Impacts of Climate Change on the Distribution of Larix Spp. and Pinus Sylvestris and Their Climatypes in Siberia

Inter- and intraspecific effects of climate change were assessed for the dominant conifers of Siberia (60–140^∘E and 48–75^∘N): Larix spp. (L. sibirica, L. dahurica, and L. sukaczewii) and Pinus sylvestris . The approach employed a tri-variate (degree-days above 5 ^∘C, degree-days below 0 ^∘C, and a moisture index) estimate of the climatic envelope within which exists the actual ecological distribution of a species and their constituent climatypes (genotypes physiologically attuned to similar environments). Limits of the actual ecological distribution were approximated by reducing the climatic envelope according to effects of permafrost and interspecific competition. Climatypes were mapped within the climatic envelope according to the climatic interval that must separate populations for reasonable assurance of genetic differentiation. This interval was calculated from response functions that related 13-year growth and survival of a species to the difference in climate between the provenance of a climatype and the climate of numerous test sites distributed across Russia. Mapping species' distributions and their climatypes was done for the contemporary climate and for future climates predicted by the HadCM3GGa1 scenario of Hadley Centre. The results showed that if the forests of the future are to reflect the adaptedness of today, the distribution of species will shift and genotypes within species will be redistributed. Some contemporary climatypes are projected to disappear from Siberia while others common elsewhere would evolve. To mitigate these effects, climatypes should be transferred today to the expected future location of their climatic optima, a distance that is likely to approach 700–1200 km for these species.     

20世纪90年代以来《Science》关于全球气候变化研究述评

近年来气候变化引起人们关注。世界许多学者对气候变化开展了广泛研究，已经取得了丰硕成果。为了了解国际上气候变化研究的进展及前沿，作者查阅了《science》于20世纪90年代以来关于气候变化的相关文章400余篇。这些文章的内容涉及地球科学、医学、物理学、微生物学等许多领域。该文主要从地球科学角度归纳总结了全球气候变化与陆地生态系统、气候变化与碳循环、全球气候变化与土地利用方式、气候变化与人类活动等方面的研究，并进行了典型研究成果的透视分析。最后提出了需要进一步研究的建议。

Influences of greenhouse effect on agricultural production in China

An obvious warming in China induced by doubled carbon, dioxide as simulated by the climatic models have been found. It is also noticed that there might be drying or wetting in some parts of China induced by doubled CO2 as simulated by the general circulation models(GCMs). Agricultural productivity mainly depends on the temperature, rainfall and soil moisture in China. The changes of agricultural productivity in the different parts of China induced by doubled CO2 have been estimated in this paper. It is shown that the greenhouse effect might cause increasing production in some parts of China and decreasing production in other parts of China.     

人类活动对黄土高原生态环境及现代气候变化的影响

本文简要阐明人类活动对黄土高原生态环境和现代气候变化的影响。重点分析了黄土高原69个气象台站40年来(1951-1969年)气温、降水变化趋势。结果表明:黄土高原的平均气温从50年代以来不断升高,降水持续减少。升温幅度较大的地区多在干旱区的新兴大、中工业城市。并找出了人口增减对气温影响的关系。     

粤西地区的热带气候资源与区划

粤西热带是我国三大热带区域之一,是热带经济作物、水果和蔗糖生产的重要基地。本文分析了该区的气候资源及其主要气象灾害,结果表明该区光热资源丰富,适宜发展多种热带亚热带经济作物;水、热配合状况好,降水的有效性较高;但台风风害和低温冷害也较严重。为了充分利用气候资源,可将全区划分为北部多雨轻风区、西部多雨大风区、东部偏旱温暖区和南部干热大风区,并论述了各区农业气候资源开发利用情况。     

LONG-TERM AQUATIC HABITAT RESTORATION: MAHOGANY CREEK,NEVADA, AS A CASE STUDY1

ABSTRACT: We compared the recovery from abusive grazing of aquatic habitat due to different range management on two geomorphically similar rangeland streams in northwest Nevada. Managers excluded livestock from the Mahogany Creek watershed from 1976 to 1990 while allowing rotation of rest grazing on its tributary Summer Camp Creek. Bank stability, defined as the lack of apparent bank erosion or deposition, improved through the study period on both streams, but periodic grazing and flooding decreased stability more on Summer Camp Creek than flooding alone on Mahogany Creek. Pool quantity and quality on each stream decreased because of coarse woody debris removal and sediment deposition during a drought. Fine stream bottom sediments decreased five years after the removal of livestock, but sedimentation increased during low flows in both streams below road crossings. Tree cover increased 35 percent at both streams. Thus, recovery of stability and cover and decreased sedimentation are compatible with rotation of rest grazing on Summer Camp Creek. Width/depth ratio and gravel/cobble percent did not change because they are inherently stable in this stream type. Management activities such as coarse woody debris removal limited pool recover and road crossings increased sedimentation.

Pathological tree-ring structures in Siberian juniper (juniperus sibirica burgsd.) and their use for reconstructing extreme climatic events

The results of identification and dating of frost, false, and light rings in the wood of living and dead Siberian juniper plants growing at the upper forest boundary in the Polar Urals were used to determine the incidence of these structures over the past 630 years. Based on the data of instrumental observations on daily air temperature, the dates and rates of temperature decrease in the years of pathological tree ring formation were analyzed. The recurrence and intensity of extreme temperature drops during the growing seasons of the past six centuries were reconstructed. The severest frosts occurred in the summer seasons of 1601, 1783, 1857, 1882, and 1968.
