storage and water movement, and soil permeability coefficient is an important parameter that reflects soil permeability. In order to confirm the acceptability of the one-dimensional horizontal infiltration method(one-D method) for simultaneously determining both the saturated and unsaturated permeability coefficients of loamy sand, we first measured the cumulative infiltration and the wetting front distance under various infiltration heads through a series of one-dimensional horizontal infiltration experiments, and then analyzed the relationships of the cumulative horizontal infiltration with the wetting front distance and the square root of infiltration time. We finally compared the permeability results from Gardner model based on the one-D method with the results from other two commonly-used methods(i.e., constant head method and van Genuchten model) to evaluate the acceptability and applicability of the one-D method. The results showed that there was a robust linear relationship between the cumulative horizontal infiltration and the wetting front distance, suggesting that it is more appropriate to take the soil moisture content after infiltration in the entire wetted zone as the average soil moisture content than as the saturated soil moisture content. The results also showed that there was a robust linear relationship between the cumulative horizontal infiltration and the square root of infiltration time, suggesting that the Philip infiltration formula can better reflect the characteristics of cumulative horizontal infiltration under different infiltration heads. The following two facts indicate that it is feasible to use the one-D method for simultaneously determining the saturated and unsaturated permeability coefficients of loamy sand. First, the saturated permeability coefficient(prescribed in the Gardner model) of loamy sand obtained from the one-D method well agreed with the value obtained from the constant head method. Second, the relationship of unsaturated permeability coefficient with soil water suction for loamy sand calculated using Gardner model based on the one-D method was nearly identical with the same relationship calculated using van Genuchten model.     

Effects of mixed-based biochar on water infiltration and evaporation in aeolian sand soil

Aeolian sandy soil in mining areas exhibits intense evaporation and poor water retention capacity. This study was designed to find a suitable biochar application method to improve soil water infiltration and minimize soil water evaporation for aeolian sand soil. Using the indoor soil column method, we studied the effects of three application patterns (A (0-20 cm was a mixed sample of mixed-based biochar and soil), B (0-10 cm was a mixed sample of mixed-based biochar and soil and 10-20 cm was soil), and C (0-10 cm was soil and 10-20 cm was a mixed sample of mixed-based biochar and soil)), four application amounts (0% (control, CK), 1%, 2%, and 4% of mixed-based biochar in dry soil), and two particle sizes (0.05-0.25 mm (S1) and <0.05 mm (S2)) of mixed-based biochar on water infiltration and evaporation of aeolian sandy soil. We separately used five infiltration models (the Philip, Kostiakov, Horton, USDA-NRCS (United States Department of Agriculture-Natural Resources Conservation Service), and Kostiakov-Lewis models) to fit cumulative infiltration and time. Compared with CK, the application of mixed-based biochar significantly reduced cumulative soil water infiltration. Under application patterns A, B, and C, the higher the application amount and the finer the particle size were, the lower the migration speed of the wetting front. With the same application amount, cumulative soil water infiltration under application pattern A was the lowest. Taking infiltration for 10 min as an example, the reductions of cumulative soil water infiltration under the treatments of A2%_(S2), A4%_(S1), A4%_(S2), A1%_(S1), C2%_(S1), and B1%_(S1) were higher than 30%, which met the requirements of loess soil hydraulic parameters suitable for plant growth. The five infiltration models well fitted the effects of the treatments of application pattern C and S1 particle size (R²>0.980), but the R² values of the Horton model exceeded 0.990 for all treatments (except for the treatment B2%_(S2)). Compared with CK, all other treatments reduced cumulative soil water infiltration, except for B4%_(S2). With the same application amount, cumulative soil water evaporation difference between application patterns A and B was small. Treatments of application pattern C and S1 particle size caused a larger reduction in cumulative soil water evaporation. The reductions in cumulative soil water evaporation under the treatments of C4%_(S1), C4%_(S2), C2%_(S1), and C2%_(S2) were over 15.00%. Therefore, applying 2% of mixed-based biochar with S1 particle size to the underlying layer (10-20 cm) could improve soil water infiltration while minimizing soil water evaporation. Moreover, application pattern was the main factor affecting soil water infiltration and evaporation. Further, there were interactions among the three influencing factors in the infiltration process (application amount×particle size with the most important interaction), while there were no interactions among them in the evaporation process. The results of this study could contribute to the rational application of mixed-based biochar in aeolian sandy soil and the resource utilization of urban and agricultural wastes in mining areas.     

浑水灌溉入渗特性研究进展与展望

在综合国内外相关研究文献的基础上,分析了浑水入渗机制和浑水入渗模型方面的研究进展。从研究成果中可以得出:利用静水做浑水灌溉入渗试验的较多,而利用动水做浑水灌溉入渗试验研究的比较少;不同含沙率对土壤入渗的影响研究方面研究成果比较多,而对不同的泥沙粒度组成对土壤入渗的影响研究较少;一次浑水灌溉土壤入渗研究较多,而致密层形成后进行二次灌溉情况下的土壤入渗研究较少;在室内利用下渗环等试验设备进行土壤入渗试验的较多,而在大田实验土壤入渗试验方面的研究较少;在裸地做土壤入渗试验的较多,而在有种植作物的大田上进行土壤入渗试验的较少。为了更深入的进行浑水灌溉下的土壤入渗机制的研究,建议以后试验中考虑浑水灌溉中动水入渗试验方面的研究,并将不同泥沙粒度组成对土壤入渗的影响、大田作物的影响、多次浑水灌溉对土壤入渗的影响以及浑水灌溉条件下水肥耦合方面的试验研究和浑水膜孔灌溉方面的试验研究等作为研究的重点,逐步深入的研究浑水灌溉入渗特性,为实际应用提供理论依据。
