新疆焉耆盆地绿洲水盐双梯度下天然植被多样性分异特征

通过对焉耆盆地河畔带、荒漠带、湖畔带土壤水盐及地下水位和天然植被关系的分析,研究了干旱绿洲水盐过程与分异天然植被生长和绿洲生态的影响.结果表明:绿洲天然植被生物多样性取决水盐双梯度影响,盐分不断向湖畔积聚是引起焉耆盆地湖畔生态系统生境恶化的主导因子.绿洲内部河畔带物种多样性与地下水埋深关系表明,在埋深1.5m区域,随着地下水埋深的加大,物种多样性减少;在埋深1.5～3m区域内,随着地下水埋深加大,其物种多样性在增加;而当埋深在3～4m之间时,随着地下水埋深的加大,植物多样性呈明显减少趋势;而在埋深4m区域内,多样性指数波动不大.调查表明,随着埋深的变化,地表的天然植被草本、灌木、乔木也呈现明显的分异,地下水水盐条件制约植被分布、生存和演替,各种植被类型适应不同的地下水位和盐分特征.

Natural Vegetation Diversity Differentiation under Water and Salt Gradients in the Oasis of Yanqi Basin, Xinjiang

Process and differentiation of water and salt are important factors for vegetation growth and oasis ecology,change of which will directly affect the growth and development of the natural vegetation.In this paper,the relationships among soil water and salt,underground water level and the natural vegetation are analyzed for riverside and desertification zones in the Yanqi basin.It is found that vegetation diversity in an oasis depends on both the water gradient and the salt gradient.Salt continuously accumula...
