Response of testate amoeba assemblages to environmental and climatic changes during the Lateglacial–Holocene transition at Lake Lautrey (Jura Mountains,eastern France)

We tested the response of lacustrine testate amoebae (thecamoebians) to climate and environmental changes for the Lateglacial–Holocene transition. The palaeoenvironmental history of the study site (Lake Lautrey, Jura Mountains, eastern France) was previously established based on high‐resolution multi‐proxy studies of the same core. The present study is characterised by a high taxonomic resolution (54 taxa), inclusion of small species (down to 25 µm) and high total counts (>500 individuals per sample on average). Changes in the composition of testate amoeba assemblages (dominant species and assemblage structure), as well as in the accumulation rate (tests cm^?2 a^?1), corresponded to major climatic phases (i.e. Oldest Dryas, Bølling–Allerød Interstadial, Younger Dryas, Preboreal) as well as changes in organic matter inputs. Furthermore, decreases in the accumulation rate characterised minor short‐lived cooling events, such as Older Dryas event or Gerzensee oscillation. However, the Preboreal oscillation, which was well registered by other proxies at Lake Lautrey, could not be recognised in the testate amoeba record. This work demonstrates that lacustrine testate amoebae can be used for palaeoclimatic and palaeoecological reconstructions. Nevertheless, a better understanding of the relation between climate, organic matter and lacustrine testate amoebae requires further high‐resolution studies based on multi‐proxy approaches and the development of appropriate modern analogues.

Statistical testing of a new testate amoeba‐based transfer function for water‐table depth reconstruction on ombrotrophic peatlands in north‐eastern Canada and Maine,United States

Proxy reconstructions of climatic parameters developed using transfer functions are central to the testing of many palaeoclimatic hypotheses on Holocene timescales. However, recent work shows that the mathematical models underpinning many existing transfer functions are susceptible to spatial autocorrelation, clustered training set design and the uneven sampling of environmental gradients. This may result in over‐optimistic performance statistics or, in extreme cases, a lack of predictive power. A new testate amoeba‐based transfer function is presented that fully incorporates the new recommended statistical tests to address these issues. Leave‐one‐out cross‐validation, the most commonly applied method in recent studies to assess model performance, produced over‐optimistic performance statistics for all models tested. However, the preferred model, developed using weighted averaging with tolerance downweighting, retained a predictive capacity equivalent to other published models even when less optimistic performance statistics were chosen. Application of the new statistical tests in the development of transfer functions provides a more thorough assessment of performance and greater confidence in reconstructions based on them. Only when the wider research community have sufficient confidence in transfer function‐based proxy reconstructions will they be commonly used in data comparison and palaeoclimate modelling studies of broader scientific relevance.

Holocene hydro-climatic change and effects on carbon accumulation inferred from a peat bog in the Attawapiskat River watershed,Hudson Bay Lowlands,Canada

Multiple proxies from a 319-cm peat core collected from the Hudson Bay Lowlands, northern Ontario, Canada were analyzed to determine how carbon accumulation has varied as a function of paleohydrology and paleoclimate. Testate amoeba assemblages, analysis of peat composition and humification, and a pollen record from a nearby lake suggest that isostatic rebound and climate may have influenced peatland growth and carbon dynamics over the past 6700 cal yr BP. Long-term apparent rates of carbon accumulation ranged between 8.1 and 36.7 g C m^? 2 yr^? 1 (average = 18.9 g C m^? 2 yr^? 1). The highest carbon accumulation estimates were recorded prior to 5400 cal yr BP when a fen existed at this site, however following the fen-to-bog transition carbon accumulation stabilized. Carbon accumulation remained relatively constant through the Neoglacial period after 2400 cal yr BP when pollen-based paleoclimate reconstructions from a nearby lake (McAndrews et al., 1982) and reconstructions of the depth to the water table derived from testate amoeba data suggest a wetter climate. More carbon accumulated per unit time between 1000 and 600 cal yr BP, coinciding in part with the Medieval Climate Anomaly.

利用多目标区域地球化学调查数据,估算了重庆西部地区表层土壤有机碳密度和储量。结果表明,重庆西部地区表层(0~20 cm)土壤有机碳储量为41 038 589 t,平均密度为2 929 t·km-2。从地貌类型看,低山(2 984 t·km-2)和中山(2 986 t·km-2)区土壤有机碳密度较高,丘陵区(2 628 t·km-2)最低,山地土壤有机碳储量最丰富。不同类型土壤中,石灰土有机碳平均密度最高(5 043 t·km-2),其次为黄壤(3 756 t·km-2),紫色土最低(2 329 t·km-2),紫色土有机碳储量最大。就土地利用方式而言,林地土壤有机碳平均密度最高(4 071 t·km-2),耕地土壤处于中等水平(2 752 t·km-2),居民及建筑用地有机碳密度最低(2 416 t·km-2),耕地土壤有机碳储量最大。与第二次土壤普查数据对比发现,该区土壤有机碳储量和密度呈降低趋势,表层土壤作为碳源向大气释放碳,尤其是江津、潼南地区土壤有机碳密度分别降低了56.7%、45.1%。     

桂林毛村岩溶区不同土地利用方式土壤有机碳矿化及土壤碳结构比较

应用土壤培养法,比较分析了桂林毛村岩溶区不同土地利用方式(农田、灌丛和林地)土壤在25℃、黑暗条件下培养90d有机碳矿化速率的差异(以90d累计释放的CO2-C计)。农田土壤矿化释放的CO2-C含量分别比灌丛和林地少62.9%和56.6%。利用6mol/L的HCl酸解法得到惰性碳含量,并利用三库一级动力学方程在SAS8.2软件中通过非线性拟合得到三种土地利用方式的活性碳库、缓效性碳库的大小及其分解速率,计算得出各库驻留时间。结果表明各土地利用方式均为活性碳库含量最少,占总有机碳的比例在1.82%~2.71%之间,平均驻留时间在8.4~16.3d之间;缓效性碳库次之,占总有机碳的比例在33.91%~45.47%之间,平均驻留时间为4.8~7.7a之间;惰性碳库所占比例最大,在51.82%~64.01%之间,平均驻留时间为假定的1000a。通过固态13C交叉极化魔角自旋核磁共振(13CCPMASNMR)方法对土壤碳结构进行分析,结果表明:与灌丛和林地相比,受人类活动干扰较多的农田烷基C和芳香C的比例增加,烷氧C和羰基C的比例降低;烷基C/烷氧C和疏水C/亲水C的大小顺序均为农田>林地>灌丛,而脂族C/芳香C的大小顺序则相反,即灌丛>林地>农田。这说明农田土壤有机碳分解程度较高,难分解程度增加,难分解有机碳比例增加。      

Distribution of particulate organic carbon in the central Bay of Bengal

Particulate organic carbon (POC) was measured for 77 water samples collected over a 3000 m water column along 88° E in the central Bay of Bengal. The POC values varied from 80 to 895 μg per litre at the surface and 171 to 261 μg per litre at 2000 m. The POC decreased with increasing water depth at all the stations. Deep water concentrations of POC were higher than those reported from other oceanic waters. Distribution of POC was not influenced by water masses. The POC was not significantly correlated with chlorophylla.     

全新世年代框架约束下的东北地区土壤有机碳储库时空格局

土壤有机碳储库是全球碳循环的重要单元, 明确土壤有机碳储库的时空分布及其与气候的关系是有效发挥土壤碳封存作用的前提。本研究以东北地区半湿润-半干旱气候梯度带22个全新世实测土壤剖面为对象, 在AMS¹⁴C、OSL年代约束下, 以千年窗口碳密度为框架建立区域全新世土壤有机碳密度的时空分布模式, 从剖面序列和区域尺度分析全新世气候变化对土壤有机碳密度时空分布的影响。结果显示, 东北地区土壤有机碳密度自全新世以来明显增加, 12~9ka、9~6ka、6~3ka和3~0ka时段累积的土壤有机碳密度分别为2.21kg/m²、4.28kg/m²、6.92kg/m²和9.83kg/m²; 在空间上, 全新世土壤有机碳密度整体上自西南向东北呈增加趋势, 东北部高值区为35~50kg/m², 西部低值区为4~9kg/m²。无论在空间分布还是时间分布上, 东北地区全新世土壤有机碳密度均受气候要素(尤其湿度)控制。这表明, 全新世生物生产力较为稳定, 当气候偏冷湿时有利于土壤有机碳的积累, 这也意味着未来气候变暖不利于区域土壤有机碳的积累封存。

大兴安岭秋季冻结期土壤水热变化对多年冻土泥炭地可溶性有机碳的影响北大核心CSCD

土壤温度和含水量是影响可溶性有机碳(DOC)变化的重要因素。然而,多年冻土泥炭地土壤DOC变化对秋季冻结期土壤水热变化的响应尚不明确。本研究选取大兴安岭3种多年冻土泥炭地[小叶章泥炭地(CP)、兴安落叶松-泥炭藓泥炭地(LP)、白毛羊胡子苔草泥炭地(EP)]作为研究对象,开展野外原位试验探究秋季冻结期土壤水热变化对多年冻土泥炭地土壤DOC变化的影响。结果表明:秋季冻结期土壤DOC含量表现为EP>CP>LP,平均含量分别为83.99、45.75和43.13mg·L^(-1)。在秋季冻结前期3种类型多年冻土泥炭地土壤DOC含量均呈波动下降趋势,中、后期CP,LP土壤DOC变化较平缓。在秋季冻结前期,CP整体土壤DOC含量随浅层土壤温度的降低而减少;在后期CP浅层和整体土壤DOC含量随浅层土壤含水量的增加而增加。在秋季冻结中期,LP浅层土壤温度升高和含水量的减少,降低了土壤DOC含量;LP整体土壤DOC的变化随着浅层温度的升高逐渐降低。在秋季冻结后期,EP深层和整体土壤DOC含量随深层含水量增加而增加。在整个秋季冻结期,LP浅层土壤DOC主要受地表温度驱动,深层土壤DOC则主要受深层含水量的影响;整体土壤DOC则受地表温度影响较大。研究表明秋季冻结期多年冻土泥炭地土壤水热变化驱动土壤DOC含量的变化。研究结果为多年冻土区碳循环和“双碳”背景下的碳排放研究提供基础科学数据。     

Abundance,distribution, and fluxes of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in four small sub-tropical rivers of the Tampa Bay Estuary (Florida,USA)

The delivery of organic carbon (C) from rivers to the coastal ocean via estuaries is recognized as an important component of the global C budget however, smaller river systems are often overlooked and modern flux estimates are not very different from historical estimates. Here, the seasonal (wet vs. dry) concentration and fluxes of dissolved organic C (DOC) were measured in five small sub-tropical rivers that drain into the Tampa Bay (FL, USA) estuary. DOC distributions were highly variable among riverine, mesohaline, and marine end-member samples in all river catchments and no significant differences were observed among or between DOC concentrations with respect to river catchment, season, or year of sampling. In general, DOC mixed non-conservatively during the wet seasons, and conservatively during the dry seasons, with the estuarine reaches of each river serving as a sink of DOC. Fluxes were strongly tied to discharge irrespective of season, and the estuaries removed 15–65% of DOC prior to export to coastal Bay and Gulf of Mexico waters. DOC concentrations were similar to others reported for low-elevation sub-tropical rivers, and a combination of elevation, residence time, and climate appear to control the abundance and variability of DOC in sub-tropical vs. tropical river systems. The characterization of DOC in small, sub-tropical rivers, which share characteristics with both their temperate and tropical counterparts, is critical for quantitatively constraining the importance of these systems in local-to-regional scale ocean C budgets. In addition to geomorphic properties, the role of past, present, and future land cover and other environmental change in small coastal rivers also exerts control on the quantity and flux of DOC in these systems.

浙江温州山地丘陵区土壤碳储量研究

基于温州市山地丘陵区开展的多目标地球化学调查获得的深、表层土壤有机碳和全碳数据,采用直线模型法计算了研究区表层(0~0.2 m)、中层(0~1.0 m)和深层(0~2 m)土壤无机碳的单位储量及密度;采用指数模型法计算了研究区表层(0~0.2 m)、中层(0~1.0 m)和深层(0~2 m)土壤有机碳的单位储量及密度。利用这些数据分别编制了表层、中层、深层无机碳和有机碳的碳密度图,分析了无机碳、有机碳的分布范围和特点以及它们在不同土壤类型中的分布特征。结果表明研究区单位土壤无机碳平均储量为2881.333t,平均密度为0.720 kg/m^2,单位土壤有机碳平均储量为43128.667t,平均密度为10.782 kg/m^2;有机碳和无机碳在表层、中层和深层土壤中含量分布趋势一致;在不同土壤类型中含量分布趋势也一致,均为滨海岩土中最高,粗骨土中最低。     

近30年黔西喀斯特区典型县域农田土壤有机碳动态研究——以贵州普定县为例

文章选取贵州省普定县作为黔西喀斯特区的典型县域,依据1980年第二次土壤普查数据和2011年实测土壤数据,运用土壤类型法,计算该县域近30年（1980-2011年）农田表层（0～20 cm）土壤有机碳（SOC）储量和密度的变化,并借助逐步回归分析,对该县域近30年农田表层SOC动因进行分析,结果表明:（1）普定县近30年来农田0～20 cm表土有机碳库总体表现为基本持平且略有上升的趋势,增幅为0.95%,年均变化量15.31 kg C·hm-2·a-1;（2）不同类型农田土壤的表层有机碳储量和密度变化较大,其中水稻土固碳幅度最大,为28.95%,而山地灌丛草甸土的丢碳最为严重,降幅达70.22%;（3）农田表层SOC密度年均变化量在空间分布上总体表现为县城中部、南部和三岔河及夜郎湖地区呈增加趋势,而在县城以西、以东及斗篷山大部分区域则为下降态势,这主要受土壤类型空间分布差异所致;（4）影响普定县农田表层SOC变化的主要因素有SOC密度初始值（1980年）、C/N、砾石体积比和速效K密度等,其中SOC密度年均变化量与SOC密度初始值和砾石体积比呈负相关,与C/N和速效K密度呈正相关。总的来看,近30年的人为活动对普定县农田表土有机碳总库存未产生负面影响。

断层与幔源二氧化碳气藏的形成和分布——以渤海湾盆地济阳坳陷为例

幔源CO_2气的形成和分布与不同级别断层早白垩世以来的活动密切相关。郯庐断裂带是研究区最主要的成气断层,拆离断层和变换断层这些地壳断层是次要的成气断层,二者于早白垩世143Ma、124Ma、新生代~43Ma、~24Ma和~8Ma的走滑或伸展活动,以及与之准同时的新生代碱性玄武岩浆活动,控制了幔源CO_2气的分散和聚集。它们与基底断裂、盖层断裂共同组成运移通道,其中拆离滑脱处的低速带和盖层断裂中的顺层断层是重要的水平运移通道。早白垩世古太平洋板块俯冲脱水脱气,产生的幔源CO_2气沿着郯庐断裂带向上分散聚集;新生代以来受控于太平洋板块俯冲方向和速度的改变以及印欧板块碰撞的远程效应,形成幔源CO_2气。与此同时郯庐断裂带切割深度亦逐渐加大,~43Ma碱性岩浆活动亦开始形成幔源CO_2气并主要位于断裂带,24Ma和8Ma(5Ma)为新近纪碱性岩浆活动脱气两个主要形成时期。郯庐断裂带的活动使地幔脱气形成的CO_2沿断层走向向上运移,并在作为重要横向运移通道的拆离断层拆离滑脱处,与因岩浆脱气形成的CO_2汇合,再通过陡倾斜、缓倾斜基底断层、盖层断层的接力传递在浅部聚集成藏。预测郯庐断裂带附近是无机成因油气重要的聚集分布区带。
