Abstract: |
Both micro-experiment and conventional chemical methods were adopted to study the changes of soil
physical-chemical properties and soil enzyme activities under different vegetation restoration types . The results showed that compared with farmland,soil bulk density increased first and then declined, and pH declined at a range of 1.47%~ 5.52%; Soil organic matter content and total nitrogen increased by 9.76%~71.54% and 17.39%~62.32%; total
phosphorus declined except 30-year Robinia pseudoacacia; Available nutrients increased slightly. The activity of soil
Urease, Catalase,Alkaline phosphatase, and invertase all increased along with the vegetation rehabilitation ages, by
39%~229%,34%~96%, 25%~149% and 74%~250% as compared with the farmland. Enzyme activities were
positively related to soil organic carbon and total nitrogen. In the gully region of the Loess Plateau, vegetation restoration can ameliorate soil physical-chemical properties and increase enzyme activity. |
