摘  要: Upland forest soil is an important CH4 sink that plays a key role in climate change mitigation. China features large areas of various types of forest, but spatiotemporal variation in CH4 flux has not yet been clarified. Here, we analyzed variation in CH4 flux and the effects of environmental variables on the CH4 flux of forest in China using in situ observational data. Upland forest soil absorbed CH4 at a rate of 0.24 +/- 0.02 g m(-2) yr(-1). The CH4 uptake rate (0.46 +/- 0.10 g m(-2) yr(-1)) of warm temperate deciduous broad-leaved forest was the highest. Soil alkali-hydrolyzable nitrogen was the only factor significantly correlated with CH4 uptake variation among vegetation zones. A break point in CH4 uptake over the study period (from 1997 to 2020) was detected in 2015. CH4 uptake slightly decreased until 2015 and increased after 2015. The mean CH4 uptake of the period after 2015 (0.44 +/- 0.07 g m(-2) yr(-1)) was significantly higher than that before 2015 (0.20 +/- 0.02 g m(-2) yr(-1)). Atmospheric nitrogen deposition was negatively related to interannual CH4 uptake. Our findings suggest that the CH4 uptake of upland forest soil will continue to increase over the next few decades as China accelerates efforts to achieve its carbon neutrality goal, and this would result in continuous decreases in nitrogen deposition through various pathways.
