摘要:

生物地理学研究是生物学和地理学交叉非常明显的部门自然地理学学科,它具有很强的基础研究特点,同时研究成果也具有很大的应用潜力。近年来,我国生物地理学基础研究在国家自然科学基金委等部门的支持下,在山地植被与地理环境、干旱半干旱区植被与地理环境、植物区系、植物物候、土壤动物与土壤生态功能、土壤生物结皮等方面开展了全面而深入的研究。同时拓展了传统生物地理学的研究方向,在植物地理学与全球变化、植物地理学与生物多样性保护、植物地理学与生态系统管理等方面也开展了大量研究。尤为可贵的是干旱半干旱区土壤生物结皮研究、典型温带荒漠区原生荒漠植被对水分改变的响应与适应研究取得了令国内外关注的高水平研究成果。

Abstract:

The fundamental research of biogeography in China is mainly supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China in which the Department of Earth Sciences plays a dominant part. In the past few years, the objectives of plant geography study are mainly focused on alpine vegetation as well as arid and semi-arid land vegetation. The relationships between biodiversity, vegetation, alpine timberline and the effect of mountains are the main topics of alpine vegetation study. More and more field work and comparative studies have been conducted on various mountain types and regions. The limitation of water and salt to plants and the adaptation of the physiological and ecological function of these plants to the habitats are the main topics of plant geography study in arid and semi-arid areas. These studies show concerns for a wide range of fields, including plants, populations, biological communities and ecosystems. There are some advances in the studies of biological soil crust as well as of the ecophysiological response and morphological adjustment of desert shrubs with the variation of summer precipitation. However, zoogeography has not been extensively studied as plant geography has in the geographical community of China. In this field much emphasis is placed on soil animals and soil ecological function. Although biogeography study has made much progress in recent years, some curious problems should be solved to promote its development in the future. These problems are as follows. The number of professional researchers of biogeography is too small; potential researchers of biogeography with the background of geography are unlikely to get systematic trainings of biological sciences; the development is not balanced between the sub-branches of biogeography.
