项目摘要

The TundraTime project will address climate change impacts in tundra ecosystems including how warming is shifting tundra plant phenology - the timing of life events such as bud burst or flowering - and productivity - the increase in plant growth and biomass over time. We will answer the fundamental research question of whether climate warming is leading to longer tundra growing seasons and thus increasing plant productivity in the Arctic, with important implications for carbon cycling and wildlife. Critical knowledge gaps in the field of global change ecology are what role the high latitudes will play in the global carbon cycle and how Arctic food webs will be restructured in the future with accelerated warming. A critical unknown is whether shifting plant phenology is altering tundra carbon cycling and wildlife habitats. Projections of climate feedbacks from high-latitude ecosystems remain uncertain as we do not yet know if carbon losses from warming soils will be offset by increases in tundra productivity. Tundra plant responses to warming could be key for understanding the fate of wildlife populations in a rapidly changing Arctic. Forty years of satellite and field observations have revealed widespread changes in the tundra's surface that protects large stocks of frozen carbon below. Field studies indicate that plants are coming into leaf earlier in spring, bare ground is becoming vegetated, and plants are now growing taller. While there is scientific consensus that climate change is reshaping Arctic ecosystems, great uncertainty persists about what the greening observed from space means in terms of change on-the-ground.The TundraTime project will answer the fundamental research questions of whether climate warming is leading to longer periods of plant growth and increases in plant productivity in the Arctic. We will test specific hypotheses of whether tundra ecosystems are experiencing: A) increases in productivity, B) shifts in phenology and C) asynchrony of above- and below-ground plant growth. To explore these questions, we will integrate high-resolution drone and time-lapse camera imagery with satellite and in-situ data from 12 focal Arctic research sites. Our findings will inform biome-wide projections of tundra vegetation change and global-scale predictions of climate feedbacks to unprecedented rates of warming.If tundra plant productivity is responding directly to the warmer and longer Arctic growing seasons then tundra productivity will trap more carbon in tundra ecosystems and restructure wildlife habitats. However, if instead tundra plant growing seasons are shifting earlier, then projections of increases in tundra vegetation with warming may be overestimates and earlier timing of key forage could alter migratory behaviour and ultimately wildlife populations. And, if the above- and below-ground responses of tundra plants are asynchronous, plant growth in the now extended snow-free autumns could instead be occurring below ground, which would overturn how satellite data and Earth-system models estimate plant productivity and carbon storage in warming tundra ecosystems. The TundraTime project will test the drivers of Arctic greening by resolving the uncertainty around what role shifting plant phenology plays in the increased tundra productivity with warming. This research will bridge critical scale gaps to resolve the uncertainty between satellite and in-situ observations of changes in the timing of plant growth with accelerating climate warming.
TundraTime 项目将解决气候变化对苔原生态系统的影响,包括变暖如何改变苔原植物物候(生命事件的时间,如发芽或开花)和生产力(植物生长和生物量随着时间的推移而增加)。我们将回答气候变暖是否会导致苔原生长季节延长从而提高北极植物生产力这一基本研究问题,这对碳循环和野生动物具有重要影响。全球变化生态学领域的关键知识差距是高纬度地区在全球碳循环中将发挥什么作用,以及未来随着气候变暖加速,北极食物网将如何重组。一个关键的未知因素是植物物候的变化是否正在改变苔原碳循环和野生动物栖息地。对高纬度生态系统气候反馈的预测仍然不确定,因为我们还不知道土壤变暖造成的碳损失是否会被苔原生产力的提高所抵消。苔原植物对变暖的反应可能是了解快速变化的北极野生动物种群命运的关键。四十年的卫星和实地观测揭示了苔原表面的广泛变化,保护了下面的大量冻结碳。实地研究表明,春天植物长叶较早,裸露的地面开始长出植被,而且植物现在长得更高。虽然科学界一致认为气候变化正在重塑北极生态系统,但从太空观察到的绿化对地面变化意味着什么仍然存在很大的不确定性。TundraTime项目将回答气候变暖是否导致北极植物生长周期延长和植物生产力增加等基本研究问题。我们将测试苔原生态系统是否正在经历以下具体假设:A)生产力提高,B)物候变化以及C)地上和地下植物生长的异步。为了探索这些问题,我们将把高分辨率无人机和延时相机图像与来自 12 个北极重点研究地点的卫星和现场数据相结合。我们的研究结果将为整个生物群落的苔原植被变化预测和全球范围内气候对前所未有的变暖速度反馈的预测提供信息。如果苔原植物生产力直接响应北极变暖和更长的生长季节,那么苔原生产力将在苔原生态系统中捕获更多的碳并重建野生动物栖息地。然而,如果苔原植物生长季节提前,那么对苔原植被随气候变暖而增加的预测可能会被高估,而关键饲料的提前获取可能会改变迁徙行为,并最终改变野生动物种群。而且,如果苔原植物的地上和地下反应是异步的,那么在现在延长的无雪秋季中,植物的生长可能会发生在地下,这将颠覆卫星数据和地球系统模型对变暖苔原生态系统中植物生产力和碳储存的估计。 TundraTime 项目将通过解决植物物候变化在气候变暖导致苔原生产力增加中所起的作用的不确定性来测试北极绿化的驱动因素。这项研究将弥合关键尺度差距,以解决卫星和现场观测之间的不确定性,即随着气候变暖加速,植物生长时间的变化。
