Understanding the dynamics and underlying mechanism of carbon exchange between terrestrial ecosystems and the atmosphere is one of the key issues in global change research. In this study, we quantified the carbon fluxes in different terrestrial ecosystems in China, and analyzed their spatial variation and environmental drivers based on the long‐term observation data of China FLUX sites and the published data from other flux sites in China. The results indicate that gross ecosystem productivity ( GEP ), ecosystem respiration ( ER ), and net ecosystem productivity ( NEP ) of terrestrial ecosystems in China showed a significantly latitudinal pattern, declining linearly with the increase of latitude. However, GEP , ER , and NEP did not present a clear longitudinal pattern. The carbon sink functional areas of terrestrial ecosystems in China were mainly located in the subtropical and temperate forests, coastal wetlands in eastern China, the temperate meadow steppe in the northeast China, and the alpine meadow in eastern edge of Qinghai‐Tibetan Plateau. The forest ecosystems had stronger carbon sink than grassland ecosystems. The spatial patterns of GEP and ER in China were mainly determined by mean annual precipitation ( MAP ) and mean annual temperature ( MAT ), whereas the spatial variation in NEP was largely explained by MAT . The combined effects of MAT and MAP explained 79%, 62%, and 66% of the spatial variations in GEP , ER , and NEP , respectively. The GEP , ER , and NEP in different ecosystems in China exhibited ‘positive coupling correlation’ in their spatial patterns. Both ER and NEP were significantly correlated with GEP , with 68% of the per‐unit GEP contributed to ER and 29% to NEP . MAT and MAP affected the spatial patterns of ER and NEP mainly by their direct effects on the spatial pattern of GEP .

The variation of tree beta diversity across a global network of forest plots - Miquel De Cáceres; Pierre Legendre; Renato Valencia; Min Cao; Li‐Wan Chang; George Chuyong; Richard Condit; Zhanqing Hao; Chang‐Fu Hsieh; Stephen Hubbell; David Kenfack; Keping Ma; et al. (Global Ecology and Biogeography, 2012)
Aims With the aim of understanding why some of the world's forests exhibit higher tree beta diversity values than others, we asked: (1) what is the contribution of environmentally related variation versus pure spatial and local stochastic variation to tree beta diversity assessed at the forest plot scale; (2) at what resolution are these beta‐diversity components more apparent; and (3) what determines the variation in tree beta diversity observed across regions/continents? Location World‐wide. Methods We compiled an unprecedented data set of 10 large‐scale stem‐mapping forest plots differing in latitude, tree species richness and topographic variability. We assessed the tree beta diversity found within each forest plot separately. The non‐directional variation in tree species composition among cells of the plot was our measure of beta diversity. We compared the beta diversity of each plot with the value expected under a null model. We also apportioned the beta diversity into four components: pure topographic, spatially structured topographic, pure spatial and unexplained. We used linear mixed models to interpret the variation of beta diversity values across the plots. Results Total tree beta diversity within a forest plot decreased with increasing cell size, and increased with tree species richness and the amount of topographic variability of the plot. The topography‐related component of beta diversity was correlated with the amount of topographic variability but was unrelated to its species richness. The unexplained variation was correlated with the beta diversity expected under the null model and with species richness. Main conclusions Because different components of beta diversity have different determinants, comparisons of tree beta diversity across regions should quantify not only overall variation in species composition but also its components. Global‐scale patterns in tree beta diversity are largely coupled with changes in gamma richness due to the relationship between the latter and the variation generated by local stochastic assembly processes.

Effects of changing p CO 2 and phosphate availability on domoic acid production and physiology of the marine harmful bloom diatom Pseudo‐nitzschia multiseries - Jun Sun; David A. Hutchins; Yuanyuan Feng; Erica L. Seubert; David A. Caron; Fei-Xue Fu (Limnology and Oceanography, 2011)
Some members of the diatom genus Pseudo‐nitzschia produce the toxin domoic acid (DA), which through trophic transfer causes mass mortalities of wildlife, shellfish harvesting closures, and risks to human health. Nutrient and micronutrient limitation have been shown to regulate DA production. This study tested the hypothesis that changing partial pressure of CO 2 ( p CO 2 ) can interact with nutrient limitation to help determine cellular DA levels, an environmentally relevant issue in light of current increases in atmospheric p CO 2 . Cultures of the toxic species Pseudo‐nitzschia multiseries were incubated using semicontinuous methods under a matrix of three p CO 2 conditions: ∼ 22 Pa (220 ppm), ∼ 41 Pa (400 ppm), and ~ 74 Pa (730 ppm), and two phosphate concentrations: 20 μmol L −1 , P‐replete; and 0.5 μmol L −1 , P‐limited. DA production was regulated by both p CO 2 and phosphate availability. DA concentrations were 30–50 times higher in P‐limited cultures compared to P‐replete ones, at the same p CO 2 levels. Increasing CO 2 levels stimulated DA production under both nutrient conditions, but especially in P‐limited cultures, where DA levels increased approximately four times over the p CO 2 range examined. Growth rates, primary productivity, photosynthesis vs. irradiance parameters, and cellular elemental ratios also responded interactively to the availability of both CO 2 and phosphate. Our results raise the possibility that growth rates and toxicity of the diatom Pseudo‐nitzschia multiseries could increase substantially in the future high‐CO 2 ocean, suggesting a potentially escalating negative effect of this harmful algal bloom species on the future marine environment.

Environmental controls over carbon exchange of three forest ecosystems in eastern China - GUI‐RUI YU; LEI‐MING ZHANG; XIAO‐MIN SUN; YU‐LING FU; XUE‐FA WEN; QIU‐FENG WANG; SHENG‐GONG LI; CHUAN‐YOU REN; XIA SONG; YUN‐FEN LIU; SHI‐JIE HAN; JUN‐HUA YAN (Global Change Biology, 2008)
Net ecosystem productivity (NEP) was continuously measured using the eddy covariance (EC) technique from 2003 to 2005 at three forest sites of ChinaFLUX. The forests include Changbaishan temperate mixed forest (CBS), Qianyanzhou subtropical coniferous plantation (QYZ), and Dinghushan subtropical evergreen broad‐leaved forest (DHS). They span wide ranges of temperature and precipitation and are influenced by the eastern Asian monsoon climate to varying extent. In this study, we estimated ecosystem respiration (RE) and gross ecosystem productivity (GEP). Comparison of ecosystem carbon exchange among the three forests shows that RE was mainly determined by temperature, with the forest at CBS exhibiting the highest temperature sensitivity among the three ecosystems. The RE was highly dependent on GEP across the three forests, and the ratio of RE to GEP decreased along the North–South Transect of Eastern China (NSTEC) (i.e. from the CBS to the DHS), with an average of 0.77 ± 0.06. Daily GEP was mainly influenced by temperature at CBS, whereas photosynthetic photon flux density was the dominant factor affecting the daily GEP at both QYZ and DHS. Temperature mainly determined the pattern of the interannual variations of ecosystem carbon exchange at CBS. However, water availability primarily controlled the interannual variations of ecosystem carbon exchange at QYZ. At DHS, NEP attained the highest values at the beginning of the dry seasons (autumn) rather than the rainy seasons (summer), probably because insufficient radiation and frequent fog during the rainy seasons hindered canopy photosynthesis. All the three forest ecosystems acted as a carbon sink from 2003 to 2005. The annual average values of NEP at CBS, QYZ, and DHS were 259 ± 19, 354 ± 34, and 434 ± 66 g C m −2 yr −1 , respectively. The slope of NEP that decreased with increasing latitude along the NSTEC was markedly different from that observed on the forest transect in the European continent. Long‐term flux measurements over more forest ecosystems along the NSTEC will further help verify such a difference between the European forest transect and the NSTEC and provide insights into the responses of ecosystem carbon exchange to climate change in China.

Effects of vegetation control on ecosystem water use efficiency within and among four grassland ecosystems in China - ZHONGMIN HU; GUIRUI YU; YULING FU; XIAOMIN SUN; YINGNIAN LI; PEILI SHI; YANFEN WANG; ZEMEI ZHENG (Global Change Biology, 2008)
Through 2–3‐year (2003–2005) continuous eddy covariance measurements of carbon dioxide and water vapor fluxes, we examined the seasonal, inter‐annual, and inter‐ecosystem variations in the ecosystem‐level water use efficiency (WUE, defined as the ratio of gross primary production, GPP, to evapotranspiration, ET) at four Chinese grassland ecosystems in the Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau and North China. Representing the most prevalent grassland types in China, the four ecosystems are an alpine swamp meadow ecosystem, an alpine shrub‐meadow ecosystem, an alpine meadow‐steppe ecosystem, and a temperate steppe ecosystem, which illustrate a water availability gradient and thus provide us an opportunity to quantify environmental and biological controls on ecosystem WUE at different spatiotemporal scales. Seasonally, WUE tracked closely with GPP at the four ecosystems, being low at the beginning and the end of the growing seasons and high during the active periods of plant growth. Such consistent correspondence between WUE and GPP suggested that photosynthetic processes were the dominant regulator of the seasonal variations in WUE. Further investigation indicated that the regulations were mainly due to the effect of leaf area index (LAI) on carbon assimilation and on the ratio of transpiration to ET ( T /ET). Besides, except for the swamp meadow, LAI also controlled the year‐to‐year and site‐to‐site variations in WUE in the same way, resulting in the years or sites with high productivity being accompanied by high WUE. The general good correlation between LAI and ecosystem WUE indicates that it may be possible to predict grassland ecosystem WUE simply with LAI. Our results also imply that climate change‐induced shifts in vegetation structure, and consequently LAI may have a significant impact on the relationship between ecosystem carbon and water cycles in grasslands.

The Heilongjiang Group: A Jurassic accretionary complex in the Jiamusi Massif at the western Pacific margin of northeastern China - Fu‐Yuan Wu; Jin‐Hui Yang; Ching‐Hua Lo; Simon A. Wilde; De‐You Sun; Bor‐Ming Jahn (Island Arc, 2007)
The tectonic setting of the Eastern Asian continental margin in the Jurassic is highly controversial. In the current study, we have selected the Heilongjiang complex located at the western margin of the Jiamusi Massif in northeastern China for geochronological investigation to address this issue. Field and petrographic investigations indicate that the Heilongjiang complex is composed predominately of granitic gneiss, marble, mafic‐ultramafic rocks, blueschist, greenschist, quartzite, muscovite‐albite schist and two‐mica schist that were tectonically interleaved, indicating they represent a mélange. The marble, two‐mica schist and granitic gneiss were most probably derived from the Mashan complex, a high‐grade gneiss complex in the Jiamusi Massif with which the Heilongjiang Group is intimately associated. The ultramafic rocks, blueschist, greenschist and quartzite (chert) are similar to components in ophiolite. The sensitive high mass‐resolution ion microprobe U‐Pb zircon age of 265 ± 4 Ma for the granitic gneiss indicates that the protolith granite was emplaced coevally with Permian batholiths in the Jiamusi Massif. 40 Ar/ 39 Ar dating of biotite and phengite from the granitic gneiss and mica schist yields a late Early Jurassic metamorphic age between 184 and 174 Ma. Early components of the Jiamusi Massif, including the Mashan complex, probably formed part of an exotic block from Gondwana, affected by late Pan‐African orogenesis, and collided with the Asian continental margin during the Early Jurassic. Subduction of oceanic crust between the Jiamusi block and the eastern part of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt resulted in the formation of a huge volume of Jurassic granites in the Zhangguangcai Range. Consequently, the collision of the Jiamusi Massif with the Central Asian Orogenic Belt to the west can be considered as the result of circum‐Pacific accretion, unrelated to the Central Asian Orogenic Belt. The widespread development of Jurassic accretionary complexes along the Asian continental margin supports such an interpretation.

Absence of Archean basement in the South Kunlun Block: Nd‐Sr‐O isotopic evidence from granitoids - Chao Yuan; Min Sun; Mei‐Fu Zhou; Hui Zhou; Wenjiao Xiao; Jiliang Li (Island Arc, 2003)
The West Kunlun mountain range along the northwestern margin of the Tibetan Plateau is crucial in understanding the early tectonic history of the region. It can be divided into the North and South Kunlun Blocks, of which the former is considered to be part of the Tarim Craton, whereas consensus was not reached on the nature and origin of the South Kunlun Block. Samples were collected from the 471 Ma Yirba Pluton, the 405 Ma North Kudi Pluton and the 214 Ma Arkarz Shan Intrusive Complex. These granitoids cover approximately 60% of the Kudi area in the South Kunlun Block. Sr, Nd, and O isotope compositions preclude significant involvement of mantle‐derived magma in the genesis of these granitoids; therefore, they can be used to decipher the nature of lower–mid crust in the area. All samples give Mesoproterozoic Nd model ages (1.1–1.5 Ga) similar to those of the exposed metamorphic complex of this block but significantly different from those of the basement of the North Kunlun Block (2.8 Ga). This indicates that the South Kunlun Block does not have an Archean basement, and, thus, does not support the microcontinent model that suggests the South Kunlun Block was a microcontinent once separated from and later collided back with the North Kunlun Block.

Comparative study of platinum‐group elements in the Coto and Acoje blocks of the Zambales Ophiolite Complex, Philippines - Mei‐Fu Zhou; Graciano P. Yumul; John Malpas; Min Sun (Island Arc, 2000)
The Zambales Ophiolite Complex (ZOC), Philippines, includes two geochemically distinct, ophiolitic assemblages: the high‐Al chromitite‐bearing Coto Block and high‐Cr chromitite‐bearing Acoje Block. This paper reports a comparative platinum‐group element (PGE) study of these two blocks. The PGE data were obtained using Ni‐sulfide fire assay preconcentration combined with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP‐MS) measurement. Podiform chromitites in the Acoje Block have higher Cu, Ir, Ru and Rh contents than their equivalents in the Coto Block, although chromitites from both have similar Pt and Pd contents. The PGE mantle‐normalized patterns of dunites from the two blocks are also different: dunites from the Coto Block are depleted in Pt, whereas those from the Acoje Block have a relatively flat pattern. The data demonstrate that Coto and Acoje Blocks have different origins in terms of their source region and partial melting processes. This study implies that the ZOC is a paired ophiolite belt formed in an island arc and back‐arc basin environment.
