马尾松;强度采伐;密度效应;生长动态

马尾松(PinusmassonianaLamb.) 是我国南方亚热带地区分布最广、资源最多的松类树种,不仅具有很高的经济价值,而且在森林生态系统恢复和重建中发挥着重要作用[1]。桂西南地区热量丰富、雨量充沛且雨热同季,是马尾松高产区之一;然而,由于大面积成片马尾松纯林经营,出现虫害频发、生态功能下降等问题[2]。为解决马尾松虫害问题,中国林业科学研究院热带林业实验中心(以下简称热林中心) 自2005年以来,陆续开展了马尾松人工林近自然化改造的探索,方法是选择适宜的采伐强度,在林下套种乡土阔叶树进行马尾松人工纯林近自然化改造,促进其向马尾松-阔叶异龄林的转变,并加快马尾松大径材培育速度。本研究于2007年,对热林中心14年生马尾松人工林开始进行近自然化改造的不同强度采伐试验,定期开展生长观测,以期揭示不同强度采伐下马尾松林分的生长动态,为完善马尾松人工林近自然经营提供参考。

早在19世纪,瑞士和斯洛文尼亚即开展近自然森林经营研究,Schütz[3]研究了近自然化改造100年后的欧洲橡树林,发现近自然森林经营能很好地解决采伐和天然更新等经营问题。Ward[4]对北美红栎(QuercusrubraL.) 及Miller[5]对北美红栎 、山栎(QuercusprinusL.) 、美国黑樱桃(PrunusserotinaEhrh.)和黄杨木(LiriodendrontulipiferaL.)的研究均表明,采伐能促进幼龄林的胸径生长。Smith等[6]对北美红栎及Stringer等[7]对白栎(QuercusfabriHance)的研究发现,强度采伐亦能促进成熟林的胸径生长。Trimble[8]对黄杨木和美国黑樱桃及Lamson等[9]对加拿大糖槭(AcernegundoLinn.)的一些研究认为,采伐会减缓树高生长;Smith等[10]的研究则认为,采伐对美国黑樱桃、加拿大糖槭的树高生长基本无影响,但对黄杨木的树高生长具促进作用。相对于常规间伐,近自然经营中的采伐强度更大,主要针对林分中的目标树进行单株管理,使目标树在较短的时间内达到目标胸径[11]。从国内有关近自然经营采伐的研究报道可看出,大部分是关于采伐后的林下物种多样性[12]、森林更新[13]和目标树生长[14]等研究,而关于林木生长对采伐的动态响应研究较少,仅李婷婷等[15]研究了杉木人工林近自然化改造后的林分生长,比较了47%和61%两个强度采伐后4年内林分蓄积生长量和单木生长量等动态变化。尽管目前已有一些关于马尾松、杉木间伐方面的研究[16-18],而对不同强度采伐后的马尾松生长动态鲜有报道。为此,本文利用马尾松近自然改造试验林,以系统研究马尾松生长指标与采伐强度间的相关性,为马尾松人工林近自然化改造工作提供依据和指导。

1 试验地概况

1993年,在热林中心伏波实验场用种源为宁明桐棉的1年生裸根苗营造马尾松人工纯林,株行距为2.0 m×2.5 m,初植密度为2 000株·hm-2,于1999年和2003年分别进行了强度约20%的透光伐和强度约30%的抚育性间伐。

2 研究方法

2.1 试验设计

表1 样地概况

注:Ⅰ、Ⅱ、Ⅲ和Ⅳ表示处理,其采伐强度分别为80%、73%、66%和59%;下标为区组编号。

Notes: Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ and Ⅳ refer to thinning treatments, and their intensities are 80%, 73%, 66% and 59%, respectively; and their subscripts are codes of blocks in the experiment.

2.2 生长观测

采伐作业前,在马尾松纯林内设置3块400 m2的圆形样地进行本底调查,调查样地内所有马尾松植株的胸径、树高、枝下高和冠幅。应用围尺进行每木检尺,采用皮尺分东、西、南、北4个方向测定冠幅,VERTEX超声波测高器测量树高和枝下高。林分平均保留密度为1 100株·hm-2,平均胸径18.26 cm,平均树高11.64 m,平均蓄积量150.25 m3·hm-2。采伐后,在每个小区中心位置附近选取一个圆心点布设半径为11.3 m、面积400 m2的圆形样地,分别于2008、2010、2012、2014年底和2016年8月对所有保留木进行生长观测。

2.3 数据处理

冠面积为东西、南北2个方向冠幅的乘积。

单株材积(V):V=g×f×h

式中:h为全树高(m);g为胸高断面积(m2);f为平均实验形数,马尾松取0.39[19]。

采用单因素方差分析和Duncan多重比较检验不同采伐强度下马尾松林分的胸径、树高、单株材积和蓄积年均增长量及枝下高、冠面积年均变化量,应用SPSS16.0 软件进行数据统计分析。由于套种的植株尚未进入主林层,对马尾松生长的影响较小,故本研究在分析生长动态时未予考虑。

4 讨论

林下套种阔叶树对保留木生长存在一定的影响,但本研究未考虑其对上层林木的影响;然而,随着时间的推移可能逐渐出现套种林木与马尾松的水肥竞争。另一方面,阔叶树的凋落物分解快,可以加速林地的养分循环,从而对林下物种多样性、土壤等亦会产生积极影响。不同强度采伐后,林分的恢复是一个长期的过程,采伐强度越大,则影响的持续时间越长[31]。总而言之,本研究只是采伐后马尾松生长动态研究的阶段性总结,未来阔叶树逐渐进入主林层,马尾松的生长动态必然会受影响;林下植被的变化亦会影响地力,进而影响林分生产力[32-34],有待长期观测研究。

[Objective]Growth dynamics of Pinus massoniana were studied under intensive thinning so as to screen out suitable thinning intensity and provide technical support for close-to-nature management of Masson pine plantations. [Method] A thinning trial was conducted in a 14-year-old Masson pine plantation with stand density of 1 100 trees per hectare in October, 2007. Four thinning treatments including 225, 300, 375 and 450 trees left per hectare and the control without thinning were arranged. Since 2008, growth performance such as diameter at breast height (DBH), height, height of crown base and crown area were measured every two years, and wood volumes were calculated at the single tree and stand level. These data were analyzed through one-way variance analysis and Duncan multiple range tests to reveal dynamical responses of these index to all sorts of thinning intensities. [Result] Stand growth performance were significantly influenced by thinning intensity, mean annual increments of DBH, single tree volume, crown area decreases with increase of stand density of thinning treatments, but they were all significantly higher than those of the control (P<0.05). The crown area increments of Masson pine were the highest during year 1 to 3 after thinning, while increments of DBH were the highest during year 3 to 5. No obvious relationship was observed between tree height growth rate and thinning density. Increases of crown base height and stand volume were significantly affected by stand density, and they increased with increase of stand density, while the differences of stand volume decreased with increase of forest age. [Conclusion] In the present study, Masson pine’s response of crown growth to intensive thinning was the most sensitive and rapid. The crown area increased sharply at first, then resulted in rapid growth of DBH, while tree height and crown base height increased a bit stably. Thinning with four intensities all remarkably influenced the growth of single tree volume, but only thinning with 225 trees left per hectare had significant effect on increment of stand volume. Taking mean annual increments of the single tree volume and stand volume, thinning intensity with 300 trees left per hectare was recommended for close-to-nature management of 15-year-old Masson pine plantations in southwestern Guangxi.
