摘要
于2010年采用定点连续观测的方法,研究了浑善达克沙地不同树龄(23年生、40年生、56年生)沙地榆孤立木种子雨的数量、组成及散布过程,分析沙地榆种子雨的扩散规律及其与外界环境干扰因子的关系。结果表明:(1)孤立木种子雨的总量随其年龄增长而增加,其中56年生孤立木>40年生孤立木>23年生孤立木,其种子雨的总量分别为(7744±16.26)粒/m2、(5236±18.87)粒/m2、(2456±12.67)粒/m2;(2)40年生孤立木的种子质量较好,成熟种子的比例最高,未成熟、空粒和虫害种子的比例较低,56年生孤立木次之,23年生孤立木质量最差,56年生沙地榆和40年生沙地榆是自然更新种子的主要来源;(3)榆树种子于当年5月下旬开始成熟并于6月初开始脱落,6月中旬达到降落高峰期,落种持续到6月下旬结束,落种期持续近1个月;(4)种子雨的前扩散过程中种子集中降落在主风向的下风向50 m和树冠周围20 m的范围内;(5)在种子的后扩散过程中,种子沿下风向继续运动,散落在下风向50 m范围或更远处,后扩散对前扩散表现为"削锋"作用。
Seed dispersal is an important stage in life style of plant population, the diffusion Pattern of seed directly affect the seedling colonization, distribution and the main resource of propagule. The production of seed is mainly controlled by the seed yield characteristic of tree species, but the seed dispersal not only connected with the tree species, but also with the various environmental disturbance factors. There are difference of seed dispersal pattern among species even, even within population.The characteristic of seed rain directly affect the size, quality, pattern and the reproductive of young seedling. Elm woodland-steppe is spread in the typical temperate steppe zone. Sand elm is the top community which adapt well to the semiarid and sub-humid sandy. Sand elm in Otindag Sand Land can protect the local environment effectively. But with the decrease of population of Sand elm recently, the stability and sustainable development will be hindered. Therefore, there has an imperative require for the population renewal strategies and vegetation restoration when considering the seed rain spatial and temporal distribution features.
Through observing the seed rain's quantity, composition and dissemination process for different age isolation elm wood in Otindag Sand Land, we try to illuminate the diffusion rule of seed rain and the relationship between the diffusion of seed rain and the external environment by continuous observation in original position. By selected the different ages of sand elm wood (23 years, 40 years and 56 years) located in Otindag Sandy Land, the seed rain's quantity, composition, distribution process and the relationship between the disperse rule of seed rain and the environmental factors. The study area is located in the middle of Otindag Sandy Land in Sang Genda town attached to Zhenglan Banner(N42°41'-43°43',E115°57'-115°59'). The experiment was conduced continuously from 18th May to the end of 2th July 2010. We selected three kind of wood isolated with different a
