Effects of simulated acid rain leaching on the litter decomposition of coniferous broad-leaved mixed forest and evergreen broad-leaved forest in Mount Jinyun

  Objective  This study, with an investigation of the characteristics and laws of litter decomposition in mixed coniferous and broad-leaved forest and evergreen broad-leaved forest during acid rain in Jinyun Mountain, is aimed to provide scientific basis for the optimization of forest management and the guidance in forest stand allocation.   Method  With two typical forests of Jinyun Mountain in Chongqing selected, four acid rain simulation experiments with different concentrations were conducted. Then, with the employment of the Olson negative exponential decay model, the decomposition rate of litter of two forest stands was assessed, and the laws of litter decomposition in two typical forest stands under simulated acid rain were analyzed.   Result   (1) After a six-month decomposition, in comparison, the mass residue rate of the mixed coniferous and broad-leaved forest treated with acid rain of pH 4.50(ck), pH 4.00, pH 3.25, and pH 2.50 was higher than those of the evergreen broad-leaved forest under the same conditions by 4.60%, 3.78%, 4.22% and 5.39%. (2) The time for the control group to reach half-life and full-life of litter decomposition in the coniferous and broad-leaved mixed forest was 1.62 a and 6.98 a whereas that for evergreen broad-leaved forest was 1.29 and 5.56 a; the time for the material loss rate to reach 50% and 95% for the coniferous and broad-leaved mixed forest litter under different concentrations of acid rain is 1.47?2.00 a and 6.35?8.43 a whereas that for the evergreen broad-leaved forest is 1.23?1.50 a and 5.33?6.48 a. (3) The k values of the mixed coniferous and broad-leaved forests treated with ck, pH 4.0, pH 3.25, and pH 2.5 were 0.43, 0.47, 0.40, and 0.35, respectively while those of the evergreen broad-leaved forest were 0.54, 0.56, 0.51, and 0.46, respectively, and the overall k value shows a downward trend as the pH value of the treatment decreases. (4) The simulated acid rain with pH 4.00 in the study area promoted the decomposition of litter in the forest to a certain extent whereas the simulated acid rain with pH 2.50 and pH 3.25 inhibited the decomposition of falling objects in different forests to a certain extent.   Conclusion  In Jinyun Mountain of Chongqing, simulated acid rain of different concentrations had a significant effect on the decomposition rates of litters in the two typical stands and the decomposition rate of evergreen broad-leaved forest was higher than that of coniferous and broad-leaved mixed forest.
