英文摘要 | The role of bedrock geochemistry in vegetation growth within karst areas has been examined in recent works, implying that the approach of the critical zone (CZ) extending from the canopy to the groundwater bottom enhances the understanding of vegetation ecology. In this paper, the research progress of vegetation ecology associated with bedrock features in the karst CZ in subtropical Southwest China is systematically reviewed. There are great differences in soil formation and soil features (water-holding capacity, particle size, and soil chemistry) between karst and non-karst regions, even between dolomite and limestone within a karst region. Water and soil are easily leached due to the connected underground crevices in karst, particularly in limestone-dominated regions, leading to water deficits in karst CZ plants in subtropical Southwest China. The development of plant roots in crevices affects the water and nutrient absorption by plants and microbial activities in the soil, which form the basis for vegetation distribution and growth in the karst CZ. The organic acids from plants also increase weathering rates. As extensive human activities have accelerated vegetation degradation and soil erosion and further led to rocky desertification characterized by increasing areas of rock exposure, state-of-the-art knowledge about the effects of bedrock-associated belowground and aboveground interactions can guide the implementation of vegetation restoration and the control of further rocky desertification in the subtropical karst CZ. |
