The topographic pattern of seed rain of a mountain mixed evergreen and deciduous forest community
山地常绿落叶阔叶混交林种子雨的地形格局

Seed rain is the primary origin of regenerative propagators of forest communities. Just by affecting the spatial distribution of seed rain as one of the underlying mechanisms, topography has influences on the spatial heterogeneity of vegetation. To test the hypotheses on account of the mountain mixed evergreen broadleaved and deciduous forest community in subtropical region, we conducted a field comparative measurative experiment from 2001. We set 5 repeated seed-collection traps randomly at each of 10 sele...
