文摘The carbon pools of biomass,littering,and SOC wre studied with regards to carbon cycles in epikarst zone,taking an example of Yaji Karst Experiemnt Site in Guilin.This study was focused on SOC and its lability,SOC decomposition rate,CO 2 regime in the soils. 13 ctracing was used to persua the relation of bicarbonate in karst water to soil carbon.The results indicated sufficient carbon pool in SOC for the driveing CO 2 in the karst system.It was revealed that about 60percent of carbon in epi-karst springs resulted from SOC during spring and summer.Thus,the CO 2,driving the karstification,was not simply due to adsorption of atmospheric CO 2 but due to carbon transfer through the pathway of air-plant-soil-water.The driving force should not be overlooked for the epi-karst formation by soil as an interface of carbon environmental geochemistry.
