日本雪山的亚高山森林地带的特点是针叶林和草甸的镶嵌。冷杉树丛环绕着中草甸,形成了森林-草甸交错带。研究了灌丛的大小和年龄结构,以考察日本中部Aizukomagatake森林-草甸边界的稳定性。年龄结构显示身高偏小。在灌丛中,不是由于演替的早期阶段,而是由于不利的立地条件。尽管它们的茎很小,但它们和A邻居的树冠树一样老。婚姻家庭。降雪压力为Madea。主茎折断的主干在山顶坡面上形成蜂窝,而在背风坡上主茎弯曲的蜂窝则形成雪的滑动压力。没有发现任何证据表明森林-草甸边界的位置在大小和年龄结构上有任何重大变化。至少在本世纪,边界位置似乎几乎是稳定的。
Subalpine forest zone in the Japanese snowy mountains is characterized by a mosaic of coniferous forests and meadows.Abies mariesiithickets surround mesic meadows, forming a forest-meadow ecotone. Size and age structure of the thickets were studied to examine the stability of the forest-meadow boundaries on Mount Aizukomagatake in central Japan. The age structure indicates that the small height ofA. mariesiiin the thickets was not due to the early stage of succession but due to adverse site conditions. In spite of their small stem height, they were as old as canopy trees in neighboringA. mariesiiforests. Snow settling pressure madeA. mariesiithickets with broken main stems on the crest slopes, while snow glide pressure formed those with bending stems on leeward slopes. No evidence was found to show any major changes in the position of the forest-meadow boundaries in the size and age structure. The boundary position appears to have been almost steady for at least this century.
