植物园与城市生物多样性保护和利用   总被引:10,自引:1,他引:9  
以往生物多样性保护的实施,主要着眼于野外。实际上,威胁生物多样性的因素,主要是人类的经济生产活动,其典型标志是城市化过程。然而城市化的进程是无法阻止的,因此,应提倡从改善城市化过程以及正确导向城市化来保护生物多样性。本文主要讨论城市生物多样性保护的必要性、可能性及有利条件。同时指出,绝大多数植物园都在大、中城市中,应该担负历史赋予的这个责任,在城市生物多样性保护和利用中发挥作用。  相似文献

城市扩展是导致生境破碎化和生物多样性下降的重要原因之一,强烈改变城市景观,也改变生态过程。土壤动物是城市生态系统的重要组成部分,可对快速城市化进程及其带来的影响做出相对灵敏的响应,具有典型的环境指示作用。城市生态系统的干扰因素较复杂,土地利用类型不能完全反映土壤动物局地生境差异,这使得城市景观格局对土壤动物多样性的影响问题长期以来缺乏系统研究。为了解决城市化导致的生境丧失与土壤动物多样性保护的矛盾,本文探讨了不同城市化梯度区景观格局对土壤动物多样性的影响研究进展,试图揭示景观尺度多种生境类型的土壤动物分布规律,为城市土壤动物多样性保护提供一种新的思路,丰富城市景观生态学的研究内容。  相似文献

城市公园和郊区公园生物多样性评估的指标   总被引:17,自引:0,他引:17  
陈波  包志毅 《生物多样性》2003,11(2):169-176
随着城市化进程的加快,城市的生物多样性不可避免地受到城市化的各种影响,城市及其郊区的生物多样性保护越来越受到人们的重视。城市公园与郊区公园中往往具有高度多样化的生境,并保存着某些自然植被片段和动物物种,那里的生物多样性较高。可见,在城市和郊区的生物多样性保护中,公园生物多样性的保护是一个非常关键的环节,而对其生物多样性的评估又是有效保护的基础。目前,我国生物多样性评估方面的研究工作多集中于物种水平,而对生境的研究较少,但实践证明,保护生境比保护物种更为重要。本文介绍了比利时学者Hermy & Cornelis在比利时西佛兰德省的Loppem市立公园的保护实践中构建的一种对城市公园和郊区公园中的生物多样性进行评估的方法。该方法从两个方面展开:生境多样性和物种多样性。在生境水平上,首先对各种生境单元进行分类,这些单元被分为面状、线状和点状要素。针对每种要素,分别计算了Shannon-Wiener多样性指数和饱和度指数。饱和度指数是实际的多样性指数与最大可能的多样性指数之比。在物种水平上,使用了物种数、Shannon-Wiener多样性指数和饱和度指数来评估公园中的高等植物、蝴蝶、两栖动物和饲养的鸟类等物种。这样,就获得了20个生物多样性指标,根据这些指数就可以对Loppem市立公园内的生物多样性进行评估。结合我国生物多样性评估工作的实际要求,文章最后对上述方法进行了讨论,指出该方法对我国公园的生物多样性评估工作具有借鉴意义,但在运用时各地需要结合本地的实际情况。  相似文献

本文综述了城市化对植物多样性影响的研究进展。随着全球特别是发展中国家城市化水平的提高,城市化对生物多样性的影响逐渐引起了人们的重视。城市化造成了本土植物物种的丢失和外来物种的增加。在空间分布上,城市化还常使城区本土植物多样性沿着远郊农区-城郊-城区梯度性下降;但是由于引进大量外来物种,总体植物多样性反而升高,沿着远郊农区-城郊-城区梯度性升高。城市化对植物种类组成也有很大影响,优势种在远郊农区、城郊和城区呈现不同。城市化对植物多样性影响的机制主要有人为引入外来物种、小生境改变以及景观格局的变化三个方面。以下四个研究方向将越来越重要:(1)不同区域、不同方法、不同学科的系统整合研究;(2)城市化扩张与植物多样性变化过程的定位监测研究;(3)本土植物多样性丢失以及性状改变的内在机制研究,特别是外来物种与本地物种的相互作用过程和机制的研究;(4)城市植物多样性保护研究。  相似文献

The biodiversity of agricultural landscapes has been noticeably affected by rapid urbanization. Although many studies have examined species diversity per unit area (alpha diversity), knowledge about the patterns of species turnover (beta diversity) in urban areas remains limited. Furthermore, most beta diversity studies have focused on spatial heterogeneity; however, losses of temporal heterogeneity resulting from urbanization remain limited. In this study, we examined how urbanization is associated with decreases in the seasonal heterogeneity of species composition, which could be used as an indicator of the loss of seasonality by ecologists and policy makers aiming to conserve biodiversity. We investigated (1) changes in species richness based on seasonal averages (alpha diversity) and (2) the seasonal turnover of species composition (beta diversity) for flowering plants and butterflies along a rural-urban gradient in semi-natural grasslands. The response variables were alpha and beta diversity for flowering plants and butterflies, and the explanatory variables were urban areas within a 1-km radius of the center of each site. Increasing urban area caused both the seasonal alpha and beta diversity of flowering plants and butterflies to decline. These results supported the homogenization hypothesis for the seasonality of plants and butterflies in semi-natural grasslands of dominant urban areas in East Asia. Future studies should focus on investigating how urbanization is causing both declines in seasonality and changes in the spatial heterogeneity of species composition and associated biodiversity loss. Ecologists and policy makers should focus on developing strategies to halt the loss of temporal biological heterogeneity to maintain biodiversity.  相似文献

The importance of urban biodiversity is debated by many in the conservation community. Some researchers and managers focus on threats to biodiversity associated with urbanization and land use change. In contrast to this approach, people who live in, study, or care about cities—ecologists, wildlife managers, conservation biologists, planners, and local residents—have debated what biodiversity means in urban settings. Recent literature on biodiversity in cities notes the range of ecological, social, and cultural meanings of urban biodiversity and stresses the importance of defining the setting and scales at which biodiversity is being assessed. This approach to urban biodiversity has documented the importance of conservation of rare species and habitats but also the importance of managing the range of habitats in and around where people live, work, and play.  相似文献

Cities are growing rapidly worldwide, yet a mechanistic understanding of the impact of urbanization on biodiversity is lacking. We assessed the impact of urbanization on arthropod diversity (species richness and evenness) and abundance in a study of six cities and nearby intensively managed agricultural areas. Within the urban ecosystem, we disentangled the relative importance of two key landscape factors affecting biodiversity, namely the amount of vegetated area and patch isolation. To do so, we a priori selected sites that independently varied in the amount of vegetated area in the surrounding landscape at the 500‐m scale and patch isolation at the 100‐m scale, and we hold local patch characteristics constant. As indicator groups, we used bugs, beetles, leafhoppers, and spiders. Compared to intensively managed agricultural ecosystems, urban ecosystems supported a higher abundance of most indicator groups, a higher number of bug species, and a lower evenness of bug and beetle species. Within cities, a high amount of vegetated area increased species richness and abundance of most arthropod groups, whereas evenness showed no clear pattern. Patch isolation played only a limited role in urban ecosystems, which contrasts findings from agro‐ecological studies. Our results show that urban areas can harbor a similar arthropod diversity and abundance compared to intensively managed agricultural ecosystems. Further, negative consequences of urbanization on arthropod diversity can be mitigated by providing sufficient vegetated space in the urban area, while patch connectivity is less important in an urban context. This highlights the need for applying a landscape ecological approach to understand the mechanisms shaping urban biodiversity and underlines the potential of appropriate urban planning for mitigating biodiversity loss.  相似文献

Identifying which ecological and life history traits influence a species’ tolerance to urbanization is critical to understanding the trajectory of biodiversity in an increasingly urbanizing world. There is evidence for a wide array of contrasting patterns for single trait associations with urbanization. In a continental‐scale analysis, incorporating 477 species and >5 000 000 bird observations, we developed a novel and scalable methodology that evaluated the ecological and life history traits which most influence a species’ adaptability to persist in urban environments. Specifically, we assigned species‐specific scores based on continuous measures of response to urbanization, using VIIRS night‐time light values (i.e. radiance) as a proxy for urbanization. We identified generalized, phylogenetically controlled patterns: bird species which are generalists (i.e. large niche breadth), with large clutch size, and large residual brain size are among the most urban‐tolerant bird species. Conversely, specialized feeding strategies (i.e. insectivores and granivores) were negatively associated with urbanization. Enhancement and persistence of avian biodiversity in urban environments probably relies on protecting, maintaining and restoring diverse habitats serving a range of life history strategies.  相似文献

The Luxury Effect hypothesizes a positive relationship between wealth and biodiversity within urban areas. Understanding how urban development, both in terms of socio‐economic status and the built environment, affects biodiversity can contribute to the sustainable development of cities, and may be especially important in the developing world where current growth in urban populations is most rapid. We tested the Luxury Effect by analysing bird species richness in relation to income levels, as well as human population density and urban cover, in landscapes along an urbanization gradient in South Africa. The Luxury Effect was supported in landscapes with lower urbanization levels in that species richness was positively correlated with income level where urban cover was relatively low. However, the effect was reversed in highly urbanized landscapes, where species richness was negatively associated with income level. Tree cover was also positively correlated with species richness, although it could not explain the Luxury Effect. Species richness was negatively related to urban cover, but there was no association with human population density. Our model suggests that maintaining green space in at least an equal proportion to the built environment is likely to provide a development strategy that will enhance urban biodiversity, and with it, the positive benefits that are manifest for urban dwellers. Our findings can form a key contribution to a wider strategy to expand urban settlements in a sustainable way to provide for the growing urban population in South Africa, including addressing imbalances in environmental justice across income levels and racial groups.  相似文献

城市化对土壤生态环境的影响研究进展   总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6  
城市土壤是城市生态系统中最重要的组成部分之一,发挥着重要的生态系统服务功能。在全球快速城市化的背景下,城市土壤受到人类活动的强烈干扰,土壤物理、化学性质发生改变,土壤退化与污染日益加重。城市土壤退化导致土壤动物生态特征与行为模式发生变化,城市景观格局与土地利用类型的变化强烈影响了土壤动物的栖息地,为土壤动物的生存与生物多样性带来潜在威胁;另一方面,城市化过程改变了土壤微生物群落组成与功能特征。城市化直接影响了城市土壤维持植物生长、土壤自然消减能力以及碳储存功能等重要的生态系统服务功能。针对城市化过程对土壤生态环境产生的一系列影响,需要采用科学的管理方式,改善土壤理化性质,提高土壤环境质量,保护和恢复土壤生物多样性,从而增强城市土壤的生态系统服务功能。  相似文献

Urban environments are novel ecosystems, with increased chemical, sound, and light pollution differentially impacting many animals. Understanding the impacts of urban environments on biodiversity is the first step to understanding how to best mitigate biodiversity losses in an increasingly urbanizing world. Analyses with broad geographic and taxonomic coverage can offer critical context for informing urban biodiversity conservation. But such studies are currently lacking, especially for under-studied, but likely highly impacted, taxa such as frogs. Our objective was to document frog diversity in relation to urban environments at continental, regional, and local scales. We used FrogID data, ⁠an opportunistic citizen science dataset generated by volunteers recording calling frogs using a smartphone and validated by experts ⁠throughout continental Australia, to calculate species richness, Shannon diversity, and phylogenetic diversity of frogs in urban and non-urban areas, as well as along a continuous urbanization gradient. The overall species richness of frogs was, on average, 57% less in urban than non-urban areas across six ecoregions. Further, we found significantly lower frog diversity in urban environments compared with non-urban environments across the country, with an average reduction of 59% species richness, 86% Shannon diversity, and 72% phylogenetic diversity. We also found evidence for a steady decrease in frog diversity along an urbanization gradient, with no obvious thresholds. Our results highlight the negative impacts of urbanization, ⁠at a continental scale, ⁠on frog diversity, and clearly highlight the necessity to consider frog diversity in future urban land development decisions.  相似文献
