随着温室气体驱动的气候变化的进展,全球能源需求正在增加,这使得可再生能源对未来可持续的电力供应至关重要。陆基风能和太阳能发电技术正在迅速发展,但我们对它们对托管生态系统中生物碳循环的操作影响的了解有限。风力涡轮机和光伏电池板可以显著改变当地的地面气候,其幅度可能会影响控制碳动态的基本植物-土壤过程。我们认为,了解地面小气候变化对这些现象的可能影响,对于减少真实可再生能源碳成本的不确定性和最大限度地产生有益影响至关重要。在这篇观点文章中,我们考察了这些陆基可再生能源的小气候效应改变植物-土壤碳循环的可能性,假设了可能的影响,并确定了未来碳研究的关键知识缺口。
Global energy demand is increasing as greenhouse gas driven climate change progresses, making renewable energy sources critical to future sustainable power provision. Land-based wind and solar electricity generation technologies are rapidly expanding, yet our understanding of their operational effects on biological carbon cycling in hosting ecosystems is limited. Wind turbines and photovoltaic panels can significantly change local ground-level climate by a magnitude that could affect the fundamental plant–soil processes that govern carbon dynamics. We believe that understanding the possible effects of changes in ground-level microclimates on these phenomena is crucial to reducing uncertainty of the true renewable energy carbon cost and to maximize beneficial effects. In this Opinions article, we examine the potential for the microclimatic effects of these land-based renewable energy sources to alter plant–soil carbon cycling, hypothesize likely effects and identify critical knowledge gaps for future carbon research.
