Uncertainty Effect of Forest Harvest on Soil Carbon Pool:A Review

  • Received Date: 2015-01-19
  • Forest soil carbon(SOC) is the key part of the global carbon cycle. However, the existence of multiple forest types with various forest managements makes huge variabilities on maintenance mechanism of forest soil carbon pool and soil sequestration process, so as the evaluation of forest soil pool. Being the main method of forest management, harvest has effect on forest carbon pool and carbon process directly and indirectly. Therefore it is critical to have deeper understanding of response of the forest SOC to forest harvest. By literature review, this paper summarized research progress on forest soil carbon pool and soil respiration with different harvest types at home and abroad, and the uncertainties that influenced results had been analyzed. Harvest types, forest types, harvest residue management and microbial factors were main factors regulated SOC. Based on the review, unsolved problems of the recent research, emphasis of related work in the future had also been proposed:1)biotic factors was the main producer of CO2, and its sturcture and function changed responsed to disturbance, which influenced the soil carbon realese and sequestration straightly, however the machanism of this process was unclear, needed to be investugated further; 2) the effects of various harvest types to different area and forest soil types was so complex that process models and machnism models needed to be developed based on the intensive experiment researches, to provide technical support for carbon cycle and carbon accounting of forest ecosystem, and reference for the studies about forest management and carbon sink in China.

Abstract: Forest soil carbon(SOC) is the key part of the global carbon cycle. However, the existence of multiple forest types with various forest managements makes huge variabilities on maintenance mechanism of forest soil carbon pool and soil sequestration process, so as the evaluation of forest soil pool. Being the main method of forest management, harvest has effect on forest carbon pool and carbon process directly and indirectly. Therefore it is critical to have deeper understanding of response of the forest SOC to forest harvest. By literature review, this paper summarized research progress on forest soil carbon pool and soil respiration with different harvest types at home and abroad, and the uncertainties that influenced results had been analyzed. Harvest types, forest types, harvest residue management and microbial factors were main factors regulated SOC. Based on the review, unsolved problems of the recent research, emphasis of related work in the future had also been proposed:1)biotic factors was the main producer of CO2, and its sturcture and function changed responsed to disturbance, which influenced the soil carbon realese and sequestration straightly, however the machanism of this process was unclear, needed to be investugated further; 2) the effects of various harvest types to different area and forest soil types was so complex that process models and machnism models needed to be developed based on the intensive experiment researches, to provide technical support for carbon cycle and carbon accounting of forest ecosystem, and reference for the studies about forest management and carbon sink in China.
