A field mesocosm experiment with Chinese fir (Cunninghamia lanceolata) seedlings was conducted in Chenda State-Owned Forest Farm, Sanming, Fujian Province. The effects of soil warming (ambient +5 ℃) on specific respiration rates and nonstructural carbohydrate (NSC) concentrations in fine roots were measured by the ingrowth core method, to reveal the belowground responses and the adaptability of Chinese fir to global warming. The results showed that soil warming caused significant changes of fine root NSC in the second year.

A precipitation exclusion experiment was set up in Cunninghamia lanceolata seedling plots in Chenda State-Owned Forest Farm, Sanming, Fujian Province, which included 50% precipi-tation reduction and ambient precipitation (control). Using soil coring and in-growth core me-thods, changes in fine-root functional traits of C. lanceolata seedlings, including fine-root biomass, morphology, stoichiometry, specific root respiration, and nonstructural carbohydrates, were exa-mined after 1 year's precipitation exclusion.

In order to determine how the diameter class length distribution (DCLD) of fine roots of Chinese fir (Cunninghamia lanceolata) would be affected by soil warming, nitrogen addition and their interaction, a factorial experiment of soil warming (ambient, +5 ℃) and nitrogen addition (ambient, +4 and +8 g N·m·a) was carried out in the Chenda State-owned Forest Farm in Sanming, Fujian Province. An expanded extreme value model fitted the DCLD of roots of all the six treatments very well (R=0.97).
