    To study the effects of different management modes on the growth and diversity of  larch plantation, and provided theoretical basis for the management of larch forest in north China. Taking the Larix principis-rupprechtii plantation in Longtoushan Seed Farm, Mulanweichang National Forestry Administration of Heibei Province as the research object, the sample plots were investigated by the method of combining random distribution and fixed sample plots,and the effects of N, T and CK management modes on the growth and diversity of L. principis-rupprechlii plantation were studied. The average annual growth of DBH and average annual growth of single tree volume in N model were higher than those in T model and CK model. After 2,4 and 6 years of operation,the average annual growth of DBH in N model was 1,1,1.2,1.9,1.3 and 1.9 times of that in T model and CK model,respectively. The average annual growth of single tree volume in N model was 1,1. 07,1.01,1.04, 1.03 and 1. 06 times of that in T model and CK model, respectively; With the increase of management time, the diameter class distribution was constantly changing. The number percentage of small diameter class plants in CK mode was higher, the number percentage of diameter class plants in N mode and T mode was higher, the DBH distribution of N mode and T mode stood shifts to the right relative to CK mode, and the number percent-age of diameter class plants in N mode stands of 16 cm and above was 30. 97% and 17. 24%higher than that of T mode and CK mode; With the increase of operation time, the number of shrub and grass species under N mode and N mode increased, while the number of shrub and grass species under CK mode decreased. After 2 years of operation, there was no significant difference bet ween the Shannon-Wiener index,Simpson index and Pielou evenness index N model and T model were higher than that of CK model ( P<0.05),and the Shannon-Wiener index,Simpson index and Pielou evenness index of herb layer and shrub layer were significantly improved ( P<0. 05). N model promoted the growth and species diversity of L.principis-rupprechtii plantation; For larch plantation in north China, how to manage the forest depended on improving the growth of the stand in a long time scale, and also required long-term monitoring and research on the sample plots.

    Abstract: In order to reveal Quercus mongolica population phenotype differentiation degree and variation law, and explore Q .mongolica characteristics of phenotype variation and geographical distribution pattern of traits. The differences and diversity of 10 phenotype characters of 6 natural populations of Q. mongolica from Hebei, Inner Mongolia, Liaoning, jilin and Heilongjiang provinces were studied. The phenotype differentiation and variation of Q. mongolica phenotype traits with methods of nested analysis of variance, correlation analysis and cluster analysis were analyzed. The results showed that 9 phenotype traits were significantly different. The phenotype differentiation coefficient was 48. 12%,and the degree of phenotype differentiation within populations was slightly higher than that between populations. The Shannon index of 10 phenotype characters was all greater than 1. 00,indicating that the characters were abundant, and the coefficient of variation of population varied greatly, ranging from 5. 0%-51.1%. The variation of the same phenotype trait between different populations and the variation of different phenotype traits within the same population were different. The population of Q. mongolica was divided into three groups by cluster analysis.the clustering results were inconsistent with geographical distance.

    The main chemical components of different organs of larch (trunk sapwood, branches, bark, leaves and pine cone) were studied, and their pyrolysis characteristics and basic physical and chemical properties of biochar were analyzed, which provided theoretical basis for multi-stage and high-value utilization of larch felling residues,carbonization back to forest and soil improvement. The contents of cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin, benzene alcohol extract and ash in each organ of larch were isolated and determined, and the thermal stability of each organ material was characterized. Different organ materials of larch were carbonized at 500,700 and 900 C,respectively, and the physico-chemical properties of biochar were characterized. The sapwood of larch trunk had the highest content of hygrocellulose, the lignin and ash content of pine needles had the highest content, and the benzene alcohol extract content of branches had the highest content. The pyrolysis process of larch was divided into three stages: drying,rapid thermal degradation and calcination. The main pyrolysis reaction occurred at 200 一 400 C. The results of gravimetric analysis and carbon yield analysis showed that pine needles had the highest carbon residue rate. The biochar yield and surface functional groups of the same tissue and organ decreased with the increase of carbonization temperature.' The pH value of biochar in the same tissue and organ increased gradually with the increase of carbonization temperature. The specific surface area of the five biochar was bark charcoal > trunk charcoal > pine cone charcoal > pine needle charcoal > branch charcoal, The cellulose content of larch sapwood was the highest, which was suitable for paper-making and other raw materials. The lignin content of pine needles was high,which was suitable for extracting chemicals. Tree trunks sapwood, bark and branches were suitable for carbonization. Bark carbon had higher carbon yield, larger specific surface area, strong alkaline pH and stable chemical properties, which could be used to improve acidic soil.

    In order to investigate the effects of different thinning types on the spatial structure of ecological forest in Beijing Plain, nine permanent plots were established in Tongzhou District, Beijing, including representative forest types such as Salix matsudana, Styphnolobium japonicum and Fraxinus chinensis. After selecting the target trees, each stand type was cut with interference, group and strip thinning respectively. The spatial structure of plain ecological forest and the effect of thinning on the spatial structure of target tree and stand were analyzed by using the optimized spatial ratio, angular scale and density.The Comprehensive Spatial Structure Index (CSSI) was constructed to evaluate the effects of different thinning methods on the spatial structure of ecological forest in Beijing Plain. The results indicated that: (1) CSSI combined angular scale, density, and optimized size ratios, which was suitable for the spatial structure evaluation of ecological forests in Beijing Plain. (2)The spatial distribution pattern of plain ecological forests represented by S. japonicum, F. chinensis and S. matsudana was evenly distributed before thinning, most of the trees in a moderate state. The forests were relatively dense, and the spatial structure of F. chinensis and S. matsudana was better than that of S. japonicum. (3) Thinning could significantly optimize the spatial structure of plain ecological plantation, especially for forests with high density such as S. japonicum. (4) For different tree species, the optimal thinning methods to improve the spatial structure were different, but for the spatial structure unit of target tree, the optimal degree of interference tree thinning was the most obvious.

    To reveal the differences in photosynthetic characteristics of three Hippophae rhamnoides strains, and explore the effects of mature leaf morphology and other factors on their net photosynthetic rate, this study measured the leaf morphology index and photosynthetic physiological indicators of three H.rhamnoides strains, namely "Nordic No.1", "Yulu", and "Shenqiuhong", and analyzed the influencing factors of net photosynthetic rate. The results showed that:(1) "Yulu" had the largest leaf area and "Shenqiuhong" had the smallest leaf area, but the differences in leaf morphology and various indicators among the three varieties were not significant; (2) Netphotosynthetic rate(Pn),transpiration rate(Tr),intercellular carbon dioxide concentration(Ci),and stomatal conductance(Gs) of "Nordic No.1" were significantly higher than the other two varieties, and the water use efficiency and stomatal limitation values were significantly lower than the other two varieties; (3) Multiple stepwise regression analysis showed that physiological factors transpiration rate and intercellular carbon dioxide con centration were the main influencing factors of netphotosynthetic rate in the three varieties. The decrease in netphotosynthetic rate in "Nordic No.1" and "Shenqiuhong" was influenced by stomatal conductance, while the decrease in netphotosynthetic rate in "Yulu" was caused by non stomatal limitation. In summary, "Nordic No.1" maintains a higher photosynthetic production capacity by consuming more water; "Shenqiuhong" maintained photosynthetic production capacity through higher water use efficiency. However, there was no significant difference in photosynthetic rate and other indicators between "Yulu" and "Shenqiuhong", and the photosynthetic capacity was similar, indicating that "Yulu" guaranteed its photosynthetic production capacity through a larger leaf area.
