放牧和氮添加对半干旱沙质草地优势种糙隐子草及群落功能性状的影响

为探究氮沉降背景下放牧对半干旱沙质草地植物功能性状的影响,本试验探究了放牧和短期氮添加(20 g·m^-2·a^-1)对半干旱沙质草地优势种糙隐子草(Cleistogenes squarrosa)和群落功能性状的影响。结果表明：放牧和氮添加增加了糙隐子草的重要值,放牧降低了糙隐子草叶面积,氮添加显著降低了围封草地中糙隐子草叶干物质含量,增加了围封和放牧草地中糙隐子草叶氮含量(P<0.05);相同氮素水平下放牧降低了植物群落高度,氮添加增加了围封样地植物叶面积和叶氮含量,增加了放牧样地植物比叶面积和叶氮含量,降低了叶干物质含量(P<0.05);回归分析表明,糙隐子草叶面积和叶氮含量能较好地解释群落水平植物叶面积和叶氮含量的变化。半干旱沙质草地植物群落通过改变植株大小和主要叶性状来响应放牧和氮沉降,对预测未来草地生态系统结构与功能具有重要意义。

差不嘎蒿（Artemisia halodendron）是我国东北部重要的防风固沙植物,本研究利用石蜡切片法观察内蒙古不同地区差不嘎蒿的叶片和茎解剖结构,运用方差分析方法比较不同地区差不嘎蒿解剖结构间的差异性,以逐步回归得出影响解剖数量特征的主导气候因子。结果表明：差不嘎蒿叶为等面叶,表皮细胞为1层,栅栏组织呈环栅型,排列紧密,维管束发达;茎表皮细胞为1层,外韧无限维管束,环状排列,髓发达;来自于北部的呼伦贝尔沙地的差不嘎蒿叶上表皮角质层和茎皮层厚度显著高于科尔沁沙地,髓直径和茎导管直径也有类似趋势;差不嘎蒿栅栏组织厚度、茎筛管直径随生长季降水的减少而增加,叶上表皮角质层、髓直径、茎导管直径随有效温度的减少而增加,表现出对水分和温度的适应性变化。研究结果为本种在不同气候条件下的生态适应性研究提供基础资料。     

黄土高原亚高山草地退化对土壤种子库的影响

本试验对黄土高原亚高山草地不同退化程度下土壤种子库的物种组成、种子密度、分布特征以及影响因素进行了研究。结果表明,研究区地上植物有31种,分属于14科、25属;种子库植物有32种,分属于14科、31属;种子库的83.45%都分布于浅层土壤中（0~5 cm）。随着草地退化程度的加重,地上植被和地下种子库中多年生植物的比例减少,种子库密度与丰富度都显著下降（P<0.001）;极度退化样地的地上一年生植物增多,物种组成与地下种子库相似;轻度和中度干扰的样地中,地上植物与种子库的物种的组成具有显著差异（P<0.01）。总之,亚高山草地退化对土壤种子库产生了较大的影响,其中土壤pH与水分是影响种子库密度与丰富度主要的环境因素。极度退化草地种子库密度极低,地上植被靠自然更新很难恢复,需人工辅助。     

施肥对割草地羊草功能性状和化学计量学的影响

本研究以羊草（Leymus chinensis）为研究对象,测定羊草植物功能性状、营养元素和化学计量等多个指标,进行多角度综合系统的研究,阐释羊草割草地羊草种群对不同改良措施的响应特点及变化规律。运用单、双因素方差分析、相关分析和主成分分析方法对相关指标进行统计分析。结果表明：大多数羊草功能性状对施肥处理较为敏感,但随着施肥年份增加,部分指标敏感程度减弱;高浓度（N 10.5 g·m^-2+P 5.1 g·m^-2）施肥处理显著增加了株高和茎长,茎长成为羊草株高增长的主要因素;高浓度（N 10.5 g·m^-2+P 5.1 g·m^-2）施肥处理有利于羊草种群地上生物量的增加;羊草氮含量随着施肥年份增加逐渐增加,羊草氮含量与羊草C：N存在高度负相关,施肥（N 10.5 g·m^-2+P 5.1 g·m^-2）处理下羊草叶片和茎的C：N,羊草个体和叶片C：P最低。

Combining deliberative and computer-based methods for multi-objective land-use planning

This paper reports the outcomes of a deliberative workshop comparing land-use plans proposed by land-manager or domain experts with those derived using a computer-based decision support system (DSS). The DSS integrates four main components, a geographic information system, land-use systems simulation models, impact assessments and land-use planning tools. The land-use planning tools draw on the other components to generate and evaluate alternative patterns of land use and management. Since the land-use planning tools are based on multi-objective genetic algorithms (mGAs) it is possible to generate a range of alternative plans that define the structure of the trade-off between the objectives. The workshop tasked the delegates with specifying land-use plans that achieved the best compromise between two objectives known to be non-commensurable and conflicting. The nature of the best compromise was dependent on their individual perspectives. The delegates proposed allocations both as individuals and in researcher-facilitated sub-groups. The mGA allocations were then compared with those derived by delegates and were found to be broadly similar in performance. Differences in the range of allocations considered feasible were explained by the hard and soft constraints on allocations agreed between the delegates and articulated within the workshop process. The hypothesis that part of the difference in performance between the mGA and delegate allocations was due to the delegates blocking together fields with the same land use for convenience of management was proved. The analysis of the group allocations revealed that the decision-making process had failed to improve on the individual allocations. From these results it was concluded that there was a potential role for mGA based land-use planning tools in researching into, and deliberating on, the possible impacts of policy or other factors affecting land-use systems. It was further concluded that the tools should not be used in isolation since there was the need for stake-holder inputs to adequately define the range of feasible and practical land-use plans.     

A tool for community-based assessment of the implications of development on water security in hillside watersheds

Development and population growth in Latin American countries with steep slope farming are likely to further increase pressures on water and land resources. A methodology was developed for assessing water availability and use under different development pathways at a watershed scale to determine whether water security is a potential problem, and if so, under what conditions it is likely to occur. This methodology makes use of a GIS-based spatial water budget model for simulating stream water availability, water use and stream flow control on a daily basis at a watershed scale. Here, we analysed water availability under three plausible development scenarios for the 3246 ha Cabuyal River watershed in southwest Colombia in the year 2025: Corporate Farming (CF), Ecological Watershed (EW), and Business as Usual (BU). Simulated average river flows at the watershed outlet were, respectively, 874, 796 and 925 l s⁻¹ for the CF, EW and BU scenarios. The contribution of base flow to river flow (base flow index) was on average, 80.8, 85.6 and 77.9%, respectively, for the three scenarios. The watershed had the potential to meet the anticipated increase in water use under each explorative scenario. However, dams were necessary to store irrigation water in the CF scenario, otherwise over 60% of the available water would have been used during the dry season. Such a high figure raises concerns about effects on aquatic and riparian ecology, concentrations of potential contaminants, water reserves for especially low rainfall years, and the watershed resilience to meet temporarily higher water needs during the day. Analyses indicated that current water-use conflicts in the watershed can be resolved if irrigation water supply is separated from drinking water supply. This study helped reduce some of the complexity associated with the interdependencies between land and water resources, the impact of using them, and spatial linkages within the watershed. Results of this study can be used for teaching local stakeholders about basic landscape responses and helping multi-institutional alliances to become proactive and to guide development to the benefit of local communities.     

基于林分空间结构分析方法的土壤大孔隙空间结构研究

土壤大孔隙的形成和分布具有重要的生态学意义,但尚未有研究者利用生态学方法研究其空间结构。以三峡库区紫色砂岩区的3种典型土地利用类型下的土壤大孔隙为研究对象,将图像处理技术与林分空间结构分析方法相结合,从形态学和生态学角度量化分析土壤大孔隙的空间结构。结果表明:3种土地利用类型的土壤大孔隙形状、空间结构复杂程度高,空间分布格局随土壤深度的增加均呈聚集分布趋势,且深层土壤的大孔隙组成较表层单一,其中草地最明显,大孔隙发育程度均随土壤深度的增加而降低;3种土地利用类型的土壤优先流发育程度由大到小为:草地、果园、农地,同一土地利用类型不同孔径范围的大孔隙所形成的优先路径的连通性、导水性和发育程度由大到小依次为:草地孔径范围[5.0 mm,∞)、[2.5 mm,5.0 mm)、[1.0 mm,2.5 mm)、(0,1.0 mm),农地和果园孔径范围[1.0 mm,2.5 mm)、[2.5 mm,5.0 mm)、(0,1.0 mm)、[5.0 mm,∞);将林分空间结构分析方法与土壤大孔隙位置密度分布、大孔隙变异度和复杂度指标进行对比,并与以往研究土壤大孔隙空间结构的方法进行比较,所得结果相同,证明该方法可以用于土壤大孔隙空间结构的分析和研究。林分空间结构分析方法简单易行,从生态学的角度完善了大孔隙空间结构的分析,弥补了目前基于物理化学方法在大孔隙结构理论分析的不足,进一步揭示了土壤大孔隙空间结构形成和分布的原因。
