不同海拔和坡向马尾松树轮宽度对气候变化的响应

Responses of radial growth to climate change in Pinus massoniana at different altitudes and slopes

以马尾松树轮样芯为材料,利用树木年代学方法分别建立低海拔(260 m)、中海拔(460 m)、高海拔(690 m)及阳坡(270 m)、阴坡(265 m)处马尾松标准及差值年表,将树轮宽度指数与气候因子进行相关及冗余分析,并建立马尾松径向生长量与气候要素的最优多元回归模型,分析福建将乐地区树木径向生长特征及其与气候的关系随海拔及坡向的变化规律.结果表明:该区域马尾松径向生长在海拔梯度上主要受降水量影响,在坡向水平主要受温度影响;120个气候变量中,上年12月降水量及当年2月极端最低气温分别在海拔及坡向处与马尾松径向生长呈显著负相关.该研究定量描述气候变化对亚热带地区马尾松径向生长的影响,为气候变暖背景下将乐地区马尾松林的栽植及管理提供科学依据.

With dendrochronology method, standard and residual chronologies of Pinus massoniana were established at low altitude(260 m), middle altitude(460 m), high altitude(690 m), sunny slope(270 m), and shady slope(265 m). Relationships between the tree-ring width and the climatic factors were quantified using correlation analysis and redundancy analysis(RDA). The optimal multiple regression models for the radial growth of P. massoniana and the climatic factors were established. We analyzed the change rule of radial growth and its relationship with the climatic factors along with the altitude and slope. The results showed that the radial growth of P. massoniana was significantly affected by precipitation and temperature across the altitude gradient and the slope level, respectively. Among the 120 climatic variables, precipitation in December of last year and the extreme minimum temperature in February of current year had the most significant negative effects on the radial growth at different altitudes and slopes, respectively. This study quantitatively described the impacts of climate change on the radial growth of P. massoniana in the subtropical region, and provided a scientific basis for the planting and management of P. massoniana forest in Jiangle Country under the climate warming background.
