Abstract: During sustaining drought from 2009 to 2012,by plots surveying in Xishan national forest park of Kunming and lab experiments and using 2 key factors including moisture content and fuel loading,the characteristics of ground fuels of six main forest types which consist of Pinus armandii Franch,Keteleeria evelyniana Mast,Cyclobalanopsis glaucoides Schottky,Pinus Yunnanensis Var Paamaea,Quercus acutissima Carr and Alnus nepalensis D.Don were studied.The results have shown that the highest moisture contents of ground fuel and coarse woody debris are Keteleeria evelyniana Mast,which are 55.36% and 40.95% respectively;while the lowest is Cyclobalanopsis glaucoides Schottky,which are 10.26% and 10.58% respectively.The highest fuel loading of ground fuel and coarse woody debris is Pinus armandii Franch and Piuus Yunnanensis Var Paamaea,which are 4.53±1.11 kg/m2 and 0.94±0.16 kg/m2,respectively,while the lowest of them are Alnus nepalensis D.Don,which are 2.08±0.19 kg/m2 and 0.07±0.03 kg/m2,respectively.

Key words: moisture content, fuel load, ground fuel, coarse woody debris, Xishan National Forest Park of Kunming
