以湖南典型栎类天然次生林为研究对象,基于51块样地的调查数据,采用k-means聚类分析划分林分类型,研究湖南不同栎类天然次生林幼树更新特征,分析了湖南不同栎类天然次生林幼树更新指标(幼树密度、幼树平均地径、平均高以及平均冠幅)与环境因子、林分因子的相关性,旨在阐明环境因子、林分因子对幼树更新的影响,以期为湖南不同栎类天然次生林的恢复与经营管理提供理论依据。结果表明:(1)利用聚类分析可将研究区内栎类天然次生林划分为5个类型,包括甜槠锥栗混交林(CC)、亮叶水青冈多脉青冈混交林(FC)、石栎樟树混交林(LC)、枹栎甜槠混交林(QC)、青冈栎混交林(CG)。(2)不同类型栎类天然次生林更新幼树优势种分化明显,物种丰富度差异显著(P0.05)。5种不同栎类次生林幼树密度均未超过500株/hm~2,更新情况较差;幼树数量差异显著(P0.05),为亮叶水青冈多脉青冈混交林石栎樟树混交林青冈栎混交林枹栎甜槠混交林甜槠锥栗混交林;生长情况差异显著(P0.05),为青冈栎混交林亮叶水青冈多脉青冈混交林枹栎甜槠混交林甜槠锥栗混交林石栎樟树混交林。(3)相关分析结果显示,不同类型次生林幼树更新的主要影响因子存在差异。甜槠锥栗混交林中幼树密度与腐殖质厚度呈显著负相关(P0.05);幼树平均高与灌木盖度呈显著正相关(P0.05);幼树平均地径与草本盖度、灌木盖度呈显著正相关(P0.05)。亮叶水青冈多脉青冈混交林中幼树密度与海拔、腐殖质厚度、枯落物厚度呈显著正相关(P0.05),与草本盖度呈极显著正相关(P0.01);幼树平均地径与郁闭度呈显著负相关(P0.05);幼树平均高、幼树平均冠幅与坡位呈显著正相关(P0.05)。石栎樟树混交林中幼树密度与坡向、土壤厚度呈显著正相关(P0.05),其余因子对幼树生长无显著影响。枹栎甜槠混交林中幼树密度与郁闭度、乔木密度呈极显著正相关(P0.01),与坡位呈显著负相关(P0.05);幼树平均冠幅与坡度呈显著负相关(P0.05)。青冈栎混交林中幼树平均地径与土壤厚度呈显著正相关(P0.05),与乔木密度呈极显著正相关(P0.01);幼树平均冠幅与灌木盖度呈显著正相关(P0.05)。     

林分结构对烟台黑松海岸防护林天然更新的影响

为阐明黑松(Pinusthunbergii)海岸防护林天然更新的影响机制,在对烟台2个典型样地6条样带共60个样方(10m×10m)调查的基础上,采用拟合模型和多重回归分析技术,探讨林分结构指标中,垂直结构(树冠指数、小树比例和大树比例)和密度因素(基面积、郁闭度和灌木盖度)对黑松种群天然更新的影响。结果表明在垂直结构变量中,树冠指数(CI)与幼龄植株个数之间存在典型的抛物线关系,在CI5-6范围内,幼龄植株个数达到最高;幼龄植株个数与小树比例关系较弱,但与大树比例表现出显著的正线性关系。在密度变量中,幼龄植株随着郁闭度的增加,个体数呈上升趋势,而随着灌木盖度的增加,则表现出显著的下降倾向;幼龄植株个数与基面积关系不明显。幼龄植株个体数变化取决于垂直结构变量CI和密度变量郁闭度和灌木盖度共同作用的影响。理解这些更新规律,是黑松海岸防护林可持续管理的前提。     

樟子松人工固沙林天然更新障碍因子分析

采用比较分析与野外试验的方法,对沙地樟子松人工林天然更新障碍因子进行了分析。结果表明,影响天然更新的环境因子主要有郁闭度、枯枝落叶层、植被盖度和立地条件。天然更新的障碍主要是由于引种地降雪覆盖少,温度偏高等原因,使土壤蒸发大、苗木蒸腾大,造成水分的亏缺,从而导致1－2年生更新幼苗死亡。针对樟子松人工固沙林天然更新障碍及其更新特点,提出在适宜立地上采取人工促进措施,如埋土、灌水等方法,以保证天然更新有效进行。     

川西亚高山暗针叶林恢复过程中岷江冷杉天然更新状况及其影响因子

在川西亚高山米亚罗林区海拔3 100~3 600 m阴坡、半阴坡, 以立地条件基本一致的箭竹和藓类林型不同恢复阶段(20~40 a生的箭竹阔叶林、50 a生的箭竹针阔混交林、160~200 a生的箭竹原始暗针叶老龄林; 20~40 a生的藓类阔叶林、50 a生的藓类针阔混交林、160~200 a生的藓类原始暗针叶老龄林)的群落为研究对象, 共设置了50个样方(20 m×20 m), 采用空间代时间的方法分析了岷江冷杉(Abies faxoniana)的天然更新状况, 并采用通径分析法对其影响因子进行分析。结果表明: 箭竹和藓类两种森林类型岷江冷杉幼苗、幼树和小树的密度偏低。对于箭竹林型不同恢复阶段, 岷江冷杉幼苗密度＜幼树密度＜小树密度; 对于藓类林型不同恢复阶段, 藓类阔叶林幼树密度大于幼苗和小树密度, 藓类针阔混交林小树密度大于幼苗和幼树密度, 而藓类原始暗针叶老龄林幼苗密度大于幼树和小树密度。藓类林型岷江冷杉天然更新状况好于箭竹林型。对箭竹林型而言, 影响岷江冷杉天然更新的关键因子为母树密度、倒木蓄积量、箭竹盖度和苔藓层厚度, 其中母树密度和倒木蓄积量对岷江冷杉天然更新起着促进作用, 箭竹盖度和苔藓层厚度对岷江冷杉天然更新起着阻碍作用; 对于藓类林型而言, 影响岷江冷杉天然更新的关键因子为灌木盖度和苔藓层厚度。灌木和苔藓有利于幼苗的发生, 但不利于幼苗向幼树、小树的过渡。

海南岛木麻黄林林下植物天然更新影响因素的研究

木麻黄海防林是海南岛重要的海岸生态屏障,天然更新对其持续发挥防护功能具有重要意义。调查发现海南岛大多数木麻黄林林下天然更新困难,然而却存在局部更新良好的现象。为了探究天然更新存在巨大差异的原因,并为促进海南海防林由人工林向近自然林转化提供一定的理论基础,通过分析不同林地更新质量的差异,研究影响木麻黄海防林林下天然更新的主要影响因素。该研究在海南岛木麻黄海防林中共设置73块临时样地,采用方差分析和相关分析等统计方法,分别研究林地所属气候区、林分条件、土壤因子和凋落物累积量对天然更新质量和密度的影响。结果表明:(1)湿润气候区的木麻黄林下更新要显著优于半干旱区;(2)木麻黄林分密度与更新密度和草本盖度存在显著负相关,但林分条件其他因子对更新影响不大;(3)不同更新质量样地的土壤pH和养分均无显著性差异,但铵态氮对幼苗、有机质对幼树的更新存在一定的促进作用;(4)凋落物的累计整体不利于天然更新的进行。结果说明气候因子、木麻黄林分密度、木麻黄凋落物积累量是木麻黄海防林林下植物天然更新的主要影响因素。     

关帝山云杉次生林冠层结构对天然更新的影响

冠层结构和林下光环境对天然更新苗的分布和生长具有重要的作用。本研究以关帝山云杉次生林天然更新苗为对象,利用单因素方差分析和泊松相关性检验,分析冠层结构对天然更新苗的影响。结果表明：在林冠开度(CO)为19.5%～24.5%、林下散射光指数为4～5时天然更新株数最多;最适的CO、林下直射光和林下总光照表现为幼苗大于幼树,而最适叶面积指数则幼苗小于幼树;冠层结构及林下光照对于幼苗的生长相关性不显著。幼苗和幼树对于林下光环境有着不同的适应区间,不同密度的更新苗样地间叶面积指数和林下光照存在显著差异,研究结果为理解该地区林分天然更新提供科学依据。     

油松人工林林窗对幼苗天然更新的影响

为了阐明油松人工林间伐产生的林窗对幼苗天然更新的影响,通过典型样地调查,对不同生境的生态因子,以及1 ～ 10年生油松幼苗的年龄结构、高度、基径、针叶长及根、茎、叶生物量进行了调查,并对影响幼苗更新数量的环境因子进行通径分析.结果表明:阴坡与阳坡不同大小林窗下的生态因子存在明显差异.林下缺少3年生以上的幼苗,小林窗下缺少7年生以上的幼苗,大林窗下5、6年生幼苗较少.1 ～10年生油松幼苗可分为1～3年生、4～7年生和8 ～ 10年生3个阶段,1～3年生幼苗的存活是种群能否成功更新的关键.幼苗生长总体表现为阴坡大林窗＞阳坡大林窗＞阳坡小林窗＞阴坡小林窗＞阳坡林下＞阴坡林下.通径分析表明,光照强度对各个阶段的幼苗数量起积极的决定作用,灌木层盖度对4～7年生及8 ～ 10年生幼苗数量均起积极的决定作用,腐殖质干质量对4～7年生幼苗数量起消极作用,但对8～10年生幼苗数量起积极作用.在油松人工林经营中,应进行高强度的间伐,同时清理林下灌木,为油松种群可持续发育提供条件.     

不同立地条件下昆虫群落对松毛虫密度影响的估计(英文)

天敌在松毛虫种群动态中起重要作用,但把天敌的作用加入系统管理模型中却很困难。本文试图用林分因子代替天敌的作用,因为林分条件可以方便地用于系统模型中。通过对浙江省衢县、常山县和龙游县不同立地条件的222块样地的调查数据的分析,从70多科的昆虫群落中选择了16个关键种（科）,并对林分因子和各样地关键种的种数、个体数、多样性之间的关系进行了典型相关分析。结果表明郁闭度和植被条件（灌木层盖度、灌木层高度、草木层盖度、草木层高度、总盖度）是刻划昆虫群落功能的关键林分因子。根据郁闭度的变化和植被条件用系统聚类方法可以把林区分为四种类型,这四种类型林地的昆虫多样性指数、种数、个体数量和松毛虫的密度都存在明显差异;在每种林地都建立了松毛虫密度的变化率与关键林分因子间的回归模型,所有的回归的相关系数都相当高（0．924－0．964）,因此可以认为对林地的分类是合理的,而且用林分因子评估天敌的影响在实践中是可行的。     

Spatial structure of the abiotic environment and its association with sapling community structure and dynamics in a cloud forest

Analyzing the relationship between the spatial structures of environmental variables and of the associated seedling and sapling communities is crucial to understanding the regeneration processes in forest communities. The degree of spatial structuring (i.e., spatial autocorrelation) of environmental and sapling community variables in the cloud forest of Teipan, S Mexico, were analyzed at a 1-ha scale using geostatistical analysis; after fitting semivariogram models for each set of variables, the association between the two sets was examined through cross-variograms. Kriging maps of the sapling community variables (density, cover, species richness, and mortality and recruitment rates) were obtained through conditional simulation method. Canopy openness, total solar radiation, litter depth, soil temperature and soil moisture were spatially structured, as were sapling density, species richness and sapling mortality rate. Mean range in semivariograms for environmental and sapling community variables were 13.14 ± 3.67 and 12.68 ± 5.71 m (±SE), respectively. The spatial structure of litter depth was negatively associated with the spatial structures of sapling density, species richness, and sapling community cover; in turn, the spatial structure of soil moisture was positively associated with the spatial structure of recruitment rate. These associations of the spatial structures of abiotic and sapling community variables suggest that the regeneration processes in this cloud forest is driven by the existence of different microsites, largely characterized by litter depth variations, across which saplings of tree species encounter a range of opportunities for successful establishment and survival.     

影响不同林型天然红松混交林林隙更新的土壤特征因子

采用野外调查、样品采集和统计分析等相结合的方法,对小兴安岭天然红松混交林3种不同林型(椴树红松混交林(TP)、枫桦红松混交林(BP)、云冷杉红松混交林(PAP))的林隙及其邻近郁闭林分的土壤特征因子和树木更新的相关性进行了研究,旨在阐明林隙土壤特征因子对树木更新的影响,从而为小兴安岭天然红松混交林植被更新、退化生态系统的恢复和可持续经营提供基础数据和实践参考。结果表明:郁闭林分土壤有机质、全氮质量分数显著高于3种不同林型的林隙。有效磷和速效钾含量在BP内与其他林型之间差异显著。3种林型林隙内p H值均略高于其郁闭林分,但与其差异均不显著。3种林型林隙内更新总密度、幼树更新密度与郁闭林分差异显著(P0.05),PAP林隙中更新总密度和幼树更新密度最高。BP林隙面积与更新密度相关不显著,乔木幼苗、幼树更新密度与有机质(r=-0.400,r=-0.475)、全氮均呈显著负相关(r=-0.519,r=-0.603)。TP林隙内全氮与乔木幼苗更新密度呈正相关(r=0.092),而与乔木幼树更新密度呈显著负相关(r=-0.585)。PAP林隙内全氮与乔木幼苗、幼树更新密度均呈负相关。郁闭林分幼苗更新密度分别与有机质、全氮、速效钾、p H值、脲酶和蛋白酶呈负相关。主成分分析表明,全氮是影响林隙和郁闭林分树木更新的关键因素。     

黑龙江省不同地点蒙古栎林生态特点研究

通过对黑龙江省６个地点的天然蒙古栎林的结构和更新特点的分析,蒙古栎林可划分为不同特点的蒙古栎群落,即纯蒙古栎群落、蒙古栎桦树群落、蒙古栎槭树群落、蒙古栎红松群落和蒙古栎松混交林群落,其演替趋势如下：红蒙古栎群落、蒙古栎桦树群落至蒙古栎槭树落、蒙古栎红松群落,再至蒙古栎红松混交林群落,蒙古栎群落类型的多样性主要反应群落不同的演替阶段,造成蒙古栎群落多样的原因是人类活动和自然因素作用的结果,随着群落的演替,蒙古栎的优势地位逐渐被消弱,乔木种类丰富度增多,草本种类丰富度增多;蒙栎的相对密度下降,林内环境由于干燥逐渐变中性至较湿润,蒙古栎幼苗和幼树在总幼苗和幼树中所占的比例下降,耐荫物中色木槭等的幼苗和幼树所占比例上升;在演替过程中,蒙古栎分布格局－聚集分布的聚集程度逐渐降低,并向随机分布的方向发展。     

Vegetation responses to burning in a rain forest in Borneo

During the 1997/98 ENSO (El Niño Southern Oscillation) event more than 5 million ha of East Kalimantan, Indonesia burned. Here we quantify the initial stages of regeneration (19982001), both in forest that burned and in unburned controls. Sapling and seedling density and species richness remained significantly lower in burned than in unburned forest and community composition remained substantially different between both forest types throughout the sampling period. The only pronounced edge effect was a significantly higher density of seedlings in the interior of unburned forest. Sapling density increased and seedling density declined in both unburned and burned forest during the four-year study period. In the unburned forest, sapling and seedling species richness remained stable, but sapling species richness declined significantly with time in the burned forest. The pioneer community in the burned forest was, furthermore, characterised by higher growth and recruitment than in the unburned forest but mortality did not differ between both forest types. Differences in environment (burned versus unburned: 2965% of variation explained) and the distance between sample sites (1323% of variation explained) explained substantial amounts of variation in sapling and seedling community similarity. Similarity was, however, only marginally (< 1% explained) related to the edge position and temporal variation (difference among sample events). Our results, four years after the initial burn, indicate that burned forest still differed greatly from unburned forest in terms of density, species richness and community composition. There was also no clear trend of a return to pre-disturbance conditions, which indicates that the burned forest may remain in a severely degraded state for a prolonged period of time.     

秦岭山地油松群落更新特征及影响因子

采用样方法,对秦岭山地油松次生林群落更新特性和相关环境因子进行了研究.结果表明:油松次生林更新层乔木树种共36种,占总种数的51.4%;优势种有短柄枹栎、锐齿栎和榛子等;幼苗库丰富,高度级及龄级较小;更新方式以实生为主,该森林群落处于演替中期、林分密度对林下乔木幼苗、幼树数量影响极显著(P<0.01),当林分密度从580株.hm-2增加到1500株.hm-2时,林下更新的幼苗、幼树密度呈增加趋势,随着林分密度的继续增加,其密度逐渐减少;坡向对幼苗、幼树密度的影响显著(P<0.05),当坡向由南偏西10°到南偏西40°,林下幼树密度逐渐减少,至阴坡(北偏东10°)幼树数量又逐渐增加.不同坡位林分更新特征各异,平坡林分中幼苗、幼树密度均较大;从坡下向上,幼苗密度逐渐减少,而幼树密度逐渐增大;海拔从1159 m增至1449 m,幼树密度逐渐增加,至1658 m时,幼树密度逐渐减小,而幼苗密度则一直呈现增加趋势.处于阴坡的中密度林分更新效果最佳.合理调整林分密度是加快林分更新的有效途径之一.     

Variation in structural diversity and regeneration potential of tree species in different tropical forest types of Similipal Biosphere Reserve,Eastern India

Understanding the regeneration potential of tree species in natural forest ecosystems is crucial to deliver suitable management practices for conservation of biodiversity. We studied the variation in structural diversity and regeneration potential of tree species in three different tropical forest types, namely: Dry Deciduous forest (DDF), Moist Deciduous forest (MDF) and Semi-evergreen forest (SEF) of Similipal Biosphere Reserve (SBR), Eastern India. Random sample plots were laid for studying the diversity and distribution pattern of tree, sapling, and seedling stages of the tree species. A total of 84 species belong to 73 genera and 35 families were recorded from the study area. The highest species richness was reported for tree (54 species) in DDF, sapling (24 species) in MDF and seedling (22 species each) in SEF and DDF. The overall density of trees with GBH (Girth at Breast Height) ≥ 10 cm was 881 individuals/ha. The regeneration potential of tree species was poor in DDF (39%) where as it was fair in SEF (43%) and MDF (49%). Most of the dominant tree species at each forest type performed good regeneration. The species such as Ehretia laevis Roxb., Bridelia retusa (L.)A.Juss., Mitragyna parviflora (Roxb.) Korth., Terminalia tomentosa Wight & Arn., Terminalia chebula Retz., Terminalia bellirica (Gaertn.) Roxb.etc. had either no regeneration or poor regeneration potential need immediate attention for conservation measures. The diversity of standing trees did not correlate with seedling or sapling diversity in all the cases but there was significant correlation among seedling and sapling diversity found in DDF (r = 0.67, p ≤ 0.05) and SEF (r = 0.83, p ≤ 0.05). Further, the diversity of tree species increased with their age (trees > saplings > seedlings) and the stem density decreased with their age (trees < saplings < seedlings) in all three forest types. The results of our study would be helpful in understanding the structural attributes, diversity and regeneration potential of different tropical forest types of India for their better conservation and management.     

Regeneration of monsoon rain forest in northern Australia: the sapling bank

Abstract. As part of a wider study examining regeneration pathways in monsoon rain forest vegetation in northern Australia, a one-off, dry season census of saplings was undertaken along transects sampled at each of 33 relatively undisturbed sites broadly representative of the range of regional monsoon rain forest vegetation. Four floristic quadrat groups were derived through TWINSPAN classification. Subsequent analyses involved: (1) comparison of mean dry season stockings of juveniles occurring in different rain forest types, and their structural and environmental correlates; (2) comparison of the contributions of different life forms, and the influence of clonal reproduction in the sapling regeneration banks of different forest types; and (3) exploration of relationships between the distributions of saplings of common tree species with respect to seed bank, floristic, structural, and environmental variables. While data presented here require cautious interpretation given that processes of seedling/sapling recruitment and mortality are highly dynamic, sapling banks were found to be most dense on coarse-textured, moist soils, and least dense on coarse-textured, seasonally dry soils. Canopy cover and fire impact were shown to be highly influential on sapling distribution, especially for saplings of tree species and those growing on seasonally dry sites. Sapling densities were little influenced by proximity to rain forest margins, except for shrubs. The potential for clonal reproduction was significantly greater on dry sites, especially for trees. The majority of saplings sampled were derived from relatively few common, non-clonal, canopy tree species. Sapling distributions of 20 out of 23 common tree species were clumped in the vicinity of conspecific adults; for most species the strength of this relationship was greater than that for any other variable. These data support observations in the literature concerning the distribution of sapling banks in moist and dry tropical forests.     

桥山林区麻栎种群不同发育阶段空间格局及关联性

为探究麻栎种群不同发育阶段的空间分布特征及关联性,以黄土高原南部桥山林区麻栎天然次生林为研究对象,用L(r)函数对麻栎种群不同发育阶段空间分布特征及关联性进行分析。结果表明:(1)样地内麻栎种群各发育阶段数量结构均为不规则倒"J"型,种群结构稳定,能实现持续更新。(2)麻栎种群总体的空间分布特征受生境异质性影响较大,纯林样地中,种群在0—10 m尺度上表现为高强度聚集分布,5—35 m尺度表现为低强度聚集;混交林样地中,0—5 m尺度上表现为高强度聚集分布,5—35 m尺度上则表现为低强度聚集分布。(3)随着种群的发育及尺度的增大,麻栎种群空间聚集强度减弱,纯林样地内,麻栎幼苗在0—6 m的小尺度表现为聚集分布,6—12 m尺度上表现为随机分布;幼树在各尺度上均表现为聚集分布;中龄树与成龄树在各尺度上均表现为随机分布。混交林样地中,仅幼苗在0—6 m尺度上表现为聚集分布,其余各阶段在各尺度下均趋于随机分布。(4)种群不同发育阶段不同尺度空间关联性不同,纯林样地中,幼苗与幼树在1—2 m小尺度上呈负相关,幼树与中龄树在8 m尺度呈正相关,其余各生长阶段之间在任意尺度上均无关联性;混交林样地中,幼树与中龄树在2—12 m尺度上表现为正相关,其余各生长阶段之间在各尺度上均无关联。在未来的森林经营中,应对不同发育阶段、不同生境的种群进行不同抚育措施,促进种群良性发育。     

Effects of heterogeneity of pre-fire forests and vegetation burn severity on short-term post-fire vegetation density and regeneration in Samcheok,Korea

This study investigated the combined effects of heterogeneity of pre-fire forest cover and vegetation burn severity on post-fire vegetation density and regeneration at an early stage in Samcheok, Korea. To measure the spatial heterogeneity of pre-fire forests, spatial pattern metrics at a landscape level and class level were adopted, and a regression tree analysis for post-fire vegetation density and regeneration was used to avoid spatial autocorrelation. Two regression tree models were estimated for post-fire vegetation density and post-fire vegetation regeneration with the same independent variable sets, including heterogeneity of pre-fire forest cover and vegetation burn severity. The estimated model suggested that the percentage of Japanese red pine and burn severity were the most significant variables for post-fire vegetation density and regeneration, respectively. The compositional and spatial heterogeneity of pre-fire forest and burn severity, as well as the degree of burn severity, was found to have significant impacts on post-fire vegetation density and regeneration. Overall, more rapid vegetation regeneration can be expected in more severely burned areas. However, this rapid vegetation regeneration at an early stage is due mostly to perennials and shrubs, not to the sprouting or regrowth of trees. The study results strongly indicated that a susceptible forest cover type and its spatial patterns directly influence the heterogeneity of burn severity and early vegetation density and regeneration. Hence, the management of susceptible forest cover types is particularly critical for establishing more fire-resilient forests and for post-fire forest restoration.
