Abstract: |
Urban parks taking important habitat responsibility for birds, and vegetation
characteristics in parks are important factors affecting bird activities. However, the effect
of vegetation characteristics on bird community is not clear in mountainous cities. This
paper studied on the relations between the summer bird communities and the vegetation
characteristics in Chongqing Hongen Temple Forest Park. According to the overall distribution
of topography and vegetation, 19 survey sites were randomly selected in the park. From late
July to late August 2018, field surveys were carried out using the sampling point method in
the time period from 06:30 to 10:00 in the morning. Investigators recorded vegetation data,
including bird behavior (perching, movement, foraging) and plant community characteristics
within each plot. This study analyzed the bird groups and their spatial niche overlap situations,
and focused on the influence of vegetation characteristics on birds’ activities and distribution.
The principal component analysis (PCA), Ward’s method clustering analysis and Pinaka index
were integrated in the study.
The results showed that there were 30 species of summer birds in Hongen Temple Forest
Park. According to the feeding habits, feeding patterns and vegetation levels, those summer
birds could be divided into six groups, including: G1-Insectivorous Pickup Group in Shrub
Layer, G2-Insectivore Pickup Set in Ground Cover Layer, G3-Herbivorous Pickup Group in
Tree-shrub Layer, G4-Carnivorous Attack Group in Tree-shrub Layer, G5-Omnivorous Pickup
Group in Tree-shrub Layer, G6-Insect-eating Flying Group. The spatial complementarity
and overlap of bird habitat, foraging, and movement requirements lead to the overlap and
separation of bird populations in spatial niches. And this is conducive to the rational allocation
of resources for different bird species and the coexistence of parks and green spaces; the
vertical structure of vegetation and the composition of plant species have a profound influence
on summer bird community, among which as an important habitat for birds. The ground cover
is rich in invertebrate and plant seeds and is an important feeding site for many birds; while the
shrub layer is an important transition space between tree layer and ground layer; and the arbor
layer is an important vegetation structure in the park’s green spaces, increasing the richness and
diversity of bird species by providing places for most birds to perch, nest, hide and feed. Further
more, the arbor layer provides a fulcrum for most birds to move quickly in the park. Whether it
is based on foraging needs or escaping danger, choosing the tree layer for movement is the most
effective way, so most of the movement behavior of birds occurs in the tree layer. Although the
hierarchical structure of the vegetation in the vertical space for different birds group providesspace differentiation behavior demand, but birds in such aspects as habitat, feeding and exercise the specific needs of usually is not done in a single
space of vegetation, there are often complementary space and the coincide, the resulting group in birds on the spatial niche overlap and separation
of concerns. According to the principle of niche, the separation of bird groups in spatial niche helps different bird species to reasonably allocate
resources and realize their coexistence in the park green space.
Based on the analysis results, it is recommend that in order to improve the efficiency of green space ecological services, the number of plants
with higher important values are required to increase appropriately; according to the living habits of birds, it is proposed to optimize the relations
between plant community and planting combination to improve plant utilization efficiency; several important ways were suggested to providing
stepping stone patches for birds, including combination with the plant collocation of the surrounding land, adjustment of the plant community
composition in the park, supplemented by the creation of specific habitats. Results of this study will provide a reference for plant landscape
management in mountainous urban parks from the perspective of ecological service enhancement. |
