Abstract:

This paper explored the spatial structure characteristics of typical mixed forests of Pinus massoniana in Liping County,Guizhou,and provided theoretical basis for the management and transformation of mixed forests in this area.Taking Pinus massoniana in the mixed forest in Liping County as the research object,the typical Pinus massoniana mixed forest in the study area was divided into 7 forest types based on the mixed tree species and proportion.The types were broad-leaved mixed forest with Pinus massoniana propotion of 40%(type A),50%(type B),70%(type C) and coniferous mixed forests mixed with Chinese fir with Pinus massoniana propotion of 30%(type D),50%(type E),70%(type F) and pure forests of Pinus massoniana(type G).The spatial structure of all types were analyzed using comprehensive evaluation indicators such as angular scale,diameter at breast height ratio,tree height ratio,mingling degree and spatial structure.The results showed that:1) The seven types of Pinus massoniana stands in the study area were all in a light aggregation distribution state,tending to a random distribution pattern;2) The Pinus massoniana in type F of the study area had a moderate height and diameter at breast height,while the Pinus massoniana in other types were subdominant in height and diameter at breast height;3) The mingling degree in the Pinus massoniana mixed forest in the study area was relatively high,usually above moderate mingling degree,while the pure forest of Pinus massoniana was in weak mingling degree and nearly zero mingling degree.4) The ranking of forest stand comprehensive evaluation was:Type A>Type D>Type E>Type B>Type F>Type C>Type G;5) There was no significant difference in the spatial structure of typical Pinus massoniana in the study area in terms of angular scale,ratio of diameter at breast height to size,and ratio of tree height to size.The differences in spatial structure were mainly influenced by the mingling degree.The mixed forest as a whole qas developing towards a top level community with random distribution,moderate competition among trees,and higher mingling degree,but it had not yet reached the level of natural top level community.

Key words: Liping County, Pinus massoniana, mixed forest, stand spatial structure
