摘　　要：探讨了浑善达克退化沙地草地围封后流动沙丘的稳定程度 ,以及相应的群落特征随恢复进程的变化规律。采用空间序列代替时间序列的方法 ,从物种丰富度、生活型及功能型多样性等方面探讨了围封 18a(1985～ 2 0 0 3年 )过程中草地自然恢复演替进程。在这一过程中 ,物种多样性、丰富度和生物量随恢复演替先增加而后基本稳定或略有降低 ,呈抛物线型的变化趋势 (P<0 .0 0 1)。依群落特征变化 ,大致可将退化沙地恢复过程分为 3个阶段 :(1)流动沙丘向半固定沙丘转变的过程。在围封的前 2 a内 ,群落盖度增加 6倍 ,物种丰富度增加了 1倍 ,而物种多样性增加较缓慢 ;(2 )半固定沙丘向固定沙丘演替的过程。围封后 3～5 a内 ,尽管群落盖度只增加了约 2 0 % ,但物种丰富度和多样性显著增加 ,植物种类在 3a期间增加了 15种 ,是沙地恢复演替的关键时期 ;(3)固定沙丘稳定阶段。围封第 6 a后 ,群落总盖度、生物多样性、物种丰富度保持不变或略呈下降趋势。在恢复演替中 ,C4 植物在初期起先锋作用 ;而 C3植物在后期对群落稳定起重要作用 ;豆科植物尽管在群落中所占的比重较小 ,但可能对改善沙丘土壤养分方面起重要作用。从生活型多样性来看 ,1年生植物在恢复演替早期阶段对沙丘稳固起重要作用 ;而中后期群落则以多年生植物为?One of the four largest sandlands in China, Hunshandak Sandland was once the flourish grassland, but now it is different, with shifting sand dune accounting for 50 % of the whole area. The percentage of shifting sand dune is 20 folds of that 50 years ago. Strong winds, occurring always in the winter and spring with an average speed of 4～5 m/s and the strongest 30 m/s, greatly intensify the degradation. Local people's survival has been threatened largely by sandland degradation. More seriously, heave windy storms threaten the ecological environments of Beijing and Tianjin owing to long-trem transportation of dust materials. So, it is an urgent task to restore the degraded ecosystems for the purpose of both ecological security and the survivals of local societies. It is well known that the law of vegetation succession should be well understood before any restoration measures to be conducted. Therefore, in this study, we investigated various aspects of plant community, e.g., the species richness, life form diversity and functional diversity. We designed our experiment through using the space series to replace time courses in degraded areas of Hunshandak Sandland which have been enclosed for 18 years (1985～2003). By doing so, was analyzed the relationship between restoration times and species diversity, above ground biomass, and community coverage, etc. The number of species, biomass and community coverage greatly increased at first stage, then maintained steady or decreased slightly along the 18-year restoration courses. Thirty-one species were recorded in all quadrats, among which 3 species occurred in shifting sand dunes and 21 species in fixed sand dunes. Based on the community characteristics, the restoration processes can be divided into 3 stages: (1) During the first two years of enclosing, the species richness increased 2 fold, from the 3 species to 6 species. Community coverage increased by 6 fold, while the species diversity increased slowly during this stage. Such stage could be regarded as
