其他摘要 | Accurately obtain farmland soil organic carbon impact factor on a local scale is the
basis of exactly estimating farmland soil organic carbon storage. The research of soil
organic carbon storage and sequestration mechanism is great importance to understand the
potentials and means of agricultural carbon sequestration. In this study, based on the
regional scale in Northwest Arid Area (A case of Pingluo county), soil carbon sequestration
and rate were studied;The distribution characteristics of soil, and aggregates organic
carbon contents were studied by using the physical method of grouping, combined with
using XANES Spectroscopy to measure the distributions and chemical composition
stability characteristics of the main SOC functional groups; soil aggregates physical
protection of organic carbon and chemical stability mechanism were studied, which is to
provide the basis of more accurate estimate the potential of soil carbon sequestration and
carbon sequestration mechanisms. The main results and conclusions were presented as
follows:
1. The spatial variability characteristics of topsoil bulk density:
The results showed that the bulk density of farmland topsoil in Pingluo ranged from
1.079 to 1.612 g·cm -3 , with the mean of 1.355±0.107 g·cm -3 and with the variation
coefficient of 0.080. The topsoil bulk density is a weak variability and decreases gradually
from west to east, but shows the certain north-south zonal distribution pattern in Spatial
variability on county scale. Soil texture and land-use patterns are key factors, which affect
the variability of soil bulk density on county scale. 2. Soil organic carbon storage and sequestration rate:
From 1980 to 2011, soil organic carbon and organic carbon density in Pingluo (SOCD)
were significantly increased. In the last 31 years,organic carbon sequestration of farmland
topsoil increased 455,000 t; the increment of organic carbon per unit area is 6690.38 kg
C·ha -1 , the average rate of SOCD is 215.82 kg C·ha -1 ·yr -1 . Topsoil carbon sequestration
increased area rated 88.24 %, decreased area rated 3.17%, with the relative balance of the
area accounted for 1.69%. In addition to sierozem, the carbon sequestration of other soil
types has increased, while irrigating warped soil, saline soil and aquatic soil had greatly
increased carbon sequestration. In terms of farmland soil factor, total nitrogen is one of the
principal factors influencing the organic carbon content, followed by total phosphorus,
total potassium; In terms of farmland management factors, the amount of root stubble is
one of the major factors chief factors affecting the rate of soil organic carbon change,
followed by nitrogen fertilizer inputs, the amount of retention stubble.
3. The characteristics of soil organic carbon fractions:
The content of total soil organic carbon in different soil types (the weighted mean
value in 100 cm) were as follows: saline soil (5.37±0.17 g/kg) > irrigating warped soil
(4.89±0.40 g/kg) > alluvial soil (4.06±0.55 g/kg). The content of topsoil organic carbon
were as follows: irrigating warped soil (8.49±0.49 g/kg) > saline soil (8.14±0.81 g/kg) >
alluvial soil (6.52±0.65 g/kg).
Under aerobic conditions, the content of heavy fraction organic carbon (HFOC, the
weighted mean value in 100 cm) expressed as follows: irrigating warped soil (5.12±0.65
g/kg) > saline soil (4.37±0.48 g/kg) > alluvial soil (3.29±0.34 g/kg); the content of
mineral-incorporated organic carbon (MOM) expressed as follows: irrigating warped soil
(4.40±0.56 g/kg) > saline soil (4.25±0.44 g/kg) > alluvial soil (3.12±0.14 g/kg); the content
of particulate organic matter (POC) expressed as follows: irrigating warped soil (1.08±
0.44 g/kg) > saline soil (0.98±0.41 g/kg)> alluvial soil (0.64±0.08 g/kg); the content of
light fraction organic carbon (LFOC) expressed as follows: saline soil (0.87±0.18 g/kg) >
alluvial soil (0.46±12 g/kg)> irrigating warped soil (0.37±0.11 g/kg). In paddy fields, it
is the highest content of HFOC and MOM in alluvial soil, followed by saline soil,
irrigating warped soil. It is the highest content of LFOC and POC in irrigating warped soil,
followed by saline soil and alluvial soil. The contents of organic carbon fractions under aerobic conditions were higher than in paddy fields.
The content of soil organic carbon fractions (HFOC, MOM, POC) is highest in topsoil
of all the soil layers, with depth of profiles increasing showed a clear decreasing trend.
POC, MOM, HFOC and total organic carbon content showed a significant positive
correlation (P<0.01), while no significant relationship between LFOC and total organic
carbon content.
4. Distribution of organic carbon and soil aggregates:
1) The content of >0.25 mm water-stable aggregate is most highest in the topsoil with
the percentage of 63.81%, significantly higher than the parent material (36.15%);
aggregate destruction rate in topsoil is lowest with the percentage of 27.71%, while the
parent material layer is 46.28%. The average of irrigating warped soil aggregate
destruction rate is 32.27%, lower than the saline soil (44.36%) and alluvial soil (44.72%),
indicating that aggregate stability of irrigating warped soil is highest. Soil aggregate
stability of upland soil is higher than paddy soil, the content of >0.25 mm water-stable
aggregate in upland soil is 51.25%, which is higher than paddy soil (40.60%); the
aggregate destruction rate of upland soil is 37.60%,significantly lower than paddy soil
(43.30%). The content of >0.25 mm water-stable aggregates and soil organic carbon were
positively correlated, indicating that increasing of soil organic carbon content played an
important role in promoting the formation of aggregates.
2) Soil organic carbon are mainly fixed in the aggregates of >0.25 mm particle size.
The average content of >0.25 mm aggregate organic carbon in different soil types showed
that irrigating warped soil (8.35±0.08 g/kg) > saline soil (8.05±0.12 g/kg) > alluvial soil
(6.92±0.09 g/kg). The average content of >0.25 mm aggregate organic carbon in upland
soil is 8.13±0.08 g/kg, significantly higher than paddy (7.83 ± 0.42 g/kg).
3) The content of soil aggregate organic carbon fractions (HFOC, MOM, POC) fixed
in the aggregates of >0.25 mm particle size. The content of HFOC, MOM and POC in the
different size aggregate is significantly higher in irrigating warped soil and saline soil than
aquatic soil; the content of HFOC and POC in the different size aggregate is slightly higher
in upland soil than the paddy soils.
4) The stable organic carbon (HFOC, MOM) in >0.25 mm aggregate showed
significant positive correlation with aggregate organic carbon(P < 0.01).

With the aggregate particle size increases, in irrigating warped soil, the relative
percentage of organic carbon labile functional groups (carbonyl-C, O-alkyl-C) had
decreased, while the relative percentage of organic carbon stable functional groups
(aromatic-C) had increased. However, in saline soil, the relative percentage of organic
carbon stable functional groups (aromatic-C) had decreased, the relative percentage of
organic carbon labile functional groups (carbonyl-C) had significantly increased.
Compared with the upland soil, paddy field could improve the chemical stability of soil
organic carbon.
