摘要
High nitrous oxide (N20) emissions during freeze-thawing period (FFP) have been observed in many different ecosystems. However, the knowledge about the dynamic of soil N20 emissions and its main driving mechanism during the freeze-thawing processes in grassland ecosystem is still limited. An in-situ experiment was conducted during the FTP on the sites with 0 and 15% surplus of the average rainfall and two levels of N addition (0,10 g N/(m2-year)) during growing season (marked as WON0, WISN0, WONI0, WISNI0, respectively) to explore the effects of water and N background on soil N20 emissions during FTPs and the relationship between soil N20 emissions and environmental factors. The results indicated that water and N treatments conducted during growing season did not show significant effect on the N20 effluxes of FTP, but the soil mineral N contents of WONI0 treatment were significantly higher than those of WON0, WI5N0, WI5NI0 treatments (p 〈 0.05). The soil PLFA concentrations of microbial groups monitored during 2015 spring freeze-thawing period (2015S-FTP) were lower than those during winter freeze-thawing period of 2014 (2014W-FTP), while cumulative soil N20 emissions of 2015S-FTP were higher than those of 2014W-FFP. The correlations between soil N20 effluxes and most of the measured environmental factors were insignificant, multiple stepwise regression analysis indicated that the soil temperature, soil NH$-N content and air temperature were the major environmental factors which significantly influenced the N20 effluxes during 2014W-FTP, and air temperature and son water content were the significant influencing factors during 2015S-FTP.
