Above- and belowground biomasses of grasslands are important parameters for characterizing re- gional and global carbon cycles in grassland ecosystems. Compared with the relatively detailed in- formation for aboveground biomass (AGB), belowground biomass (BGB) is poorly reported at the re- gional scales. The present study, based on a total of 113 sampling sites in temperate grassland of the Inner Mongolia, investigated regional distribution patterns of AGB, BGB, vertical distribution of roots, and their relationships with environmental factors. AGB and BGB increased from the southwest to the northeast of the study region. The largest biomass occurred in meadow steppe, with mean AGB and BGB of 196.7 and 1385.2 g/m2, respectively; while the lowest biomass occurred in desert steppe, with an AGB of 56.6 g/m2 and a BGB of 301.0 g/m2. In addition, about 47% of root biomass was distributed in the top 10 cm soil. Further statistical analysis indicated that precipitation was the primary determinant factor in shaping these distribution patterns. Vertical distribution of roots was significantly affected by precipitation, while the effects of soil texture and grassland types were weak.  相似文献

FPAR (fraction of photosynthetically active radiation) and FPAR profile (vertical FPAR distribution) are important parameters for characterizing the vegetation growth status and studying global climate change. Few studies have been carried out to estimate FPAR and FPAR profile using waveform LiDAR data. This research explored the potential of airborne small-footprint full-waveform LiDAR in the estimation of FPAR and FPAR profile of the maize canopy in Huailai County of Hebei Province, China. First, the maize growing area was identified by a simple decision tree model. Second, raw waveform data were processed to extract LiDAR-derived energy ratio and energy ratio profile. Third, FPAR and FPAR profile were estimated from LiDAR-derived metrics. Finally, we analyzed the FPAR and FPAR profile estimation results and assessed the model validity using the leave-one-out cross-validation (LOOCV) method. The comparative analyses found that the LiDAR-derived energy ratio profile and field-measured FPAR profile had the same trend and similar change rate for all maize layers. The accuracy assessments indicated that the FPAR and FPAR profile were estimated well by the LiDAR waveform data, with the high R2 (0.90 for the whole canopy, and 0.95, 0.90, 0.93, 0.92, and 0.97 for layers 1–5) and low RMSEs (0.042 for the whole canopy, and 0.033, 0.035, 0.039, 0.043, and 0.044 for layers 1–5). The spatial distribution map of FPAR was produced to describe the maize growth status of the whole study area, and the map showed that the FPAR distributed relatively uniformly. This study suggested that airborne small-footprint full-waveform LiDAR was useful in accurately measuring FPAR and FPAR profile of the maize canopy and in effectively mapping the maize FPAR spatial distribution.  相似文献

Deadwood is a major component of aboveground biomass (AGB) in tropical forests and is important as habitat and for nutrient cycling and carbon storage. With deforestation and degradation taking place throughout the tropics, improved understanding of the magnitude and spatial variation in deadwood is vital for the development of regional and global carbon budgets. However, this potentially important carbon pool is poorly quantified in Afrotropical forests and the regional drivers of deadwood stocks are unknown. In the first large‐scale study of deadwood in Central Africa, we quantified stocks in 47 forest sites across Gabon and evaluated the effects of disturbance (logging), forest structure variables (live AGB, wood density, abundance of large trees), and abiotic variables (temperature, precipitation, seasonality). Average deadwood stocks (measured as necromass, the biomass of deadwood) were 65 Mg ha?1 or 23% of live AGB. Deadwood stocks varied spatially with disturbance and forest structure, but not abiotic variables. Deadwood stocks increased significantly with logging (+38 Mg ha?1) and the abundance of large trees (+2.4 Mg ha?1 for every tree >60 cm dbh). Gabon holds 0.74 Pg C, or 21% of total aboveground carbon in deadwood, a threefold increase over previous estimates. Importantly, deadwood densities in Gabon are comparable to those in the Neotropics and respond similarly to logging, but represent a lower proportion of live AGB (median of 18% in Gabon compared to 26% in the Neotropics). In forest carbon accounting, necromass is often assumed to be a constant proportion (9%) of biomass, but in humid tropical forests this ratio varies from 2% in undisturbed forest to 300% in logged forest. Because logging significantly increases the deadwood carbon pool, estimates of tropical forest carbon should at a minimum use different ratios for logged (mean of 30%) and unlogged forests (mean of 18%).  相似文献

高寒矮嵩草草甸植物类群对模拟降水和施氮的响应   总被引:12,自引:1,他引:12       下载免费PDF全文
 研究了青藏高原高寒矮嵩草(Kobresia humilis)草甸植物类群对模拟夏季增减雨量、冬春增雪以及增施氮肥下的响应。结果表明:1999年模拟减少降雨20%~40%和增加雨量20%~40%下禾草类、杂类草和莎草类的综合优势比(SDR)和地上生物量变化均不显著。冬春增雪100%有利于禾草类夏季的生长,冬春增雪对植物类群的影响大于夏季雨量的增加。夏季增施氮150 kg·hm-2和增施氮300 kg·hm-2禾草类的盖度比、高度比、SDR和地上生物量明显增大,而杂类草的盖度比和高度比、SDR及地上生物量在施氮300 kg·hm-2下显著减低,在施氮150 kg·hm-2水平上禾草类的生物量的增加与杂类草生物量的降低存在相互补偿的作用机制。在水分资源不利的(如减少雨量)的干扰下,其敏感性表现为杂类草大于禾草类,莎草类最小。莎草类植物对各种处理下响应不敏感,也说明它对资源环境的波动有很强的适应性。缺水年(1999年)模拟增加雨量20%~40%的条件下,可缓解降水量减少的影响,相反模拟减少雨量20%~40%会增强干旱的影响程度。  相似文献

森林地上生物量的精确估算能够减小碳储量估算的不确定性。为了探寻一种有效地提高森林生物量估算精度的方法,探讨了基于遥感物理模型和经验统计模型估算山地森林地上生物量的方法。首先,基于Li-Strahler几何光学模型和多元前向模式(MFM)进行模型模拟,结合查找表算法(LUT)从多光谱图像HJ1B估算贺兰山研究区的森林地上生物量。其次,采用统计方法建立了2种回归模型:(1)多光谱图像HJ1B进行混合像元分解(SMA),并与雷达图像ALOS/PALSAR进行图像融合建立生物量回归模型;(2)雷达图像ALOS/PALSAR后向散射系数和实测生物量建立了生物量回归模型。用实测数据对3种算法估算结果进行精度验证。研究结果表明:采用几何光学模型和MFM算法估算的森林地上生物量精度最好(决定系数R2=0.61,均方根误差RMSE=8.33 t/hm2,P0.001),其估算地上生物量与实测值一致性较好,估算生物量精度略优于SMA估算的精度(R2=0.60,RMSE=9.417 t/hm2);ALOS/PALSAR多元回归估算的精度最差(R2=0.39,RMSE=14.89 t/hm2)。由此可见,采用几何光学模型和混合像元分解SMA适合估算森林地上生物量,利用这2种方法进行森林地上生物量遥感监测研究具有一定的应用潜力。  相似文献

Amazonian forests function as biomass and biodiversity reservoirs, contributing to climate change mitigation. While they continuously experience disturbance, the effect that disturbances have on biomass and biodiversity over time has not yet been assessed at a large scale. Here, we evaluate the degree of recent forest disturbance in Peruvian Amazonia and the effects that disturbance, environmental conditions and human use have on biomass and biodiversity in disturbed forests. We integrate tree-level data on aboveground biomass (AGB) and species richness from 1840 forest plots from Peru's National Forest Inventory with remotely sensed monitoring of forest change dynamics, based on disturbances detected from Landsat-derived Normalized Difference Moisture Index time series. Our results show a clear negative effect of disturbance intensity tree species richness. This effect was also observed on AGB and species richness recovery values towards undisturbed levels, as well as on the recovery of species composition towards undisturbed levels. Time since disturbance had a larger effect on AGB than on species richness. While time since disturbance has a positive effect on AGB, unexpectedly we found a small negative effect of time since disturbance on species richness. We estimate that roughly 15% of Peruvian Amazonian forests have experienced disturbance at least once since 1984, and that, following disturbance, have been increasing in AGB at a rate of 4.7 Mg ha−1 year−1 during the first 20 years. Furthermore, the positive effect of surrounding forest cover was evident for both AGB and its recovery towards undisturbed levels, as well as for species richness. There was a negative effect of forest accessibility on the recovery of species composition towards undisturbed levels. Moving forward, we recommend that forest-based climate change mitigation endeavours consider forest disturbance through the integration of forest inventory data with remote sensing methods.  相似文献

森林碳库作为全球碳库的重要组成部分,在区域以及全球碳循环中发挥重要作用。森林生态系统有机碳库主要由3部分组成:活植物碳库、土壤有机质碳库和死植物体碳库。各碳库时空差异很大,使研究森林碳储存机制存在很大的不确定性。在全球或者区域尺度上,森林生物量(与森林碳储量密切相关)呈现出清晰的分布格局,但对于这些格局的驱动因子与地上生物量的相关关系和尺度外推程度尚有很大的争议。分别讨论了气候、土壤、地形和生物因子对地上生物量的影响;而后,从各生态因子与地上生物量之间的直接或者间接关系入手,分析了各因子与生物量之间的交互作用,认为目前运用相同的处理方式来研究环境因子和生物因子对森林生物量的影响是不合适的。文章最后介绍两种新的研究方法:层次模型和生境分类,以期用来重新评估生态因子对森林生物量的影响,有助于更准确的了解森林碳储存机制。  相似文献

Understanding carbon (C) stocks or biomass in forests is important to examine how forests mitigate climate change. To estimate biomass in stems, branches and roots takes intensive fieldwork to uproot, cut and weigh the mass of each component. Different models or equations are also required. Our research focussed on the dry tropical Zambezi teak forests and we studied their structure at three sites following a rainfall gradient in Zambia. We sampled 3558 trees at 42 plots covering a combined area of 15ha. Using data from destructive tree samples, we developed mixed-species biomass models to estimate above ground biomass for small (<5 cm diameter at breast height (DBH, 1.3 m above-ground)) and large (≥5 cm DBH) trees involving 90 and 104 trees respectively, that belonged to 12 species. A below-ground biomass model was developed from seven trees of three species (16–44 cm DBH) whose complete root systems were excavated. Three stump models were also derived from these uprooted trees. Finally, we determined the C fractions from 194 trees that belonged to 12 species. The analysis revealed that DBH was the only predictor that significantly correlated to both above-ground and below-ground biomass. We found a mean root-to-shoot ratio of 0.38:0.62. The C fraction in leaves ranged from 39% to 42%, while it varied between 41% and 46% in wood. The C fraction was highest at the Kabompo site that received the highest rainfall, and lowest at the intermediate Namwala site. The C stocks varied between 15 and 36 ton C ha−1 and these stocks where highest at the wetter Kabompo site and lowest at the drier Sesheke site. Our results indicate that the projected future rainfall decrease for southern Africa, will likely reduce the C storage potential of the Zambezi teak forests, thereby adversely affecting their mitigating role in climate change.  相似文献

Abstract. Common reed (Phragmites australis Trin.) has spread in fen meadows on the Swiss Plateau during the last decades. An increased dominance of this tall grass may reduce the plant species richness and displace rare or endangered species because of the additional shade. To investigate whether this has actually happened and whether shading by Phragmites was likely to be responsible for the reduction, the plant species composition was surveyed in 241 plots (4 m2) with differing above-ground biomass of Phragmites (ABP). Species richness and the occurrence of characteristic fen species were negatively related to site productivity (total above-ground biomass), but correlations with ABP were generally weaker. The main change associated with increasing ABP within species-rich fens (alliances Molinion and Caricion davallianae) was an increase of species characteristic of the more species-poor alliance Filipendulion. Thus, Phragmites did apparently not play a disproportionate role in the reduction of species richness in the plant communities studied. Selective clipping experiments and light measurements also indicated that shading by Phragmites does not have a strong effect upon the performance of other species in the community, at least in the short term. The reason appeared to lie in the later seasonal growth of Phragmites compared with the other species. These results suggest that the direct impact of shading by Phragmites on the species richness of fen meadows is probably lower than has been assumed. However, possible long-term or indirect effects still need to be investigated.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

Background: Quantitative effects of large-scale oil palm expansion in the Neotropics on biodiversity and carbon stocks are still poorly documented.

Aims: We evaluated differences in tree species composition and richness, and above-ground carbon stocks among dominant land cover types in Pará state, Brazil.

Methods: We quantified tree species composition and richness and above-ground carbon stock in stands in remnant primary rain forest, young secondary forest, oil palm plantation and pastures.

Results: We sampled 5,696 trees with a DBH ≥ 2 cm, of 413 species in 68 families, of which 381 species were recorded in primary forest fragments. We found significant differences in species richness and carbon stock among the four land cover classes. Carbon stocks in remnant primary forest were typically over 190 Mg ha?1, while those in other land cover types were typically less than 60 Mg ha?1.

Conclusion: Oil palm plantations have a species-poor tree community given active management; old plantations have a standing carbon stock which is comparable to that of secondary forest and far greater than that of pastures. Private forest reserves within oil palm company holdings play an important role in preserving primary forest tree diversity in human-modified landscapes in Amazonia.  相似文献

Species' functional traits may help determine rates of carbon gain, with physiological and morphological trade-offs relating to shade tolerance affecting photosynthetic capacity and carbon allocation strategies. However, few studies have examined these trade-offs from the perspective of whole-plant biomass gain of adult trees. We compared tree-level annual diameter increments and annual above-ground biomass (AGB) increments in eight long-term plots in hyper-diverse northwest Amazonia to wood density (rho; a proxy for shade tolerance), whilst also controlling for resource supply (light and soil fertility). rho and annual diameter increment were negatively related, confirming expected differences in allocation associated with shade tolerance, such that light-demanding species allocate a greater proportion of carbon to diameter gain at the expense of woody tissue density. However, contrary to expectations, we found a positive relationship between rho and annual AGB increment in more fertile sites, although AGB gain did not differ significantly with rho class on low-fertility sites. Whole-plant carbon gain may be greater in shade-tolerant species due to higher total leaf area, despite lower leaf-level carbon assimilation rates. Alternatively, rates of carbon loss may be higher in more light-demanding species: higher rates of litterfall, respiration or allocation to roots, are all plausible mechanisms. However, the relationships between rho and AGB and diameter increments were weak; resource availability always exerted a stronger influence on tree growth rates.  相似文献

Plant biomass, mineral composition and the amounts of nutrients in the different fractions of the vegetation were determined for a dense dry deciduous forest growing on light red sands in south-western Madagascar. Complete harvesting and soil coring were used to determine the above- and below-ground biomass respectively. The above-ground biomass, weighing 118 t ha−1 (dry matter), was mostly (96%) made up of phanerophytes (woody trees and shrubs >25 cm tall). Dead material (litter and dead wood on the soil surface) represented 13.8 t ha−1. These results fit well into the range of values reported for other tropical ecosystems. The below-ground biomass was 17.8 t ha−1 giving a root/shoot ratio of 0.15. Rooting is superficial. The nutrient concentration in this dry forest on light reddish-brown sands is, as in other dry forests, considerably higher than that usually found for humid forests. Calcium is the most abundant element. The plant biomass Ca/K ratio is much higher than that of humid tropical forests. In spite of its high originality, this Madagascan dry forest has the same behaviour as other dry forests of the world.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

Background: Discrepancies in the shape of the productivity–diversity relationship may arise from differences in spatial scale. We hypothesised that there is a grain size effect on the productivity–diversity relationship.

Aims: To determine the effect of three sampling grain sizes on the productivity–diversity relationship.

Methods: We applied generalised linear mixed effect models on community data from 735 vegetation plots in the Taleghan rangelands, Iran, sampled at three grain sizes (0.25, 1 and 2 m2) to ascertain plant productivity-diversity patterns, while accounting for the effects of site, plant community type, disturbance, and life form.

Results: Overall, relationships between biomass and plant species richness were unimodal at grain sizes of 0.25 and 1 m2, and asymptotical at 2 m2. The spurious occurrence of a single large shrub may overwhelm a small-sized sampling unit, resulting in a high estimate of the sample’s biomass relative to species richness. However, the relationship between biomass and species richness at larger grain sizes is more likely to reach an asymptote.

Conclusions: Shrubs are partly responsible for driving the relationship between plant biomass and species richness. Given that the frequency of shrubs is highly variable between small plots but not so in large plots, their presence may result in unimodal productivity–diversity relationships at small but not at large grain sizes.  相似文献

Species abundances (evenness or identity of the dominant species in mixtures) usually are not rigorously controlled when testing relationships between plant production and species richness and may be highly dynamic in disturbed or early successional communities. Changes in species abundances may affect the yield of mixtures relative to yields expected from species monocultures [the net biodiversity effect (NBE)] by changing how species that differ in function are distributed in the plant community. To test the prediction that variation in species abundances affects the NBE via changes in the expression of functional differences among species (the complementarity effect), we grew perennial grasses and forbs in field plots in central Texas, USA, as equal-density monocultures and two-species mixtures in which relative abundances of species were varied. Function should differ more consistently between species of different growth forms than of the same growth form. We predicted, therefore, that the complementarity effect and influence of species abundances on the NBE would be more pronounced in grass/forb mixtures than in mixtures with species of the same growth form (grass/grass and forb/forb mixtures). The NBE varied with species evenness in two of the six species pairs studied and with identity of the dominant species in a third species combination. The NBE was sensitive to species proportions in both grass/grass and grass/forb assemblages. In all combinations in which the NBE differed with either evenness or identity of the dominant species, the variation resulted largely from change in the complementarity effect. Our results suggest that the NBE of mixtures is sensitive to effects of species ratios on complementarity.  相似文献
