Forest species in an agricultural landscape in the Netherlands: Effects of habitat fragmentation

Abstract. For 312 forest patches on sandy soils in the Netherlands, effects of fragmentation are studied of forest habitat in the past on the present occurrence of forest plant species. Using regression techniques, the numbers of forest edge, interior, zoochorous and anemochorous species, as well as occurrence of 24 individual species were related to patch area and connectivity measures. Connectivity was defined as the amount of forest habitat around patches within three zones up to 1000 m. Plant categories were distinguished by habitat type and dispersal mechanism. The results showed that number of total species and number of species of all habitat and dispersal categories increased with area. The occurrence of ten individually studied species were also positively related to area. Most of them were interior species. The number of zoochorous species increased with increasing connectivity. Also occurrence of ten individually studied species were affected by connectivity. Interior zoochorous species showed the highest percentage of affected species. The relationship of interior, animal-dispersed plants to connectivity can be explained by the limited distances covered by their dispersal agents (forest birds and ants) in a non-forest habitat. Also, some anemochorous plants appeared to be affected by connectivity, especially those with heavy seeds and potentially short distance dispersal. As not all species within a certain dispersal or habitat category react similar to area or isolation, it is suggested that differences in underlying processes of fragmentation such as local extinction and colonization need more focus.     

降水量和温度对植被覆盖指数影响的空间非平稳性特征——以新疆伊犁河谷地区为例

多变量空间相关分析多基于时间序列数据,对数据时长与统计要求严格,空间非平稳性特征分析可以利用单期数据分析多变量之间的相关性。通过空间变系数回归模型分析了2006年和2011年的新疆伊犁地区降水量和温度对植被覆盖度指数影响的空间变化特征,利用局部线性地理加权回归(GWR)方法估计得到了回归系数曲面,揭示出变量间相互影响的空间异质性,同时利用线性回归最小二乘估计进行了对比。结果表明:(1)空间变系数回归模型可以用于变量间的空间相关分析;(2)局部线性GWR估计方法明显优于线性回归最小二乘估计;(3)拟合结果表明,伊犁地区降水量和温度对植被覆盖指数的影响具有显著的空间非平稳性特征;(4)模型估计误差是降水、气温之外的地形、地貌及人类活动等多种因素造成的,需进一步研究。方法可为具有空间非平稳性特征变量间空间相关性分析以及植被覆盖指数的空间模拟分布提供思路和方法。     

Interspecific allometry of the mandible,dental arch,and molar area in anthropoid primates: Functional morphology of masticatory components

Allometric equations relating the lengths and widths of the mandible and dental arch, and of molar area, were obtained in a wide range of anthropoid primates grouped into four subsets, pongids, cercopithecids, nonmarmoset platyrrhines, and marmosets. Mandibular width is negatively allometric against length across anthropoids but cercopithecids had relatively wider mandibles than nonmarmosets of the same size class. Mandibular length relative to dental arch length was isometric within and between the four groups but dental arch width scaled negatively against all the other dimensions examined in this study, indicating a functional dissociation between the dental arcade and the bony mandible. Molar area showed various scaling patterns relative to mandibular length (isometry) and width (positive). There were no parameters that scaled positively against body weight across groups, except for molar area in cercopithecids (strongly) and nonmarmoset (moderately). Notable functional specializations include relatively long dental arches in cercopithecoids, related to large, elongate bilophodont molars, and the tendency to increase relative jaw length across the range of anthropoid sizes, reflecting negative allometry of the brain (cranial bicondylar width). We caution that various allometry and functional patterns may be masked by generalizing from broad taxonomic comparison involving a large sweep of adaptative patterns.     

Improved interpretation of soil — macrofungal relations in south Swedish beech forests using two complementary regression analyses

Two regression analyses were used to study how the absence/presence of fungi in south Swedish beech forest is related to topsoil and litter chemistry. Since many soil variables are correlated, each species was related to models of (1) the rotated principal components of the soil properties (as suggested by a previous study) and (2) the underlying primary variables. The study indicated that the two analyses are complementary and provide a mean for further interpretation of the results, since they consider different aspects of sporophore occurrence in relation to soil properties. One of the conclusions is that various litter variables, partly related to the mull/mor gradient, are of greater importance than indicated in a previous study.Abbreviations PCA principal component analysis - PC principal component     

Analysis of vegetation-environment relationships using a simultaneous equations model

The simultaneous equations model based on regression analysis was adopted to analyse relations between vegetation and environment in a forest reserve in the eastern part of Poland. It allowed a direct analysis of the vegetational variation caused by both environmental factors and interactions between species. In the system sampled several significant interrelations were found, and the ecological importance of particular factors and species was determined. Similar analysis performed by reciprocal averaging did not yield such satisfactory results, because of the equivocal correlation pattern between ecological variables and ordination axes, the dominance of the first axis and the exclusion of interspecific relations.     

A field experiment on dispersal of newly emerged adults ofMonochamus alternatus (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae)

Newly-emerged adults of Monochamus alternatus aged 1 to 5 days were code-numbered with lacquer paint and released by placing them on the trunks of one or two trees in a Pinus thunbergii stand at weekly intervals during the beetle emergence period from 1980 to 1983. Beetles were captured at weekly intervals from one week after the first day of release. Determinations were made on the distance and direction of beetle dispersal during a week after release and analysed by a method of Inoue (1978). When the stand canopy was closed, the rate of beetle's stay on trees was 0.56 per week. The beetles dispersed at random by walk and flight. When the pine stand was sparse, the rate of beetle's stay on trees was 0.02–0.30 per week. They dispersed at random by flight. The average distances traversed were estimated to be 7.1–37.8 m for the first week after emergence. Using other method, the average distance traversed was estimated to be 10–20 m for each week through the first 3 weeks after release. The results of stepwise multiple regression analysis and a simple field experiment suggested that the dispersal of newly-emerged beetles was affected by stand density, number of beetles emerging from individual dead trees, maximum air temperature, and precipitation.
