| 1 | Influence of topographic aspect on floristic diversity, structure and treeline of afromontane cloud forests in the Bale Mountains,Ethiopia显示文摘We studied the influence of east and west aspects on floristic composition, diversity, structure and treeline of afromontane cloud forests at Rira in the Bale Mountains, southeast Ethiopia. In addition, we studied how aspect relates to and/or interacts with other topographic and edaphic factors in influencing vegetation diversity. Stratified systematic plot sampling was used to survey the floristic composition, diversity and structure of forests on east- and west-facing slopes. The sample plot size was 20 × 20 m and a total of 36 plots were inventoried. A total of 72 composite soil samples were collected and analysed.Woody species richness of the forest on the east-facing slope was 1.7 times higher than on the west-facing slope.Shannon, Simpson and Log-series alpha diversity indices and evenness of forests on the east-facing slope were significantly higher than on the west-facing slope. NMDS ordination indicated that the east- and west-facing slopes formed two clusters of species and aspect explained 55.2 % and 10.4 % of the variation in species richness and abundance, respectively. There was no significant difference between aspects in stand structure except in dominant height, which was higher on the east-facing slopes. There was significant interaction between aspect and elevation in influencing woody species diversity. The four plant community groups, which were identified using cluster and indicator species analysis were represented differently on the east and west aspects. The treeline on the east-facing slope(3352 m) was located about 110 m higher than on the west-facing slope(3240 m). Soil moisture deficiency was unlikely to be a limiting factor on either site. Near the equator, east–west aspect was shown to have considerable impact on floristic composition, diversity, structure, and treeline position of montane forests. Diurnal cloud movement patterns and its impact on microclimate of slope aspect should be taken into account in future studies of cloud forest diversity, structure, and treeline position. | Eshetu Yirdaw Mike Starr Mesele Negash Fantaw Yimer | 2015 | Journal of Forestry Research2015，26，4： | 4 |
