  1. The Effect of Priming on Soil Carbon Dynamics: Development and Investigation with CLM4-BeTR Jinyun Tang, W. J. Riley, C. D. Koven, Z. Subin and M. Torn Funded through CSSEF by DOE-BER

  3. CLM4-BeTR:Biogeochemical transport & Reaction

  4. CLM4-BeTR Implementation • Multi-time stepping • Process adaptive • 1D generic tracer transport • Two-layer surface-plant-atmosphere coupling • Multiphase chemistry, fast equilibrium assumption • Explicit tracking of fluxes due to: run-off/on, ice/water phase change, precipitation, dry deposition, ebullition, diffusion s: solid phase g: gas phase w: aqueous phase

  5. Preliminary Model results Single point simulation at Harvard forest

  6. The microbial-cn model DOM microbes PLTR SOM PSOM

  7. Implement the generic microbial-CN model • Microbial groups with different specialties/competitions • Different electron acceptors, e.g. aerobic or anaerobic pathway • Dual status, active or dormant (microbial activity) • Multi-substrate feeding, DOC, DOM • With colonization capability • Step adaptive temporal integration • Fully coupled with plants and atmosphere

  8. Test the priming effect • Hypothesis: More carbon respired than input under favorable conditions Model dynamics: Two microbial communities, compete for DOC and inorganic N (NI), coupled with plants and full CN chemistry

  9. DOC/Ni Punctuated DOC experiment The input was done on Apr.1st, Jun. 1st, Aug. 1stand Oct. 1st in the first model year. All simulations start with identical initial conditions.

  11. Punctuated DOC/Niexperiment Exp 3 Exp 3 0 Exp 4 Exp 4 0 Changes in Microbial biomass Unit: mol C m-3 soil Changes in litter degradation Unit: mol C m-3 soil s-1

  12. Doc movement EXPERIMENT Microbial activity: fraction of active microbes Immobile: no vertical movement of DOC allowed Mobile: DOC is free to move vertically

  13. Summary • CLM4-BeTR is successfully developed for vertically resolved biogeochemistry modeling • Microbial dynamics is critical to improving the CN modeling • The priming effect depends on the dose of substrate/nutrient input • The vertical movement of DOC may provide a subtle way to increase the carbon sequestration • Measurements are need for serious model evaluations (let me know if someone has measurements, we are open for collaborations!)

  14. The end?
