英文摘要 | In montane systems, there are normally significant spatial differences in vegetation community structure and ecological processes due to the complex topography. The study of such topographic effect can provide scientific basis for the prediction of vegetation dynamics. In this work, the effects of altitude and slope aspect on species richness and flowering phenology of herbaceous communities were investigated in Qilian Mountains, a typical mountainous region in arid climate zones of China. Our monitoring of 102 plots in 34 sites revealed that there were significant topographic effects on species richness and flowering phenology. Specifically, the results showed a spatial pattern that the average number of species in plots was slightly higher at middle altitudes, and was higher on shady than sunny slopes. In flowering phenology, the flowering onsets of low-altitude and sunny-slope communities are generally earlier than that of high-altitude and shady-slope communities, respectively, while the ending dates of flowering between slope aspects and between altitudes are relatively small. This topographic effect revealed the influences of temperature and soil moisture on community structure and flowering phenology, which is reflected in the inverse responses of species richness to temperature and soil water content, and the high sensitivity of flowering phenology to temperature. It can be inferred that under the conditions of climate warming and wetting in the future, the species diversity of herbaceous community may increase at high altitudes, and the flowering duration is likely to be further prolonged in Qilian Mountains. |
