Abstract:
In order to reveal the influence of highway construction on the natural grassland and ecological system in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, two representative construction points at a distance of 17 km which are ongoing construction area of S10 Zhuoni-Hezuo expressway in Gannan Tibetan autonomous prefecture of Gansu province were investigated. The sampling sites were 10 and 500 m away from the construction red line, and the sampling dates were June and September 2021. Line transect method was used to collect the samples, and species composition, coverage, height and biomass of plant community were calculated; the composition of plant community and species diversity were analyzed by SPSS software, and the least significant difference(LSD)method was used to test the significance of the above indexes, meanwhile the influences of highway construction on plant species, growth and diversity were discussed. The results show that there are 86 plant species presenting in investigation sites and the important values of Kobresia capillifolia, K. tibetica and Elymus nutans are higher; there are no significant difference between two investigation sites or between two distances(10 and 500 m away from the red line of highway construction)in the same location for most of the indices; only Shannon index and biomass of plant have significant difference(P<0.05)in a few sampling sites, suggesting that there is little difference of plant community composition in the investigation sites and the different distances away from the red line of highway construction. The vegetation height, average height, biomass and Menhinick index of plant in September are significantly higher(P<0.05)than those in June, indicating that the plants away from the red line of highway construction recover naturally and grow normally through their own adaptation, although the highway construction partially destroys and affects the surrounding natural environment. In general, under strict control of construction behavior, plant communities and growth in different distances away from the red line of highway construction have little change, and the damages to the ecosystem are relatively small.
