Tillage and crop sequence effects on organic carbon and total nitrogen content in an irrigated Alberta soil

A better understanding of tillage effects on soil organic matter is vital for development of effective soil conservation practices. The objective of this research is to determine the effect of tillage and crop sequence on soil organic carbon (OC) and total nitrogen (TN) content in an irrigated southern Alberta soil. A field experiment was conducted using a split–split plot design from 1994 to 1998 in Alberta, Canada. There were two crop sequences (Sequence 1: spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)–sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.)–spring wheat–annual legume; and Sequence 2: spring wheat–spring wheat–annual legume–sugar beet) and two tillage practices (CT: conventional tillage and MT: minimum tillage). Surface soil under MT had significantly higher OC (30.1 Mg ha⁻¹) content than under CT (28.3 Mg ha⁻¹) after 4 years of treatment. The MT treatment retains crop residue at the soil surface, reduces soil erosion and slows organic matter decomposition, which are key factors in enhancing the soil fertility status of southern Alberta irrigated soils.     

地膜覆盖下土壤有机质的分解与积累

还田有机物在地膜覆盖下的分解略高于露地栽培,腐殖化系数为0.17～0.41,土壤有机质的年亩矿化量为92～164kg.有机无机肥配施,对土壤有机质的贡献高于不施肥、单施化肥和单施有机肥,尤其是未经分解的有机物,适量配施化肥,明显优于等氮量的腐熟有机肥.为此,要重新组合农业措施.以调整土壤有机质分解与积累之间的关系.     

不同风沙土壤颗粒的分形特征

应用土壤颗粒的重量与粒径分布原理来描述了古尔班通古特沙漠地风沙土壤颗粒的分形特征。通过对10种样品颗粒的机械组成进行分析,分别计算出了它们的分形维数(D=2.3237～2.9347),并分析了其与流动风沙土、半固定风沙土和固定风沙土之间的关系。分析结果表明,风沙土壤结构具有明显的分形特征,其粒径分布分形维数为2～3。土粒表面分形维数与2～0.2mm间的土粒含量存在显著的负相关;而与0.02～0.002mm和<0.002mm的颗粒含量存在显著的正相关,表现为随着土壤质地从流动风沙土、半固定风沙土到固定风沙土的变化,其土粒表面的平均分形维数呈依次增高。土粒表面分形维数与三种典型风沙土壤有机质含量为极显著正相关,而与其硬度为显著负相关。

放牧强度对高寒混播草地土壤养分含量的影响

垂穗披碱草/星星草混播草地三个放牧季的牦牛放牧试验结果表明:①放牧强度和土壤层深度对有机质含量的影响均达到极显著的水平(P<0.01),且土壤有机质含量随放牧强度的增加呈下降趋势;②放牧强度对土壤速效氮和速效磷的影响不显著(P>0.05),对速效钾的影响显著(P<0.05);不同土壤层速效氮和速效钾含量之间的差异显著(P<0.05),速效磷含量之间的差异不显著(P>0.05)。     

长期不同施肥模式对潮土有机碳组分的影响

采用物理分组方法分析了长期不同施肥模式条件下潮土有机碳组分变化及其分布规律。结果表明,与不施肥（CK）比较,长期氮、磷、钾平衡施用（NPK）、秸秆还田（NPKS）和有机无机肥配施（NPKM和1.5NPKM）均显著提高了潮土粗自由颗粒有机碳（cfPOC）、微团聚体内物理保护颗粒有机碳（iPOC）及矿物结合有机碳（mSOC）的含量,其中以粗自由颗粒有机碳增幅最高,达114.5%～278.9％,对施肥最敏感,能较好反映长期施肥下土壤有机碳库的变化。矿物结合有机碳是潮土固存有机碳的主要形式,它占总有机碳的67.0%～80.4%。除偏施化肥（N和NP）外,其它施肥模式增加的总有机碳有49.1%～58.1%进入矿物结合有机碳组分;26.2%～31.7%进入粗、细自由颗粒有机碳组分;15.7%～20.9%进入物理保护有机碳组分。偏施化肥（N和NP）有利于自由颗粒有机碳的增加。综上分析,长期有机无机肥配施或秸秆还田是提升潮土不同组分有机碳库的较好施肥模式。     

不同利用年限红壤水稻土有机碳和养分含量的粒级分布变化

通过田间采样结合沉降法分级提取,研究了不同利用年限红壤水稻土有机碳和养分含量的粒级分布变化特征。结果表明,红壤水稻土有机碳和养分含量随土壤颗粒粒径的增大而下降,但在各粒级中的分布比例存在显著差异。<0.002mm、0.002～0.02mm、0.02～0.05mm、>0.05mm粒级的有机碳占全土有机碳的比例分别是29.2%、30.7%、11.9%、15.4%,氮的相应数值为36.7%、31.9%、10.2%、14.0%,磷为49.2%、26.5%、11.1%、12.4%,钾为36.9%、33.4%、12.9%、20.0%。总体来说,黏粒和粉粒中有机碳和养分的分布比例较高。红壤水稻土有机碳和养分含量及分布比例还随利用年限而有明显变化。开垦利用不到10a的水田土壤,有机碳和养分含量较低且主要集中在<0.002mm粒级中;而利用超过10a的水稻土,有机碳和养分在粉粒中(0.002～0.05mm)的比例大于50%。各利用年限的红壤水稻土多以0.02～0.05mm粒级的C/N为最高,并随利用年限延长而下降。红壤水稻土各粒级有机碳和养分含量及分布状况随利用年限的变化反映了土壤肥力熟化和养分有效性的提高过程。     

Starving the soil of plant inputs for 50 years reduces abundance but not diversity of soil bacterial communities

If soil communities rely on plant-derived carbon, is biodiversity lost when this primary source is removed? Soil microbial and mesofaunal communities at the Rothamsted Highfield site were compared under a mixed grass sward, arable rotation and a section maintained as a bare-fallow for the past 50 years by regular tillage. Organic matter reserves have been degraded and microbial and mesofaunal numbers and mite diversity have declined in this unique bare-fallow site, where fresh carbon inputs have been drastically reduced. However, it supports a species-rich metabolically active bacterial community of similar diversity to that in soil maintained as grass sward. Thus in contrast to soil mesofauna, bacterial diversity (but not abundance) is apparently independent of plant inputs.     

The effect of low-molecular-weight organic acids and inorganic phosphorus concentration on the determination of soil phosphorus by the molybdenum blue reaction

Low-molecular-weight organic acids play an important role in the mobilization of soil phosphorus (P). The molybdate blue colorimetric method, based on the formation of P molybdenum blue compound, is commonly used for analysis of phosphate in soil and environmental samples. However, some organic acids can act as a ligand to bond with molybdenum acid, which subsequently interfere with the colorimetric reaction. The recoveries of P were inhibited by the addition of oxalic (>2 mM) and citric acids (>3 mM) both in standard P solutions and soil extracts, but formic and maleic acids did not interfere with the P determination. The inhibition of oxalic and citric acids on P recovery remained even at higher level of P (up to 100 μg P 100 ml⁻¹) though such interferences decreased by increasing P concentration. Comparison between oxalic and citric acids revealed the more pronounced interference by the addition of oxalic acid. The results suggested that the interference of organic acids with P determination is related to the types of organic acids and the ratio of organic acid ligands to P anions in the solutions. Thus, analysis of P using the molybdate blue colorimetric method should be undertaken cautiously in the presence of relative strong ligands like oxalic and citric acids.
