Forest landscape spatial patterns of forest-steppe ecotone in northern Hebei Province and eastern Inner Mongolia in China

Abstract

Abstract: There are forest landscapes such as Betula platyphylla,Populus davidiana,Picea mongolica,Quercus mongolica and Ulmus pumila within the forest-steppe ecotone in northern Hebei Province and eastern Inner Mongolia in China.The number of forest patches in forest-meadow region is more than that in forest zone and in meadow -steppe region.From forest zone to the ecotone,forest patch size decreases while forest fragmentation increases.Forest landscapes of forest-steppe ecotone are resulted from global climatic change,landforms,fire and human activities.

Key words: Salix psammophila, Shrub, Plant morphology, Flow structure, Wind-prevention effect
