摘要

很少有研究对马达加斯加具有高度特有性的森林的结构和动态进行评估。安卡拉凡茨卡国家公园(Ankarafantsika National Park)拥有马达加斯加西北部仅存的最大的原始干燥森林,那里的大部分森林都因火灾和其他人类活动而消失或退化。在这片原始森林中,我们建立了一个占地 15 公顷的森林动态监测小区,并对所有胸径 (DBH) ≥5 厘米的木质茎干进行了测绘和鉴定。林分的特点是个体小(75%的茎干直径为 10 厘米,99%的树木高度为 15 米),包括 35 758 个树木个体和 513 个藤本植物个体,隶属于 53 个科 160 个物种(包括 20 个藤本植物物种,占茎干的 1.4%)。物种最丰富的科是茜草科、豆科、唇形科和锦葵科,共包括 43 个树种,占所有树木个体的 23%。地块位于海拔150米至200米的白沙山丘上,从西南向东北缓缓倾斜。在这一海拔梯度上,茎干密度和物种多样性随海拔升高而增加,而树高和直径则有所下降。数量最多的两个物种--Drypetes perrieri(普兰乔木科)和 Noronhia alleizettei(油橄榄科)--是常绿植物,这表明了养分保护策略的重要性。这些结果为保护和恢复天然半落叶干燥森林提供了必要的基础知识,直到最近,这些森林一直覆盖着马达加斯加西北部的大片地区。

Topographical gradient of the structure and diversity of a woody plant community in a seasonally dry tropical forest in northwestern Madagascar

Few studies have evaluated the structure and dynamics of forests in Madagascar with high levels of endemism. Ankarafantsika National Park holds the largest of the remaining primary dry forests in northwestern Madagascar, where most of the forests have been lost or degraded by fire and other human activities. In this primary forest, we established a 15-ha forest dynamics monitoring plot and mapped and identified all woody stems with a diameter at breast height (DBH) ≥5 cm. The forest stand was characterized by small-sized individuals (75% of stems with DBH <10 cm, with 99% of trees with height <15 m), encompassing 35,758 tree and 513 liana individuals belonging to 160 species in 53 families (including 20 species of lianas accounting for 1.4% of the stems). Most species-rich families were Rubiaceae, Fabaceae, Lamiaceae, and Malvaceae, which together encompassed 43 tree species and 23% of all tree individuals. The plot was located on a hill consisting of white sand at elevations from 150 to 200 m, with a gentle slope down from southwest to northeast. Over this elevation gradient, stem density and species diversity increased with elevation, while tree height and diameter decreased. The most abundant two species, Drypetes perrieri (Putranjivaceae) and Noronhia alleizettei (Oleaceae) are evergreen, suggesting the importance of a nutrient conservation strategy. These results provide the foundational knowledge necessary for the conservation and restoration of natural semi-deciduous dry forests that used to cover large areas in northwestern Madagascar until recently.
