汉江与嘉陵江源区黄土的风化成土强度及其在土壤系统分类中的归属

以汉江源区(李家河村)和嘉陵江源区(杨家山村)黄土剖面为研究对象,对其粒度、元素组成、团聚体等进行分析与对比,探究两地土壤成土强度与系统分类归属.结果表明两江源区的土壤风化成土特征级类明显不同:(1)两地土壤团聚体主要分布在0.25～1 mm范围内,但汉江源区(LJH)土壤上部的大团聚体含量R0.25值(83.73％)、平均重量直径MWD值(2.17)和几何平均直径GMD值(1.11)均大于嘉陵江源区(YJS)的土壤(其R0.25值为69.81％,MWD和GMD值分别为1.06、0.47),团聚体稳定性更强,而剖面中下部则相反,土体稳定性弱于后者;(2)嘉陵江源区土壤的风化程度仅达到低等向中等强度过渡阶段,与其相比,汉江源区土壤的钾钠比值和残积指数较高、硅铝铁率和淋溶系数较低,钙、钠等易溶元素风化淋失更强,产生的富铝黏土矿物更多,达到中等风化强度,故后者风化成土强度远大于前者;(3)在土壤系统分类中,汉江源区黄土母质发育的土壤可归为斑纹简育湿润淋溶土,嘉陵江源区土壤可归为普通钙积干润淋溶土.
