DINÂMICA DOS ATRIBUTOS FÍSICO-QUÍMICOS E VARIAÇÃO SAZONAL DOS ESTOQUES DE CARBONO NO SOLO EM DIFERENTES FITOFISIONOMIAS DO PANTANAL NORTE MATO-GROSSENSE
2015
The Pantanal biome may be considered a hyperseasonal environment where there is a flooded period followed by an extended dry period with very high temperatures. The diversity of vegetation types modify the input of carbon into the soil in different quantity and quality. With this focus, this study aimed to verify the effect of the hydrological Pantanal Cycle (rising, flood, low tide and dry season), on the dynamics of soil organic carbon stock in different vegetation types of Cambarazal, Riparian Forest, Mountain Range and Thorn-Scrub. Principal component analysis (PCA) identified three distinct groups, characterized by nutrient reserves and by soil acidity. The carbon stock of the soil is conditioned by seasonal factors and equally dependent on the local vegetation type that occurred in vegetation types that showed the highest level of natural fertility, respectively, Cambarazal and Thorn-Scrub. The highest carbon content was observed during the flood period, for most vegetation types and the lowest carbon stock occurred during the period of low tide in 2008, just after a period of anaerobiosis due to the flood and before the dry season became predominant.
