旅游干扰下五台山不同植被景观区物种多样性特征

利用双向指示种分析方法(Two-way indicator species analysis,TWINSPAN)和6个物种多样性指数,研究了旅游干扰下五台山不同植被景观区物种多样性的特征.结果表明:1)TWINSPAN将所有样地划分为9类植被景观区,从Ⅰ区到Ⅸ区,随着旅游干扰程度的增加,植被景观大致由乔灌草区向灌草区、草本区和居民区方向变化.2)乔木层物种的丰富度和综合多样性随着旅游干扰的减小而趋于增加,但是其均匀度没有表现出明显的规律性.3)灌木层物种的丰富度和综合多样性也随着旅游干扰的减小而趋于增加,至于其均匀度,则呈现出在中度干扰下值最大,干扰很小的地方次之,在重度干扰下则最小.4)草本层物种的丰富度、均匀度和综合多样性指数均在旅游干扰适度的地方达到了最大值,在旅游干扰很小的地方,各种值则次之,在干扰严重的地方为最小.5)从整个植被层物种多样性的角度看,随着旅游干扰程度的减少,物种丰富度指数、均匀度指数和综合多样性指数均呈现趋于增加的趋势.表4参15     

Effects of climate and exurban development on nest predation and predator presence in the southern Appalachian Mountains (USA)

In the eastern United States, land-use and climate change have likely contributed to declines in the abundance of Neotropical migrant birds that occupy forest interiors, but the mechanisms are not well understood. We conducted a nest-predation experiment in southern Appalachian Mountain forests (North Carolina, U.S.A.) during the 2009 and 2010 breeding seasons to determine the effects of exurban development and temperature on predator presence and the average number of days until eggs in an artificial nest were disturbed by predators. We baited artificial nests with quail (Excalfactoria chinensi) eggs and monitored them for 18 days. We used clay eggs, track plates, and motion-triggered cameras to detect and identify nest predators. The average number of days a nest was undisturbed decreased as mean temperature increased and, to a lesser extent, as the density of buildings increased. Nests on the ground were more often depredated than those in trees, likely due to increased predation by opossum (Didelphis virginiana) and other carnivores. Raccoons (Procyon lotor), opossums, corvids (Corvus brachyrhynchos and Cyanocitta cristata), chipmunks (Tamias striatus), black bears (Ursus americanus), and domestic cats (Felis catus) were the most commonly detected predators. Presence of these predators did not vary as a function of mean temperature. Domestic cats and corvids were detected more frequently in plots with high rather than low densities of buildings. Forest-interior specialists and Neotropical migrants often nest in cool, high-elevation areas with low housing density. These bird species, especially those that nest on the ground, may be most vulnerable to increased nest predation if temperature and exurban development increase at higher elevations as anticipated.     

基于GIS的祁连山植被NDVI对气温降水的旬响应分析

利用祁连山地区SPOTVGT-NDVI数据和气象站点旬平均气温、降水资料,运用最大化合成、趋势线分析和相关分析方法分析了祁连山植被的时空变化趋势,并从旬时间尺度上分析了祁连山植被对气温和降水的响应特征。结果表明:近10年来,祁连山年最大化植被NDVI增加了3.1%,植被改善、无变化和退化的面积分别占总面积的70.21%、21.44%和8.35%。祁连山植被NDVI对气温变化的响应大于降水,对气温和降水变化的最大响应滞后都为2旬左右。秋季植被NDVI对气温和降水变化响应最大,夏季植被NDVI对气温和降水响应的滞后期长于春季和秋季。祁连山植被NDVI对气温和降水变化的旬最大响应表现为中段大于东段和西段,NDVI对气温和降水变化的最大响应滞后期呈现出西段中段东段的空间分布特征。     

长白山北坡林线处岳桦年轮年表及其与气候的关系

运用相关函数及响应分析等树木年轮气候学方法,研究了长白山北坡林线处岳桦(Betula ermanii)径向生长及其与气候的关系.结果表明,林线处岳桦年轮宽度年表具有较强的气候敏感性.其径向生长与上年7月和当年3月的温度显著负相关(P<0.05),与上年9月和当年7月的温度显著正相关;同时与上年6月降水量显著正相关.与季节性气候因子的响应分析表明,岳桦径向生长与当年春季(1～3月)和当年生长季前(4、5月)的平均温度呈显著负相关,与当年生长季前的平均最高温度显著正相关,与降水量的相关关系不显著.利用多元逐步回归方法模拟了岳桦年轮宽度指数与气候因子间的关系,并据此预测在温度和降水增加的背景下,林线处岳桦径向生长将降低14.8%.     

基于InVEST模型的伏牛山地区生态系统碳储量时空变化模拟

在生态文明建设高质量的发展环境下,探究国土空间规划视角下土地利用合理规划与碳减排关系有重大现实意义.山地生态系统作为自然、社会和经济的综合生态系统,对区域生态环境质量提高和可持续发展具有重要影响.以河南省伏牛山区为研究对象,采用InVEST与CA-Markov模型预测2000～2030年多情景下伏牛山生态系统碳储量的时空分布差异.结果表明：(1) 2000～2020年,伏牛山地耕地和林地大面积减少,水域和建设用地增加.自然增长情景下耕地持续减少;耕地保护情境下耕地面积减少速度得到有效缓解;生态保护情景下,林地草地面积得到了有效保护.(2) 2000～2020年,伏牛山地生态系统碳储量减少2.62×106 t;自然增长情景下,生态系统碳储量持续减少;耕地保护情景稍有缓解;生态保护措施有效缓解了碳损失.(3)碳储量随海拔升高呈驼峰状变化,随着坡度升高而呈现增加的趋势.因此,在未来伏牛山地区国土空间规划中,可综合考虑生态保护与耕地保护情景,在增加碳储量的同时也保证了粮食生产.     

Is tourism damaging ecosystems in the Andes? Current knowledge and an agenda for future research

Despite the popularity of tourism and recreation in the Andes in South America and the regions conservation value, there is limited research on the ecological impacts of these types of anthropogenic use. Using a systematic quantitative literature review method, we found 47 recreation ecology studies from the Andes, 25 of which used an experimental design. Most of these were from the Southern Andes in Argentina (13 studies) or Chile (eight studies) with only four studies from the Northern Andes. These studies documented a range of impacts on vegetation, birds and mammals; including changes in plant species richness, composition and vegetation cover and the tolerance of wildlife of visitor use. There was little research on the impacts of visitors on soils and aquatic systems and for some ecoregions in the Andes. We identify research priorities across the region that will enhance management strategies to minimise visitor impacts in Andean ecosystems.

湖南南岭草地植被类型的数量分类、排序及其合理利用

湖南南岭山区的地带性植被是常绿阔叶林,由于不合理的利用,森林遭受严重破坏而出现了大面积的草山,面积约1497.2万亩(99.8万ha),占土地总面积的1/4强。本文运用二元指示种分析TWINSPAN和无倾向对应分析DCA的数学方法对草地植被进行分类与排序。利用48个样方和150个植物种的资料进行计算,在第4级水平上划分出12个主要草地植被类型,其中将近似的类型合并成10个类型。在第1级水平上明显地将海拔1000m以上的与600m以下的分成2大组;在其它水平上则根据其他不同生态因子(岩性、pH值等)将出现的区别种逐级分开。所得结果与定性分类基本相同,说明该方法是适用于亚热带草地分类的。 不同类型在开发利用上有很大差异,高海拔的植被类型应以造林或封山育林为主,并可适当发展木本药材;在平缓的山原上虽可开辟人工草地发展畜牧业,但必须要防止水土流失,坡度在25。以上的应封育;15—20°的地方可以发展林业与畜牧业;在海拔300—600m的丘陵岗地类型上可以发展薪炭林、经济林;在海拔300m以下,水源充足的地方可以发展果木林(柑桔等),缓坡丘陵地类型可建立人工草地,但应与林业相结合,在农区可进行粮草轮作。总之,应该建立人工生态系统,以提高经济效益和生态效益。
