英文摘要 | The effect of the time-scale of water conditions on vegetation productivity has been widely studied by the academic community. However, the relationship between the time-scale of water conditions and the vegetation growth rhythm and the effect of this relationship on vegetation biomass estimation have rarely been discussed. Here, we analyzed the occurrence times of major phenological events on alpine grasslands using the widely distributed site-dominant species dataset and set a series of time-scales for accumulated precipitation and standardized precipitation evapotranspiration index based on phenological information. Then, we combined large-scale aboveground/belowground biomass datasets to evaluate the role of the optimal time-scale for water conditions in aboveground/belowground biomass estimation. The results showed that (1) the optimal time-scale for water conditions with the greatest effects on aboveground biomass was on the month before the end of flowering or the onset of fruit maturity. The optimal time-scale for water condition effects on belowground biomass was earlier and longer than that for the aboveground biomass. The optimal time-scales for accumulated precipitation and standardized precipitation evapotranspiration index effects on belowground biomass were at five months before the end of flowering or the beginning of fruit ripening and the three months before the first flowering, respectively. (2) The aboveground and belowground biomass were underestimated by 11 % and 9 %, respectively, when the water conditions at the optimal time-scales were ignored. (3) The interannual variability in aboveground/belowground biomass was more effectively captured by considering the optimal time-scales of water conditions, especially in water-restricted areas. Overall, this study indicated that terrestrial carbon cycle models should incorporate information on the lag-effects of the water conditions in previous periods. In the future, increasing the number of belowground biomass observations and conducting monthly belowground biomass monitoring sooner will be key to revealing the mechanisms of the belowground biomass response to climate change. |
