Various jurisdictions in Canada are currently undertaking, or have recently completed, planning exercises as part of implementation
and expansion of representative reserve networks (networks of provincial parks, national parks, ecological reserves, etc.).
These exercises have resulted in recommendations to governments about which areas of land should be set aside as protected
areas, and different levels of government have been involved in the process of land acquisition. In some cases, planning exercises
have included implementation of new protected areas to complement existing reserve networks. Many of these exercises have
applied principles such as complementarity, using heuristic algorithms that are well-described in the literature. These planning
exercises may be conducted within politically or ecologically bounded target regions of varying extents. Here, I develop candidate
locations for representative reserve areas for disturbance-sensitive mammals across Canada. I use ecologically bounded regions
(within the national boundaries of Canada) at three different levels of spatial hierarchy: mammal provinces, ecozones, and
ecoregions. I show that the extent of the target region has an effect on the minimum number of protected areas required to
achieve representation; a larger region requires fewer protected areas than the sum of the protected areas required to represent
its component regions at a lower level of spatial hierarchy. The results illustrate that selection of sites for inclusion
in a reserve network is highly scale-dependent, and different spatial extents in the target regions may introduce inefficiencies
or redundancies in selecting representative protected areas. 相似文献

Scaling up ecosystem processes from plots to landscapes is essential for understanding landscape structure and functioning
as well as for assessing ecological impacts of land use and climate change. This study illustrates an upscaling approach to
studying the spatiotemporal pattern of ecosystem processes in the Changbai Mountain Nature Reserve in northeastern China by
integrating simulation modeling, GIS, remote sensing data, and field-based observations. The ecosystem model incorporated
processes of energy transfer, plant physiology, carbon dynamics, and water cycling. Using a direct extrapolation scheme, the
patch-level ecosystem model was scaled up to quantify the landscape-level pattern of primary productivity and the carbon source-sink
relationship. The simulated net primary productivity (NPP) for the entire landscape, consisting of several ecosystem types,
was 0.680 kg C m−2 yr−1. The most widely distributed ecosystem type in this region was the mixed broad-leaved and Korean pine (Pinus koraiensis) forest, which had the highest NPP (1.084 kg C m−2 yr−1). The total annual NPP for all ecosystem types combined was estimated to be 1.332 Mt C yr−1. These results suggest that the Changbai Mountain landscape as a whole was a carbon sink, with a net carbon sequestration
rate of about 0.884 Mt C yr−1 for the study period. The simulated NPP agreed reasonably well with available field measurements at a number of locations
within the study landscape. Our study provides new insight into the relationship between landscape pattern and ecosystem processes,
and useful information for improving management practices in the Changbai Mountain Nature Reserve, which is one of the most
important forested landscapes in China. Several research needs are discussed to further refine the modeling approach and reduce
prediction uncertainties. 相似文献

Crop scientists are often interested in canopy rather than leaf water estimates. Comparing canopy fluxes for multiple treatments using micrometeorological approaches presents limitations because of the large fetch required. The goal of this study was to compare leaf-scale to field-scale data by summing soil water evaporation (E) and leaf transpiration (T) versus ET using tower eddy covariance (EC) and scaling leaf transpiration to the canopy level using a two-step scaling approach in soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.]. Soybean transpiration represented 89-96% of E + T when combining the soil water evaporation with leaf transpiration on the five measurement days during reproductive growth. Comparing E + T versus ET from the EC system, the E + T method overestimated ET from 0.68 to 1.58 mm. In terms of percent difference, the best agreement between the two methods was 15% on DOY 235 and the worst agreement occurred on DOY 234 (41%). A two-step scaling method predicted average ET within 0.01 mm of the EC ET between 10:00 and 14:15 on an hourly time-step on DOY 227 under uniform sky conditions and average ET within 0.03 mm of the EC ET on DOY 235 under intermittent sky conditions between 10:00 and 15:15. Pooling the scaled-leaf data and comparing them with the measured EC ET data exhibited a strong linear relationship (r = 0.835) after accounting for bias (6%). Findings from this study indicate satisfactory results comparing absolute differences are likely not obtainable by summing leaf transpiration with soil water evaporation to calculate canopy water fluxes. However, scaling leaf transpiration provided a robust measure of canopy transpiration during reproductive growth in soybean under these conditions and merits additional study under different climatic and crop conditions. 相似文献
