摘要

In the permafrost region near Yakutsk, eastern Siberia, Russia, annualprecipitation (June–May) in 2005–2006 and 2006–2007 exceeded the 26-year(1982–2008) mean of 222±68 mm by 185 mm and 128 mm, respectively,whereas in 2007–2008 the excedent was only 48 mm, well within the range ofvariability. Yellowing and browning of larch (Larix cajanderi Mayr.) trees occurred in anundisturbed forest near Yakutsk in the 2007 summer growing season. Soilwater content at a depth of 0.20 m was measured along a roughly 400 m longline transect running through areas of yellowing and browning larch trees(YBL) and of normal larch trees (NL). In the two years of supranormalprecipitation, soil water content was very high compared to valuesrecorded for the same area in previous studies. For both wet years, the meandegree of saturation (s) was significantly greater in YBL than NL areas,whereas the converse was the case for the gas diffusivity in soil. Thisimplies that rather than mitigating water stress suffered during normalprecipitation years, elevated soil water conditions adversely affected thegrowth of larch trees. Eastern Siberia's taiga forest extends widely intothe permafrost region. Was such supranormal annual precipitation to extendfor more than two years, as might be expected under impending global climatechanges, forest recovery may not be expected and emission of greenhouse gasmight continue in future.
