摘要:

造礁石珊瑚群落结构和空间分布规律的研究是珊瑚礁生态系统研究中的重要方面。研究珊瑚物种空间分布规律与波能的关系, 对于研究珊瑚礁生态系统演替规律, 保护和恢复珊瑚礁生态系统具有重要参考价值。文章以长圮海域波浪和造礁石珊瑚群落结构为研究对象, 分析了该海域的水流和波能特征以及造礁石珊瑚的空间分布规律, 探讨波浪对造礁石珊瑚空间分布规律的影响。结果显示, 珊瑚随水深分布经历一个递增和递减的过程, 只是不同珊瑚峰值的出现因不同水深的波浪特征而异。枝状珊瑚峰值出现在波浪作用相对较弱而光照充足的区域, 而块状珊瑚由于生长速度较慢, 所以在生态位上避开了生长快速的枝状珊瑚而选择了波浪作用较弱而光照不是非常充足的区域。5m水深区域鹿角珊瑚Acropora sp.和蔷薇珊瑚Montipora sp.占据优势, 而8m水深区域丛生盔形珊瑚 Galaxea fascicularis占据优势。

Abstract:

The coral reef assemblage and spatial differentiation regularity are two important aspects for research of coral reef ecosystems. A study on the relationship between waves and spatial distribution regularities of corals has an important reference value for studying succession rules and also for the protection and recovery of coral reef ecosystems. In this study, the spatial differentiation regularity of coral reef at the seashore of Changqi was examined by screening coral reef assemblage. The au-thors studied the current velocity and wave energy, and discussed their impacts on coral reef assemblage and spatial differen-tiation regularity. The results show that distribution of corals increased first and then decreased based on water depth. The emergence of different coral peak values varied according to the wave features at different water depths. Dominance of dif-ferent corals also differed according to water depths.
