Over the past 17 years, China's vegetation WUE has shown an average value of 1.08g C m-2 mm-1, with an average annual growth rate of 0.003g C m-2 mm-1 a-1. Vegetation WUE is positively correlated with temperature and precipitation in approximately 50.21% and 66.16% of the total area, respectively. Human activities and climate change have contributed 66.75% and 33.25%, respectively, to the increase in vegetation WUE in China over the same period.
In the context of increasing global carbon emissions, and the relative shortage of water resources, research on the relationships between climate change, human activities and the carbon?water coupling response of China?s ecosystems is crucial. Water use efficiency (WUE) is an important indicator reflecting the coupling of ecosystem carbon and water cycles. Based on trend analysis, correlation analysis and multiple regression residual analysis, this paper analyzes the spatiotemporal distributions, change trends, correlations with meteorological factors, changes in different vegetation coverage types, and relative contributions of the main driving factors of China?s vegetation WUE from 2001 to 2017. The results show the following: (1) For the past 17 years, the multiyear average value of vegetation WUE in China is 1.08g C m - 2 mm-1, the average annual growth rate is 0.003g C m - 2 mm-1 a-1. The area with increasing trend of WUE accounts for 59.09% of the total area. (2) The seasonal WUE is highest in autumn, followed by summer, spring and winter. (3) The areas in which vegetation WUE is positively correlated with temperature and precipitation account for approximately 50.21% and 66.16% of the total area, respectively. (4) In terms of the relative annual average value of the WUE, the different vegetation cover types, in descending order, are mixed forests > needleleaf forests > broadleaf forests > shrublands > grasslands > croplands > wetlands > barren lands. (5) Human activities and climate change contributed 66.75% and 33.25%, respectively, to the increase in vegetation WUE in China in the past 17 years. The research results have important scientific significance for clarifying the impacts of climate change and human activities on the carbon?water cycle of the terrestrial ecosystems of China and assessing regional differences in the potential of terrestrial ecosystems to increase carbon sinks.
