竹子是一种多样化且具有重要生态意义的植物群，具有调节森林结构、组成和功能的潜力。为了提高竹子在森林调查中的可见性和代表性，并标准化整个生态系统的技术，我们提出了永久性研究地块中竹子监测的协议。竹子协议是必要的，因为非常适合树木的测量和采样方案不足以监测大多数竹子物种和种群。我们的协议建议计算研究地块中的所有竹秆（茎），并根据两种不同的方法确定竹子尺寸：（a）测量 60 个竹秆的随机子集并计算平均尺寸或（b）测量所有竹秆。根据秘鲁安第斯山脉 1 公顷地块的数据，我们表明两种方法都提供了非常相似的竹子断面积估计值。我们建议将最大直径≥1厘米的所有木本竹种的所有成熟竹秆都包括在内。我们还提出了如何收集竹种凭证以供识别的建议。根据我们提出的协议收集的数据将增加我们对竹子多样性的区域和全球模式以及竹子在森林动态中的作用的理解。
Bamboos are a diverse and ecologically important group of plants that have the potential to modulate the structure, composition, and function of forests. With the aim of increasing the visibility and representation of bamboo in forest surveys, and to standardize techniques across ecosystems, we present a protocol for bamboo monitoring in permanent research plots. A bamboo protocol is necessary because measurements and sampling schemes that are well‐suited to trees are inadequate for monitoring most bamboo species and populations. Our protocol suggests counting all bamboo culms (stems) in the study plot and determining bamboo dimensions based on two different approaches: (a) measuring a random subset of 60 culms and calculating the average dimensions or (b) measuring all culms. With data from 1‐ha plots in the Peruvian Andes, we show that both approaches provide very similar estimates of bamboo basal area. We suggest including all mature culms rooted inside change the to each plot from all woody bamboo species with maximum diameters ≥1 cm. We also present recommendations on how to collect vouchers of bamboo species for identification. Data collected according to our proposed protocols will increase our understanding of regional and global patterns in bamboo diversity and the role of bamboo in forest dynamics.
