摘要

在美国国际开发署资助的巴基斯坦森林研究所的项目下,桉树于20世纪80年代首次在巴基斯坦种植。它不是巴基斯坦环境的原生物种,所以它已经成为生态系统的威胁。成熟的桉树形状像灌木或高树。它的中心是一些争议,如化感作用,土壤肥力丧失,替代传统森林和造成生态系统的各种水文生态失衡。在干旱和半干旱环境中,桉树消耗的水分是干旱和半干旱环境的三倍多,因为蒸汽压不足。巴基斯坦大约80%的地区属于半干旱和干旱气候。巴基斯坦正面临着严重的水资源短缺,该国许多地区的地下水位迅速枯竭。人们认为,桉树提取的地下水比补给的水多。因此,本研究旨在确定桉树人工林对拉合尔地下水位的不利影响。拉合尔的六个公园被选为研究地点,分别是Gulshan-e-Iqbal公园、Bagh-e-Jinnah公园、Jillani公园、Nawaz Sharif公园、Jallo公园和Johar Town公园。共鉴定出不同年龄组的桉树3484棵。这些树属于桉树,桉树柠檬香和桉树sideroxylone。研究表明,自1990年以来,研究地点的地下水位明显下降。建议用其他本地树种代替桉树,以减缓地下水枯竭的速度。

Assessing the Impact of Eucalyptus Plantation on Groundwater Availability in Pakistan
Eucalyptus tree was first planted in Pakistan in the 1980s under the project of Pakistan Forest Institute sponsored by United States Agency for International Development. It is not native to Pakistan's environment, so it has become a threat to the ecosystem. A mature Eucalyptus tree shape is like a shrub or tall tree. It is centered by the number of controversies like allelopathy, loss of soil fertility, the substitution of conventional forests and causing various hydro-ecological imbalances of an ecosystem. Eucalyptus tree consumes three times more water in arid and semi-arid environments, because of vapor pressure deficit. About 80% of Pakistan's area is present in the semi-arid and arid climate. Pakistan is facing a serious water shortage and rapid groundwater level depletion in many parts of the country. It is believed that species of Eucalyptus tree are extracting more groundwater than water recharge. Therefore, the present study is conducted to identify the adverse impacts of Eucalyptus plantation on the groundwater level of Lahore. Six parks in Lahore were selected as study sites, i.e., Gulshan-e-Iqbal Park, Bagh-e-Jinnah, Jillani Park, Nawaz Sharif Park, Jallo Park, and Johar Town Park. A total of 3,484 Eucalyptus trees were identified with different age groups. These trees belong to the species of Eucalyptus camaldulensis, Eucalyptus citriodora and Eucalyptus sideroxylone. The study reveals that since 1990, the groundwater level has significantly reduced in study sites. It is recommended that Eucalyptus trees may be replaced with other indigenous species so that the rate of groundwater depletion can be slowed down.
