Effect of Simulated N Deposition on Soil Respiration in a Larix olgensis Plantation Forest

doi:10.7525/j.issn.1673-5102.2016.04.016

Abstract

Abstract: A two-year simulated N deposition experiment was conducted to explore the effects of different levels of nitrogen(N)deposition on soil respiration, with four different N supply levels, including control(CK, 0 g·m^-2·a^-1 N), low(N1, 5 g·m^-2·a^-1 N), intermediate(N2, 10 g·m^-2·a^-1 N)and high level(N3, 15 g·m^-2·a^-1 N), in a 26-year-old Larix olgensis plantation forest in Mao'ershan experimental forest farm of northeast forestry university. Average annual soil respiration rate under different treatments was significantly promoted in the first year(P<0.05); Average annual soil respiration rate and heterotrophic respiration rate were significantly decreased under N2 and N3 treatments(P<0.05), respectively, and average annual soil respiration rate was significantly increased(P<0.05), heterotrophic respiration rate had no difference compared with control(P>0.05)under N1 treatment, in the second year. Soil microbial biomass carbon was significantly increased under N1 treatment(P<0.05), while N2 and N3 had no difference compared with control(P>0.05); Significantly positive exponential relationship was detected between soil respiration and soil temperature in 5 and 10 cm(P<0.01). The temperature sensitivity of soil respiration(Q₁₀)in both soil layer was increased under N1 treatment and decreased under N2 and N3 treatments compared with control, respectively. Soil respiration rate and its temperature sensitivity were altered under different N deposition levels, suggesting that the progress of soil carbon emission was accelerated under low levels of N deposition and slowed down under relatively high levels of N deposition in a short period.

Key words: Larix olgensis, plantation forest, N deposition, soil respiration, root respiration, heterotrophic respiration
