In order to clarify the adaptability of woody ferns to drought stress,3-year-old Alsophila spinulosa seedlings were selected for drought stress and rehydration treatment through potted water control.The changes of water potential and photosynthesis in the leaves of Alsophila spinulosa were studied after 3,6,9,12 days of drought and after 3,6,and 9 days of rehydration.The results showed that with the prolongation of drought time,the water potential of Alsophila spinulosa leaves showed an overall upward trend,the net photosynthetic rate (P_n) showed a downward trend,the inter-CO₂ concentration (C_i) first decreased and then increased,and the stomatal conductance (G_s) and transpiration rate (T_r) showed a trend of decreasing-increasing-decreasing.In the early stage of drought (6 days ago),the change trend of P_n,G_s and C_i was basically the same,and the decrease of P_n was mainly caused by stomatal limitation.In the later period of drought (after 6 days),the change trend of P_n was inconsistent with that of G_s and C_i,and the decrease of P_n was mainly caused by non-stomatal limitation.After rehydration,P_n and T_r of Alsophila spinulosa leaves recovered to the level of adequate water supply,while the water potential,G_s and C_i recovered to the level above that of adequate water supply.At the same time,the water use efficiency (WUE) of Alsophila spinulosa leaves increased first and then decreased with the prolongation of drought time,and showed a downward trend after 6 days of drought.And after rehydration,the WUE basically recovered to the level of adequate water supply.Taken together,Alsophila spinulosa has relatively poor drought tolerance and relatively strong rehydration recovery ability.Through the analysis of the photosynthetic physiological characteristics of drought stress and rehydration process,it is preliminarily considered that Alsophila spinulosa is a drought-avoiding plant.

In order to elucidate the effects of stand age on soil nutrients and C:N:P stoichiometry characteristics in Pinus armandii plantations,an age sequence of Pinus armandii stands (10 years old,16 years old,22 years old and 47 years old) were selected in Wumeng Mountain,Bijie City,Guizhou Province.Three representative 20 m×20 m plots were set in each forest stand.The soil pH,total carbon (TC),total nitrogen (TN),total phosphorus (TP),total potassium (TP),total calcium (TCa),soil organic carbon (SOC),available nitrogen (AN),available phosphorus (AP),and available potassium (AK) at soil depth of 0-20 cm were measured,and the stoichiometric ratio of soil C:N:P was calculated.Their changes with stand age and their relationship between the C:N:P stoichiometric ratio and the factors were explored.The results showed that the concentrations of SOC and TN among different ages ranged 23.624~65.093 g/kg and 1.533~5.157 g/kg,respectively,which were much higher than the national average level.The concentrations of TP ranged 0.327~1.097 g/kg,which was comparable to the national average soil level.These indicated that the concentrations of SOC and TN were high in the study area.The stand age had significant effects on soil nutrients and C:N:P stoichiometric ratio.With the increase of stand age,the soil TC,SOC,C:N and C:P showed a trend of first decreasing and then increasing,whereas soil pH,TK and TCa showed a trend of first decreasing and then increasing.The TN,TP,AN,AP and AK increased gradually with the increasing of stand age,whereas the soil N:P showed a wavy trend.Pearson correlation analysis showed that the correlations of soil C:N and C:P with TK and TCa were greater than those with TN and TP,indicating that the soil C:N ratio and C:P ratio of Pinus armandii plantations were mainly affected by the contents of potassium and calcium.Therefore,it is particularly important to scientifically regulate the contents of potassium and calcium in the soil during the management of Pinus armandii plantations.Results from this study can provide theoretical basis for sustainable and scientific management of Pinus armandii plantations.

Eucalyptus is an important fast-growing tree species in southern China,which plays a significant role in ensuring national timber safety and enhancing forest carbon sequestration capacity.However,there are still no reliable tree biomass models for Eucalyptus.In this study,based on the data of above-ground biomass (including the components of stem wood,stem bark,branches and forages) from 183 sample trees and underground biomass from 124 sample trees of Eucalyptus spp.in Guangxi which was the key distribution region of Eucalyptus plantations in China,one- and two-variable biomass model systems with compatibility and additivity were developed using the new combined estimation technique integrating dummy variable modeling approach and error-in-variable simultaneous equations approach.The results showed that the determination coefficients (R²) of above- and underground biomass models were all more than 0.95,and the mean prediction errors (MPEs) were less than 3% and 6%,respectively.From the comparison of estimates resulted from 3 sets of above- and underground biomass models for Eucalyptus published before,it was found that only one set of the models could met the precision needs of relevant technical regulation,and other two sets of the models resulted in significant biased estimates,where the highest estimate error of underground biomass model had even more than 100% of relative error.The compatible and additive tree biomass models systems for Eucalyptus developed in this study would provide a basis for accurately estimating the biomass and carbon storage in Guangxi,even in the whole country.

The characteristics of the forest land with a canopy density of more than 60% include complex tree species,a narrow interspecific character gap,and modest interspecific distances.Traditional convolutional neural networks (CNN) are superior to other classification approaches in terms of accuracy and automation,but they also have a low learning efficiency,a tough time enhancing recognition accuracy,and poor interpretability.Additionally,the typical approach of creating maps of tree species through regular segmentation overlooks changes in tree species and boundary characteristics of remote sensing objects,making it simple to create the salt and pepper phenomenon in forest areas with dense canopies.Therefore,a Grad-Swin transformer (G-ST) based on class activation mapping and Swin transformer (ST) classification model was suggested as the solution to the aforementioned issues.It incorporates transfer learning,the ST classification model,and gradient descent class activation mapping,and by integratinglong-distance features,data enhancement,feature knowledge from other fields,and prediction training attention,it increases the G-ST classification accuracy as well as the model's generalization and interpretability abilities.Thematic maps of tree species are created by using a straightforward linear iterative clustering algorithm.The results demonstrated that the accuracy of the tree species map produced by this method was greater than that of the conventional CNN combined with regular segmentation,and the boundary between trees and remote sensing objects was closer to the vectorization result.This method can therefore serve as a useful reference for tree species image segmentation,mapping,and distribution statistics.

The road green spaces before and after the landscape optimization of national roads,county roads and township roads in Liquan County in 2021 were taken as the research objects.UAV aerial survey,field survey and GIS were used to obtain road green space information,and the DOM,DEM and DSM files generated from UAV aerial survey were combined to extract landscape features,propose transformation patterns and carry out landscape optimization.The species diversity of the optimized road green spaces was sampled and analyzed,and the diversity characteristics were analyzed by calculating the Margalef richness index,Shannon-Wiener diversity index,Simpson dominance index and Pielou evenness index,and recommendations were made for the development of road green space systems in Liquan County.The results of the study show that:1) UAV aerial surveys are suitable for collecting information on road green spaces with different landscape characteristics,and are universal in terms of data collection.Road green spaces are affected by road class and width,and show obvious differences in landscape configuration.The best landscape base of national roads and the worst landscape base of rural roads are found in Liquan County.There are shortcomings such as single plant species,lack of regional characteristics,poor community structure,low ecological benefits,etc.;2) Based on the characteristics of the site,it is proposed to improve the type and transformation of landscape transformation mode.The improvement is divided into two types,namely local modification and overall enrichment.Local modification is based on the design point of "breaking grey and increasing green,landscape articulation";overall enrichment is based on the design point of "adding layers,colors and numbers";the transformation type is based on "background trees+ornamental shrubs+ground cover ";3) The diversity of species on each grade of road is enhanced after landscape optimization,and the overall landscape effect is remarkable,which has certain significance for the construction of forest cities.

Data quality evaluation is the basis of land cover product selection and the premise of application.Taking Pu 'er City of Yunnan Province as the research area,weadopted the correlation coefficient of area,confusion analysisof classification type,consistency analysis for spatial pattern,and confusion matrix as the indicators for evaluation.Based on the classification results using high spatial resolution airborne images and the sub-meter visual interpretation results,we analyzed the classification accuracy and spatial consistency of 4 land cover products with 10m spatial resolution (Pu'er LC,Esri_Land_Cover_2020_10m,ESA World Cover,Dynamic World) in Pu'er City,Yunnan Province.Ourresults showed that:1) Land types and distribution patterns of 4 land cover products were basically consistent,mainly including woodland,followed by shrub,grassland and cultivated land.The area correlations were relatively high,all the correlation coefficients were greater than 0.8.2) The high spatial consistency area accounted for 64.87% of the Pu 'er city,mostly was woodland;In the low spatial consistency regions,shrub and grassland,woodland,cultivated land,construction land and other land cover types were staggered.3) The absolute accuracy evaluation showed that the overall accuracy of Pu'd LC data was the highest (88.52%),and rest of the three products had the classification accuracy for about 75%.This paper provided a good reference for the quality evaluation and the selection for land cover products.
