Abstract


April 2008 -2009 in August, the new Wind forest in Fangzheng County, Zhangguangcailing, trace detection method and caves identification method to study the three seasons of spring and autumn of badger habitat selection and cave. Badger habitat selection studies in 15 forest compartments random set of 23 sample lines, measured 612 quadrats 18 ecological factors measured: in the badger caves select studies, 55 groups of cave habitat quadrats and made control 1:1 habitats. Then use SPSS15.0 to analyze the data collected, the results are as follows: Spring: relative to the control side, badger Spring prefer to choose the broad-leaved forest, the dominant tree Mongolian oak tree density, low height, distance large shrub density, proximity, canopy density and vegetation cover, distance to water near located slope smaller sunny uphill habitat resource selection function model: P = eZ / (1 eZ), where z dominant tree = 0.608-1.378 × -1.490 × tree density -2.111 × canopy density of 1.102 × shrub density -3.467 × vegetation cover -0.965 × slope -1.994 × aspect, the model correctly predicted rate of up to 94.0%. That badger spring habitat selection probability and shrub density was positively correlated with a negative correlation with the dominant tree, tree density, canopy density, vegetation cover, slope and aspect. Summer: relative to the control side, badger summer prefer to select the dominant tree purple linden tree density, canopy density and vegetation cover, shrub density, low height, proximity, semi-shady in uphill bit. Resource selection function model: P = eZ / (1 eZ), where z = 0.843-0.902 × altitude of -0.830 × canopy density 4.298 × shrub density -2.849 × vegetation cover -0.654 × slope, the model correctly predicted rate 89.0%. That badger Xia Jisheng habitat selection and shrub density was positively correlated, negatively correlated with elevation, canopy density, vegetation cover and slope. Fall: relative to the control side, the badger Fall prefer to select is located in the sunny dominant tree purple linden and yellow pineapple shrub density and height, the distance near the habitat resource selection function model: P = eZ / (1 eZ), z = -0.036 0.671 × tree density -1.092 × canopy density of 1.751 × vegetation cover shrub density-1.388x -0.931 × aspect, the model for the correct prediction rate of 86.5%. That badger fall habitat selection and tree density and shrub density was positively correlated with canopy density, vegetation cover and aspect was a negative correlation. Spring and autumn contrast: badger summer, autumn season Habitats nominal variables, chi-square test, results show three seasons in the four factors of vegetation type, slope, aspect, slope position and dominant tree highly significant difference (P ≤ 0.001). Description badger obvious differences in vegetation type, slope, aspect, slope position and dominant tree selection in three seasons of spring and autumn. Three seasons of spring and autumn numeric habitat variables using one-way ANOVA test results show three seasons of spring and autumn in tree density, tree distance, shrub height, vegetation cover, distance to water, distance from cropland and artificially the interference distance difference significant (P ≤ 0.001), altitude, tree height, tree diameter at breast height, canopy density, shrub density, shrub distance and slope, the difference was not statistically significant (P gt; 0.05). Cave: recorded 55 group badger cave, the badger hole average size (27.40 ± 7.15) cm deep hole average (84.18 ± 22.04) cm, inclination average (26.36 ± 9.10) ° hole total = 3.02 commonly used hole hole number 0.80 0.56 the abandoned hole number. Relative to the control side, the badger cave prefer to choose in the canopy density and vegetation cover, shrub density, proximity, distance trees, away from the water and farmland near and far from human disturbance, gentler slopes sunny in slope-bit raw environment, resource selection function model: P = eZ / (1 eZ), where z = 246.980-1.059 vegetation cover -0.703 × distance to water -1.403 × the slope -1.388 × vegetation cover -45.005 x aspect, the correct prediction of the model was 93.9%. That badger cave select the vegetation cover, from the distance of water, vegetation cover, slope and aspect were negatively correlated.
