摘要 | Characterizing the spatial variation in the CO(2) flux at both large and small scales is essential for precise estimation of an ecosystem's CO(2) sink strength. However, little is known about small-scale CO(2) flux variations in an ecosystem. We explored these variations in a Kobresia meadow ecosystem on the Qinghai-Tibetan plateau in relation to spatial variability in species composition and biomass. We established 14 points and measured net ecosystem production (NEP), gross primary production (GPP), and ecosystem respiration (Re) in relation to vegetation biomass, species richness, and environmental variables at each point, using an automated chamber system during the 2005 growing season. Mean light-saturated NEP and GPP were 30.3 and 40.5 mu mol CO(2) m(-2) s(-1) [coefficient of variation (CV), 42.7 and 29.4], respectively. Mean Re at 20A degrees C soil temperature, Re(20), was -10.9 mu mol CO(2) m(-2) s(-1) (CV, 27.3). Re(20) was positively correlated with vegetation biomass. GPP(max) was positively correlated with species richness, but 2 of the 14 points were outliers. Vegetation biomass was the main determinant of spatial variation of Re, whereas species richness mainly affected that of GPP, probably reflecting the complexity of canopy structure and light partitioning in this small grassland patch. |
