Increased soil carbon (C) gains projected to occur with elevated CO2 (eCO2) might be negated by higher C losses via soil organic matter (SOM) decomposition. The impact of eCO2 on soil C is usually measured as a change in total soil C which inevitably confounds C gains and losses occurring simultaneously. Furthermore, the impacts of eCO2 on C gains and losses may differ for contrasting soil organic substrates due to their distinctive physicochemical and microbiological characteristics. Projecting the impacts of eCO2 on soil C greatly depends on quantifying its individual effects on C gains and losses, which is rarely done in field settings. We used a novel combination of litter bag and isotopic approaches to study temporal C dynamics in two organic substrates: root litter and mineral soil C (SOM-C) to assess C dynamics in a mature Eucalyptus woodland under CO2 enrichment (EucFACE). We aimed to isotopically separate different C pools for both substrates: a new C pool (Cnew, plant-derived C from the study site) and a pre-existent, old C pool (Cold, present in the original substrates). We also performed comprehensive microbial community analyses to investigate relationships between microbial community structure and individual C pools. We found higher root litter mass losses and slightly greater SOM-C Cold losses with eCO2 during summer months. Gains of Cnew were not affected by eCO2, except for SOM-C during summer, which is linked with the observed Cold losses from SOM-C. Moreover, fungal abundance in root litter increased with eCO2 but decreased in SOM-C. Temporal changes rather than eCO2-induced changes in microbial communities were related to C dynamics. Taken together our results suggest that eCO2 did not lead to significant Cnew gains but instead lead to moderate enhancement of Cnew and Cold losses, suggesting limited capacity for increased C sequestration of this mature woodland.

二氧化碳升高对桉树林地土壤和相关微生物的碳损益的影响

通过土壤有机质(SOM)分解产生的更高的碳损失可能会抵消因CO 2(eCO 2)升高而导致的土壤碳(C)的增加。eCO 2对土壤C的影响通常以土壤总C的变化来衡量,这不可避免地会混淆同时发生的C得失。此外,由于土壤有机底物具有独特的理化和微生物学特性,对于对比土壤有机底物,eCO 2对碳得失的影响可能有所不同。预测eCO 2的影响土壤碳的含量很大程度上取决于量化其对碳得失的影响,这在田间环境中很少见。我们使用垃圾袋和同位素方法的新颖组合研究了两种有机基质(根凋落物和矿质土壤C(SOM-C))中的时间C动态,以评估在CO 2富集(EucFACE)下成熟的桉树林地中的C动态。我们旨在通过同位素分离两种底物的不同C池:一个新的C池(来自研究地点的C new,来自植物的C)和一个已存在的旧C池(C old,存在于原始底物中)。我们还进行了全面的微生物群落分析,以调查微生物群落结构与单个碳库之间的关系。我们发现在夏季月份,使用eCO 2会导致更高的根凋落物质量损失和略微更大的SOM-C C损失。除了夏季的SOM-C以外,e new 2的C new增益不受eCO 2的影响,这与从SOM-C观察到的C old损失有关。此外,根凋落物中的真菌丰度随着eCO 2的增加而增加,而在SOM-C中则降低。微生物群落的时间变化而不是eCO 2诱导的变化与碳动力学有关。综合我们的结果表明,eCO2并未导致大量的C增加,而是导致C损失和C损失的适度增加,表明该成熟林地增加C固存的能力有限。
