Title: Rainfall Process and Nitrogen Input in Three Typical Forests of Jinyun Mountain
Abstract: Evergreen broad-leaved forest( EBF),bamboo forest( BF) and mixed conifer and broadleaved forest( MF) were selected as objects of study on Jinyun Mountain from May to October 2012. The main contents were to analyze the rainfall process and nitrogen input of atmospheric rainfall,throughfall and stemflow. The results showed that: ①During the research period,the total precipitation was 564. 88 mm,and throughfall of EBF,BF and MF were 74. 0%,85. 0% and 71. 6% of rainfall,respectively,and stemflow were EBF( 1. 9%),BF( 10. 3%) and MF( 1. 6%),respectively. The relationship between throughfall,stemflow and atmospheric rainfall could be described by a significant linear equation( P 0. 05),and both throughfall rate and stemflow rate had an obvious logarithmic function relationship with atmospheric rainfall( P 0. 05). ② The concentration of NO-3and NH+ 4of throughfall and stemflow were higher than those of atmospheric rainfall,of which the three typical forests ranked as MF EBF BF. The total inorganic nitrogen input of throughfall and stemflow were EBF( 14. 93 kg·hm-2),BF( 15. 31 kg·hm-2) and MF( 18. 93 kg·hm-2),respectively. ③ There was a significant linear relationship between inorganic nitrogen input and throughfall,stemflow for three typical forest stands( P 0. 05).
