ABSTRACT

Unregulated land-use conversion influences soil organic carbon (SOC) storage and sequestration causing fluctuations. As one of the most vulnerable regions to climate-change impact, Caribbean ecosystems require formulation of strong adaptation strategies to cope with the vagaries of climate change. Therefore, understanding SOC dynamics under land-use change is critical. With increasing popularity of proximal soil sensing (PSS), relating obtained signals to properties of interest, could offer time and cost-efficient procedures for characterizing properties. To our knowledge, no investigation has been conducted employing PSS using electromagnetic-induction (EMI) to characterize the spatial dynamics of SOC as a consequence of transitional land-use. Hence, our research broadens the evidence base for the characterization of SOC in island ecosystems. Apparent electrical conductivity (ECa) measured by a DUALEM-1S sensor was used to characterize SOC at 0–0.3 m under different land-uses. Spatial maps showed that EMI was suitable for distinguishing between natural and anthropogenic land-uses, with anthropogenic land-uses generally having higher and more variable ECa values (Quarry = 22.8–30.5 mS m−1, Agriculture = 5.0–11.3 mS m−1, Residential = 39.2–60.0 mS m−1, Forest = 9.3–14.5 mS m−1, Grass = 13.6–17.0 mS m−1). Natural land-uses had better soil quality indicating that SOC controls soil quality and varies in response to land-use.

利用近端土壤传感技术表征不同土地利用下热带生态系统的土壤有机碳

摘要

不受管制的土地利用转换会影响土壤有机碳 (SOC) 的储存和封存,从而导致波动。作为最易受气候变化影响的地区之一,加勒比生态系统需要制定强有力的适应战略,以应对变化无常的气候变化。因此,了解土地利用变化下的 SOC 动态至关重要。随着近端土壤传感 (PSS) 的日益普及,将获得的信号与感兴趣的特性相关联,可以提供用于表征特性的时间和成本效益高的程序。据我们所知,尚未进行使用电磁感应 (EMI) 的 PSS 来表征过渡性土地利用导致的 SOC 空间动态的研究。因此,我们的研究拓宽了表征岛屿生态系统中 SOC 的证据基础。由 DUALEM-1S 传感器测量的表观电导率 (ECa) 用于表征不同土地利用下 0-0.3 m 的 SOC。空间图显示 EMI 适合区分自然和人为土地利用,人为土地利用通常具有更高和更可变的 ECa 值(Quarry = 22.8–30.5 mS m-1,农业 = 5.0-11.3 mS m -1,住宅 = 39.2-60.0 mS m -1,森林 = 9.3-14.5 mS m -1,草 = 13.6-17.0 mS m -1)。自然土地利用具有更好的土壤质量,表明 SOC 控制土壤质量并随土地利用而变化。
