陕西洛河流域不同生境蝗虫的群落结构

应用种-多度分布模型、多样性指数、相似性分析、主成分(PCA)分析及多元逐步回归等方法比较了洛河流域不同生境的蝗虫群落结构。结果显示:洛河流域各生境的蝗虫分布基本上服从Preston对数正态分布,其中以森林拟合的最好。各多样性指数的变化趋势均为森林>森林草原>河滩和农田>典型草原。在相似性分析中,典型草原、森林草原和森林这3种生境相似性很高,而河滩和农田则是完全不同的另一种生境。对各生境植被因素和蝗虫群落所进行的主成分分析,结果非常理想,两维主成分的累计方差贡献率分别达到了92.558%和78.566%。通过多元逐步回归发现,影响蝗虫种类和数量变化的植被因有草本植物高度多样性、树木盖度、豆科优势度、禾本科优势度和其他科优势度等。     

南泥湾片段森林蝗虫群落多样性比较

应用多样性指数、排序和多元逐步回归分析方法比较了南泥湾片断化森林的蝗虫群落结构,并进行了环境因素的解释。结果显示：在南泥湾,树木破坏不严重的片断化森林,随森林面积的减小,林缘草层蝗虫种类、多样性指数和均匀度指数差异不大;林中草层蝗虫密度、多样性指数和均匀度指数减小。在面积小、树木破坏严重、植被结构发生明显改变的片断森林林中草层,相对于树木破坏不严重的片断化森林,蝗虫的密度、多样性指数和均匀度指数明显增大;而林缘草层蝗虫的密度和群落优势度指数上升,多样性指数和均匀度指数下降。以主分量分析方法可明显将林中草层蝗虫群落分为森林破坏严重和不严重两种类型。通过多元逐步回归分析发现,影响片断化森林蝗虫群落结构和多样性的主要因素有片断森林面积、森林植被结构的复杂性、食料植物的多少等几个方面。

不同放牧强度下的内蒙古草原蝗虫群落动态

本文研究了内蒙古草原蝗虫群落在不同放牧强度下的动态变化。植物和蝗虫的取样涉及3种植物群落类型。每一种群落类型又根据放牧强度的不同,划分为5个放牧梯度。随着放牧强度的增加,蝗虫群落的组成和结构均发生了明显的变化。使用贴近度分析及择近原则的方法,阐明了蝗虫种的优势度变化及替代种的替代次序。通过灰色关联及系统聚类分析方法的结合,分析了11个蝗虫种对不同放牧强度的反应。对应性分析和多元逐步回归分析说明,蝗虫群落的变化是与某些植被因子和土壤因子密切相关,特别是植物种类数、生物量、高度以及土壤硬度和含水量等。某些蝗虫种的生态指示意义也在文中进行了讨论。

陕西延安北洛河流域蝗虫群落多样性研究

为了寻求有害蝗虫的防治对策,深入研究蝗虫生物多样性,用多样性指数、相似性分析等方法比较分析了延安北洛河流域不同生境中蝗虫群落组成。结果表明:草地中占有的属种数量均最高,灌草丛和农田中蝗虫的科属种都相对较低。不同生境蝗虫多样性指数的排列顺序为草地>河滩>灌草丛>农田,草地的多样性指数最高,农田的多样性指数最低。丰富度指数的变化趋势与多样性指数一致,而优势度指数却恰好与二者的顺序相反。在相似性分析中,草地和河滩相似性系数最大,说明草地和河滩这两种生境蝗虫种类组成的相似性较大,具有更多的共同种,从而可以推知草地和河滩的生境条件有一定的相似性,而农田和草地是两种完全不同的生境。

Weather variation and trophic interaction strength: sorting the signal from the noise

Weather can have important consequences for the structure and function of ecological communities by substantially altering the nature and strength of species interactions. We examined the role of intra- and inter-annual weather variability on species interactions in a seasonal old-field community consisting of spider predators, grasshopper herbivores, and grass and herb plants. We experimentally varied the number of trophic levels for 2 consecutive years and tested for inter-annual variation in trophic abundances. Grasshopper emergence varied between years to the extent that the second growing season was 20% shorter than the first one. However, the damage grasshoppers inflicted on plants was greater in the second, shorter growing season. This inter-annual variation in plant abundance could be explained using the foraging-predation risk trade-off displayed by grasshoppers combined with their survival trajectory. Decreased grasshopper survival not only reduced the damage inflicted on plants, it weakened the strength of indirect effects of spiders on grass and herb plants. The most influential abiotic factor affecting grasshopper survival was precipitation. We found a negative association between grasshopper survival and the total yearly precipitation. A finer scale analysis, however, showed that different precipitation modalities, namely, number of rainy days and average precipitation per day, had opposing effects on grasshopper survival, which were inconsistent between years. Furthermore, our results suggest that small changes in these factors should result in changes of up to several orders of magnitude in the mortality rate of grasshoppers. We thus conclude that in this system the foraging-predation risk trade-off displayed by grasshoppers combined with their survival trajectory and relevant weather variability should be incorporated in analytical theory, whose goal is to predict community dynamics.     

Influence of a large late summer precipitation event on food limitation and grasshopper population dynamics in a northern Great Plains grassland

The complex interplay between grasshoppers, weather conditions, and plants that cause fluctuations in grasshopper populations remains poorly understood, and little is known about the ecological processes that generate grasshopper outbreaks. Grasshopper populations respond to interacting extrinsic and intrinsic factors, with yearly and decadal weather patterns and the timing of precipitation all potentially important. The effects of initial and increasing grasshopper densities on grasshopper survival and reproductive correlates were examined at a northern mixed-grass prairie site through manipulations of grasshopper densities inside 10-m2 cages. High-quality grass growth occurred after a 9.1-cm mid-August rain. Reduced proportional survival was apparent in the two higher density treatments before the rain, indicative of food-limited density-dependent mortality. However, the large late summer rainfall event mediated the effects of exploitative competition on demographic characteristics because of the high-quality vegetation growth. This led to weaker effects of food limitation on survival and reproduction at the end of the experiment. The results indicate a direct link between weather variation, resource quality and grasshopper population dynamics led to a severe grasshopper outbreak and show that infrequent large precipitation events can have significant effects on population dynamics. Additional research is needed to examine the importance of infrequent large precipitation events on grasshopper population dynamics in grassland ecosystems.

Climate Signals from Tree Ring Chronologies of the Upper and Lower Treelines in the Dulan Region of the Northeastern Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau

The radial growth of trees In mountainous areas is subject to environmental conditions associated with changes In elevation. To assess the sensitivity of tree-ring growth to climate variation over a wide range of elevations, we compared the chronological characteristics of Sabina przewalskii Kom. and their relationships with climatic variables at the upper and lower treellnes In the Dulan region of the northeastern Qlnghal-Tlbetan Plateau. It was found that the radial growth in this region was controlled primarily by precipitation in late spring and early summer （from May to June）. In addition, a higher temperature from April to June could Intensify drought stress and lead to narrow tree rings. The significant similarity In climate-tree growth relationships at both the upper and lower treellnes Indicated that tree rings of S. przewalskU In this region are able to provide common regional climate information. However, the chronologies at the lower forest limits showed a higher standard deviation and more significant correlations with climatic factors, suggesting that the radial growth there was more significantly Influenced by climate variation. The first principal component of the four chronologies showed a common growth response to local climate. The second principal component showed a contrasting growth response between different sampling sites. The third principal component revealed different growth patterns In response to altitudinal variation. Further analysis Indicated that the precipitation In late spring and early summer controlled the growth of S. przewalskii on a regional scale and that other factors, such as mlcroenvlronment at the sampling sites, also affected the strength of the climatic response of tree growth.     

松嫩盐碱草地西部的植物群落特征与土壤因子动态关系分析

应用逐步回归法,分析了5~9月松嫩盐碱草地植物群落的生物量、丰富度、多样性和均匀度与同月土壤因子间的关系。松嫩盐碱草地植物群落特征受若干土壤因子的共同影响,不同月份影响因子的变化较复杂。5~7月土壤盐分和养分共同影响着松嫩盐碱草地植物群落生物量,但是土壤盐分因子与群落生物量的相关性更明显（5月的Ca²⁺质量分数,6月和7月的Mg²⁺质量分数）。土壤盐分因子在整个生长季内对松嫩盐碱草地植物群落生物量的直接作用都大于土壤养分因子的。6月时影响松嫩盐碱草地植物群落丰富度、Simpson指数和Shannon指数的土壤养分因子增加,其中土壤全氮质量分数的直接作用是所有土壤因子中最大的。8月植物群落生物量、Simpson指数和Shannon指数仅受土壤盐分因子影响,其中生物量与土壤pH值以及Simpson指数与土壤碱化度都是极显著负相关,Shannon指数与土壤含盐量显著负相关。6~9月的松嫩盐碱草地植物群落均匀度也同时受土壤养分和盐分因子的作用,其中6月和9月时土壤盐分因子对群落均匀度的直接作用更突出。生长末期（9月）松嫩盐碱草地植物群落生物量与土壤因子间的关系以及生长初期（5月）植物群落均匀度与土壤因子间的关系都不明显。     

Difference in tree growth responses to climate at the upper treeline: Qilian Juniper in the Anyemaqen Mountains

Three ring-width chronologies were developed from Qilian Juniper (Sabina przewalskii Kom.) at the upper treeline along a west-east gradient in the Anyemaqen Mountains.Most chronological statistics,except for mean sensitivity (MS),decreased from west to east.The first principal component (PC1) Ioadings indicated that stands in a similar climate condition were most important to the variability of radial growth.PC2 Ioadings decreased from west to east,suggesting the difference of tree-growth between eastern and western Anyemaqen Mountains.Correlations between standard chronologies and climatic factors revealed different climatic influences on radial growth along a west-east gradient in the study area.Temperature of warm season (July-August) was important to the radial growth at the upper treeline in the whole study area.Precipitation of current May was an important limiting factor of tree growth only in the western (drier) upper treeline,whereas precipitation of current September limited tree growth in the eastern (wetter) upper treeline.Response function analysis results showed that there were regional differences between tree growth and climatic factors in various sampling sites of the whole study area.Temperature and precipitation were the important factors influencing tree growth in western (drier) upper treeline.However,tree growth was greatly limited by temperature at the upper treeline in the middle area,and was more limited by precipitation than temperature in the eastern (wetter) upper treeline.
