ANALYSIS OF THE REGULARITIES OF SPATIAL ORGANIZATION OF PLANT AND ANIMAL SPECIES RANGES USING THE ACTIVITY AND ABUNDUNCE INDICES
Abstract
Prerequisites, approaches and the state-of-art in studying the spatial organization of animal and plant species ranges (structures of ranges) are discussed. Basing on the maps of the structure of forest lemming (Myopus schisticolor Lilljeborg) range are established using the criteria of the species numbers and activity. Regularities of changing constancy of typical taiga species along the latitudinal gradient are revealed for Linnaea borealis L. and Maianthemum bifolium (L.) F.W. Schmidt. basing on the indicator of activity. The role of maps of the range structure for identification of ecological-geographical links of species is shown. The role and need of studying the structure of plant and animal species ranges for the solution of scientific tasks in the field of biodiversity conservation and monitoring and for the assessment of available biological resources are emphasized.
Keywords
