| 摘 要(英文)：Relatively little is known about the effects of regional warming on the carbon cycle of subtropical vergreen forest ecosystems, which are characterized by year-round growing season and cold winters.We nvestigated the carbon balance in three typical East Asia subtropical evergreen forests, using eddy flux, oil respiration and leaf-level measurements. Subtropical evergreen forests maintain continuous, high ates of photosynthetic activity, even during winter cold periods. Warm summers enhance photosynthetic ates in a limited way, because overall ecosystem productivity is primarily restrained by radiation levels uring the warm period. Conversely, warm climates significantly enhance the respiratory carbon efflux.The finding of lower ensitivity of photosynthesis relative to that of respiration suggests that increased emperature will weaken the carbon-sink strength of East Asia subtropical evergreen forests. |
