Effects of longitudinal range-gorge terrain on the eco-geographical pattern in Southwest China

China＇s southwestern special terrain pattern as parallel arrangement between lon- gitudinal towering mountains and deep valleys has significant effects on the differentiation of local natural environment and eco-geographical pattern in this region. The 1：50,000 Digital Elevation Model （DEM） data of Longitudinal Range-Gorge Region （LRGR）, meteorological observation data from the station establishment to 2010, hydrological observation data, Normalized Difference Vegetation Index （NDVI） and Net Primary Productivity （NPP） products of MOD13 and MOD17 as well as 1：1,000,000 vegetation type data were used. Moisture in- dices including surface atmospheric vapor content, precipitation, aridity/humidity index, sur- face runoff, and temperature indices including average temperature, annual accumulated temperature, total solar radiation were selected. Based on ANUSPLIN spline function, GIS spatial analysis, wavelet analysis and landscape pattern analysis, regional differentiation characteristics and main-control factors of hydrothermal pattern, ecosystem structure and function in this region were analyzed to reveal the effects of terrain pattern o~ regional dif- ferentiation of eco-geographical elements. The results show that： influenced by terrain pattern moisture, temperature and heat in LRGR have shown significant distribution cllaracteristics as intermittent weft differences and continuous warp extension. Longitudinal mountains and valleys not only have a north-south corridor function and diffusion effect on the transfer of major surface materials and energy, but also have east-west barrier function and blocking effect. Special topographic pattern has important influences on vegetation landscape diversity and spatiat pattern of ecosystem structure and function, which is the main-control factor on vegetation landscape diversity and spatial distribution of ecosystem. Wavelet variance analysis reflects the spatial anisotropy of environmental factors, NDVI and NPP, while wavelet consistency analysis reveals the control factors on spatial distribution of NDVI and NPP as well as the quantitative relationship with control degree. Special terrain pattern in LRGR is the major influencing factor on eco-geographical regional differentiation in this region. Under the combined effect of zonality and non-zonality laws with ＂corridor-barrier＂ functior as the main characteristic, special spatial characteristics of eco-geographical regional system in LRGR is formed.

Research Agenda for Understanding Transboundary Ecosystem Changes and Eco-security in Southwestern China

The longitudinal range-gorge region (LRGR) in Southwestern China, characterized by longitudinal mountain ranges and deep valleys, includes the basins of four major international rivers: the Yuanjiang-Red, Lancang Mekong, Nujiang Salween and Irrawaddy. This region is classified as one of the world’s biodiversity hotspots, and provides an important ecological and economic corridor linking China and Southeast Asian countries. Over the past half century, it has served as a resource base for timber and minerals needed to fuel economic development, which resulted in rapid and drastic changes in ecosystem and species diversity. Proposed and ongoing development programs, such as China’s Great Western Development campaign, Greater Mekong Subregional Economic Cooperation (GMS) and China-ASEAN free trade zone development (“10+1”), threaten to bring unprecedented disturbance to the region’s ecosystems. Present and emerging threats to eco-security have caught tremendous attention worldwide. Therefore, studies on such problems are critical for enhancing ecosystem health and transboundary eco-security. This paper indicates several multi-disciplinary and cross-sector studies on transboundary resources in this region that will meet three major national needs: 1) identifying core scientific issues of ecological development and infrastructure construction in highplateau and mountainous areas for the Western Development campaign; 2) developing maintenance mechanisms and control methodologies for transboundary eco-security and resource base development; 3) providing scientific grounds for multi-lateral diplomacy, trade and economic cooperation, and conflict resolution as part of China’s opening-up to south Asia. The key subjects to be solved include dynamics and major drive forces of this area, ecological effects caused by major projects construction, and transboundary eco-security and its controlling. The research projects proposed in this article will develop theories on ecosystem change and transboundary eco-security, and provide a scientific basis for national and international development strategies.

纵向岭谷区生态系统变化及西南跨境生态安全研究

位于我国西南、以纵向山系和大河为主体特征的纵向岭谷区,其地表主要自然物质、能量输送和人类活动等,表现出明显的“通道—阻隔”作用,产生了复杂多样的关联效应:使其成为亚洲大陆主要的纵向生物走廊、避难所和我国与东南亚重要的生态廊道,拥有北半球除沙漠和海洋外的各类生态系统,是全球生物物种的高富集区和世界级基因库,但其生态脆弱、灾害频发;主导了区内多民族沿河谷分布、在山间盆地聚居的“大分散、小聚居”格局,其社会经济发展地域分异大。因此,该区一直是地学和生物学等研究地表复杂环境系统与生命系统演变规律的关键地区,在全球具有不可替代性;同时,该区资源富集,短期开发行为多、环境退化加剧、贫困普遍,保护与发展矛盾极为突出,在西部具有典型性和代表性。

以Penman Montieth方程分析了西南纵向岭谷区大理、元江、保山、昆明、景洪站46～48年的逐日ET0及其余25个站1961～2000年逐月ET0系列.研究结果表明：日最高温度是年内ET0变化主导因素,年际变化主要受日照时数影响,个别站为最高气温或风速,短期ET0变化与雾无直接关系.利用Mann-Kendall法对各站年际、年内分季节ET0趋势检验,56.7%站点的年ET0呈显著增加趋势,分布于澜沧江耿马-思茅-勐海一带以及横断山区维西、福贡等地.分季节逐日ET0变化趋势为,昆明夏秋季显著下降,景洪冬春季显著增加,元江、保山、大理有增有减.降水量增加、气温升高,蒸发和日照时数减少,导致80%的站ET0呈下降趋势,湿润指数普遍增加.

长江第一弯成因及形成时代探讨

长江第一弯成因及形成时代关系到金沙江—长江水系的形成演化、西南纵向岭谷地理环境演化、青藏高原隆升对周边环境的影响等重大科学问题,故近百年来一直为学术界所关注。本文通过综合考察、地貌和沉积物等的综合分析认为:长江第一弯是在金沙江水系未曾溯源连通至三江口段之前的古金沙江与古冲江河、水洛河的汇流口。长江在三江口袭夺了水洛河,导致水洛河倒流,古金沙江与三江口下的长江贯通,才形成真正的金沙江—长江水系。根据玉龙山强烈隆起时间、周边层状地貌发育年代、中国水系大局形成等进行推断,长江第一弯形成时代为中更新世以来,说明昆黄运动为本区构造地貌—水系发育的重大转型事件。
