Assessment of water-recharging based on ecological features of riparian forest in the lower reaches of Tarim River

摘要: The occurrence and development of riparian forests which are mainly dominated by mesophytes species relate closely with surface water. Since there is no water discharge to the lower reaches Tarim River in past 5 decade years, degrade severely. Based on analyses monitored data Yingsu, Argan Luobuzhuang 2002 2003, effect water-recharging discussed. project neglects fact that it flooding controls process Populus euphratica colonizing bare surface, but focuses groundwater influence vegetation. control deviates inherent laws development, so natural regeneration checked. response scope plants uplift extremely narrow, most communities have not been optimized. No seedlings dominant found areas because their physio-ecological characteristics ignored. vegetation changes vicinities stream only reflect demand shallow groundwater, however, fails provide suitable habitats for establishment plants. present scheme difficult realize restoration.
