英文摘要 | Earth ' s Critical Zone exhibits remarkable heterogeneity and complexity. Hence, further investigation is required to examine the composition of Earth ' s Critical Zone as well as the diverse eco-hydrological patterns they exhibit under varying climatic and geological circumstances. This exploration should primarily be conducted through the investigation and experiments of the hillslope unit, where the topography and weathered bedrock are representative, with particular emphasis on semi -arid regions where water resources serve as the primary limiting factor. Here, we have determined that the structure of the weathering profile displays systematic variation across the topography and heterogeneous landscape on uninterrupted slopes. Differences in the structure of the subsurface critical zone led to differences in its water storage capacity at the same time. Runoff in alpine shrubs and forests was dominated by subsurface runoff, and grassland was dominated by surface runoff. In the alpine shrub immediately adjacent to the watershed, an estimated quantity of 129 mm of water is stored within the unsaturated zone of the soil, serving as exchange water to replenish moisture in the underlying bedrock. In contrast to alpine shrubs, an estimated quantity of 62.7 mm of water originates from the unsaturated zone of soil and weathered bedrock in the forest. However, approximately 21.1 mm of moisture is unavailable to plants. The soil water storage in grasslands exhibits a decline throughout the growing season, with a subsequent augmentation occurring solely after substantial precipitation events exceeding 20 mm. In wet years, dynamic storage predominantly manifests as groundwater saturation throughout the entire ground and high subsurface runoff. In dry years, the limited runoff response indicates that the catchment's dynamic water storage primarily comprises indirect water storage, which predominantly resides within the soil, saprolite, and weathered rock below the field capacity, subsequently being released into the atmosphere through evapotranspiration. |
