Abstract:With the processes of dynamic eqinlibrium between carbonate rock, warer and CO2 (gas), the carbon cycle occurs in epi-karst systems. The carbon in the cycle includes the solid carbon from carbonate rocks and the gas CO2 from the atmosphere and soil air. The processes and quantity of carbon cycle in karst systems are mainly controlled by three factors, the concentration of the atmospheric and soil air CO2, hydrodynamics and the composihon of carbonate rocks. The 14C results of the epi-karst water show that CO2 in the epi-karst dynamic system mainly comes from soil air CO2 created by the organic carbon. So the carbon cycle brings about a combination between the geochemical cycle of carbon and the biochemical cycle. The discharge and the runoff rate of karst water have a great influence upon the flux of carbon cycle. Because Mg can promote dissolution of carbonate rocks, and the dissolution of dolomite is usually quicker than that of limestone, the carbon modulus absorbed in karst warer in dolomite areas generally is larger than that in limestone areas in southern China. Due to the humid and warm monsoon climate, the carbon cycle is very active in karst areas in southern China. The chemical dynamic processes between carbonate rock, water and CO2(gas) can reach equilibrium in an hour or so after raining. For an epikarst spring system, the spring starts to outflow about 4 hours later after heavy raining, but the dissolved HCO3 concentyation in the spring water is at least 4 times as much as that in the surface warer on bare rocks. The carbon modulus absorbed in karst water changes sensitively with the karst dynamic factors, such as soil organic carbon, hydrodynarnic conditions and the atmospheric temperature. In the summer of 1999, the mean values of carbon modulus at Shuicheng, Maolan, Guilin and Nongla monitoring stations are 39.00, 50.76, 53.04 and 81.72 mg/L respectively, which show that the CO2 sink in humid and warm areas is higher than that in dry and cold areas, that in the forest areas is higher than that in bare rock areas, and that in dolomite areas is higher than that in limestone areas. Four calculation methods show that the calculation result of the CO2 sink in the karst processes in southern China is similar, with a mean value of about 10 million t/a. Driving elemental migration is one of the important functions of the carbon cycle in the epi-karst system in southern China. As a result this process brings about not only a special karst water environment with high concentration of HCO3, Ca2+ (and Mg2+ in dolomite area) and some trace element, but also the formation of the cretaceous soils. And the carbon cycle has also a great influence upon the labile content of elements in the cretaceous soils. On the one hand, with alkaline environments, the labile content of alkaline-earth elements is low in the soils, on the other hand, with the seepage of karst water, the labile contents of some elements in the soil in karst fissures are higher than those in A/ B and B layers of soil profile. The high content of calcium created by karst processes can lead to a higher humus content in the cretaceous soil than that in red soil in non-karst areas, generally with a organic matter of more than 10% in epi-soil. Therefore, the carbon cycle in karst areas in southern China can promote ecological effect. For example, the accumulated biological quantity under the forest environments in karst areas is higher than that in non-karst areas, and the biological accumulated rate of grass in the soil in bare rock areas is also fast. Particularly, the carbon cycle and its driving function to elemental ingration have a great influence upon the peculiarity and the diversity of karst vegetation. As a result there are a lot of peculiar plant species in the karst areas in southern China. Most of the plants are calciphile, and the distribution of the plant species is closely related to geological background. However, the active carbon cycle is also an important cause for the fragile karst environment and ecology.
