Impacts of Slope Type and Ecological Factors on Vegetation Restoration at DG Hydropower Station in Xizang Autonomous Region
[Objective] The slope vegetation restoration effect and dominant ecological factors in the working area of DG hydropower station in Xizang Autonomous Region were studied in order to provide a theoretical basis and technical support to increase the success rate of vegetation restoration
control soil erosion
and improve the ecological environment in the work area. [Methods] Five different types of slope (slag accumulation
soil
soil/rock mixed
rock
and concrete) were taken as the research objects
and the relative soil water content
air temperature
slope and slope aspect were selected as ecological factors. After in-situ monitoring
sampling and analyzing the entropy-weight method was used to calculate the weight scores of vegetation characteristics (species diversity
species richness
and vegetation coverage) and soil fertility (organic matter
available phosphorus
available nitrogen
and available potassium). Then the comprehensive-evaluation method was used to calculate the comprehensive score that was then combined with the range analysis to select the most dominant ecological factor. [Results] The highest comprehensive score of vegetation restoration (10.000 0) was obtained for the slag accumulation slope and the soil slope
and the effect of vegetation restoration was the best for these two slopes. The comprehensive score of vegetation restoration for the concrete slope was only 5.369 0
and the effect of vegetation restoration was poor. Different types of slope had different effects on vegetation restoration because of different ecological factors. The impact of ecological factors followed the order of relative soil water content>slope>air temperature>slope aspect for the soil/rock mixed slope; relative soil water content>air temperature>slope>slope aspect for the rock slope; relative soil water content>slope aspect>slope>air temperature for the soil slope
concrete slope
and slag accumulation slope. Hence
relative soil water content was the most dominant ecological factor for all slopes. [Conclusion] The main ecological factor affecting slope vegetation restoration in the working area of DG hydropower station in Xizang Autonomous Region is soil relative humidity. There are great differences in the combination of optimal ecological factors for vegetation restoration in different types of slopes
among which the relative soil water content and slope of soil-rock mixed slope
rock slope
soil slope
concrete slope and residue accumulation body slope are the same
and the differences are mainly reflected in slope aspect and air temperature.
