北长山岛森林乔木层碳储量及其影响因子

人工林是庙岛群岛典型的陆地生态系统的组成部分,对维护海岛地区生态环境具有重要作用。采用现有生物量相对生长方程和样地调查数据相结合的方法,以庙岛群岛中北长山岛为研究区,对海岛黑松纯林与黑松×刺槐混交林两种林型的碳储量进行了估算,并分析了土壤质地及其理化性质对海岛乔木层碳储量的影响。结果表明:黑松乔木层平均碳储量为84.00 t/hm²,接近于世界平均水平(86.00 t/hm²);黑松×刺槐混交林乔木层平均碳储量为29.60 t/hm²,高于山东省乔木层的平均碳储量(27.62 t/hm²)。应用因子分析法研究影响乔木层碳储量的主要因子,结果表明:土壤质地、pH值、含水量及含盐量是影响海岛乔木碳储量重要的影响因子。北长山岛土壤全氮、总磷、土壤有机质、碳氮比等其他理化性质对乔木层碳储量影响不是非常明显。     

铬对中国林蛙蝌蚪生长发育的毒性效应

为评价水域环境中铬元素对两栖动物幼体的急性毒性,将中国林蛙(Rana chensinensis)28～29期蝌蚪分别暴露于30～35 mg·L-1Cr(Ⅲ)6个不同浓度和10 ～ 45mg·L-1Cr(Ⅵ)6个不同浓度的水体中,分别在24、48、72和96 h统计蝌蚪的死亡率及半致死浓度(LC50).结果表明:暴露24、48、72和96 h,Cr(Ⅲ)对蝌蚪的LC50分别为34.09±1.06、33.47±0.65、32.58±0.11和(32.05±0.20) mg·L-1,安全浓度(SC)为(3.21±0.02)mg·L-1;Cr(Ⅵ)对蝌蚪的LC50分别为91.97±5.32、51.19±4.62、35.79±1.40和(28.81±1.87) mg·L-1,安全浓度(SC)为(2.88±0.19) rng·L-1.观察表明:Cr(Ⅲ)的急性毒性是通过与蝌蚪皮肤表面的分泌物结合后粘附在鳃部,导致呼吸障碍致死;而Cr(Ⅵ)的强氧化性可导致蝌蚪的表皮溃变,鳃部萎缩致死;另外,将28～29期蝌蚪暴露于安全浓度(SC)以下的含铬水体进行慢性实验,通过检测蝌蚪的体长、体重和完全变态时间显示,低浓度的Cr(Ⅲ)和Cr(Ⅵ)对蝌蚪的生长发育仍具有一定的抑制作用,并可导致畸型发生,其作用强度呈现剂量效应,但时间累积效应不规律.     

Palynological evaluation of selected honeys from Romania

Fifty-four honey samples collected over two consecutive harvest seasons (2009–2010) from different floristic areas of Romania were analysed. A melissopalynological analysis including qualitative and quantitative analyses was carried out in order to identify the principal pollen types in Romanian honeys and therefore, the important plants exploited by Apis mellifera in this country. Seventy-seven pollen types from 35 botanical families were identified. The main pollen forms were: Brassica napus-type, Tilia, Helianthus annuus, Robinia pseudoacacia, Prunus, Castanea sativa, Fragaria-type and Plantago-type. Honey samples were classified as: acacia honey (Robinia pseudoacacia), lime honey (Tilia), rape honey (Brassica napus-type), sunflower honey (Helianthus annuus), cherry honey (Prunus). Three of them were honeydew honeys whereas the others were all polyfloral. The results from this study can be used as a palynological baseline data of Romanian artisanal honeys.     

黄土丘陵区刺槐叶片-土壤-微生物碳氮磷化学计量学及其稳态性特征

明确植物和微生物在植被恢复过程中的内稳态特性,对反映生物随恢复环境变化的适应性和阐明生态系统养分循环规律有重要意义。以黄土丘陵区恢复5年、10年、20年、30年和45年的刺槐(Robinia pseudoacacia)人工林为研究对象,测定刺槐叶片、土壤和微生物生物量C、N、P含量及其化学计量学指标,重点揭示了叶片和微生物生物量养分在恢复过程中随土壤养分变化的稳态性特征。结果表明:(1)随着恢复年限的增加,土壤、叶片和微生物生物量C、N、P含量表现为增加趋势;(2)不同恢复年限叶片、土壤、微生物生物量C∶N分别为17.03—26.03、9.55—16.94、5.57—10.76、C∶P分别为465.04—634.48、19.89—65.81和39.64—110.53、N∶P分别为17.89—37.03、1.24—4.68和7.15—10.26,除叶片C∶N随恢复年限增加而降低外,其他指标均表现为随恢复年限增加而增加或先增加后降低;刺槐林生长后期可能面临P限制;(3)叶片和微生物生物量C、N、P及其计量比大部分指标与土壤指标的关系能够被内稳态模型很好地模拟(P0.01);其中叶片N∶P、微生物C、N对土壤养分变化较为敏感;其他指标比较稳定。研究表明植物和微生物在面对土壤养分变化时均会通过自我调节呈现内稳态性,说明刺槐在黄土丘陵区有较好的适应性;微生物对土壤养分的变化比植物更加敏感,其养分和计量比指标能较好地指示土壤恢复状况。     

黄土丘陵区辽东栎和刺槐树干液流时滞效应与蒸腾特征的关联性

运用Granier热扩散探针法,于2016年7-9月对半干旱黄土丘陵区天然次生林树种辽东栎和人工林树种刺槐的树干液流进行连续测定,并同步监测气象因子和土壤含水量,用错位相关法分析液流通量密度与空气水汽压亏缺日变化的时滞长度,研究2个树种不同径级个体在不同土壤水分条件下液流通量密度与蒸腾驱动因子之间的时滞效应.结果表明:辽东栎和刺槐液流通量密度的日变化节律与气象因子显著相关,空气水汽压亏缺峰值的出现较辽东栎树干液流通量密度滞后118.2 min,较刺槐树干液流通量密度滞后39.5 min;而光合有效辐射的峰值通常滞后于辽东栎12.4 min,提前于刺槐68.5 min.液流通量密度和空气水汽压亏缺的时滞长度与树种和土壤含水量显著相关,辽东栎、刺槐在土壤含水量较高时段的时滞长度分别大于土壤含水量较低时段32.2和68.2 min.时滞长度与径级的相关性整体上未达到显著水平,但在土壤含水量较低时段小径级刺槐的时滞长度大于大径级21.4 min,差异达到了显著水平.两树种液流通量密度与空气水汽压亏缺之间的时滞效应反映了对蒸腾驱动因子的敏感性,较好的土壤水分条件有利于液流通量密度提早达到峰值,较低土壤水分会导致树干液流对气象环境因子响应的敏感性降低;刺槐树干液流受土壤水分的影响更显著.     

Syntaxonomy of the Robinia pseudoacacia communities in the central peri-adriatic sector of the Italian peninsula

This study presents the results of a floristic vegetational study on Robinia pseudoacacia neoformation forests in the peri-Adriatic sector of central Italy. This has allowed the characterization of these coenoses at the ecological, biogeographic, syntaxonomic and landscape levels. These currently represent the southernmost syntaxa of the Robinietea class described for the Italian peninsula, and the first syntaxonomic contribution of this class in Europe for the Mediterranean biogeographical region. We propose here the new alliance Lauro nobilis–Robinion pseudoacaciae of the order Chelidonio–Robinietalia pseudoacaciae and class Robinietea, with two new associations: Melisso altissimae–Robinietum pseudoacaciae and Rubio peregrinae–Robinietum pseudoacaciae. The new alliance Lauro nobilis–Robinion pseudoacaciae (typus: Melisso altissimae–Robinietum pseudoacaciae) brings together neoformation forests and pre-forest dominated by R. pseudoacacia in those territories with a Mediterranean macroclimate of the peri-Adriatic sector of central Italy. The optimum is found for the alluvial plain and low-slope morphologies, on soils that are moist and rich in organic matter and in areas with anthropic disturbance. On the basis of comparisons with the European context, the alliance Bryonio–Robinion described for the temperate territories of northern Italy is here validated.     

Facilitations between the Introduced Nitrogen-fixing Tree, Robinia pseudoacacia, and Nonnative Plant Species in the Glacial Outwash Upland Ecosystem of Cape Cod, MA

Robinia pseudoacacia, a nitrogen-fixing, clonal tree species native to the central Appalachian and Ozark Mountains, is considered to be one of the top 100 worldwide woody plant invaders. We initiated this project to determine the impact of black locust (Robinia pseudoacacia) on an upland coastal ecosystem and to estimate the spread of this species within Cape Cod National Seashore (CCNS). We censused 20 × 20 m plots for vegetation cover and environmental characteristics in the center of twenty randomly-selected Robinia pseudoacacia stands. Additionally, paired plots were surveyed under native overstory stands, comprised largely of pitch pine (Pinus rigida) and mixed pitch pine–oak (Quercus velutina and Quercus alba) communities. These native stands were located 20 m from the edge of the sampled locust stand and had similar land use histories. To determine the historical distribution of black locust in CCNS, we digitized and georeferenced historical and current aerial photographs of randomly-selected stands. Ordination analyses revealed striking community-level differences between locust and pine–oak stands in their immediate vicinity. Understory nonnative species richness and abundance values were significantly higher under Robinia stands than under the paired native stands. Additionally, animal-dispersed plant species tended to occur in closer stands, suggesting their spread between locust stands. Robinia stand area significantly decreased from the 1970’s to 2002, prompting us to recommend no management action of black locust and a monitoring program and possible removal of associated animal-dispersed species. The introduction of a novel functional type (nitrogen-fixing tree) into this xeric, nutrient-poor, upland forested ecosystem resulted in ‘islands of invasion’ within this resistant system.
