【寺坞岭】竹林生态修复中的长期监测

竹林是浙江省主要的森林种类之一。浙江省共有近1万平方公里的竹林，占全省森林面积的15%。然而近年来，随着劳动力成本的攀升和竹林经济效益的下降，大量竹林缺乏管理维护，竹林成片倒伏、无序扩张问题显著。并且，竹林生物多样性远低于阔叶林，因此有“绿色荒漠”之称。如何提升竹林生物多样性以及生态系统服务功能，已经成为浙江省一个普遍的问题。

Bamboo forest is one of the main forest types in Zhejiang Province. There are nearly 10,000 square kilometers of bamboo forests in Zhejiang Province, accounting for 15% of its forest area. However, in recent years, with the rise of labor cost and the decline of the economic benefits of bamboo forests, many bamboo forests are not properly maintained, and the problems of falling down and disordered expansion become serious. Moreover, the biodiversity of bamboo forest is far lower than that of broad-leaved forest. It is called "green desert". How to improve the biodiversity and ecosystem service functions of bamboo forests has become a common problem in Zhejiang.

2020年底，万向三农集团启动“江河荟·浙江翠”自然保护计划，选定竹林问题较为典型的萧山寺坞岭山区，开展竹林生态修复试点工作。我们从项目启动之初开始，为衰退竹林的生态恢复提供长期生物多样性监测和咨询建议，并协助开展公众参与活动。执行3年多以来，已在项目地发现勺鸡、丽星鹩鹛、白喉林鹟、福建大头蛙等多种特色野生动物。

两年来，竹林已经发生了翻天覆地的变化，林下的阔叶树幼苗逐渐生长，生物多样性逐渐恢复，一个将整座山作为展示退竹还林生态修复过程的“山之博物馆”也改建完成并向公众开放，其中就展示了我们的许多工作内容。

  At the end of 2020, Wanxiang Sannong Group launched a nature conservation plan, selected Siwuling mountainou in Xiaoshan where the bamboo forest problem is typical, to carry out pilot work on the ecological restoration of bamboo forests. Since the beginning of the project, we have been providing consistent biodiversity monitoring and consulting   for the ecological restoration of declined bamboo forests, and assisting public engagement. After over 3 years of monitoring, a variety of featured wild animals have been found in the project site, such as koklass pheasant, spotted elachura, brown-chested jungle flycatcher, Fujian large-headed frog, etc.

Today, the bamboo forest has undergone earth-shaking changes. The seedlings of broad-leaved trees under the forest are gradually growing with biodiversity recovering. A 'Mountain Museum' that showcases the ecological restoration process of returning bamboo and forest to the entire mountain has also been renovated and opened to the public, displaying many of our work contents.
