摘要

Given recent negotiations of the Committee of Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, soil C accumulation related to soil conservation efforts may be counted as C credits in national C balance calculations under the Kyoto Protocol. It has been proposed that in some instances, erosion can establish a dynamic equilibrium that results in a C sink corresponding to ongoing recovery of C in eroded soils combined with ongoing C accumulation in terrestrial sediments. Given this hypothesis, full accounting for erosion and soil conservation in the C budgets of dynamic landscapes may represent a significant challenge due to indirect effects of burial and nutrient dynamics on the balance of plant production and decomposition of soil organic matter (SOM). As a method for evaluating the 'dynamic equilibrium' hypothesis, we examine the burial and availability of eroded C and nutrients using a combination of field data and models. Landslides represent a model system for studying erosional effects on C and N dynamics because they offer the ability to study easily identifiable events representing a known proportion of the landscape. We therefore investigate the C and N balance of pastoral land on soft-rock landscapes in New Zealand that commonly undergo shallow landslides. Soil cores driven to the bedrock interface indicate that 23- and 37-year-old landslides have recovered to -50% and 72% soil C stock, respectively, when compared with cores from uneroded sites on similar slopes and aspects. Locally, this upland soil loss represents the removal of 36 Mg/ha—90 Mg/ha. However, a portion of the eroded C may be retained on land if landslide debris is not fully evacuated by streams, and the eroded C can also become buried in marine environments. To determine whether the net effect of erosion can represent a sink for atmospheric CO_2, we will combine the rate of upland soil C recovery with representations of the proportion of eroded C sequestered in sediments.
