自发演替
自力演替(英语:autogenic succession)是指由生态系统内的生物因素驱动的演替,虽然自力演替的机制长期以来一直存在争议,但人们很早就意识到了生物演替过程中起到的作用。[1][2][3]目前,学界主流的共识是促进、耐受和抑制机制都对自力演替有作用。[4]演替的概念通常与植被和森林群落相关,但它也适用于更广泛的生态系统。与此相反的概念是外力演替,它是指由生态系统的非生物因子驱动的演替。[5]
作用机制
植物本身(生物组分)可以导致演替发生。
- 叶片捕捉日光
- 碎屑的产生
- 水分和养分吸收
- 固氮
- 人为气候变化
植群之变化,由生物本身之作用所产生者,称为自力演替,而自力演替属于初级演替,包括生态系中生物、土壤及微气候之变迁。[6]
促进
- 改善场地因素,如增加有机质
抑制
- 阻碍物种或生长
