Vegetation cover—another dominant factor in determining global water resources in forested regions

Global Change Biology (2017)

Xiaohua Wei Qiang Li Mingfang Zhang Krysta Giles‐Hansen Wenfei Liu

Abstract Forested catchments provide critically important water resources. Due to dramatic global forest change over the past decades, the importance of including forest or vegetation change in the assessment of water resources under climate change has been highly recognized by Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC); however, this importance has not yet been examined quantitatively across the globe. Here, we used four remote sensing‐based indices to represent changes in vegetation cover in forest‐dominated regions, and then applied them to widely used models: the Fuh model and the Choudhury‐Yang model to assess relative contributions of vegetation and climate change to annual runoff variations from 2000 to 2011 in forested landscape (forest coverage >30%) across the globe. Our simulations show that the global average variation in annual runoff due to change in vegetation cover is 30.7% ± 22.5% with the rest attributed to climate change. Large annual runoff variation in response to vegetation change is found in tropical and boreal forests due to greater forest losses. Our simulations also demonstrate both offsetting and additive effects of vegetation cover and climate in determining water resource change. We conclude that vegetation cover change must be included in any global models for assessing global water resource change under climate change in forest‐dominant areas.

Nutrient Accumulation and Cycling of an Eucalyptus urophylly ×E. grandis Plantation

Chinese Journal of Appplied Environmental Biology (2012)

Houbao Fan Yanyan Li Wenfei Liu Rongzhen Huang Yuan Yinghong

The nutrient accumulation and cycling were investigated from 2-to 6-year-old Eucalyptus urophylly × E.grandis plantations in the southern mountain region of Fujian Province,China.The results showed that N content was the highest in the tree components,followed by K,Ca,Mg and P.N content in the 2-,3-,4–year-old stands decreased,then increased slightly in the 5-and 6-year-old stands.The nutrient accumulations were 753.26,882.07,1 010.22,1 087.51,1 704.79 kg hm-2 in the 2-,3-,4-,5-and 6-year-old stands,respectively.Annual net nutrient accumulation was highest(505.36 kg hm-2) in the 6-yearold stand,and in the 2-,3-,4-,and 5-year-old stands,the values were 383.37,392.25,424.21,400.89 kg hm-1 a-1,respectively.The nutrient absorption increased along stand age while nutrient return showed a decreased trend.The coefficients of nutrient utilization were 0.51,0.44,0.42,0.37,0.30 along the forest age.The nutrient cycling coefficients did not show obvious trend with the values from 0.16 to 0.24.The recycling period of nutrients was 8.76,9.75,7.58,9.39,17.47 years along with stand age,respectively.The results indicate that Eucalyptus urophylly × E.grandis plantations have low nutrient utilization efficiency in the early stage while have high nutrient utilization efficiency.Nutrient deficient would limit biomass accumulation in these plantations and fertilization management should be considered.

Impacts of climate change and fruit tree expansion on key hydrological components at different spatial scales

Frontiers in Forests and Global Change (2023)

yarui xu Wenfei Liu Houbao Fan Fang‐Fang Shen Jian Wu

Assessing how fruit tree expansion and climate variability affect hydrological components (e.g., water yield, surface runoff, underground runoff, soil water, evapotranspiration, and infiltration) at different spatial scales is crucial for the management and protection of watersheds, ecosystems, and engineering design. The Jiujushui watershed (259.32 km 2 ), which experienced drastic forest changes over the past decades, was selected to explore the response mechanisms of hydrological components to fruit tree expansion and climate variability at different spatial scales (whole basin and subbasin scale). Specifically, we set up two change scenarios (average temperature increase of 0.5°C and fruit tree area expansion of 18.97%) in the SWAT model by analyzing historical data (1961∼2011). Results showed that climate change reduced water yield, surface runoff, and underground runoff by 6.75, 0.37, and 5.91 mm, respectively. By contrast, the expansion of fruit trees increased surface runoff and water yield by 2.81 and 4.10 mm, respectively, but decreased underground runoff by 1 mm. Interestingly, the sub-basins showed different intensities and directions of response under climate change and fruit tree expansion scenarios. However, the downstream response was overall more robust than the upstream response. These results suggest that there may be significant differences in the hydrological effects of climate change and fruit tree expansion at different spatial scales, thus any land disturbance measures should be carefully considered.

Individual size but not additional nitrogen regulates tree carbon sequestration in a subtropical forest

Scientific Reports (2017)

Jianping Wu Honglang Duan Wenfei Liu Xiaohua Wei Yingchun Liao

Recent studies have indicated that tree carbon accumulation in subtropical forests has been negatively affected by global change phenomena such as warming and drought. However, the long-term effect of nitrogen addition on plant carbon storage remains poorly understood in these regions. In this study, we conducted a 10-year field experiment examining the effect of experimental N addition on plant growth and carbon storage in a subtropical Chinese fir forest. The N levels were 0 (control), 60, 120, and 240 kg ha-1 yr-1, and the N effects on tree carbon were divided into stand and individual levels. The results indicated that tree carbon storage at the stand scale was not affected by long-term N addition in the subtropical forest. By contrast, significant impacts of different tree size classes on carbon sequestration were found under different N treatments, which indicated that the amount of plant carbon sequestration was significantly enhanced with tree size class. Our findings highlight the importance of community structure and growth characteristics in Chinese fir forests, in which individual size but not additional N regulates tree carbon sequestration in this subtropical forest.
