日本园林在保护植物多样性方面发挥着重要作用。以往的研究表明,不同的园林景观及其维护以及花园小气候可以与高briterite多样性,虽然它还没有被检查这些小气候如何不同于那些在其他土地利用类型,以及它们如何影响briterite多样性。因此,本研究分析了小气候、园林景观与植物多样性之间的关系。研究地点包括日本京都著名的西法寺,以及周围的居民区和森林。17个1米半径的圆形地块内的研究地点,和brabente物种丰富度和覆盖,景观要素,和小气候(温度和相对湿度)记录在这些地块。67种物种被确定,包括4种濒危物种,花园地块显示出更高的物种丰富度和覆盖比周边地区。花园小气候的特点是显着较低的温度和较高的相对湿度,这可以归因于花园的元素,如大植被覆盖和水面的综合影响。值得注意的是,这些小气候可以显着和积极的影响,通过减轻干旱胁迫的brabrite多样性。因此,具有大植被覆盖和水面的日本花园可以作为干旱敏感物种的保护地,增加城市植物的多样性。通过促进几个物种之间的生物相互作用和改善生态功能,保护水曲柳可能有利于城市生物多样性和恢复力的增强。
Japanese gardens play an important role in the conservation of bryophyte diversity. Previous studies have indicated that diverse garden landscapes and their maintenance as well as garden microclimates can be related to high bryophyte diversity, although it has not been examined how these microclimates differ from those in other land use types and how they affect bryophyte diversity. Therefore, this study analyzed the relationships among microclimate, garden landscape, and bryophyte diversity. The study sites comprised the renowned Saihoji Temple in Kyoto, Japan, and surrounding residential areas and forests. Seventeen 1-m-radius circular plots were established within the study sites, and bryophyte species richness and cover, landscape elements, and microclimates (temperature and relative humidity) were recorded in these plots. Sixty-seven species were identified, including four endangered species, and garden plots showed higher species richness and cover than surrounding areas. Garden microclimates were characterized by significantly lower temperature and higher relative humidity, which can be attributed to a combined influence of garden elements such as large vegetation cover and water surface. Notably, these microclimates can significantly and positively affect bryophyte diversity by mitigating drought stress. Thus, Japanese gardens featuring large vegetation cover and water surface can function as conservation sites for drought-sensitive species, increasing urban bryophyte diversity. Conservation of bryophytes might be beneficial to urban biodiversity and resilience reinforcement by promoting biological interactions among several species and improving ecological functions.
