黄土高原半干旱区水土保持植被恢复限度——以人工柠条林为例

为了确定水资源不足地区植被恢复潜力和水土保持林建设目标,在黄土丘陵半干旱区宁夏固原上黄试区,对相同立地条件的16年生人工柠条林进行疏伐,建立不同密度林地,进行林分密度、森林植被水土保持效益和土壤水分关系的定位实验。结果表明:平均基径随密度的增加而减少,二者为线性关系;盖度随密度的增加而增大,盖度与密度为对数关系;林冠截留随密度的增加而增大,二者为指数关系;地表径流随密度的增加而减少,二者为对数关系;泥沙含量随密度的减少而增加,二者关系可用倒S形曲线描述。虽然密度增加,盖度增加,森林植被水土保持效益增强,但是受土壤水资源的限制,柠条林有一个最大恢复限度。当超过限度时,势必会引发或加剧土壤旱化。

In order to determine the potential for vegetation rehabilitation and set the goal of soil and water conservation forest in water-shortage region of Loess Plateau,16-year-old artificial Caragana korshinskii Kom stand grown in a reasonably uniform site was selected and thinned to establish different densities of experimental plots,and the experiments of the relationships between density of a stand,forest benefit to conserve soil and water and soil water was conducted in the Caragana korshinskii Kom stand in ...
