主 题:Saltmarsh Spartina alterniflora Scirpus mariqueter Spatial variation Competition Exotic species Native species
摘 要:A saltmarsh has developed rapidly on the mudflat of Andong Shoal,in southern Hangzhou Bay,over the last decade since *** saltmarsh vegetation changes are driven by both sediment dynamic conditions and the competition between the exotic species Spartina alterniflora(***) and the native species Scirpus mariqueter(***).This study attempted to investigate large-scale spatial variations in the exotic and native species,by analyzing and interpreting a time series(2016-2018) of high-resolution(less than 1 m) remote sensing *** total area of the saltmarsh increased at a rate of 1.07 km^2/year,due to the accretion of the whole tidal *** spatial patterns revealed a new bimodal pattern for *** *** expanded over the upper to middle saltmarsh at a rate of1.68 km2/***,the *** patches at the seaward edge expanded at a negative rate of-0.005 km^2/year,indicating a different pattern in competition:*** had more advantages in the upper saltmarsh,while *** had more advantages in the pioneer zone with low ***,*** mainly established new habitats by invading *** in the middle saltmarsh,but *** occupied the bare mudflat for *** results aindicated that the interspecific competition result between *** and *** depended on elevation,and low elevation might create a favorable environment for *** to win the competition with exotic *** finding could be applied to future invasive species control and saltmarsh management.
