土壤微生物残体碳对气候变化响应的研究评述

Review of the Effects of Climate Change on Soil Microbial Necromass Carbon

  • 摘要: 土壤微生物是陆地生态系统碳循环的核心驱动力,其死亡后形成的残体物质,是陆地生态系统有机碳库的关键组分。当前频发的干旱、变暖等一系列气候变化因子可能影响微生物残体碳的转化以及对土壤碳库的贡献度。基于此,本研究系统梳理了土壤微生物残体碳积累对温度升高、干旱、极端降水、低温四类关键气候因子的响应机制与研究进展。结果表明,气候变化因子对微生物残体碳积累和分解过程的调控,主要通过影响微生物代谢活性、植物碳源基质供给及微生物捕食者捕食效率实现。尽管高温和低温逆境下微生物残体碳的积累呈升高趋势,但这四类胁迫因子对残体碳积累的综合影响仍以逆境胁迫效应为主,通过扰动微生物群落组成与代谢活性,抑制残体碳生成和转化,最终导致其对土壤有机碳库的贡献量降低。本文对于土壤微生物残体碳积累响应气候变化因子作用的论述,有助于深化读者对土壤微生物介导的碳循环过程及其残体碳积累机制的认识,也为今后预测全球碳循环动态演变提供相关理论依据。

     

    Abstract: Soil microorganisms serve as the core driving force of the carbon (C) cycle in terrestrial ecosystems, and the necromass formed after their death constitutes a key component of the organic C pool in terrestrial ecosystems. A series of current climate change factors, such as frequent droughts and warming, may affect the transformation of microbial necromass C and its contribution to soil C pools. Based on this, this study systematically reviewed the response mechanisms and research progress of soil microbial necromass C accumulation to four key climate factors: temperature rise, drought, extreme precipitation, and low temperature. The results showed that climate change factors regulated the accumulation and decomposition processes of microbial necromass C mainly by affecting microbial metabolic activity, plant C source substrate supply, and microbial predator predation efficiency. Although the accumulation of microbial necromass C showed an increasing trend under high-temperature and low-temperature stresses, the comprehensive impact of these four stress factors on necromass C accumulation was still dominated by the adverse stress effect. By disturbing the composition and metabolic activities of the microbial community, the generation and transformation of necromass C were inhibited, ultimately leading to a reduction in its contribution to the soil organic C pool. This discussion on the response of soil microbial necromass C accumulation to climate change factors helps to deepen readers' understanding of the C cycle process mediated by soil microorganisms and the accumulation mechanism of their necromass C, and also to provide a relevant theoretical basis for predicting the dynamic evolution of the global C cycle in the future.
