英文摘要 | Biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOCs) emitted from plants have substantial effects on atmospheric chemistry/physics and feedbacks on ecosystem function. The on-going climate change and anthropogenic disturbance have been confirmed to cause the evident degradation of grassland with shift of plant community, and hence BVOCs emissions were suspected to be altered due to the different BOVCs emission potentials of different species. In this study, we investigated BVOCs concentration above ground surface during growing season in a degraded semi-arid grassland (41 degrees 2'N-45 degrees 6'N, 113 degrees 5'-117 degrees 8') in Inner Mongolia. The observed monoterpenes' concentrations varied from 0.10 to 215.78 mu gm(-3) (34.88 +/- 9.73 mu gm(-3) in average) across 41 sites. Compared to non-degraded grassland, concentrations of monoterpenes were about 180 times higher at the sites dominated by subshrub - Artemisia frigida, a preponderant species under drought stress and over-grazing. The biomass of A. frigida explained 51.39% of the variation of monoterpenes' concentrations. a-pinene, beta-pinene and gamma-terpinene dominated in the 10 determined monoterpenes, accounting for 37.72 +/- 2.98%, 14.65 +/- 2.55% and 10.50 +/- 2.37% of the total monoterpenes concentration, respectively. Low isoprene concentrations (<= 3.25 mu g m(-3)) were found and sedge biomass contributed about 51.76% to their spatial variation. alpha-pinene and isoprene emissions at noon were as high as 515.53 +/- 88.34 mu g m(-2) h(-1) and 7606.19 +/- 1073.94 mu g m(-2)h(-1) in A. frigida- and sedge-dominated areas where their biomass were 236.90 g m(-2) and 72.37 g m(-2), respectively. Our results suggested that the expansion of A. frigida and sedge caused by over-grazing and climatic stresses may increase local ambient BVOCs concentration in grassland. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V.
