The vertical distribution of modern pollen in the southeastern edge of Tibetan Plateau, China
AbstractThe tropical mountainous area of the southeastern Tibetan Plateau (TP) is a hotspot of ecological environment research because of its rich biodiversity. However, limited knowledge regarding modern pollen rain within this area has impeded further investigation research on eco-environmental evolution by using pollen record. Here, we collected 62 modern pollen samples from lowland tropics to the subalpine (740-3550 m a.s.l.) in Medog County, located in the southeastern TP, and performed pollen analysis. Cluster analysis, redundancy analysis, variance partitioning analysis, boosted regression trees were employed to investigate the relationship between pollen and vegetation-climate. Additionally, Hill numbers (N0, N1, N2) and specificity-occupancy plots were utilized to explore plant diversity. The results indicate that modern pollen rain in Medog can reflect well the current characteristics of vegetation, encompassing both primary and secondary features. Pollen of Cyclobalanopsis, Tsuga and Abies, which are dominant components of the primary vegetation above 2100 m a.s.l., can serve as indicator species for palaeovegetation reconstruction. Mean annual precipitation is the most important climatic determinant affecting pollen distribution. Pollen diversity indices reveal that the plant diversity in this study area has a bimodal pattern of “relatively high-low-highest-low” with altitude. The plant diversity above 2100 m a.s.l. is mainly decided by primary vegetation, whereas below 2100 m a.s.l. can be explained by the intermediate disturbance hypothesis. Furthermore, it is advisable to exercise caution when dealing with arboreal pollen evenness in open mountainous environments due to the increased potential pollen source area caused by valley wind.Keywords: Modern pollen rainvegetation-pollen relationshippollen-climate relationshippollen diversityaltitudinal gradientsoutheastern Tibetan PlateauDisclaimerAs a service to authors and researchers we are providing this version of an accepted manuscript (AM).

期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
