备注

土壤水分亏缺在黄土高原植被恢复过程中表现较为严重,这对黄土高原的生态恢复与植被建设造成了很大的障碍。只有充分了解黄土高原的土壤水分特征及其亏缺状况,才能为植被恢复提供参考。对陕北黄土高原典型次生林地和草地的土壤水分进行了测量,对雨季和非雨季的山杨、沙棘、辽东栎和撂荒地土壤水分亏缺特征进行了定量评价。结果 显示:3种林地0—500 cm土层的土壤含水量与储水量随着土层深度的增加都呈先增加后缓慢下降,撂荒地随着土层深度增加呈增加趋势,且其含水量与储水量是最高的。不同恢复植被的土壤含水量与储水量大小顺序为:撂荒地>沙棘>山杨>辽东栎。与撂荒地相比,3种林地的相对亏缺指数顺序为:辽东栎>山杨>沙棘,雨季的的土壤亏缺状况较非雨季严重,植被类型、土壤质地和土层深度是影响植被演替过程中土壤水分亏缺状况的关键因子。

Soil water deficit is serious during the vegetation restoration on the Loess Plateau, which causes great obstacle to ecological restoration and vegetation construction on the Loess Plateau. Only by fully understanding the characteristics of soil moisture and its deficiency on the Loess Plateau can provide a theoretical basis for vegetation restoration. In this study, soil water contents of typical secondary forest and grassland on the Loess Plateau were measured, and soil water storage capacity and soil water deficit on the Populus davidiana Dode, Hippophae rhamnoides(Linn.), Quercus liaotungensis Koidz woodland and layland in rainy and non-rainy seasons were quantitatively evaluated. The results showed that the soil moisture contents and water storage capacities in the 0—500 cm soil layer of the three kinds of forestlands increased first and then declined slowly with the increase of soil depth, and those at the layland increased with the increase of soil depth, and the water content and water storage capacity were the highest; The soil water content and water storage of different restored vegetation decreased in the order: layland>Hippophae rhamnoides(Linn.)>Populus davidiana Dode> Quercus liaotungensis Koidz woodland; compared with the layland, the relative deficit index of three kinds of woodlands decreased in the order: Quercus liaotungensis Koidz>Populus davidiana Dode>Hippophae rhamnoides(Linn.)woodland, the soil deficit in the rainy season was more serious than that in the non-rainy season; vegetation type, soil texture and soil depth are the key factors affecting soil water deficit during the vegetation succession.
