| 摘 要： | Litter decomposition is a major method in which nutrients are recycled, especially carbon and nitrogen elements, in terrestrial ecosystems. However, how the responses of litter quality and soil microbial communities to global changes alter litter decomposition remains unclear. A 4-year field manipulative experiment based on the litterbag method was conducted in a typical temperate semiarid grassland in China to explore how increased precipitation and nitrogen de-position affect decomposition processes via litter quality and soil microbial communities. Our results showed that water and nitrogen addition treatments could accelerate litter carbon release and promote mass loss through different pathways. Water addition had a direct positive effect on litter decomposition. However, nitrogen addition could indi-rectly promote litter decomposition by improving litter quality and increasing the bacterial and fungal ratios. The water addition treatment increased litter mass loss by 7.37 %, and the N addition treatments increased litter mass loss by 5.83 %-16.93 %. Moreover, water and nitrogen additions had antagonistic effects on litter decomposition. These findings revealed that litter quality and the soil bacterial to fungal ratio were the factors controlling litter decom-position. The changes in precipitation and nitrogen deposition will impact ecosystem carbon and nitrogen cycling by altering litter decomposition processes in semiarid grassland ecosystems under the context of climate change. |
