生境片段化是造成生物多样性丧失的重要因素之一。中国是生境片段化极为严重的国家之一,其高生物多样性受到了严重的威胁,然而却缺乏系统的总结研究。本文从生物类群、生境类型和空间尺度3个角度来探讨中国境内的生境片段化研究现状,以及生境片段化对当地生物多样性的影响,为生物多样性的管理和保护提供必要的研究基础。同时,对于目前生境片段化研究的不足,建议关注多尺度,多学科融合的研究,并且通过控制性实验深入研究生境片段化的机制。
Habitat fragmentation has become the primary threat to biodiversity. Due to the rapid economic development in China, a large number of natural intact habitats are suffering from fragmentation, driving a rapid loss of biodiversity in China. This review summarized the studies of effects of habitat fragmentation on biodiversity occurred in China based on different habitat types, taxa and spatial scales. This review provided basic information for the management and conservation of biodiversity at local and regional scales. We recommended that future studies should focus on multiscale and multidiscipline and longterm fragmentation experiments to reveal the mechanism of habitat fragmentation.
