RMIT大学の研究によれば、気温上昇は湿地の炭素吸収能力を低下させる可能性があります。湿地は炭素を大量に貯蔵し、気候変動の緩和に重要な役割を果たしています。しかし、気温の上昇により、湿地の炭素貯蔵能力が減少し、逆に温室効果ガスの排出源となる恐れがあります。この研究は、湿地の保全と気候変動対策の重要性を強調しています。

Abstract

気温上昇で湿地の炭素吸収源が減少する可能性(Warming temperatures may shrink wetland carbon sinks)

Patchy global data on belowground litter decomposition dynamics limit our capacity to discern the drivers of carbon preservation and storage across inland and coastal wetlands. We performed a global, multiyear study in over 180 wetlands across 28 countries and 8 macroclimates using standardized litter as measures of “recalcitrant” (rooibos tea) and “labile” (green tea) organic matter (OM) decomposition. Freshwater wetlands and tidal marshes had the highest tea mass remaining, indicating a greater potential for carbon preservation in these ecosystems. Recalcitrant OM decomposition increased with elevated temperatures throughout the decay period, e.g., increase from 10 to 20 °C corresponded to a 1.46-fold increase in the recalcitrant OM decay rate constant. The effect of elevated temperature on labile OM breakdown was ecosystem-dependent, with tidally influenced wetlands showing limited effects of temperature compared with freshwater wetlands. Based on climatic projections, by 2050 wetland decay constants will increase by 1.8% for labile and 3.1% for recalcitrant OM. Our study highlights the potential for reduction in belowground OM in coastal and inland wetlands under increased warming, but the extent and direction of this effect at a large scale is dependent on ecosystem and OM characteristics. Understanding local versus global drivers is necessary to resolve ecosystem influences on carbon preservation in wetlands.
