Based on the continuous inventory data of forest resources in Zhejiang Province in 2019 and 2021, we used statistical methods such as polynomial regression to analyze the impacts of topography and forest spatial structure on average annual diameter at breast height (DBH) growth of main pioneer tree species in natural broad-leaved mixed forests. The results showed that DBH of Schima superba, Quercus glauca, Quercus fabri, Lithocarpus glaber, Castanopsis eyrei, and Castanopsis sclerophylla were between 5-50.8, 5-41.5, 5-50.8, 5-43.9, 5-55.5, and 5-46.1 cm, respectively. We classified all the trees into three classes based on DBH: small (6-12 cm), medium (12-14 cm), and large (>26 cm). The average annual DBH growth of S. superba and Q. glauca was the highest on semi-shady slope and shady slope, with increases of 2.9%-15.7% and 1.1%-41.2%, respectively. The average annual DBH growth of large-diameter S. superba, L. glaber, C. eyrei and C. sclerophylla decreased with the increase of slope, with a maximum decrease of 27.0% for S. superba, with no significant difference among small- and medium-diameter trees as a whole. The slope position did not affect the annual DBH growth of small-diameter trees, while that of medium- and large-diameter S. superba, Q. glauca, and large-diameter Q. fabri, L. glaber decreased with the change of slope position from downhill, mesoslope, uphill to ridge, with a maximum decrease of 28.1% for L. glabe, and the major-diameter C. eyrei was on the contrary. Appropriate increase in the mingling was beneficial to the average annual DBH growth of medium- and large-diameter trees. Moderate mixing was suitable for S. superba, while low degree mixing and moderate mixing was suitable for Q. glauca, Q. fabri and L. glaber, and intensive mixing was suitable for C. eyrei and C. sclerophylla. No significant difference was observed for minor-diameter trees under the mingling. The neighborhood comparison only had a significant effect on the average annual DBH growth of large-diameter Q. glauca, Q. fabri, and L. glaber, which was significantly higher under subdominance-moderation than moderation-inferiority. The average annual DBH growth in the study area was mainly affected by aspect and mixing degree.
基于2019、2021年浙江省森林资源连续清查数据,选取天然阔叶混交林样地,运用多项式回归等统计方法,分析地形和林分空间结构对主要先锋树种年均胸径生长量的影响。结果表明: 木荷、青冈、白栎、柯、甜槠和苦槠胸径分别介于5～50.8、5～41.5、5～50.8、5～43.9、5～55.5和5～46.1 cm,划分为小径级(6～12 cm)、中径级(14～24 cm)和大径级(>26 cm)3个径级。木荷和青冈的年均胸径生长量分别以半阴坡和阴坡最高,各径级增幅分别为2.9%～15.7%和1.1%～41.2%。随坡度的增加,大径级木荷、柯、甜槠和苦槠年均胸径生长量均降低,木荷降幅最高,为27.0%;而各小、中径级林木整体上无显著差异。坡位对各小径级林木年均胸径生长量整体上无显著影响,而中、大径级木荷、青冈和大径级白栎、柯年均胸径生长量随着从下坡、中坡、上坡到山脊的坡位变化整体上均降低,其中柯降幅最高,为28.1%,甜槠的变化则相反。适当提高混交度有利于中、大径级林木年均胸径生长量的增加,木荷以中度混交为宜,青冈、白栎和柯以低、中度混交为宜,而苦槠和甜槠以强度混交为宜;小径级林木各混交度下无显著差异。大小比数仅对大径级青冈、白栎和柯年均胸径生长量有显著影响,表现为亚优势-中庸下林木年均胸径生长量显著高于中庸-劣势。研究区林木年均胸径生长量主要受到坡向和混交度的影响。.
