Abstract:

This study explored the carbon emissions and their influencing factors in Baiyangdian wetland, in order to provide a basis for the carbon management. Temporal and spatial variations of methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2) emission fluxes in Baiyangdian wetland were measured using the static closed chamber gas chromatography technique. The temporal variations show that the CH4 and CO2 emission fluxes increase first then decrease from May to October, and the daily variation of CH4 and CO2 emission fluxes is relatively large in July. The spatial variation of CH4 emission fluxes is in the following order: ecotone zone with reeds>terrace zone with reeds>water zone>terrestrial zone. However, the CO2 emission fluxes show the opposite results. Besides that, CH4 and CO2 emission fluxes are significantly and positively correlated with temperature and soil TN content (P<0.05). Under the same environmental condition, CH4 and CO2 emission fluxes have significantly positive correlations (P<0.05). In sum, CH4 and CO2 emission fluxes show significant temporal and spatial variation, and are influenced by air temperature, soil N and reeds biomass.

Key words: Baiyangdian wetland, methane emissions, carbon dioxide emissions, influencing factors
