In this study, a set of six OTCs were established at a Phragmites wetland located in the Yellow River Delta of Dongying City, China. With data collected through online transmission and in-situ sensors, the attributes and patterns of realized OTCs warming are demonstrated.The authors also quantified the preliminary influence of experimental chamber warming on plant traits.OTCs produced an elevated average air temperature of 0.8°C(relative to controls) during the growing season(June to October) of 2018, and soil temperatures actually decreased by 0.54°C at a depth of 5 cm and 0.46°C at a depth of 30 cm in the OTCs. Variations in diel patterns of warming depend greatly on the heat sources of incoming radiation in the daytime versus soil heat flux at night. Warming effects were often larger during instantaneous analyses and influenced OTCs air temperatures from-2.5°C to 8.3°C dependent on various meteorological conditions at any given time, ranging from cooling influences from vertical heat exchange and vegetation to radiation-associated warming. Night-time temperature depressions in the OTCs were due to the low turbulence inside OTCs and changes in surface soilatmosphere heat transfer. Plant shoot density, basal diameter, and biomass of Phragmites decreased by23.2%, 6.3%, and 34.0%, respectively, under experimental warming versus controls, and plant height increased by 4.3%, reflecting less carbon allocation to stem structures as plants in the OTCs experienced simultaneous wind buffering. While these passive-warming OTCs created the desired warming effects both to the atmosphere and soils, pest damages on the plant leaves and lodging within the OTCs were extensive and serious, creating the need to consider control options for these chambers and the replicated OTCs studies underway in other Chinese Phragmites marshes(Panjin and Yancheng).展开更多
为探究开顶式气室(Open top chamber,OTC)内外环境差异及其对植物生长的影响,通过对比观测OTC内外的温度、湿度、光合有效辐射以及小麦的净光合速率、生物量、产量,评价了OTC对小麦生长的环境条件及叶片光合速率和产量的影响程度。结果...为探究开顶式气室(Open top chamber,OTC)内外环境差异及其对植物生长的影响,通过对比观测OTC内外的温度、湿度、光合有效辐射以及小麦的净光合速率、生物量、产量,评价了OTC对小麦生长的环境条件及叶片光合速率和产量的影响程度。结果表明:实验通气时间段(9:00—17:00),OTC内部温度比外部高4.8℃(P<0.05),相对湿度低0.6个百分点(P<0.05),光合有效辐射低32.3%(P<0.05)。OTC内小麦的净光合速率显著高于OTC外(P<0.05),且最大影响出现在小麦灌浆阶段。OTC内的小麦单株生物量增加了13.3%,其中穗生物量增加最多(35.2%);小麦单株产量增加了49.2%,其中籽粒数和千粒质量均增加了34.5%。实验结果不仅表明OTC增温能够促进农作物生产并提高产量,而且也提示,若采用OTC开展空气CO_(2)和O_(3)等浓度增加对植物影响模拟实验时,应该尽量减少OTC内外的微气候差异,并考虑OTC增温可能对实验结果的影响。展开更多
