摘要: 为理解树木在极端逆境下如何维持长寿,本研究以西藏西部昂仁县高寒气候下4个大果圆柏古树群为研究对象,对64棵大果圆柏古树在过去170年(1855—2024年)的生长历史开展了树木年轮学研究,分析高寒气候下古柏群树木的生长策略。结果表明:64棵大果圆柏古树的树龄均超过100年,最老的个体达到438年;树木径向生长与6—9月气温呈显著负相关,与同期总降水量呈显著正相关,与8月标准化降水蒸散指数(SPEI)呈显著正相关;1855—2024年间,树木年轮平均宽度为0.87 mm,个体间生长差异显著,标准差为0.66 mm;在6次树轮极端窄年(1914、1958、1966、1983、2010和2016年)中,大果圆柏表现出的抵抗力和韧性存在较大的个体差异。树木整体生长缓慢且个体间生长差异显著,共同支撑古柏群在极端逆境下维持长寿。

Abstract: To understand how trees maintain longevity under extreme stress, we examined four clusters of ancient Juniperus tibetica) growing under high-elevation and cold conditions in western Xizang. The growth history of 64 ancient trees during A.D. 1855-2024 (170 years) was quantified using dendrochronological methods to analyze the growth strategies of ancient-tree clusters under alpine climatic conditions. The results showed that all the 64 juniper trees were over 100 years old, with the oldest reaching 438 years. The radial growth of trees was negatively correlated with temperature in June to September, positively correlated with total precipitation in the same season and the standard precipitation-evaporation indices (SPEI) in August. The average of ring widths across all samples in the period 1855-2024 was 0.87 mm, with apparent growth difference among individual trees, and standard deviation was 0.66 mm. The resistance and resilience of trees to six events of extreme narrow rings (1914, 1958, 1966, 1983, 2010, and 2016) also showed high variability among individuals. Slow and diverse growth are the strategy of ancient-tree clusters to maintain longevity under extreme adversity.
