重大生态工程规划设计的理论探讨

生态问题已成为阻碍我国经济社会可持续发展的主要屏障,解决生态问题的主要途径是实施生态治理工程。我国开展的诸多生态治理工程以退耕还林还草工程最为典型,由于相关理论研究长期滞后于生产实践需求导致该工程在推进过程中“边实施、边调整、边总结”。论文剖析了退耕还林还草工程不同阶段出现的问题以及国家采取的相应对策。通过理论分析指出生态问题是经济社会系统内部矛盾的外在表现,生态治理工程既要解决生态退化及危害,又要解决诱发生态问题的经济社会内部矛盾;生态工程设计需要生态学、经济学、社会学等相关学科的理论支撑。重大生态工程设计之初需要考虑技术储备、工程成本、成果稳定性（经济社会系统内部矛盾解决程度）、推广性、综合效益、政策及法律法规搭配等问题以达到“内外兼治”的效果,避免因“边实施、边调整、边总结”带来的工程风险和浪费,最终保障工程目标的实现。     

西藏退化高寒草原土壤团聚体有机碳的变化特征

为进一步了解高寒草原土壤碳动态变化特点与变化过程,采用湿筛法对藏北高原未退化、轻度退化和严重退化高寒草原表层（0~10 cm）、亚表层（>10~20 cm）不同粒级w（SAOC）（SAOC为土壤团聚体有机碳）进行研究.结果表明,与未退化草地相比,不同程度退化草地w（SAOC）均呈下降趋势,但严重退化草地表层、亚表层中w（SAOC）、>0.25 mm粒级w（SAOC）、 < 0.25 mm粒级w（SAOC）降幅均显著低于轻度退化草地;不同程度退化草地表层、亚表层中>0.25、 < 0.25 mm粒级w（SAOC）在总体上趋于下降,且亚表层的降幅明显高于表层的降幅,但退化草地亚表层中w（SAOC）仍高于表层（未退化草地、轻度和严重退化草地亚表层较表层分别增加51.84%、31.34%、6.83%）,w（SAOC）的土层差异随草地退化加剧而大幅缩小;轻度、严重退化草地不同粒级w（SAOC）的土层分布特征仍与未退化草地一致,其表层、亚表层中>0.25 mm粒级w（SAOC）均明显较高;与未退化草地相同,退化草地表层、亚表层w（SAOC）贡献率亦均呈|2~0.25 mm| > | < 0.25~0.053 mm| > | > 2 mm| > | < 0.053 mm|粒级;退化草地环境对团聚体与w（SAOC）,以及w（SOC）（SOC为土壤有机碳）与w（SAOC）间的关系具有重要影响.研究显示,高原冷干环境下不同粒级SAOC及其变化受草地退化程度、土层深度等的深刻影响,需要从影响土壤有机碳形成与转化的土壤机制等方面进行深入研究.      

Managed grassland alters soil N dynamics and N2O emissions in temperate steppe

Reclamation of degraded grasslands as managed grasslands has been increasingly accelerated in recent years in China. Land use change affects soil nitrogen(N) dynamics and nitrous oxide(N_2O) emissions. However, it remains unclear how large-scale grassland reclamation will impact the grassland ecosystem as a whole. Here, we investigated the effects of the conversion from native to managed grasslands on soil N dynamics and N_2O emissions by field experiments in Hulunber in northern China. Soil(0–10 cm), nitrate(NO_3~-),ammonium(NH_4~+), and microbial N were measured in plots in a temperate steppe(Leymus chinensis grassland) and two managed grasslands(Medicago sativa and Bromus inermis grasslands) in 2011 and 2012. The results showed conversion of L. chinensis grassland to M.sativa or B. inermis grasslands decreased concentrations of NO_3~–-N, but did not change NH_4~–N . Soil microbial N was slightly decreased by the conversion of L. chinensis grassland to M.sativa, but increased by the conversion to B. inermis. The conversion of L. chinensis grassland to M. sativa(i.e., a legume grass) increased N_2O emissions by 26.2%, while the conversion to the B. inermis(i.e., a non-legume grass) reduced N_2O emissions by 33.1%. The conversion from native to managed grasslands caused large created variations in soil NO?3~-+–N and NH_4~–N concentrations. Net N mineralization rates did not change significantly in growing season or vegetation type, but to net nitrification rate. These results provide evidence on how reclamation may impact the grassland ecosystem in terms of N dynamics and N_2O emissions.     

中蒙边境典型草原可燃物热解动力学研究

以中蒙边境(包括东乌旗、二连浩特市、新巴尔虎右旗)的草原可燃物为研究对象,利用STA 6000热重分析仪,采用热重分析法以5 ml/min,10 ml/min,20 ml/min,30 ml/min的氧气为载气,在空气气氛下,升温速率分别为40℃/min,60℃/min,80℃/min时对三个地区草原可燃物的热失重行为进行研究。利用TG-DTG曲线分析典型草原可燃物的热解特性,运用Coats-Redfern积分法和Flynn-Wall-Ozawa法得出在不同氧气浓度下的热解活化能和指前因子并求得相应参数。中蒙边境三个地区草原可燃物的热解过程分为三个阶段:水分析出阶段、快速热解阶段和碳化阶段。其中快速热解阶段的温度在270℃~450℃之间,此阶段中升温速率越快,温度滞后现象越明显;通氧速率越快,温度超前现象越明显。Flynn-Wall-Ozawa法在进行参数计算过程具有更小误差,所以较Coats-Redfern积分法更适合本次研究。热解过程及动力学参数分析表明,三个地区具有相同的热分解过程,引发火灾危险程度为:新巴尔虎右旗<东乌旗<二连浩特,因此,二连浩特市的草原可燃物较另外两地区更易燃烧,应加强草原火灾的预防和管理。     

高原牧区自然生态价值的测算——以四川省甘孜藏族自治州新龙县为例

自然生态系统提供人类需要的各种服务,有广泛的使用价值,其中生态服务功能,即无形资产的价值最为重要。本文对新龙县环境的特殊性进行了分析,根据影响生态价值的相关因素,计算了新龙县天然林和天然草地的生态服务功能平均价值,并进一步计算出新龙县1999~2003年受到保护和管理的天然林和天然草地的生态服务功能价值。结果显示,新龙县天然林的生态服务功能平均价值为11837元/hm2,草地为7915元/hm2,1999~2003年,新龙县生态服务功能价值增加值占调整后GDP的比重高达65%~85%。但这部分价值长期未得到统计和合理的补偿,为实现流域环境和经济的可持续发展,建议建立国家、地方、区域、行业多层次的补偿系统,同时逐步完善市场机制。     

草地不同利用方式对高寒草甸群落物种多样性和生物量的影响

通过对新疆那拉提高寒草甸天然草地进行围栏(3、5、30 a)和自由放牧处理,探讨草地不同利用方式对草地植物多样性和生物量的影响。结果表明,在自由放牧制度下,由于干扰过于剧烈,草地已呈退化趋势,物种多样性和生物量均较低;在围栏草地中,随着围封年限的增加,群落高度、盖度、地上生物量逐渐增加;地上生物量的变化趋势为放牧草地围栏3 a草地围栏5 a草地围栏30 a草地。     

松嫩平原盐碱土水分扩散率研究

对盐碱地土壤水盐运动的定量描述是控制区域土壤次生盐碱化的基础，其中的土壤水分扩散率是研究土壤水盐运动的重要参数之一。文章通过非稳定流水平土柱法对实验区扰动的盐碱地土壤水分扩散率进行了测定，并将实验结果拟合为经验公式，然后将测定的土壤水分扩散率应用于水平入渗方程，用数值计算软件Mathcad6.0对土柱水分水平入渗进行了数值模拟，将实测结果和方程模拟的土壤水分分布状况进行了对比。结果表明本研究得出的土壤水分扩散率的经验方程误差较小。最后讨论了影响土壤水分扩散的土壤质地因素及土壤水分扩散率和含水率之间的单值函数关系。     

中国松嫩草原羊草植硅体对全球变暖和氮沉降模拟的响应研究

在松嫩草原应用红外线增温和人工施氮的方法对羊草群落模拟全球变暖和氮沉降,提取羊草中的植硅体,分析探讨植硅体的形态及数量变化规律.羊草中的植硅体可以划分为4个大类和12个亚类,以及较小的植硅体碎片,其中帽型植硅体含量高达70%.尖顶帽型和平顶帽型植硅体与刺帽型植硅体可能有不同的发育机制,并且尖型植硅体对施氮更为敏感;与对照相比,增温处理对羊草植硅体的发育有促进作用(长宽增加0.1～2.6μm),而施氮处理则有一定的抑制作用(长宽减小0.1～1.4μm),增温和施氮交叉作用,则施氮对羊草植硅体发育表现出的抑制作用明显减弱;施氮处理中出现其他处理中未见到的空心棒型(占棒型总量的46%),而且除棒型、帽型、尖型以外的植硅体含量增加到10%,从而推测,对于以羊草为优势植物的松嫩草原,施氮的影响可能要强于增温,如果两者同时作用,增温能在一定程度上缓解施氮的影响.实验中的羊草植硅体对模拟全球变化很敏感,说明植硅体对环境因子的改变很敏感,其作为古环境的代用指标应是可靠的.

The threat of abandonment in socio-ecological landscapes: Farmers’ motivations and perspectives on high nature value grassland conservation

Future sustainability of the conservation management of socio-ecological landscapes is typically reliant on on-going agricultural management. Such management may be threatened by changes in the drivers of management and the fragility of the stakeholder networks that deliver management. This study examined evidence for the risk of abandonment in a series of case study high nature value (HNV) grassland sites. The work found that the motivation of farmers to participate in the conservation management was typically limited and often marginal. Landowners and conservation stakeholders who relied on partner farmers to manage such sites often struggled to recruit and retain their participation, leading to increased turnover among managing farmers and to some sites being under-managed. Primary reasons for difficulty of recruitment and farmer turnover included a lack of candidate farmers in the local landscape, and the marginal and fluctuating economics of grassland management. A trend towards greater financial incentivisation of farmers was evident, which policy-makers responsible for agri-environment schemes should note, and elsewhere some conservation organisations were seen to be bringing grassland management in-house. Farmers’ motivations to participate in conservation management of such systems may continue to weaken and abandonment may therefore become a significant risk to the successful conservation of such systems. Conservation stakeholders need to foster good relations with their farmer-manager partners and not further depress their limited motivations to participate, as well as consider carefully whether farmer stakeholders are being adequately compensated for their efforts.
