辽宁双台河口自然保护区丹顶鹤繁殖生境变化及其繁殖容量分析

运用面积转换矩阵和景观指数对双台河口自然保护区丹顶鹤繁殖生境的变化进行分析。结果表明 ,该地区丹顶鹤繁殖生境的面积不断减小 ,景观异质性和破碎化程度不断增强 ,生境质量不断下降。生境质量的变化将直接引起在该地区丹顶鹤繁殖数量的变化 ,从 1989～1998年 ,在双台河口自然保护区繁殖的丹顶鹤数量逐年下降 ,丹顶鹤的繁殖容量日益减小 ,原因是道路和油井开发强度的不断增大等人类活动的影响。     

圈养丹顶鹤与白枕鹤杂交繁育

我园一只雄性丹顶鹤与一只雌性白枕鹤于2001年开始自然配对产蛋,3年共产51枚,经人工孵化育雏,目前存活15只。杂种鹤在第4周后进入快速增长阶段,在12周达到最高峰,16周后增长速度明显下降,18周后部分指标停止增长。外观上,出生至3月龄时,幼鹤整体颜色都呈黄褐色,以后变化基本一致。目前,2001及2002年存活杂种鹤颜色以白色为主,夹杂着灰色羽毛。     

扎龙自然保护区雌性丹顶鹤血液生化指标

2004年11月至2005年9月,采用自动生化分析仪对扎龙自然保护区10只雌性成体丹顶鹤在越冬期、繁殖期和迁徙期的20项血液生化指标（总蛋白、白蛋白、球蛋白、直接胆红素、间接胆红素、总胆红素、血糖、尿素氮、肌酐、总胆固醇、甘油三酯、谷草转氨酶、谷丙转氨酶、碱性磷酸酶、肌酸肌酶、羟丁酸脱氢酶、乳酸脱氢酶、钙离子、无机磷和镁离子）进行了分析.结果表明：除总蛋白、球蛋白和血糖外,研究区雌性丹顶鹤血液中的其他指标均在不同时期之间表现出显著（P<0.05）或极显著差异（P<0.01).说明总蛋白、球蛋白和血糖可作为雌性丹顶鹤血液生化指标的可靠参考值,其他17项血液生化指标的年变化动态体现出雌性丹顶鹤在不同生理时期的生理特征和生态适应性.如果以这17项血液生化指标作为雌性丹顶鹤血液生化指标的参考值,就必须考虑不同生理时期对其含量的影响.     

Growth and phenology of mature temperate forest trees in elevated CO2

Are mature forest trees carbon limited at current CO₂ concentrations? Will ‘mid‐life’, 35 m tall deciduous trees grow faster in a CO₂‐enriched atmosphere? To answer these questions we exposed ca. 100‐year‐old temperate forest trees at the Swiss Canopy Crane site near Basel, Switzerland to a ca. 540 ppm CO₂ atmosphere using web‐FACE technology. Here, we report growth responses to elevated CO₂ for 11 tall trees (compared with 32 controls) of five species during the initial four treatment years. Tested across all trees, there was no CO₂ effect on stem basal area (BA) increment (neither when tested per year nor cumulatively for 4 years). In fact, the 4th year means were almost identical for the two groups. Stem growth data were standardized by pretreatment growth (5 years) in order to account for a priori individual differences in vigor. Although this experiment was not designed to test species specific effects, one species, the common European beech, Fagus sylvatica, showed a significant growth enhancement in the first year, which reoccurred during a centennial drought in the third year. None of the other dominant species (Quercus petraea, Carpinus betulus) showed a growth response to CO₂ in any of the 4 years or for all years together. The inclusion or exclusion of single individuals of Prunus avium and Tilia platyphyllos did not change the picture. In elevated CO₂, lateral branching in terminal shoots was higher in Fagus in 2002, when shoots developed from buds that were formed during the first season of CO₂ enrichment (2001), but there was no effect in later years and no change in lateral branching in any of the other species. In Quercus, there was a steady stimulation of leading shoot length in high‐CO₂ trees. Phenological variables (bud break, leaf fall, leaf duration) were highly species specific and were not affected by elevated CO₂ in any consistent way. Our 4‐year data set reflects a very dynamic and species‐specific response of tree growth to a step change in CO₂ supply. Stem growth after 4 years of exposure does not support the notion that mature forest trees will accrete wood biomass at faster rates in a future CO₂‐enriched atmosphere.     

黄河三角洲丹顶鹤秋冬季生境选择机制

影响水禽生境选择要素可分为水、食物、隐蔽物和干扰4类,对其划分等级标准,确定采样点的生境类型。在研究区内分秋冬两季调查丹顶鹤(迁徙期和越冬期)生境选择机制的差异;在不同时期按区域的特点和丹顶鹤的生活习性分别选择样点;经过实地野外调查后再利用方差分析和频数对丹顶鹤生境选择机制进行研究。结果表明,迁徙期影响丹顶鹤生境选择的主要因子是干扰,最适生境为远离人类干扰、有浅水域分布的、植被覆盖率较低的地区;越冬期影响丹顶鹤生境选择的主要因子是食物,最喜欢选择人类干扰相对较小的、有水域分布的、动物性食物占主导地位的植被覆盖率较低的地区栖息。     

云贵高原黑颈鹤的种群数量和分布

云贵高原有黑颈鹤的两个越冬区：(1）云南西部;(2)云南东北部和贵州西北部。这两个地区的黑颈鹤数量占全球种群的1／4至1／3。国际鹤类基金会与云南省林业厅于2001／2002年冬季在云贵高原联合对黑颈鹤进行了一次同步计数,本次调查覆盖了17个已知或潜在的黑颈鹤越冬地点,其中15个地点有黑颈鹤分布。在2002年1月18日和19日,分别记录到3261和3182只黑颈鹤。本调查还统计了灰鹤、斑头雁和赤麻鸭,数量分别为：灰鹤804和1158只;斑头雁1759和2978只;赤麻鸭3442和5444只。与1991／1992年冬季进行的调查结果相比,黑颈鹤在这一地区的数量增加了90％以上。     

灰鹤在迁徙途中撞击高压线 伤亡分析与视觉盲区初探

广布于欧亚大陆的灰鹤(Grusgrus)又叫普通鹤、欧亚鹤。采用直接计数法,观测灰鹤的迁徙活动。依据2019至2021年在乌鲁木齐郊区连续3年搜集灰鹤迁徙期遭遇高压线(220kV)挂碰遇难的数据,简单介绍伤亡案例的特点。可能是因为灰鹤前端有一个视觉盲区,致49只灰鹤碰撞了高压线,统计到伤亡率达5.4%。伤亡者多是1龄以上4龄以内的亚成鸟(占94%),成鸟占6%,尚未见1龄内幼鸟。现场解剖,伤亡者的断翅率最高,达到53%;腿被撞折的比率也很高,达51%;腹部或背部擦伤占24%;头或颈部碰伤约为14%。因为碰挂后落地(≥30 m架空线),造成二次受伤,结果有41%的灰鹤身体是多处受伤(复合伤)。最后,对视野盲区进行了初步分析,探讨伤亡的原因,并介绍和推荐几种行之有效的解决办法。     

滦河上游——白枕鹤西部种群的重要停歇地

白枕鹤(Grus vipio)为国家II级重点保护野生动物, 被IUCN列为易危(VU)物种。白枕鹤西部种群繁殖于中蒙俄交界处的达乌尔地区, 数量呈下降趋势。我们于2017-2018年在蒙古国东部给白枕鹤西部种群的50只个体佩戴了GPS-GSM跟踪设备。截至2019年5月, 获得春季和秋季迁徙路径各48条。分析结果显示: 春季91.67%和秋季72.91%的跟踪个体在滦河上游(河北省沽源-内蒙古正蓝旗-多伦区域)停歇, 春季停留时间36.16 ± 15.00天、秋季20.26 ± 11.08天, 分别占春季和秋季迁徙时间的75%和67%, 确定了这一区域是西部种群迁徙途中最重要的停歇地。迁徙路线栖息地选择模型结果显示, 白枕鹤常在距离湖泊较近(< 210 km)、海拔1,200-1,500 m, 且坡度小(< 1°)的区域停歇。而滦河上游和整条迁徙路线停歇位点比较的模型结果显示, 滦河上游停歇地的海拔1,200-1,500 m与整条迁徙路线栖息地选择模型的结果一致; 此外这个区域离河流更近(< 70 km), 不仅有湿地和水体的栖息环境, 还有草地和农田可供觅食和栖息。保护空缺分析发现滦河上游现有四处保护地, 但在保护地内的迁徙停歇点不超过总位点的1.63%。综上, 我们建议将滦河上游整体纳入保护地体系进行管理, 为这一受胁物种及其栖息地管理和保护提供可靠保障。     

Duet structure provides information about pair identity in the red-crowned crane (Grus japonensis)

We studied the acoustic features of the endangered red-crowned crane (Grus japonensis), and, specifically, whether or not the duets carry information about a mating pair identity. The population of this species in the wild is only approximately 2,000 individuals. In 2003–2006, we recorded 343 duets from eight captive and two wild pairs. All of the duets contained an introduction, an unordered alternation of pair mate calls, followed by the main part, representing the regular sequence of syllables, containing 1–2 male and 1–4 female calls per syllable. We subdivided the syllables into five types, by the number of male and female calls per syllable, and analyzed the occurrence of the different syllable types in the duets of the ten pairs. The analysis showed the sustainable pair-specific use of particular syllable types through the years. The discriminant analysis standard procedure, based on seven frequency and temporal parameters of male and female calls, showed 97.7% correct assignment to the pair, which is significantly higher than random values. The high pair specificity of the duet acoustic structures provides the basis for call-based censuses. This would enable the monitoring of the red-crowned crane mating pairs in their natural habitat.     

扎龙湿地丹顶鹤繁殖生境质量变化

基于1996和2004年扎龙湿地丹顶鹤生境因子专题图,通过建立生境适宜性模型和种群格局最邻近体模型,定量分析了扎龙湿地丹顶鹤繁殖生境质量的变化.结果表明：研究期间,扎龙湿地丹顶鹤繁殖适宜生境经历了面积丧失和功能丧失过程;2004年,研究区内丹顶鹤繁殖适宜性生境已大量丧失,核心区繁殖适宜生境已经严重斑块化.丹顶鹤繁殖生境选择行为对生境质量变化的响应表现为两个过程：一是丹顶鹤巢址不断向核心区集中的过程,二是在核心区的分布格局经历了从均匀分布到成群分布的生态过程.
