在本章中,作者提出了一个依赖于尺度的藤本植物生态驱动因素的框架,以组织现有的信息,并为温带藤本植物生态学的进一步研究提出了建议。目前对温带藤本植物生态学的了解主要来自北美系统,但在整个章节中,作者尽可能多地包括来自全球其他地区的信息,试图提供温带藤本植物的全球视角。本章探讨了藤本植物与温带树木群落相互作用的许多方面。它遵循藤本植物生态学的空间层次结构来组织我们现有的知识。本章提出的经验数据,解决目前的理解,藤本植物在温带森林中的作用,并提供了一个基本框架,温带藤本植物如何融入周围的社区。本章讨论了当前的研究需求和未回答的问题,并总结了温带藤本植物生态学的未来发展方向。
In this chapter, the authors propose a scale‐dependent framework of ecological drivers of lianas to organize existing information and suggest opportunities for further research on temperate liana ecology. Current knowledge on temperate liana ecology largely comes from North American systems, but throughout the chapter the authors include as much information as possible from other global regions in an attempt to provide a worldwide perspective of temperate lianas. The chapter examines many aspects of liana interactions with temperate tree communities. It follows a spatially hierarchical view of liana ecology to organize our current knowledge. The chapter presents empirical data that address the current understanding of the role of lianas in temperate forests and provide a basic framework of how temperate lianas fit into the surrounding community. The chapter discusses current research needs and unanswered questions, and concludes by recapping the future direction of temperate liana ecology.
