The little auk Alle alle polaris of Franz Josef Land: a comparison with Svalbard Alle a. alle populations

Breeding biology, nestling growth and development, and biometry of the little auk Alle alle polaris were studied in Franz Josef Land. A total of 103 adult birds were measured, 60 in the field and 43 in the St. Petersburg Museum. The development of 16 chicks was compared with that of Alle a. alle chicks from Spitsbergen. At particular stages of development, both adults and nestlings of A. a. polaris are larger than those of A. a. alle .
In Franz Josef Land the breeding season is more extended and less synchronised than that of Svalbard. The majority of the little auks in the studied colonies in Franz Josef Land nested on steep rocky cliffs, possibly as an adaptation to the severe climatic conditions and heavy mammalian predation in subcolonies located on accessible mountain slopes. Glaucous gulls Larus hyperboreus exerted negligible predatory pressure. This study confirms the existence of morphologically distinguishable populations of the little auk on Franz Josef Land and Svalbard, supported by recent studies of climatic and oceanographic conditions in the two areas that parallel the morphological differentiation.     

阿拉善荒漠典型植物功能群氮、磷化学计量特征

氮（N）、磷（P）作为荒漠生态系统重要的养分元素和限制性因子,在维持植物功能群组成及结构稳定、生态系统内养分循环中发挥着重要的作用。本研究沿水热梯度从东至西在阿拉善荒漠设置52个调查样地,通过对优势植物的调查取样,分析了荒漠植物不同功能（类）群N、P元素的生态化学计量特征,并就N、P含量及N：P值对荒漠植物的限制性作用进行了检验和讨论。结果显示：（1）所调查阿拉善荒漠区植物叶片的N、P含量分别为10.65±7.91 mg·g^-1和1.04±0.81 mg·g^-1,N：P值为11.53±5.06,叶片N含量与P含量及N：P值均显著正相关,P含量与N：P值显著负相关;通过对比分析认为该区植物同时受到N、P双重制约,且更易受N限制。（2）从植物生活型比较,认为草本植物叶片N、P含量均高于灌木植物叶片,而灌木植物叶片的N：P值大于草本植物;对光合作用途径分析发现,C₃植物叶片N含量高于C₄植物叶片,而C₄植物叶片P含量高于C₃植物叶片;从系统发育类型方面分析,认为单子叶植物叶片N含量低于双子叶植物叶片N含量,而P含量则高于双子叶植物叶片P含量。     

推广香根草篱作水土保持措施值得重视的几个问题

1988年以来,我国推广香根草蓠作水土保持措施,收到的水土保持效益甚佳,香根草篱的短处有:经济效益欠佳,与作物争水肥,容易发生病虫害。为使香根草蓠扬长避短,提出的意见有:1.宜在秦岭-伏牛山以南海拔<2000米的地区推广;2.人少地多的山区荒坡地上可大力推广;3.建立香根草与经济作物组成的混合蓠;4.加强香根草病虫害防治研究。     

Comparisons of plant calcium fraction between two different vegetation zones in semi-arid region

To explore the characteristics of plant calcium(Ca) fraction, we analyzed 91 plant species in the Ningxia Habahu National Nature Reserve in Yanchi County of Ningxia and 84 plant species in Zhenglan Banner of Inner Mongolia. Results show that, for the two regions, there is no significant difference between Ca fraction for the same growth type, and between water soluble Ca content or between hydrochloric acid soluble Ca content for plants of the same ecosystem and between hydrochloric acid soluble Ca content for plants of the same family. In similar vegetation zones, there is a significant difference among hydrochloric acid soluble Ca content for different growth types in Yanchi County and Zhenglan Banner,which was the highest for annual herbs and the lowest for perennial herbs. There is a significant difference between acetic acid soluble Ca content and between hydrochloric acid soluble Ca content for sandy land and grassland ecosystems in Yanchi County. There is a significant difference among the same Ca fraction of different families in the same region. Thus, the characteristics of plant Ca fraction are results of long-term adaptation to the environment.     

Respiration of the belowground parts of vascular plants: its contribution to total soil respiration on a successional glacier foreland in Ny-Ålesund, Svalbard

As a part of the study on soil carbon flow in a deglaciated area in Ny-Ålesund, Svalbard (79°N), we estimated the contribution of the belowground respiration of vascular plants to total soil respiration in August 1996. Four study sites were set up along a primary successional series, ranging from newly deglaciated moraine to older moraine with well-developed vegetation cover. Respiratory activity of the belowground parts (roots + belowground stems) of three dominant species. Salix polaris, Saxifraga oppositifolia and Luzula confusa , was determined under laboratory conditions. The respiratory activity and the Q₁₀ value of the respiration were higher in S. polaris than in the other two species. Total soil respiration rates measured in the field varied widely. The areas with dense vegetation cover tended to show high respiration rates. Belowground respiration of vascular plants was estimated based on the respiratory activity and biomass of the belowground parts at each study site. The contribution to the belowground respiration to total soil respiration was negligible in the early stages of succession. On the other hand, the respiration of the belowground parts contributed to a significant proportion (∼29%) of the total soil respiration in the latter stages of succession.     

Propagation of native Arctic and alpine species with a restoration potential

Arctic and alpine plant communities today are subject to an increasing frequency and intensity of anthropogenic disturbances. Good understanding of reproductive behaviour and regenerative capacity of native species is important in a restoration situation following human disturbance in Arctic and alpine vegetation. Seeds, bulbils or cuttings from 12 native Arctic and alpine species were collected from Longyearbyen in Svalbard and Dovre Mountain on the Norwegian mainland. Propagation ability was tested in greenhouse conditions. Seeds of Papaver dahlianum, Oxyria digyna, Luzula arcuata ssp. confusa , and bulbils of Bistorta vivipara all had more than 50% germination. Dryas octopetala had less than 10% germination. Both quick and slow germinators were identified among the tested species. Seed storage temperature (+4 °C, −1 °C and −20 °C) showed no overall effect on germination. The rooting capacity of cuttings from evergreen and deciduous species was tested. Arctostaphylos uvaursi, Empetrum nigrum ssp. hermaphroditum, Vaccinium vitis-idaea, Salix herbacea and S. polaris had more than 70% rooting ability, while Dryas octopetala and Cassiope tetragona had less than 10%. Saxifraga oppositifolia showed large variation in rooting ability, ranging from 20-90%. The species with high germination and rooting ability are used in an extended restoration experiment in the study areas.     

囊果碱蓬离子含量及分布特点

为研究真盐生植物矿质营养特征,以北疆荒漠囊果碱蓬群落为对象,通过土壤及植株调查,分析其矿质元素特征。结果显示：（1）囊果碱蓬的生长增加了0~30cm土壤的pH值、水分及盐份含量,并使盐分在土层重新分布。（2）根系相对于土壤,具有优先吸收K⁺、Mg²⁺ 养分离子的特点;叶片相对于根系,具有优先运输Cl^-、Na⁺、SO₄^2- 盐分离子的特点,同一离子在吸收和运输的选择不一致,与其在整株的功能相关。（3）Cl^-、Na⁺、SO₄^2- 积累于叶片,含量远大于K⁺、Mg²⁺、Ca²⁺ ,Cl^- 和Na⁺ 可能相伴向上运输,K⁺、Ca²⁺、Mg²⁺ 在根、茎、叶保持基本不变的比例。（4）囊果碱蓬属于SO₄ -Cl 盐积累植物,而背景土壤为Cl-SO₄ 型盐土。     

Vegetational development from about 12,000 to 6,000 years B.P. in the counties of Agder and Telemark,South Norway

Sediment cores from several localities in Agder and Telemark are pollen analytically investigated. The immigration of some plant species during the time interval from about 12,000 to 6,000 years B.P. is discussed. The oldest samples contained pollen typical of a pioneer vegetation. The plant immigration is partly ¹⁴C-dated, partly dated only by interpolation or estimation based on the ¹⁴C-dates. From these data, immigration and migration routes are suggested. Betula nana, Salix, Juniperus, Betula, Populus and some herbs immigrated to Vest-Agder from the south or west, Ulmus, Quercus and possibly Tilia platyphylla from the south, Hippophaë and possibly Alnus from the east. It is suggested that Corylus may have come to the area with the first human inhabitants. Perhaps Tilia cordata has more immigration routes. Pinus and Calluna were among the early but not the first immigrants. Their immigration routes arc uncertain.     

Fertilizer Consumption and Energy Input for 16 Crops in the United States

Fertilizer use by U.S. agriculture has increased over the past few decades. The production and transportation of fertilizers (nitrogen, N; phosphorus, P; potassium, K) are energy intensive. In general, about a third of the total energy input to crop production goes to the production of fertilizers, one-third to mechanization, and one-third to other inputs including labor, transportation, pesticides, and electricity. For some crops, fertilizer is the largest proportion of total energy inputs. Energy required for the production and transportation of fertilizers, as a percentage of total energy input, was determined for 16 crops in the U.S. to be: 19–60% for seven grains, 10–41% for two oilseeds, 25% for potatoes, 12–30% for three vegetables, 2–23% for two fruits, and 3% for dry beans. The harvested-area weighted-average of the fraction of crop fertilizer energy to the total input energy was 28%. The current sources of fertilizers for U.S. agriculture are dependent on imports, availability of natural gas, or limited mineral resources. Given these dependencies plus the high energy costs for fertilizers, an integrated approach for their efficient and sustainable use is needed that will simultaneously maintain or increase crop yields and food quality while decreasing adverse impacts on the environment.     

外来入侵植物分布格局及与环境和人为因子的关系——以五个自然保护区为例(英文)

以5个保护区为例来探究外来入侵植物与环境及人为因子间的关系。利用CCA分析了环境变量与外来入侵植物丰度的关系,采用了多元回归得出了与外来入侵植物最为相关的环境与人为因子。结果显示,从泰山自然保护区到丰林自然保护区,外来入侵植物分别为25种、12种、13种、5种、5种,沿着包括纬度、最高温度,最低温度、最高降雨量等环境因子强度的降低而下滑。而同时,外来入侵植物的数量随着人为活动的干扰度增强而增加。从起源上来看,热带成分从31%降至0,而北美起源的植物则逐渐增加。从科的组成上看,五个自然保护区中均有菊科分布,所占比例分别为15%、33%、36%、 40% 和20%,显示了其世界广布的特性,而其他科属入侵植物的分布并不均衡。从生活型上看,一年生或多年生草本植物为主要成分。外来入侵植物的传入途径在很大程度上受人类活动及利用喜好的驱动。     

土壤水分含量对虉草幼苗保护酶与渗透调节物质的影响

以虉草幼苗为试材,通过为期50 d的室内盆栽控水试验,按照土壤水分含量设置7个水分梯度：（10±0.5）%、（15±0.5）%、（20±0.5）%、（25±0.5）%、（30±0.5）%、（40±0.5）%（土壤水分饱和）和51%（淹水2 cm）,研究了不同土壤水分含量对植物的抗氧化酶活性、丙二醛含量、可溶性蛋白含量的影响。结果表明：（1）土壤水分含量在20%~35%之间时SOD （超氧化物歧化酶）活性较高,低于20%和高于35%时,SOD活性下降,且在不同土壤水分含量下试验50 d的SOD活性均大于试验25 d的。（2） CAT（过氧化氢酶）与POD （过氧化物酶）活性达极显著相关p<0.01,均随土壤水分含量的增加呈先大幅下降后平稳再小幅上升的趋势。（3） MDA （丙二醛）含量与SOD活性趋势相反,随土壤水分含量的增加不断下降,在试验25 d时淹水组略有上升。（4）可溶性蛋白在20%~40%之间时含量较高,植株生长状况较好,在干旱和淹水胁迫条件下可溶性蛋白含量呈下降趋势。由此可见：当虉草幼苗受到干旱等胁迫时,虉草幼苗会开启抗氧化酶系统以保护植株组织,可长时间的胁迫或者胁迫超过其耐受范围（土壤水分含量小于20%或处于土壤水分过饱和淹水条件）就会不同程度的破坏植物的防御系统从而影响其生长发育。

北极新奥尔松地区现代污染源及其指示植物研究

分析了采自北极新奥尔松(Ny-lesund)(78°55′N,11°56′E)煤矿开采区水平剖面12个点位上的三种苔原植物Dicranumangustum(苔藓类植物)、Puccinelliaphryganodes(穗状植物)和Salixpolaris(管状植物)及土壤中10种重金属(Hg、Pb、Cd、Cu、Zn、Ni、Fe、Mn、As、Se)及S、TOC的含量。结果显示采矿过程中煤层的暴露是本地区的Hg、Cd、S污染的主要来源。三种分布最广泛、数量最多的苔原植物中苔藓植物Dicranumangustum对重金属元素具有最大的富集能力,位于矿区的Dicranumangustu体内污染元素含量显著高于非矿区部分,这也说明该水平剖面上的元素污染是由当地煤矿开采导致的。同时发现,Dicranumangustum体内元素积累和土壤中元素浓度之间沿水平剖面的变化趋势较一致,能较好地反映本地区的污染状况,可以作为污染监测和指示植物。从全球区域对比来看,北极新奥尔松苔藓体内污染水平显著低于邻近的北欧等工业区,但却是北极地区Hg、Cd和S污染最严重地区,同时也比南极地区高。     

不同地形条件对沙漠植物生长和沙地土壤水分的影响

对沙坡头地区人工植被固定沙地内不同地形条件下土壤水分和植物生长的变化进行了研究。结果表明,沙地土壤水分的变化以及植物生长的变化依照不同的地形条件表现出一定的规律性。沙地土壤水分含量由高至低的变化趋势根据地形条件依次表现为:丘间低地>迎风坡>坡顶>背风坡;灌木植物密度和盖度与土壤水分变化密切相关,由大到小的变化趋势同样为:丘间低地>迎风坡>坡顶>背风坡;而草本植物密度和盖度可能还受结皮等其它环境因素的影响,由大到小的变化趋势为:背风坡>坡顶>迎风坡>丘间低地。     

内蒙古羊草草原呼吸的影响因素分析和区分

利用静态暗箱-气相色谱法在植物生长旺季测算了内蒙古锡林河流域羊草草原的土壤微生物呼吸、土壤呼吸和生态系统呼吸。地温和水分是植物生长旺季呼吸最重要的影响因素。地温在水分条件适宜的情况下可以解释CO₂通量的部分变化(R² = 0.376~0.655)。土壤水分含量也可以解释土壤呼吸和生态系统呼吸的部分变化(R² = 0.314~0.583),但基本不能解释土壤微生物呼吸的变化(R² = 0.063)。即使在较高温度下,较低的土壤水分含量(≤ 5%) 也会显著的抑制CO₂排放。长期干旱后降雨使CO₂通量在高温下迅速增大。基于5 cm地温和0~10 cm土壤水分含量的双变量模型可以解释CO₂通量约70%的变化。观测期间,土壤呼吸占生态系统呼吸的比例介于47.3%~72.4%之间,平均为59.4%;根呼吸占土壤呼吸的比例介于11.7%~51.7%之间,平均为20.5%。由于植物体去除引起的土壤水分含量上升可能使我们对土壤呼吸占生态系统呼吸比例的估计略微偏高,根呼吸占土壤呼吸的比例略微偏低。

本文通过对澜沧江流域热区资源的分析，认为该区种植热带橡胶、香料、咖啡、南药、热果、发展甘蔗、茶叶、建立各种热作基地是开发利用热区资源的主要途径；热作布局应在立体布局和地域布局基础上形成大分散、小集中的专业化布局；热区开发应采取相应的措施和特殊政策。     

北极新奥尔松Austre Lovénbreen冰川退缩迹地不同演替阶段的植物组成与植被群落特征分析

为开展新奥尔松地区苔原植物生长和植被演替对冰川退缩响应的研究,在Austre Lovénbreen冰川(简称A冰川)前沿不同年代冰缘线附近布设了植被样方,调查了样方内植物组成与群落结构。结果表明:(1)A冰川1990年冰缘线代表植被演替的初始阶段,样方内仅出现先锋植物挪威虎耳草(Saxifraga oppositifolia);(2)1936年冰缘线代表冰川退缩长达75年后植被发育的情况,样方内植物种类和个体数明显增多,植被群落以木本植物极柳(Salix polaris)和草本植物黄葶苈(Draba bellii)为主,地衣以寒生肉疣衣(Ochrolechia frigida)和鸡皮衣(Pertusaria sp.)等壳状地衣为主;(3)随着冰川迹地形成时间更长,植被趋向成熟阶段发展,样方内极柳占绝对优势,地衣的物种多样性和盖度显著增加,出现雪黄岛衣(Flavocetraria nivalis)和刺岛衣(Cetraria aculeata)等叶状地衣。初步结果表明冰川退缩迹地上的物种更替明显,群落结构发生着显著变化。     

Agrobiodiversity and Shade Coffee Smallholder Livelihoods: A Review and Synthesis of Ten Years of Research in Central America

We used households as the primary unit of analysis to synthesize agrobiodiversity research in small-scale coffee farms and cooperatives of Nicaragua and El Salvador. Surveys, focus groups, and plant inventories were used to analyze agrobiodiversity and its contribution to livelihoods. Households managed high levels of agrobiodiversity, including 100 shade tree and epiphyte species, food crops, and medicinals. Small farms contained higher levels of agrobiodiversity than larger, collectively managed cooperatives. Households benefited from agrobiodiversity through consumption and sales. To better support agrobiodiversity conservation, our analysis calls for a hybrid approach integrating bottom-up initiatives with the resources from top-down projects.
