复垦矿区土地利用类型变化对植被碳储量的影响

Impact of reclamation-driven land use change on vegetation carbon store in mining areas

  • 摘要: 分析气候变化和人为因素对煤矿区生态环境的影响, 可为复垦矿区的生态效益评价提供重要指导作用。本文以济宁某矿区为例, 采用改进的CASA(Carnegie Ames Stanford Approach, CASA)模型估算矿区的碳储量, 然后将碳储量作为衡量气候变化、采矿活动和土地复垦对矿区生态环境损失的指标, 通过该指标实现气候变化、采矿活动和土地复垦的可比性。结果表明: 1)研究区碳储量以2003年为节点, 1987—2003年呈增长趋势, 2003—2010年呈衰减趋势, 2010—2014年呈增长趋势; 2003年碳储量最高, 为4 645.738 t, 2014年碳储量为 3 764.621 t; 2)矿区植被净初级生产力(net primary productivity, NPP)的变化是气候因素和人为因素共同作用的结果, 气候变化对碳密度的扰动范围为2.832~9.465 gm-2, 采矿活动对碳密度的扰动范围为9.897~13.435 gm-2, 采矿活动和土地复垦共同作用对碳密度的扰动范围为11.132~12.839 gm-2, 人为因素对碳密度的扰动大于气候因素; 3)采煤活动破坏了矿区的耕地和生态环境, 碳储量大量流失, 1987—1995年碳损失量为30.503 t, 1995—2003年碳损失量为38.963 t, 2003—2014年碳损失量为189.709 t; 4)矿区碳储量受采矿活动影响较明显, 但土地复垦可以有效恢复部分流失的碳量, 矿区碳损失量最大恢复4.731%, 一定程度上抑制采煤活动对矿区生态的破坏。因此, 土地复垦可以缓解采矿造成的生态破坏, 提高土地的生产力。

     

    Abstract: Mining activities and climate change severely impact eco-environment of the mining areas. However, land reclamation effectively reclaimed the mining area and restored the environment. It is important for ecological benefit evaluation in restoration of mining area to analyze the effect of climate change and human factors on ecological environment of mining areas. The researches concerning carbon storage of soil and vegetation in the mining area have gained a lot of results and provide us an effective tool for further evaluating the effect of climate and human activity on environment in the areas. In this study, we estimated vegetation carbon storage using a modified CASA (Carnegie Ames Stanford Approach, CASA) model in Ji’ning where the environment had been highly disturbed by mining and reclamation activities. Then Chikug’ model was used to evaluate the effects of both climate change on carbon storage of the mining area. The results suggested that: 1) with year 2003 as a key point, the carbon storage in the research area increased from 1987 to 2003, and then decreased till 2010, and increased again during 20102014. The carbon storage of the study area in 2003 was the highest point (4 645.738 t) during the study period, and in 2010 was the lowest point (3 687.741 t). 2) The net primary productivity (NPP) of vegetation in the mining area was changed by comprehensive effect of both climate and human activity. The range of disturbance of climate change on carbon density was 2.8329.465 gm-2, the range of disturbance of mining activities on carbon density was 9.89713.435 gm-2, and the range of disturbance of combined mining activities and land reclamation on carbon density was 11.13212.839 gm-2. The amplitude of carbon density was 2.8329.465 gm2 influenced by climate change, 9.897 13.435 gm-2 influenced by mining activities, and 11.13212.839 gm-2 influenced by combined effect of coal mining and mining land restoration. Although the change of carbon density in the mining area was influenced by both climate change and anthropic factors, the influence of anthropic activity was stronger than climate change on the change of carbon density. 3) Coal mining destroyed cultivated lands and ecological environment, which led to a severe loss of carbon store. The carbon storage loss was 30.503 t in 19871995, 38.963 t in 19952003, and 189.709 t in 20032014. 4) Coal mining activity obviously increased the loss of vegetation carbon storage in this area, but land reclamation recovered the loss, and the maximum recovery was 4.731%. This, to a certain extent, alleviated the destruction of ecological environment due to coal mining activities. Therefore, land reclamation was a powerful strategy for alleviating ecological damage due to mining activities, and improving soil productivity.
