英文摘要: Estimates of gaseous carbon (C) fluxes in wetlands are heavily based on temperature. However, isolating specific effects of temperature on anaerobic C processing from other controls (C quality and nutrients) has proven difficult. Here, we test the hypothesis that temperature sensitivity of soil organic matter (SOM) decomposition is more influenced by C quality than nutrient availability in subtropical freshwater, sawgrass (Cladium jamaicense)-based peats. Carbon age (characterized by depth: 0–10 and 10–20 cm) was used as a surrogate of C quality while two sites were selected with contrasting levels of nutrient (P) availability. In anaerobic laboratory incubations temperature was increased in 5 °C steps to assess the proportion of C available at a given temperature (i.e. thermo-labile C) as productions of gaseous (CO2 and CH4) and dissolved organic C (DOC) fractions. Thermo-labile C increased 3.1–3.6 times from 15 °C to 30 °C in all soils. Disproportionate increase in the production of gaseous forms versus DOC as well as CH4:CO2 was observed with warming. Observed Q10 values followed the trend of CH4 (~14) ≫ CO2 (~2.5) > DOC (~1.7) and temperature sensitivity was more dependent on C quality than nutrient availability over the entire temperature range. Spectral analysis indicated more bio-available DOC production at higher temperature. Regression analysis also indicated that C quality primarily influenced SOM decomposition at lower temperature, while at higher temperature nutrient limitation dominantly controlled SOM decomposition. These findings confirm the role of C quality in temperature sensitivity of warm peat soils, but also indicate an increased importance of nutrient limitation at higher temperature. © 2016, Springer International Publishing Switzerland.
