兰州市南北两山5种典型人工林凋落物的水文功能

结合野外实地观测和室内浸水试验,对兰州市南北两山5种典型人工林(侧柏林、刺槐林、新疆杨林、侧柏+刺槐混交林、新疆杨+刺槐混交林)凋落物的持水特性进行研究。结果表明: 不同林分类型凋落物的蓄积量在13.50～47.01 t·hm^-2,依次为新疆杨+刺槐混交林＞侧柏+刺槐混交林＞侧柏林＞刺槐林＞新疆杨林。除侧柏林外,其他林分类型的半分解层蓄积量所占比例均高于未分解层。凋落物最大持水率在190.8%～262.7%,新疆杨+刺槐混交林最大,侧柏林最小。凋落物最大持水量在35.29～123.59 t·hm^-2,依次为新疆杨+刺槐混交林＞侧柏+刺槐混交林＞刺槐林＞侧柏林＞新疆杨林。凋落物的吸水速率在浸水0～1 h直线下降,1 h后降幅减缓,未分解层凋落物吸水速率小于半分解层。最大拦截量和有效拦截量(深)均为新疆杨+刺槐混交林＞侧柏+刺槐混交林＞侧柏林＞刺槐林＞新疆杨林,且新疆杨+刺槐混交林有较高的有效拦截率,表明新疆杨+刺槐混交林在兰州市南北两山有较好的保持水土和涵养水源能力。

Hydrological functions of litters under five typical plantations in southern and northern mountains of Lanzhou City,Northwest China

Combined with field observation and indoor water immersion test, water holding characteristics of litters from five typical plantations (Platycladus orientalis, Robinia pseudoacacia, Populus alba var. pyramidalis, P. orientalis+R. pseudoacacia, P. alba var. pyramidalis+R. pseudoacacia) in southern and northern mountains of Lanzhou City were examined. Results showed that litter mass under the plantations ranged from 13.50 to 47.01 t·hm^-2, with an order of P. alba var. pyramidalis+R. pseudoacacia＞P. orientalis+R. pseudoacacia＞P. orientalis＞R. pseudoacacia＞P. alba var. pyramidalis. The percentage of un-decomposed litters was greater than that of semi-decomposed litters in all plantations except for P. orientalis plantations. The maximum water-holding rate of litters ranged from 190.8% to 262.7%, with the greatest value in the P. alba var. pyramidalis+R. pseudoa-cacia and the lowest in P. orientalis plantations. The maximum water-holding capacity of litters was 35.29-123.59 t·hm^-2, with an order of P. alba var. pyramidalis+R. pseudoacacia＞P. orientalis+R. pseudoacacia＞R. pseudoacacia＞P. orientalis＞P. alba var. pyramidalis. Litter water absorption rate declined linearly within the first hour, and then decreased slowly. Semi-decomposed litters had a higher water-absorption rate than un-decomposed litters. The maximum water retaining amount and effective retaining amount of the litters were P. alba var. pyramidalis+R. pseudoacacia＞P. orientalis+R. pseudoacacia＞P. orientalis＞R. pseudoacacia＞P. alba var. pyramidalis. P. alba var. pyramidalis+R. pseudoacacia had the highest effective retaining rate. P. alba var. pyramidalis+R. pseudoacacia plantation had highest capacity for soil and water conservation in southern and northern mountains of Lanzhou City.
