- W4309085412 abstract "D.H. Janzen argued that tropical mountains, for their heights, pose greater migration barriers than temperate mountains owing to lower temperature seasonality, and consequent greater niche and ecosystem specialization. These result in distinct altitudinal zonation under hardly varying temperature lapse rates. The Asian Far East alone provides an opportunity to test this hypothesis owing to latitudinal continuity of evergreen forests from equator to warm temperate zone. With data from four mountains, we find Janzen’s hypothesis broadly correct. The primary and most consistent mediator of forest zonation and therefore species’ habitat specificity is soil, itself indirectly mediated by climate. But declining habitat niche specificity does not proceed north along a continuum, instead in a series of latitudinal steps initiated by quite sudden habitat changes. Tropical montane forests are altitudinally floristically and structurally zoned by factors only indirectly mediated by temperature. Equatorial forests experience continuously wet climates and a frost line at c.4100 m. North of 8°N, temperature and rainfall seasonality increases and winter air frosts descend to c.2000 m. Upper montane forest becomes truncated, while lower montane forest continues to the frost line which remains constant in moist climates. The margin of the wet tropics is pushed north to 27°N by the Himalaya. Annual frost at c.2000 m here marks a narrow ecotone between tropical lower montane forest and warm temperate evergreen lucidophyll forest, a formation unique to east Asia. In equably moist South China, the lowland tropical-warm temperate (‘subtropical’) margin returns to the Tropic of Cancer and appears to be narrow at all altitudes. The temperate forests exhibit less distinct and inconsistent altitudinal zonation, instead manifesting an altitudinal floristic and structural continuum mediated by winter frost frequency and intensity." @default.
