Climate warming has significantly changed the near-surface soil freeze state, significantly impacting terrestrial ecosystems and regional agroforestry production. As Northeast China (NEC) is highly sensitive to climate change, this study introduces the concept of velocity to analyze the spatial pattern of frozen days (F-DAY), onset date of soil freeze (F-ON), offset date of soil freeze (F-OFF), and number of soil freeze/thaw cycles in spring (F-TC) in NEC from 1979 to 2020. We observed that the velocity changes of F-DAY, F-ON, and F-TC in croplands were significantly higher than those in forests (difference > 1 km yr(-1)), with the fastest velocity changes found in the cropland of the Songnen Plain. The highest velocity of FOFF was found in the forests of the Greater Khingan Range. In most study areas (> 60%), the isoline of F-DAY/F-ON/F-OFF/F-TC showed a northward movement. The isoline of F-DAY/F-ON/F-OFF/ F-TC moved in the cold direction in each cropland region (Sanjiang, Songnen, and Liaohe River Plains) and forest regions (Greater Khingan and Lesser Khingan Ranges, and the Changbai Mountains). The results of the quantitative analysis indicate that air temperature (T-A) had a more significant effect on the velocity change of F-DAY and F-ON in cropland, whereas snowpack is the dominant factor in forests. In both forests and croplands, the main factor affecting the velocity of F-OFF was snowpack, and T(A )mainly affected the F-TC. This study is significant for formulating regional climate change countermeasures and maintaining ecological security in cold regions. |
