Abstract:

Exploring the influence mechanism of different management modes on the combustibility of surface fuel can provide scientific basis for the sustainable management of natural secondary forest in the Daxing’anling Mountains.We studied the surface fuel(shrub,herb,litter,humus)of natural secondary coniferous-broadleaved mixed forest and broad-leaved forest under two management modes(comprehensive tending and non-interference)in the Daxing’anling Mountains,and analyzed the physicochemical properties and their interactions by drying method,ignition method,bomb method and linear regression.The results showed that:1)Under the two management modes,the water content of surface fuel of coniferous-broadleaved mixed forest and broad-leaved forest was shrub,herb,humus,litter from large to small,and the ignition point was humus,shrub,herb and litter in descending order.The water content and ignition point of different fuel components were higher in the comprehensive tending mode than in the non-interference mode,and the comprehensive tending mode increased the water content and ignition point of the surface fuel.2)The calorific value of surface fuel of coniferous-broadleaved mixed forest and broad-leaved forest under two management modes was litter,herb,shrub and humus in descending order.The calorific value of different fuel components was less in the comprehensive tending mode than in the non-interference mode,and the comprehensive tending mode reduced the calorific value of the surface fuel.3)Under the comprehensive tending mode,the ignition point of shrub and herb had a significant negative correlation with the calorific value(P<0.05),while the ignition point of litter and humus had no significant correlation with the calorific value(P>0.05).Under the non-interference mode,the ignition point of shrub and herb had no significant correlation with the calorific value(P>0.05),while the ignition point of litter and humus had a significant negative correlation with the calorific value(P<0.05).4)There was a significant positive correlation between ignition point and water content of different components of surface fuel under two management modes(P<0.05),and there was no significant correlation between calorific value and water content(P>0.05)(except herb in the non-interference mode).Compared with the non-interference mode,the comprehensive tending mode can improve the water content and ignition point of surface fuel,reduce the calorific value of surface fuel,and is conducive to reducing the combustibility of surface fuel and reducing the loss of forest resources.
