以塔克拉玛干沙漠南缘策勒绿洲-沙漠过渡带为研究区,在半固定沙地、半流动沙地和流动沙地选择了3个50 m×50 m的典型样地,分别代表轻度、中度和强度3种沙埋条件。每个样地内确定植物种类组成,测定两种建群种植物的高度和冠幅,同时对相应的灌草丛沙堆进行形态测量;利用全站仪采集所有植物的空间点坐标数据,运用Ripley’s [K(t)]函数点格局分析,研究沙埋对两种建群种植物特征与格局的影响。结果表明:随着沙埋强度的增加,疏叶骆驼刺和花花柴两个建群种植株数量减小,数量比例从以花花柴为主向以骆驼刺为单优势种群方向发展,死亡植株比例从半固定沙地的14.5%升高到流动沙地的40.3%;疏叶骆驼刺和花花柴植株高度和冠幅从半固定沙地到半流动沙地有所降低,但疏叶骆驼刺在流动沙地中又表现出增加趋势;对应的灌草丛沙堆体积随沙埋强度增加而变大,沙堆形态从多种类型并存向带有风影沙尾的蝌蚪形为主转变;花花柴和骆驼刺均以聚集分布应对风积沙埋的威胁,两种植物的种群间关系并不明显。总体来看,风积沙埋有碍于两种建群种植物的繁殖与生长,但骆驼刺具有更强的耐沙埋能力,特别是在流动沙地中留存下来的骆驼刺植物单体明显大于半固定和半流动沙地。集群分布的植物沙堆往往从基部合并,导致相对密集的植物分布区总与局部凸起的地形相对应,是风沙环境中植物群体与风积沙埋相互作用的结果。  相似文献

柽柳灌丛沙堆三维流场随背景植被变化的风洞实验   总被引:2,自引:1,他引:1  
以塔克拉玛干沙漠南缘沙漠-绿洲过渡带广泛分布的柽柳灌丛沙堆及丘间地植物为原型,依据风沙运动相似理论,制作5组背景植被盖度灌丛沙堆模型,在风洞中进行风流场变化规律模拟实验。结果表明:柽柳沙堆三维流场结构可划分为6个区域,即沙堆前减速区、沙堆迎风坡加速区、沙堆两侧急流区、沙堆背风侧强涡流区、沙堆后尾流恢复区和沙堆上空混合加速区。灌丛沙堆对流场结构影响范围为沙堆前10H到沙堆后14H区段,旁侧影响宽度不超过沙堆宽度的3/4,垂直方向上主要影响灌丛沙堆总高度相对应的下方区域,最大不超过灌丛沙堆总高度的2倍。风速变化不构成对流场结构的影响,但背景植被变化对流场结构影响明显。随着植被盖度增大,沙堆前减速区和沙堆后尾流恢复区范围扩大,两侧急流区和背风侧涡流区范围缩小。背景植被的出现明显降低了其所在高度层的风速,柽柳沙堆各分区地表加速率均随背景植被盖度呈指数规律下降,当植被盖度在16%时加速率变化趋于平缓。从维护绿洲安全的角度出发,根据风沙动力学原理可将16%视为灌丛沙堆科学保育中可能的临界背景植被覆盖值。  相似文献

白沙蒿(Artemisia sphaerocphala)灌丛沙堆是乌兰布和沙漠最为广泛分布的典型荒漠灌丛沙堆之一。本研究对白沙蒿灌丛的灌丛形态参数、沙堆形态参数进行了野外测定,探讨沙堆形态发育及固沙能力与白沙蒿灌丛形态的关系。结果表明:白沙蒿灌丛高度随着灌丛半径的增加而呈对数曲线增加,在灌丛较小时灌丛高度增长较快,随后渐趋于稳定,其水平方向发育速度大于垂直方向;白沙蒿灌丛沙堆半径及高度随灌丛半径和高度增加而增加,二者呈显著线性关系,沙堆水平方向发育受到灌丛冠幅的影响,沙堆垂直方向的发育水平取决于灌丛高度;随白沙蒿地上部分鲜重的增加,灌丛沙堆底面积、高度、沙堆体积和固沙效率均呈极显著线性增加(p0.01);白沙蒿灌丛越大其固积沙堆也越大,固沙率越高,不同大小灌丛白沙蒿间的固沙效率差异显著(p0.05);白沙蒿灌丛背风侧的积沙宽度(y)与积沙距离(x)显著相关(R2=0.9917),其线性回归方程为y=-19.654x+122.41,在距离灌丛背风面6~7倍高度的地方,积沙接近消失。  相似文献

沙漠-绿洲过渡带天然植被具有良好的防风阻沙效益,对绿洲内部农田起到重要生态保护作用。在新疆策勒沙漠-绿洲过渡带流沙地、半固定沙地、绿洲边缘固定沙地6个不同植被覆盖度样地风蚀、风积变化观测基础上,结合地表风速数据,探讨流沙地、半固定沙地、固定沙地不同植被覆盖度和地形下地表风蚀风积变化特征及其影响因素。结果表明:流沙地表现出较强烈的地表风蚀;半固定沙地整体表现出强烈的地表风积;固定沙地上植被覆盖度越高、植株越高和排列方式越均匀、整体地势越低,单位面积风积量也就越大、风蚀量越小,风蚀主要发生在灌丛沙堆的上风向、侧翼、背风风向的裸低凹沙地表面,较高沙堆侧翼的地表风蚀量最大。植被覆盖度与单位面积风蚀量呈多项式或指数函数关系递减,植被覆盖度与单位面积风积量不呈函数分布,说明除了植被覆盖度外,植株类型、高度、排列方式、地形等都会对地表风积量产生一定影响。  相似文献

和田河流域灌(草)丛沙堆的形态特征与发育过程   总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5  
灌 (草)丛沙堆形态是由区域植物、风力和沙源相互作用塑造的一种动力平衡形态。本文在对新疆和田河流域灌 (草)丛沙堆野外考察、形态测量和统计分析的基础上,探讨了该区灌 (草)丛沙堆的形态变化规律和不同发育阶段的特征,结果表明:各种灌 (草)丛沙堆的长度、宽度与高度之间存在着较好的相关性,但不同种类灌 (草)丛沙堆以及同一类型沙堆在不同发育阶段的形态特征存在一定差异;基于沙堆形态特征的数学模型分析,并结合区域生态环境和风沙环境特点,可把灌 (草)丛沙堆发育划分为各形态指标协同变化的增长阶段,以植物动力影响为主、长宽尺度均衡发展、坡度较大的稳定阶段,以及沙堆长度相对缩短、各形态指标关系趋于复杂的风蚀衰退阶段。  相似文献

 被长期质疑的绿洲-荒漠过渡带在不断观测和丰富积累的基础上让我们有了一个完整的认识。以策勒绿洲为例对其进行剖析,作为绿洲-荒漠过渡带的一种典型类型,绿洲-沙漠过渡带可以界定为自绿洲边缘(人工防护体系或天然稀疏灌木林边界)到植被盖度为20%~25%的固定-半固定沙地为外缘边界(绿洲与流动沙漠之间)的荒漠地带。过渡带的内缘边界为绿洲外缘的人工防护体系,包括防风阻沙林带或天然稀疏灌木林。过渡带形成是因为从绿洲到外部荒漠存在水热环境因子的梯度变化,导致植被、土壤、地貌等综合景观展现出过渡特征,其组成与结构模式为:由绿洲向沙漠方向,稀疏灌木林(或边缘防护林体系)地-缓起伏灌草沉沙地-起伏灌丛沙堆和高起伏灌丛沙堆地。过渡带是乡土动植物重要的保留与保护地,是绿洲与沙漠间能流物流输送交换的缓冲带、绿洲的天然生态屏障,对地貌、土壤以及植被具有保护功能,且具有重要的固碳作用。  相似文献

风蚀沙埋是风沙活动区植物生长发育面临的重要干扰因子。以塔克拉玛干沙漠南缘策勒绿洲-沙漠过渡带主要建群种疏叶骆驼刺(Alhagi sparsifolia)和花花柴(Karelinia caspica)幼苗为研究对象,通过控制试验设置对照、1/3 H(H为林高)沙埋、2/3 H沙埋、3/3 H沙埋、风蚀2cm、风蚀5cm和风蚀10cm等7个处理,测定处理后2种植物幼苗的丙二醛、可溶性糖、叶绿素含量和光合参数,系统研究这2种植物幼苗对风蚀沙埋的生理响应。结果表明:(1)风蚀沙埋后,花花柴幼苗体内丙二醛累积,造成膜损伤,而疏叶骆驼刺幼苗的丙二醛含量变化不大。(2)沙埋胁迫下疏叶骆驼刺幼苗的叶绿素含量升高,而风蚀胁迫下叶绿素含量降低。3/3 H沙埋下花花柴叶绿素含量显著升高,其他风蚀沙埋处理下叶绿素含量均降低。(3)风蚀沙埋处理下,疏叶骆驼刺幼苗的光合速率升高,而花花柴幼苗的光合速率降低,可见疏叶骆驼刺幼苗耐风蚀沙埋的能力强于花花柴幼苗。  相似文献

白刺灌丛沙堆形态与沉积特征   总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11  
白刺灌丛沙堆在我国西北干旱区分布广泛,但对其的研究程度较低.选择沙漠、戈壁和荒漠草地三种生境下发育的白刺灌丛沙堆,通过典型样方(100 m×100 m)调查和采样分析,探讨了沙堆形态、沉积物特征及其控制因素.在三个样区,沙堆总底面积和总体积从小到大依次为戈壁、沙漠、荒漠草地,沙堆密度从小到大的顺序为荒漠草地、沙漠、戈壁,表明植物生长状况和沙源是控制沙堆单体规模的主要因素.沙堆形态参数之间的相关分析结果显示,在三种生境下沙堆水平尺度与高度之间存在良好的二次多项式相关,且目前的沙堆尚处在垂向增长阶段.灌丛沙堆沉积物粒度组成以细砂为主,其粘土、粉沙和粗砂含量均少于丘间地,表明灌丛沙堆沉积物属短距离风力搬运、分选产物.沙堆表层沉积物平均粒径由迎风坡脚至背风坡脚趋于变细,由沙堆顶部垂直向下至底部趋于变粗但变化不明显.  相似文献

This study investigates whether women's short commutes should be interpreted as constrained or convenient work trips by examining how race, gender, travel mode, occupation, residential location, workplace location, and Inc.ome affect commuting time. The analysis is restricted to a sample of European American and African American male and female workers residing in Buffalo, New York, and the surrounding county using data drawn from the Public Use Microdata Samples of the 1990 U.S. census. Given the pervasive gender wage gap, women unsurprisingly have more compromised (short commutes to low-Inc.ome jobs) work trips than do men. Multivariate analysis reveals that among those who reverse commute to suburban locations, African American women have the longest work trips.  相似文献

We chose five communities, representing a mild to severe gradient of grassland desertification in a semi-arid area of Ordos Plateau, northwestern China, to explore the spatial relationships among plant species, above-ground biomass (AGB), and plant nutrients (N and P). Community 1 (C1) was dominated by Stipa bungeana; Community 2 (C2) by a mix of S. bungeana and the shrub Artemisia ordosica; Community 3 (C3) by A. ordosica; Community 4 (C4) by a mix of Cynanchum komarovii and C. komorovii; and Community 5 (C5) by C. komorovii. Quantitative methods, including geostatistics, were used to compare community composition, structure, and indicators of ecosystem function (i.e. AGB, plant N and P) in five 16-m2 plots. The highest AGB, plant nitrogen (N) and plant phosphorus (P) were found in lightly degraded community C2. With increasing desertification effects from C3 to C5, the AGB, N, and P decreased significantly while plant density remained unchanged. The spatial variations of AGB were higher in shrub-dominated communities (C1 and C5) than in grass-dominated communities (C2–C4). Strong spatial relationships were detected within and among the communities, with stronger relationships between AGB and density than between AGB and species richness. Spatial patterns of plant N and P were different from those of AGB, reflecting different N and P contents of individual plants and different species that can redistribute soil resources in these communities. The AGB was positively correlated with soil nutrients (TOC, TN, TP, and IN), except for soil AP. We concluded that several specific aspects of ecosystem properties were directly associated with the conversion of the grass and shrub “functional types” in these degraded grasslands.  相似文献

A prospective lithochemical survey (scale 1:50,000) was carried out at the Um Garayat gold mine area within the central wadi Allaqi shear zone. The metavolcanic samples were analyzed for Ti, P, Zr, Nb, Y, La, Nd, and Ce. The background and threshold values were determined using histograms, box-plots, and Q-mode cluster analysis. Discriminant analysis classifies the samples into four groups: Group 1 (Au mineralization) characterizes Phase III of the hydrothermal stage; Group 2 (Cu?CAu mineralization) characterizes Phases I and II; Groups 3 and 4 comprise the least altered samples. Cubic trend surface and residual maps display groups of elements: (P, Ti, Zr), (Nb, Y), and (La, Nd, Ce) each group has similar areal distribution pattern. R-mode factor analysis, using the cubic residuals, produces a model with three factors. Factors 1 (P, Ti, Zr) and 2 (Nb, Y) are referred to the magmatic minerals of the least altered volcanic rocks. In addition, Factor 1 associates with the Au-rich site at the shafts area, whereas Factor 2 is referred to albitization western to the shafts area with high contents of Nb and Y. In Factors 1 and 2, major P and Ti with traces Nb and Y are attributed to the accessories rutile, sphene, anatase, and calcite that were developed during propylitization as well as apatite and calcite-accompanying Phase I of the hydrothermal stage. Phosphorous could be considered as an indicator element for the Au mineralization at the study area. The principal elements of Factor 3 (La, Nd, Ce) associate with the Cu?CAu-rich site at the southern adits area, and attributed to the secondary Ca-bearing accessories calcite, sphene, and apatite. In general, these elements associate with the regional propylitization and the three phases of hydrothermal stage in zones of alkali metasomatism. In these alteration zones, La, Nd, and Ce could be used as indicators during geochemical exploration at the study area. In general, the secondary accessory minerals calcite, apatite, rutile, sphene, and anatase associating with zones of alkali metasomatism are significant carriers for the investigated elements. These accessories are possible indicators during geochemical exploration in the adjacent similar mineralizations of the central Allaqi shear zone area.  相似文献

Neoliberal restructuring in Morocco has been taking place for over twenty years. Beginning with a decade of structural adjustment, from the early 1980s to the early 1990s, parts of the public sector have been privatized, state services such as health care and education reduced, tariffs lowered and exports heavily promoted. In the dryland agricultural areas, a declensionist colonial environmental narrative has been appropriated to help justify and implement the neoliberal goals of land privatization and the intensification of agricultural production in the name of environmental protection. This paper contributes to areas of growing interest for geographers through an analysis of the underexplored relationship between neoliberalism and environmentalism, in the form of questionable environmental narratives, in Morocco. Land degradation in the dryland agricultural areas of Morocco is commonly blamed on overgrazing by local pastoralists despite existing documentation that suggests instead that ploughing of marginal lands and over-irrigation are the primary drivers of land degradation in the region. The deployment of this colonial environmental narrative of 'native improvidence' has facilitated an expansion of state power over collective rangelands under neoliberalism at the same time that government involvement has decreased in other sectors. The effects of neoliberalism in Morocco have been complex and thus the paper argues that current neoliberal reforms such as the Morocco–US free trade agreement need to be scrutinized carefully to prevent a further exacerbation of poverty as well as to prevent further land degradation in these areas.  相似文献

This study examines the experiences of geography graduates who work in business, government, and nonprofit organizations. We analyzed 352 logs from eighty-two professionals detailing professional activities, challenges, and opportunities during one work week each month, over a period of six months. Our analysis explores interpersonal relationships and working conditions affecting participants’ progress toward work goals, workplace climate, and professional identity. Geographic information systems and technology accounted for more than half of the geographic skills respondents reported using on the job, and administrative and leadership factors were the most commonly cited types of transferable skills. Professional geographers value collaborative workplaces as well as opportunities to work independently with the confidence of their supervisors, and their sense of a professional identity is enhanced when they feel valued and are recognized for their work. Professional development activities are important because they reinforce geographers’ sense of positively contributing to their organizations, enhance interpersonal interactions, facilitate work on specific projects, and expand individuals’ knowledge and skills. Moreover, our findings suggest that nearly half of the reported workplace difficulties could potentially be reduced or eliminated as a result of more and better professional development. Nonetheless, many employers do not consistently provide opportunities for professional development to their employees. Based on our analysis, we contend that professional development is a beneficial investment for lifelong learning, from undergraduate and graduate education throughout the entire course of a professional career.  相似文献

The recent (1950–1996) varve record from the proximal sediments in Nicolay Lake, Cornwall Island, Nunavut, Canada (77°46′ N, 94°40′ W) contains distinct subannual rhythmites. Deposition of these subannual rhythmites is due primarily to nival snow melt, with additional sedimentary units resulting from major summer precipitation and subaqueous mass wasting events. In order to evaluate the potential hydroclimatic signal contained in the varves from the unglacierized catchment, the nival deposition record was estimated by delineating the initial subannual rhythmite within each varve. When the record is split into temporal segments based on two phases that exhibit different sediment deposition patterns in the lake, the nival rhythmites are significantly correlated to annual cumulative melting degree days (MDD) from the nearest weather station Isachsen (78°47′ N, 103°32′ W) (1950–1962 AD and 1963–1977 AD with r = 0.55 and r = 0.82, respectively). A similar analysis with data from Resolute (74°43′ N, 94°59′ W) yields slightly weaker correlations (1950–1962 AD, r = 0.60; 1963–1994, r = 0.59). The strong positive correlation with both the Isachsen and Resolute thermal records suggests that the paleoclimatic signal in the sediments reflects regional climate conditions. Notably, the signal is strongest when the entire melt season is considered; weaker correlations with instrumental weather records are associated with comparisons limited to the peak melt or early season melt periods. We attribute this to the ongoing supply of snowmelt through the season in this polar region and the availability of sediment for transport throughout the melt season. These results indicate that a high resolution hydroclimatic signal is present in the sediments from Nicolay Lake and can be used for paleoclimate reconstruction provided sedimentary depositional controls are taken into account.  相似文献
