Drastic expansion of rubber plantations in Indochina Peninsula

橡胶（巴西橡胶树）（Arg.）人工林是东南亚国家经济的可行资源。与正在被取代的传统土地覆盖相比，它们正在迅速扩展到整个东南亚大陆的气候最佳和次最佳环境，可能在多个尺度上改变水、能源和碳的分配。为了提供一个有效的工具来制定橡胶林的管理策略，例如平衡橡胶林的生产力和环境保护，我们建立了一个空间明确的基于个体的动态全球植被模型（DGVM），适用于模拟橡胶林的初级和乳胶生产力（SEIB- rp）。SEIB-RP可以考虑气候对生产过程的影响，从而使我们能够在气候变化条件下预测未来橡胶种植园的生产力。

Rubber (Hevea brasiliensis Müll. Arg.) plantations are a viable resource for the economics of Southeast Asian countries. They are rapidly expanding into both climatically optimal and sub-optimal environments throughout mainland Southeast Asia, potentially change the partitioning of water, energy, and carbon at multiple scales, compared with traditional land covers that are being replaced. To provide a useful tool for building strategy of rubber plantation management, e.g., balancing the rubber plantation productivity and the environmental conservation, we developed the Spatially Explicit Individual-Based (SEIB) Dynamic Global Vegetation Model (DGVM) applicable to simulate both primary and latex productivities in rubber plantations (SEIB-RP). SEIB-RP can take the climatic impacts on productive processes into consideration, and thus, allows us to project the future rubber plantation productivities under climate change conditions.
