水分和氮素供应对菠菜硝酸盐累积和钾素吸收的影响

研究了水分和氮素供应对露地秋菠菜的硝酸盐累积和钾、氮吸收的影响。结果表明：与传统的水氮管理措施相比，采用水分平衡法和氮素专家系统进行的水氮供应并没有造成作物减产，但对钾、氮元素的吸收却有明显的影响，同氮素吸收相比，作物对钾素的吸收数量更高；并且作物对钾、氮的吸收比例随氮素供应水平的增加而降低，试验还动态监测了菠菜最新展开叶的叶柄汁液中的硝酸盐和K^ 浓度在一天内的变化情况。结果表明，不同水氮处理的菠菜叶柄汁液的硝酸盐浓度在白天均没有发生显著变化；叶柄汁液中的K^ 浓度和NO3^-／K^ 的浓度比在白天受氮素供应水平的影响很大，供氮量高，K^ 浓度和NO3^-／K^ 浓度比的变化也大，但受灌水量影响不大。图3表2参17。     

粪斑对结缕草放牧草地根系层土壤氮素的影响

研究了结缕草放牧草地根系层土壤氮素的季节性变化特征．结果表明：结缕草放牧草地根系层土壤的全氮量和C／N比值的变化与草地土壤总的肥力水平有关，同时也受到草地放牧的强度和历史的影响；但无机态氮(硝态氮和铵态氮)却较少受到这些因素的影响；铵态氮在根系层土壤的无机态氮总量中占优势．在所研究的放牧草地上，放牧牛在前一年排泄的粪斑对下一个生长季根系层土壤氮素水平的影响很小，因此，由粪斑引起的结缕草放牧草地根系层土壤氮素的空间异质性持续时间一般可能不会超过两个生长季．表1参10

配施的有机无机肥料氮在红壤性水稻土中的残留特征

（１５）Ｎ追踪结果显示，熟化上（Ａ）和低肥力土（Ｃ）有机、无机肥料配施的氮的残留特征均为随配施有机成分和土壤肥力水平的变化而变化．肥力制约残留水平，肥料氮总平衡影响残留率一利用率一损失率的关系；配施有机肥是造成氮残留差异的基本因素，相关分析表明，总残留主体为有机肥氮，残留率随有机肥Ｃ／Ｎ和木质素含量的增减而增减；影响无机肥氮残留的相关因素较复杂．有机氮残留量占总残留量的百分数与无视氮残留量占总残留量的百分数之比，在Ａ，Ｃ两种土壤中约为２．肥力对氮残留作用的实质是，肥料氮在低肥力土中具固持优势，而在熟化土中具矿化利用优势．肥力因素对无机氮残留的影响更显著．根据配施组合中有机成分Ｃ／Ｎ－木质素含量与氮残留／平衡特征的关系．将不同配施组合划分为三大类型。

探讨了云南元谋干热河谷区土壤侵蚀对土壤肥力性质的影响．研究表明，土壤侵蚀使土壤中全氮、全磷、全钾以及碱解氮、速效磷、速效钾等养分淋失；同时，有机质含量减少，土壤有机无机复合量降低，松结态腐殖质减少．Ａ／Ｃ值下降；土壤中的过氧化氢酶、蔗糖酶、脲酶等活性也因侵蚀而降低．土壤侵蚀越强烈，土壤肥力退化愈严重．     

不同施氮水平条件下烤烟对氮素的利用研究

大田中设置盆栽试验，采用１５Ｎ示踪法对不同施氮水平条件下的烤烟的氮素吸收、肥料氮素的利用和土壤ＡＮ值进行研究．试验结果表明，烤烟全生育期吸收的氮素主要来自于土壤可利用性氮．随着氮肥用量的增加，烤烟对肥料氮的吸收量增加，对土壤氮的吸收量减少，土壤对肥料氮素的固定和氮肥损失量增加．ＡＮ值有随氮素用量的增加而逐渐减小的趋势，但以处理４的（６７．５ｋｇ氮素／ｈｍ２）最小．肥料中的氮素利用率以处理４最高，达到５２．３％。     

不同形态氮输入对湿地生态系统碳循环影响的研究进展

人类活动导致湿地生态系统氮负荷明显增加,引起生态系统碳循环过程发生诸多变化。外源氮输入对湿地生态系统土壤碳库稳定性的影响已成为当今国际研究的前沿问题之一。文章综述了不同形态氮素对湿地植物固碳潜势、土壤自养与异养呼吸速率的影响、土壤甲烷排放及不同形态氮与全球变暖对土壤有机碳及其组分矿化速率的交互作用的研究进展。研究表明,(1)植物对不同形态氮素的选择性吸收,会影响植物叶片的光合速率,改变植物的固碳潜势,影响植物根系的自养呼吸速率;同时,会影响凋落物归还量,改变植物对土壤的有机碳输入;此外,还可能影响凋落物的质量(如C/N),改变凋落物的分解速率,影响土壤异养呼吸速率。(2)各种形态氮输入对土壤p H产生不同的影响,改变土壤微生物及酶活性,影响有机碳的分解及土壤异养呼吸速率。(3)土壤有机碳组分对各种形态氮素的不同响应,也会改变土壤有机碳的矿化速率。(4)植物对不同形态氮素的选择性吸收,及各种形态氮输入对土壤p H产生的不同影响,会影响土壤中可利用C、N源的供应,改变土壤的酸碱环境及氧化还原电位,影响土壤CH4排放。(5)大气氮沉降与全球变暖同时影响土壤碳循环过程,但不同形态氮素与全球变暖对湿地土壤碳循环过程的交互作用研究仍较少见。迄今为止,氮沉降对湿地土壤碳库稳定性的影响效应仍存在很大的不确定性,仅有少量研究区分氮素形态对土壤碳库稳定性的影响,而关于湿地生态系统的研究鲜有报道。今后应着重区分不同形态氮素对湿地土壤碳库稳定性的影响机理研究,以便深入了解氮沉降与湿地土壤碳库稳定性之间的关系。     

氮素形态对泥炭沼泽土壤有机碳矿化的影响

大气氮沉降是全球变化的主要因素之一。硝态氮、氨态氮是大气氮沉降的两种主要氮素形态,且两者在大气氮沉降中的比例具有较大的空间变异性。目前,多数研究侧重于探讨氮输入量与土壤碳循环过程之间的关系,很少有研究关注不同氮素形态对沼泽湿地土壤有机碳矿化的影响。以东北地区多年冻土区及季节冻土区泥炭沼泽为例,利用室内模拟实验,在100%土壤最大持水量条件下,将土样于15℃好氧培养60 d,研究不同形态氮输入对泥炭沼泽土壤有机碳矿化的影响。结果表明,多年冻土区和季节冻土区泥炭沼泽0~30 cm深度的土壤有机碳贮量分别为17.60、13.06 kg·m-2。多年冻土区泥炭沼泽土壤有机碳的累积矿化量显著大于季节冻土区(P0.001)。同一泥炭沼泽中,表土(0~15 cm)有机碳累积矿化量显著大于下层(15~30 cm;P0.001)。氨态氮抑制土壤有机碳矿化,使多年冻土区泥炭沼泽土壤有机碳累积矿化量下降12.08%~14.90%,季节冻土区下降7.28%~12.57%,而硝态氮及硝酸氨对土壤有机碳矿化无显著影响。此外,氮素形态、土壤深度及泥炭沼泽类型对土壤有机碳矿化有显著的交互作用(P0.05)。因此,区分不同氮素形态对土壤碳排放的影响是非常有必要,有利于深入了解大气氮沉降对泥炭沼泽土壤碳库稳定性的影响。     

水稻施用耐氨固氮菌的效应研究

定位试验表明：施用耐氨固氮菌能促进水稻根系对氮素的吸收，显著增加水稻产量．耐氨固氮菌具有固氮能力，但按现行的施用量则固氮水平不足３０ｋｇ／ｈｍ２．在施氮水平较高的情况下。施用耐氨固氮菌能增加土壤有机质、全氮和碱解氮含量．     

葡萄糖对东北黑土有机氮矿化的调控作用

采用Stanford和Smith的间歇淋洗好气矿化培养法研究了添加外源底物对东北黑土有机氮矿化进程和矿化速率的影响.结果表明,葡萄糖能够降低土壤有机氮的矿化进程和矿化速率,促进土壤有机氮的固定.葡萄糖与氮肥配施处理也表现出对土壤有机氮的截获作用.葡萄糖对土壤有机氮的矿化具有调控作用,这对于提高农田土壤氮素利用率、减少氮素损失具有重要意义.     

包膜控释和常用氮肥氮素淋溶特征及其对土水质量的影响

大量施用氮素化肥所引起的氮素损失和环境污染正日益受到重视。通过土柱模拟氮素养分的淋洗试验,探讨包膜控释氮肥和常用氮肥的氮素淋失特点及其对土壤和地下水质量的影响。研究结果表明,不同氮肥施入土壤后氮素的淋失率有着显著的差异,其中硝酸钾中氮素淋失率最高,其次为尿素,硫酸铵和碳铵的氮素淋失量明显较小。然而控释氮肥因其控制释放的特点,在氮素释放的高峰期,其模拟淋失量较高,但如果在田间条件下此释放高峰期与作物吸肥高峰期相吻合,则会显著地降低其淋失率。除尿素外,被淋失的氮素均以硝态氮为主,尿素则以酰胺分子态被淋溶。大量速效化肥的施入会形成土壤中的肥料"微域点",引起交换性Ca2+、Mg2+离子的淋失,从长远来看可引起土壤结构的破坏,而施用控释肥则很少形成这种"微域点",有利于土壤结构和肥力的维持。不同氮肥处理淋洗后对土壤pH值和有效氮含量变化的影响差异较大,其中以控释肥对土壤pH值变化的影响较小。大多数氮肥处理在淋洗后,土壤中各层速效氮含量较淋洗前有所降低,然而两种控释氮肥处理的土壤表层却能持续保持较高的有效氮含量。     

硫酸铵施用量和温度对红壤稻田土硝化作用及微生物特性的影响

以红壤稻田土为供试土壤,设置不同硫酸铵(简称硫铵)施用量,分别在15、25、35℃条件下培养,研究短期内土壤硝化作用、微生物生物量和微生物功能多样性的变化。结果表明,在相同硫铵施用量下,不同温度处理土壤NH4+含量差异不显著;温度变化对于对照和常规硫铵用量(折纯N 120 mg·kg-1)处理土壤NO3-含量有显著影响,但对中、高量(折纯N 600和1 200 mg·kg-1)处理无显著影响。对照和常规硫铵用量处理土壤硝化速率均随温度升高而显著增加;中、高量硫铵处理土壤硝化速率普遍较低,且不同温度之间差异不显著;相同温度条件下,硝化速率随硫铵施用量的升高而降低。中、髙量硫铵处理对土壤微生物生物量碳有显著影响,且土壤微生物生物量碳随硫铵施用量的增加而显著降低;相同硫铵施用量下,不同温度处理土壤微生物生物量碳由高到低大致为25、15和35℃。BIOLOG分析显示,中、高量硫铵处理平均吸光值和多样性指数均较低,各处理中以25℃时对照处理的平均吸光值和Shannon、Simpson、McIntosh指数最大,其次为25℃时常规硫铵用量处理。过量施用硫铵有可能造成土壤生物结构和功能衰变。

Respiration and excretion by oceanic salps

Rates of oxygen consumption and ammonium nitrogen excretion were measured on the solitary and/or aggregate generations of ten species of oceanic salps collected by SCUBA divers during cruises in the Atlantic Ocean (1982–1985). Species that were visibly more active had higher metabolic rates than did less active species. Rates were 1.5 to 2 times lower and O:N ratios were lower when salps were held before incubation than when incubation began at the time of collection. Respiration rate showed a better relationship to length than to weight, suggesting that metabolic activity may be connected mainly with swimming. O:N ratios were between 13 and 28 for most species and generations, but higher and more variable in Pegea spp. Exretion of urea was low or undetectable. Rates of metabolic demand (turnover) ranged from 9.7 to 99% body carbon d^-1 and 6.4 to 55.6% body nitrogen d^-1.Contribution No. 5988 from the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution and No. 412 from the Allan Hancock Foundation     

Niche complementarity due to plasticity in resource use: plant partitioning of chemical N forms

Niche complementarity, in which coexisting species use different forms of a resource, has been widely invoked to explain some of the most debated patterns in ecology, including maintenance of diversity and relationships between diversity and ecosystem function. However, classical models assume resource specialization in the form of distinct niches, which does not obviously apply to the broadly overlapping resource use in plant communities. Here we utilize an experimental framework based on competition theory to test whether plants partition resources via classical niche differentiation or via plasticity in resource use. We explore two alternatives: niche preemption, in which individuals respond to a superior competitor by switching to an alternative, less-used resource, and dominant plasticity, in which superior competitors exhibit high resource use plasticity and shift resource use depending on the competitive environment. We determined competitive ability by measuring growth responses with and without neighbors over a growing season and then used 15N tracer techniques to measure uptake of different nitrogen (N) forms in a field setting. We show that four alpine plant species of differing competitive abilities have statistically indistinguishable uptake patterns (nitrate > ammonium > glycine) in their fundamental niche (without competitors) but differ in whether they shift these uptake patterns in their realized niche (with competitors). Competitively superior species increased their uptake of the most available N form, ammonium, when in competition with the rarer, competitively inferior species. In contrast, the competitively inferior species did not alter its N uptake pattern in competition. The existence of plasticity in resource use among the dominant species provides a mechanism that helps to explain the manner by which plant species with broadly overlapping resource use might coexist.     

Effect of bryozoan colonization on inorganic nitrogen acquisition by the kelps Agarum fimbriatum and Macrocystis integrifolia

The effect of bryozoan colonization on inorganic nitrogen acquisition by Agarum fimbriatum Harv. and Macrocystis integrifolia Bory., collected from the west coast of Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada, was examined in laboratory experiments during June and July 1992. Pieces of kelp blades that were completely covered on one side by the bryozoans Lichenopora novae-zelandiae Busk or Membranipora membranacea, L., or uncolonized (clean treatment), were used to estimate the rate at which nitrate and ammonium were removed from the surrounding seawater. In addition, the rate of ammonium excretion by bryozoans isolated from their associated kelp was measured and also estimated from the results of the uptake experiments. Values obtained were used to estimate the contribution of ammonium excreted by bryozoans to the total amount of inorganic nitrogen available to the associated kelp. Both bryozoan species reduced the ability of the associated kelp to remove nitrate and ammonium from seawater but provided a source of ammonium to the kelp through excretion. The nitrogen status of colonized and clean kelp disks was determined from the ratio of total particulate carbon to total particulate nitrogen (C:N ratio). The C:N ratios for A. fimbriatum colonized with either L. novae-zelandiae or M. membranacea were similar (C:N=12 to 14), and differences between colonized and clean treatments were not significant. For A. fimbriatum, therefore, the C:N ratio indicates that this species was not nitrogen limited at the time of the present study. In contrast, both colonized and clean disks of M. integrifolia were nitrogen limited, but colonized disks (C:N=19) were significantly less limited by nitrogen than clean disks (C:N=29). Results are discussed in relation to the different environments inhabited by both kelp species and are consistent with the hypothesis that ammonium excreted by bryozoans was an important source of inorganic nitrogen to M. integrifolia, but not to A. fimbriatum, at the time of the study.     

Nitrogen limitation of net primary productivity in terrestrial ecosystems is globally distributed

Our meta-analysis of 126 nitrogen addition experiments evaluated nitrogen (N) limitation of net primary production (NPP) in terrestrial ecosystems. We tested the hypothesis that N limitation is widespread among biomes and influenced by geography and climate. We used the response ratio (R approximately equal ANPP(N)/ANPP(ctrl)) of aboveground plant growth in fertilized to control plots and found that most ecosystems are nitrogen limited with an average 29% growth response to nitrogen (i.e., R = 1.29). The response ratio was significant within temperate forests (R = 1.19), tropical forests (R = 1.60), temperate grasslands (R = 1.53), tropical grasslands (R = 1.26), wetlands (R = 1.16), and tundra (R = 1.35), but not deserts. Eight tropical forest studies had been conducted on very young volcanic soils in Hawaii, and this subgroup was strongly N limited (R = 2.13), which resulted in a negative correlation between forest R and latitude. The degree of N limitation in the remainder of the tropical forest studies (R = 1.20) was comparable to that of temperate forests, and when the young Hawaiian subgroup was excluded, forest R did not vary with latitude. Grassland response increased with latitude, but was independent of temperature and precipitation. These results suggest that the global N and C cycles interact strongly and that geography can mediate ecosystem response to N within certain biome types.     

施氮与凋落物去除影响下中亚热带阔叶林土壤氮素矿化潜势和硝化潜势研究

氮沉降影响土壤氮循环,而凋落物是土壤有机氮的主要来源,因此,为了探讨氮沉降和凋落物是否去除作用下,亚热带森林土壤潜在的氮素矿化与硝化作用,选择已进行8年模拟氮沉降试验的亚热带罗浮栲(Castanopsis fabri)常绿阔叶林土壤为研究对象,野外样地氮添加设置3个水平:对照(CK,0 kg·hm^?2·a^?1)、低氮(LN,75 kg·hm^?2·a^?1)、高氮(HN,150 kg·hm^?2·a^?1),两种凋落物管理方式(保留凋落物,L和去除凋落物,R),土壤采样后,通过室内间歇淋洗好气培养法,研究土壤氮素矿化潜势差异,以及不同底物条件下(铵态氮水平:N 0,100、150、200 mg·kg^?1)土壤硝化潜势的差异。结果表明:土壤氮素快速矿化主要在培养前7 d,矿化累积量(Nt)为102.81—153.71 mg·kg^?1,矿化潜势(N0)范围为193.84—289.80 mg·kg^?1,N0依次为:保留凋落物低氮(LN-L)>保留凋落物对照(CK-L)>去除凋落物低氮(LN-R)>去除凋落物对照(CK-R)>去除凋落物高氮(HN-R)>保留凋落物高氮(HN-L);两种凋落物处理方式下,LN水平土壤的Nt与N0均高于CK、HN。保留凋落物情况下,有较高的土壤硝化潜势;在无添加硝化底物(铵态氮水平为N 0 mg·kg^?1)的条件下,野外氮添加水平高的土壤硝化潜势也高;而在添加不同硝化底物(铵态氮)的条件下,土壤硝化潜势并未随硝化底物水平的增加而增加,且硝化底物水平为N 100 mg·kg^?1时硝化潜势最大。研究表明,虽然保留凋落物可以增加土壤氮矿化潜势,而氮沉降则影响氮矿化潜势。当研究土壤硝化潜势时,应当根据土壤类型等因素选择合适的硝化底物(铵态氮)添加量。     

Effects of nitrogen addition on the growth of the salt marsh grassElymus athericus

Effects of nitrogen addition on the growth of the salt marsh grassElymus athericus were studied under greenhouse conditions. The addition of inorganic nitrogen (in the form of nitrate or ammonium and ranging from 0–24 g N/m²) stimulated the growth ofElymus athericus at the highest addition. Addition of nitrogen led to an increase of the soil nitrate concentrations both in the nitrate and ammonium treated soil in the first period of the experiment, whereas no differences were present at the end of the experiment. Ammonium in the ammonium treatments was transformed to nitrate within 15 days. In another experiment the values of the stable isotope nitrogen-15—expressed as δ¹⁵N-in nitrogen compounds used as fertilizer, in salt marsh soil and ofElymus athericus were measured. The δ¹⁵N of the N-compounds added (between ?3.2 and +2.6‰) were lower than the soil (ca.+10‰) and plants (ca.+8‰). During growth in water culture the δ¹⁵N of the leaves, stems and roots ofElymus athericus decreased from +9‰ to ?1‰. The latter value was close to the °¹⁵N of the N-compounds used in the water solution. Addition of N-compounds in soil culture, however, did not lead to such a decrease of the °¹⁵N ofElymus athericus. The difference in δ¹⁵N between soil nitrogen and the N-compounds added may be too small to be used successfully in ecological studies of nitrogen fluxes in the salt marsh environment.     

Nitrogen uptake and growth of the germlings and mature thalli of Fucus distichus

Fucus distichus L. was collected near Vancouver, Canada, in late fall and early winter, 1981. The effects of the forms of nitrogen (nitrate, ammonium or urea) and periodic exposure to air on growth, rhizoid development and nitrogen uptake in germlings was investigated. Gamete release, fertilization, germination and germling growth had no requirement for a specific form of nitrogen. Periodic exposure to air increased secondary rhizoid development twofold. Nitrate and ammonium uptake rates of the germlings were higher than for the mature thalli (20 to 40 times for nitrate and 8 times for ammonium), while the halfsaturation constant (K _s) values for nitrate were similar (1 to 5 M). The germlings showed saturable uptake kinetics but the mature thalli did not. When germlings were exposed to air it caused a 70% decrease in nitrate uptake, but not change in ammonium uptake. Ammonium uptake in the mature thalli was proportional to the ambient ammonium concentration. Nitrate uptake in the mature thalli appeared to follow saturation kinetics at low nitrate concentrations, but showed a non-saturable component at concentrations greater than 10 M. Presence of ammonium inhibited nitrate uptake by the mature plants but not by the germlings.
