Abstract

The natural environment of estuarine wetlands are located in marine-terrestrial and seawater-fresh water interlaced zone where vegetation is the primary productive force and the main builder of habitats for birds and spawning fish. In the late 1970s and early 1980s, a national wide survey of estuarine wetlands’ vegetation was conducted in China to identify the dominant phytocoenosium in each main estuary. Since the beginning of this century, with the in-depth study of the demand related to freshwater ecological, the research on the water-salt interaction of vegetation in estuarine wetland has developed rapidly. In this paper, we review the rule for three climate zones of China from north to south. In warm temperate zone of north China, the dominant community of estuarine supratidal zone is Phragmites Adans community. In the intertidal zone, the dominant community is Phragmites Adans community and Suaeda community. The law from inland to sea is as follows. When salinity of soil is between 5-6‰ and soil moisture content is about 20%, the dominant community is Calamagrostis community, Phragmites Adans community dominants when soil moisture content is more than 40%. When the salinity increased to 7-15‰ and the soil moisture content is about 40%, the dominant community is Suaeda community. Among which, there is an obvious Triarrhena Nakai. community transition zone between the soil water content of 20-40% in the Yellow River estuary wetland and when salinity is less than 10‰, there exists a transition zone of Tamarix Linn community, which is between the community of Phragmites Adans community and Suaeda community. In the subtropical monsoon region, the dominant community in the supra tidal zone is also Phragmites Adans community, which is same as the dominant community in warm temperate zone of north China. And the dominant community in the intertidal zone is Phragmites Adans-Spartina community. The law in this zone from estuary to ocean is that when salinity is less than 20‰ and average submerged depth is about 30cm, the dominant community is Phragmites Adans community. When salinity is 20-35‰ and the average submergence depth is 40cm, the dominant community is Phragmites Adans community or Spartina community. When salinity is 35-45‰ and the average submergence depth is 50cm, Scirpus Linn. community dominants or exists a shoal or bare ground. Mangrove plants are the dominant community of subtropical-tropical estuarine wetland. When salinity is between 0-5mg/g, the dominant community is Acanthus L community. As salinity increased to 7.5-21mg/g, the dominant community is Kandelia community. When salinity is between 11-15mg/g, the dominant community is Aegiceras Gaertn community. And when salinity is up to 8.8-17.5 mg/g, the dominant community is Avicennia L community.
