英文摘要 | The characteristics of soil macropores and water infiltration are closely connected to the growth of plant roots and their root zone environment. However, it is unclear how the root zone environment of oasis farmlands regulates the development of soil macropores and water flow in hyper-arid regions. The objective of this study was to investigate soil macropores and their effect on water flow under irrigated oasis farmlands using a combination of X-ray computed tomography (CT) and dye tracer. It was hypothesized that the integration of CT and dye tracer could clearly reveal preferential flow through biopores and large pores of oasis soils. A helical medical CT scanner was used to quantify more information about soil macropores in the root zone, along with an in situ single-ring dye infiltration experiment to reveal water flow in three different oasis farmlands (piedmont oasis farmland, marginal oasis farmland, and old oasis farmland). Soil macroporosity was 0.44% under crop rows, while soil macroporosity in the interrows was only 0.30% across the oasis farmlands. Biopores contributed 73% of the volume of the total macropores under crop rows. The stable infiltration rate in the interrows was 0.3 mm min(-1), which was significantly (p < 0.05) less than that under crop rows (0.7 mm min(-1)). Water flow under crop rows were mainly transported in biopores and large pores. The contribution of macropores to preferential flow under crop rows was 4.8 times larger than interrows. The integration of CT and dye tracer was a more holistic technique, which adequately revealed that oases had preferential flow affected by biopores and large pores, resulting in higher solute and contaminant transport. Key Points Soil macropores and preferential flow affected by crop roots were investigated in hyper-arid regions. The integration of CT and dye tracer adequately identified preferential flowpaths of oasis soils. Biopores were larger under crop rows than interrows. Preferential flow transported in biopores and large soil pores under crop rows. |
