Abstract

Abstract:

Leaf area index (LAI) is one of the most frequently used parameters for analysis of canopy structure. We monitored the seasonality of effective leaf area index (LAI_e) for a Spruce-fir forest at the valley in Xiaoxing'an Mountains by using Digital Hemispherical Photography (DHP) during deciduous season (from July to November). In order to estimate LAI more accurate for the stand, the optically-based effective leaf area index (LAI_e) values of early November were adjusted to eliminate wood elements and clumping effects (including both beyond and within shoots). The adjusted value was regarded as true leaf area index (LAI_t) of evergreen species. The seasonal dynamics of LAI_t were obtained by incorporation of litterfall data for each observation, and we analyzed spatial pattern of LAI_t during the maximum and minimum LAI_t period. Results showed that the mean woody-to-total area ratio (α) was 0.10±0.06 and the mean clumping effect (Ω_E) was 0.90±0.04 in early November for Spruce-fir forest at the valley, and the order of mean needle-to-shoot area ratio (γ_E) for evergreen coniferous species was Pinus koraiensis (1.77)>Picea spp. (1.28)>Abies nephrolepis (1.10). LAI_t decreased with season from July to November, and LAI_t was highest with a value of 3.97 in July, and lowest in November with a value of 2.71. In comparison with LAI_t, LAI_e was underestimated by 32.98% (from 28.81% to 43.24%); The spatial heterogeneity of the LAI_t was greater with the higher LAI_t, and the spatial heterogeneity of LAI_t for July and November resulted mainly from the spatial autocorrelation that accounted for 99.8% and 66.9% of the total space heterogeneity, respectively.

Key words: Xiaoxing’an Mountains, spruce-fir forest at valley, effective leaf area index, leaf area index, calibration, litterfall method
