景观空间异质性对生态系统服务形成与供给的影响

景观空间异质性与生态系统服务的关系极为密切,适当调整景观空间异质性有助于生态系统服务的持续形成与稳定供给。研究景观空间异质性和生态系统服务形成与供给之间的相互影响作用及响应机制具有重要的理论与现实意义,是保护生物多样性、管理生态系统服务与优化景观空间配置的基础。现有研究大多在不同尺度上探讨了景观格局与生态过程或生态系统服务间的相互影响关系,而缺乏景观格局-生态过程-生态系统服务三者间有效联结等方面的研究。景观空间异质性是怎样直接或间接地作用于生态系统服务形成与供给的,目前还没有一个较为明确的解释。因此,通过分析国内外文献,回顾了景观格局或景观空间异质性与生态系统服务之间关系的研究进展、研究内容和研究方法;从景观组成、景观构型的变化入手,讨论了景观空间异质性对生态系统服务形成与供给的影响及其强度,并认为景观组成异质性变化能够直接影响生态系统服务,而景观构型异质性变化会通过改变生态过程而间接影响生态系统服务;阐述了景观空间异质性在影响生态系统服务形成与供给的同时,也使生态系统服务在空间上产生了异质性分布,并从自然因素和人为因素两个方面对其进行解释;强调了尺度问题在景观空间异质性与生态系统服务研究中的重要性;最后,明确了对生态系统服务形成与供给的景观空间异质性影响研究不仅有助于生态系统服务的维持与调节,也能更深层次地揭示其中的生态学意义。

景观格局连通度与景观功能联系程度息息相关,不论维持生态稳定或促进城市社会经济发展,都必须提升景观结构的空间联系。选择台湾地区乌溪流域典型区为研究区,面对台湾地区城市发展所造成的生态环境品质降低及自然栖息地破碎化等问题,期望通过生态功能网络构建,维护生态稳定及制约建成区的无序蔓延。基于景观功能与结构相互作用理论,景观功能的空间强度受景观类型、空间结构及相对距离的影响而产生差异,利用耗费距离模型,结合景观类型、景观格局特征、景观功能相互作用以及生态系统服务功能价值等分析方法,分析了台湾地区乌溪流域典型区的生态功能空间差异,进而基于最小累积耗费算法构建生态廊道,提出景观格局优化方案,以作为台湾地区未来景观生态建设的参考。     

三维城市景观生态研究

城市景观元素的三维分析是城市景观研究发展的重要趋势之一。城市形态的结构特征与功能的空间作用不仅体现在二维空间中,同时在三维向度上表现出城市社会经济发展态势与空间演变的相互作用,因此在城市空间格局、过程与功能的讨论中,不能局限于二维平面。首先由三维视角提出城市景观格局及功能网络特征,并结合对航空摄影测量、卫星遥测、机载激光扫描等三维信息获取方法的认识,介绍目前城市景观三维信息提取的相关方法;其次,在三维城市景观生态研究内容方面,重点介绍城市景观要素提取、格局特征及其动态变化、生态环境效应和城市景观功能等相关研究,探讨城市内部的三维建成景观以及绿地景观要素提取与应用,并在传统景观格局分析方法基础上,提出了三维城市景观格局特征测量方法、动态变化监测方法以及动态模拟等相关内容,进一步对三维城市景观在生物多样性、局部气候变化等生态环境效应方面的研究进行了归纳总结;最后借助构建三维景观功能网络的思路,以作为三维城市景观功能优化研究的切入点。     

基于“源-汇”生态过程的景观格局识别方法——景观空间负荷对比指数

正确理解景观格局与生态过程的关系是进一步深化景观生态学研究的关键,但是由于景观格局和生态过程涉及到不同的研究尺度,并且随着尺度的变化而变化,加上面状生态过程监测数据无法直接获得,导致很难定量描述景观格局与生态过程之间的关系。本文以非点源污染作为研究的典型生态过程,通过分析不同景观类型及其空间分布格局在非点源污染形成过程中的地位和作用,借用洛伦兹曲线的理论,从距离、相对高度和坡度三个方面建立了不受尺度限制的景观格局评价模型——景观空间负荷对比指数。该指数可以较好地将具有面状特性的景观格局与点状监测数据有机地结合在一起,使定量研究流域景观格局与生态过程的关系成为可能。该评价模型的特点有以下几个：①不受空间尺度的限制,具有跨尺度的功能;②适宜于环境背景(降雨和土壤等)相似的地区;③景观空间负荷对比指数具有相对比较意义,其值越大,表示该类景观空间格局对流域出口监测点的贡献越大,反之越小;④景观空间负荷对比指数不能用来预测流域出口监测点非点源污染或水土流失的值,但是可以通过比较计算不同流域景观空间负荷对比指数,来判断流域发生养分(水土)流失的危险性。     

景观生态学与退化生态系统恢复

退化生态系统的恢复是一项艰巨任务,它需要考虑到所要恢复的退化生态系统的结构,多样性和其动态的整体性和长期性。现在对于退化生态系统恢复研究已经要使生态学家们关注受损生态系统的理论和实际问题。退化生态系统恢复所面临的挑战是理解和利用生态演替理论来完成并加速恢复进程。恢复的主要目标是建立一个自维持的,由不同的群落或生态系统组成的能够满足不同需要如生物保护和粮食生产需要的景观。景观生态学关注于大的空间尺度的生态学问题。景观生态学研究方法可以为退化生态系统恢复实践提供指导。在解决退化生态系统的恢复问题时,景观生态学的方法在理论和实践上是有效的。景观生态学中的核心概念和其一般原理斑块形状、生态系统间相互作用、镶嵌系列等都同退化生态系统的恢复有着密切的关系。如恢复地点的选择和适当的恢复要素的空间配置。在评价退化生态系统的恢复是否取得成功,利用景观生态学也具有重要的意义。景观生态学理论如景观格局与景观异质性理论,干扰理论和尺度理论都能够指导退化生态系统的恢复实践。同样地,退化生态系统的恢复可以为景观生态学的研究提供非常恰当的实验场。寓景观生态学思想于退化生态系统恢复过程是一种新的有效途径。     

Riverine landscapes: taking landscape ecology into the water

1. Landscape ecology deals with the influence of spatial pattern on ecological processes. It considers the ecological consequences of where things are located in space, where they are relative to other things, and how these relationships and their consequences are contingent on the characteristics of the surrounding landscape mosaic at multiple scales in time and space. Traditionally, landscape ecologists have focused their attention on terrestrial ecosystems, and rivers and streams have been considered either as elements of landscape mosaics or as units that are linked to the terrestrial landscape by flows across boundaries or ecotones. Less often, the heterogeneity that exists within a river or stream has been viewed as a `riverscape' in its own right.
2. Landscape ecology can be unified about six central themes: (1) patches differ in quality (2) patch boundaries affect flows, (3) patch context matters, (4) connectivity is critical, (5) organisms are important, and (6) the importance of scale. Although riverine systems differ from terrestrial systems by virtue of the strong physical force of hydrology and the inherent connectivity provided by water flow, all of these themes apply equally to aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems, and to the linkages between the two.
3. Landscape ecology therefore has important insights to offer to the study of riverine ecosystems, but these systems may also provide excellent opportunities for developing and testing landscape ecological theory. The principles and approaches of landscape ecology should be extended to include freshwater systems; it is time to take the `land' out of landscape ecology.     

景观空间异质性及城市化关联——以江苏省沿江地区为例

空间异质性是揭示地理现象空间分异规律的重要标志.基于高分辨率卫星遥感影像数据,利用景观生态指数和统计学方法,构建景观空间异质性综合模型,定量测度了江苏省沿江地区景观空间异质性特征及城市化关联,并基于二者的相关性将研究区域划分为6个异质性梯度区,提出了应对城市化干扰的景观空间协调对策.结果表明:景观空间异质性综合模型是对景观斑块结构、形态、数量3个组分特征的反映,是揭示景观连通性、稳定性和破碎化的重要依据;景观空间异质性与3个城市化参数之间存在显著的正相关,城镇空间扩张模式和城镇人口的集聚强度对景观空间异质性影响较大;景观空间异质性梯度分异与区域开发强度、开发时序存在显著的耦合关系;同时,面对城市化的干扰,应该实施保护生态景观空间、减少建设空间与其它景观的接触概率和实施差别化的城市化战略等政策协调城市化发展与景观生态保护之间的矛盾.

Changes in patch mosaics and vegetation structure of rural forested landscapes under shifting human impacts in South Korea

Landscape change in rural ecosystems is a major global issue because they are an important ecological and socio-cultural resource. The aim of this study was to demonstrate the driving forces behind landscape changes. Changes in the patterns and processes of landscape mosaics and vegetation community in two rural areas (Teokdong-ri, TD and Teokseong-ri, TS) in Korea were studied between 1988 and 2002. Quantitative data of vegetation community, landscape mosaics, and local statistics of the two study areas were analyzed. Agricultural efficiency increased even decreasing household population and the agricultural area. In both areas, as the human dependence on natural resources decreased, the patterns and processes of landscape mosaics and forest structure were changed due to changing human impacts on land use. Owing to the abandonment of forest management for 14 years, the spatial heterogeneity of TD significantly increased more than that of TS. In detrended correspondence analysis ordination, floristic compositions of forest patches of two areas were unevenly located on the ordination axes. Pinus densiflora communities of both areas in 1988 were separately located in 2002 as two directions according to management intensity. The species composition of P. densiflora in one direction of 1988 became similar to those of Quercus forests in 2002. This may be because species composition of P. densiflora has been influenced due to changed habitat environments. Finally, we concluded that the development of forest communities and vegetation succession predicted the spatial pattern of future landscape mosaics and due to the vegetation dynamics of rural ecosystems in Korea.Nomenclature: Miyawaki et al. (1994), Lee (1993), and Lee (1998) for identifying plant species.     

Elephant response to spatial heterogeneity in a savanna landscape of northern Tanzania

Landscape heterogeneity, namely the variation of a landscape property across space and time, can influence the distribution of a species and its abundance. Quantifying landscape heterogeneity is important for the management of semi‐natural areas through predicting species response to landscape changes, such as habitat fragmentation. In this paper, we tested whether the change in spatial heterogeneity of the vegetation cover due to farming expansion affected the distribution of the African elephant in the Tarangire‐Manyara ecosystem, northern Tanzania. Spatial heterogeneity (based on the normalized difference vegetation index) was characterized at multiple spatial scales using the wavelet transform and the intensity‐dominant scale method. Elephant distribution was estimated from time‐series aerial surveys using a kernel density function. The intensity, which relates to the contrast in vegetation cover, quantified the maximum variation in NDVI across multiple spatial scales, whereas the dominant scale, which represents the scale at which this maximum variation occurs, identified the dominant inter‐patches distance, i.e. the size of dominant landscape features. We related the dominant scale of spatial heterogeneity to the probability of elephant occurrence in order to identify: 1) the scale that maximizes elephant occurrence, and 2) its change between 1988 and 2001. Neither the dominant scale and intensity of spatial heterogeneity, nor the probability of the elephant occurrence changed significantly between 1988 and 2001. The spatial scale maximizing elephant occurrence remained constant at 7000 to 8000 m during each wet season. Compared to the findings of a recent, similar study in Zimbabwe, our results suggest that the change in the dominant scale was relatively small in Tarangire‐Manyara ecosystem and well within the critical threshold for elephant persistence. The method is a useful tool for monitoring ecosystems and their properties.

景观生态恢复与重建是区域生态安全格局构建的关键途径

生态恢复与重建是跨尺度、多等级的问题,其主要表现层次应是生态系统（生物群落）、景观,甚至区域,而不能仅仅局限于生态系统。景观的恢复与重建是针对景观退化而言,景观退化从表现形式上可分为景观结构退化与景观功能退化。景观结构退化即景观破碎化,是指景观中各生态系统之间的各种功能联系断裂或连接度(connectivity)减少的现象;而鲜受重视的景观聚集（aggregation）在很多情况下同样具有造成景观退化的负面效应。景观功能退化是指与前一状态相比,由于景观异质性的改变导致景观的稳定性与服务功能等的衰退现象。景观恢复是指恢复原生生态系统间被人类活动终止或破坏的相互联系;景观生态建设应以景观单元空间结构的调整和重新构建为基本手段,包括调整原有的景观格局,引进新的景观组分等,以改善受胁或受损生态系统的功能,提高其基本生产力和稳定性,将人类活动对于景观演化的影响导入良性循环。二者的综合,统称为景观生态恢复与重建,是构建安全的区域生态格局的关键途径。其目标是建立一种由结构合理、功能高效、关系协调的模式生态系统（model ecosystem）组成的模式景观（model landscape）,以实现生态系统健康、生态格局安全和景观服务功能持续,以3S(RS,GPS,GIS)技术为支撑的GAP(ageographic approach to protect biological diversity)分析将为大尺度景观恢复的诊断、评价、规划提供重要的手段。景观中某些关键性点、位置或关系的破坏对整个生态安全具有毁灭性的后果,研究景观层次上的生态恢复模式及恢复技术、选择恢复的关键位置、构筑生态安全格局已成为景观生态学家关注的焦点。     

The spatial distribution of birds and carabid beetles in pine plantation forests: the role of landscape composition and structure

Aim To evaluate the joint and independent effects of spatial location, landscape composition and landscape structure on the distribution patterns of bird and carabid beetle assemblages in a mosaic landscape dominated by pine plantation forests. Location A continuous 3000‐ha landscape mosaic with native maritime pine Pinus pinaster plantations of different ages, deciduous woodlands and open habitats, located in the Landes de Gascogne forest of south‐western France. Methods We sampled breeding birds by 20‐min point counts and carabid beetles by pitfall trapping using a systematic grid sampling of 200 points every 400 m over the whole landscape. Explanatory variables were composed of three data sets derived from GIS habitat mapping: (1) spatial variables (polynomial terms of geographical coordinates of samples), (2) landscape composition as the percentage cover of the six main habitats, and (3) landscape structure metrics including indices of fragmentation and spatial heterogeneity. We used canonical correspondence analysis with variance partitioning to evaluate the joint and independent effects of the three sets of variables on the ordination of species assemblages. Moran's I correlograms and Mantel tests were used to assess for spatial structure in species distribution and relationships with separate landscape attributes. Results Landscape composition was the main factor explaining the distribution patterns of birds and carabids at the mesoscale of 400 × 400 m. Independent effects of spatial variables and landscape structure were still significant for bird assemblages once landscape composition was controlled for, but not for carabid assemblages. Spatial distributions of birds and carabids were primarily influenced by the amount of heathlands, young pine plantations, herbaceous firebreaks and deciduous woodlands. Deciduous woodland species had positive responses to edge density, while open habitat species were positively associated with mean patch area. Main conclusions Forest birds were favoured by an increase in deciduous woodland cover and landscape heterogeneity, but there was no evidence for a similar effect on carabid beetles. Fragmentation of open habitats negatively affected both early‐successional birds and carabids, specialist species being restricted to large heathlands and young plantations. Several birds of conservation concern were associated with mosaics of woodlands and grasslands, especially meadows and firebreaks. Conserving biodiversity in mosaic plantation landscapes could be achieved by the maintenance of a significant amount of early‐successional habitats and deciduous woodland patches within a conifer plantation matrix.
