摘要:

目的: 研究青藏高原东部祁连山地区青海云杉中龄林混交度对各土层细根生物量和形态特征的影响,以期为当地森林恢复和林分经营提供理论依据。方法: 选择混交度分别为0、0.2、0.4和0.6的青海云杉天然中龄林样地,调查混交度对0~20和20~40 cm土层各树种细根生物量密度、比根长、比表面积、根表面积密度和根长密度的影响。结果: 混交度为0.4的青海云杉林以10~25 cm径级(63.72%)、24~32 m高度级(48.72%)和16~20 m高度级(11.18%)乔木占比最大,且均显著高于其他3个混交度的林分;青海云杉林总细根生物量密度主要分布在0~20 cm土层,占细根总量的68.31%~83.49%,其数值随混交度增大呈现先升后降趋势,混交度0.4时最大,为616.26 g·m-3;20~40 cm土层总细根生物量密度随混交度增大而增大,在混交度0.6时最大,为227.17 g·m-3;在0~20 cm土层,细根根长密度和根表面积密度表现为混交度0.4 >混交度0.2 >混交度0 >混交度0.6,比根长和比表面积表现为混交度0.4 >混交度0.2 >混交度0.6 >混交度0;在20~40 cm土层,根长密度、根表面积密度和比根长均表现为混交度0.6 >混交度0.4 >混交度0.2 >混交度0,比表面积表现为混交度0.6 >混交度0.2 >混交度0.4 >混交度0;随混交度增大,云杉对0~40 cm土层林分细根生物量密度、比根长、比表面积、根表面积密度和根长密度的贡献逐渐减小,而白桦对0~40 cm土层林分细根生物量密度、比根长、比表面积、根表面积密度和根长密度的贡献持续增大;混交度对细根根长密度和根表面积密度的影响主要表现在0~1 mm径级细根上。结论: 与其他混交度林分相比,混交度为0.4的青海云杉中龄林具有更合理的径级结构和高度级结构,异龄、复层的林分结构可以减小相邻植株间生态位竞争重叠范围,优化林分空间利用效率,提高群落稳定性,细根生物量密度及细根形态特征如比根长、比表面积、根表面积密度和根长密度达到最大。在未来青海云杉中龄林经营中,合理控制混交度在0.4左右,可促进群落细根发育,利于森林持续健康发育。

Abstract:

Objective: Picea crassifolia is the dominant native species in the northeast Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau, and thus is believed to be important in regulating regional soil and water conservation and carbon cycle. The objective of this research was to investigate the effects of mingling intensity on the dynamics of fine root biomass, morphological characteristics and their impact mechanism in P. crassifolia mixed natural forests. The result would provide a theoretical basis for forest rehabilitation and management in the eastern Tibetan Plateau. Method: A suite of mixed middle-aged P. crassifolia natural forests representing different mingling intensities (0, 0.2, 0.4, and 0.6) were selected in Datong, Xining, eastern Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau of China. Fine root biomass density, specific root length, specific root surface area, root surface area density, and root length density were analyzed from two soil depths (0-20 and 20-40 cm) by taking soil cores. Result: In the P. crassifolia forest of mingling intensity 0.4, the diameter class of 10-25 cm (63.72%), height classes of 24-32 cm (48.72%) and 16-20 cm (11.18%), accounted for the largest proportion of all trees, which are significantly higher than the forests with other 3 mingling intensities. Fine root biomass density was mainly distributed in 0-20 cm soil depth, accounting for 68.31%-83.49% of the total. Values of fine root biomass density in the soil depth of 0-20 cm increased with the increasing mingling intensity and peaked at the mingling intensity of 0.4 (616.26 g·m-3) and then decreased in the mingling intensity of 0.6. Fine root biomass density in the soil depth of 20-40 cm increased with increasing mingling intensity, which peaked at the intensity of 0.6 (227.17 g·m-3). Changes of morphological characteristics of fine root highly depended on the mingling intensity. Specifically, in the soil depth of 0-20 cm, root length density and root surface area density showed as mingling intensity of 0.4 > 0.2 > 0 > 0.6, while specific root length and specific root surface area showed as mingling intensity of 0.4 > 0.2 > 0.6 > 0. In contrast, in the soil depth of 20-40 cm, root length density, root surface area density and specific root length showed the same pattern as mingling intensity of 0.6 > 0.4 > 0.2 > 0, while specific root surface area showed as the mingling intensity of 0.6 > 0.2 > 0.4 > 0. With the increase of mingling intensity, contribution of P. crassifolia to fine root biomass density and morphology such as specific root length, specific root surface area, root surface area density, and root length density gradually reduced, whereas the contribution of Betula platyphylla to that increased in the soil depth of 0-40 cm. The effect of mingling intensity on fine root length density and root surface area density was mainly focused on the finest diameter fine roots (0-1 mm). Conclusion: In the study region of eastern Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, P. crassifolia mixed forest of mingling intensity 0.4 was characterized by proper ratio of height class and diameter class. Meanwhile, uneven-aged and multi-storied forest is benefit to reduce the competition among neighbor trees overlapping and promote the using of forest resources, and thus believed to improve the stability of the forest community in the long run. The amount of fine root biomass density, specific root length, specific root surface area, root surface area density, and root length density maximized at the mingling intensity of 0.4. The result suggested that future management of middle-aged P. crassifolia forest should appropriately control the mingling intensity of 0.4, at which growth of fine roots can be maximized and the utilization of forest resource can be promoted and thus achieving the goal of sustainable development of forest.
