    Abstract:
    By laboratory incubation experiment, under aerobic and submerged soil moisture conditions, we investigated the mineralization of soil organic carbon (SOC) and contents of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) with different nitrogen inputs in a freshwater marsh soil. The results showed that under aerobic condition, there were no significant effects on the mineralization of SOC and contents of DOC as the net nitrogen input was 1 mg x g(-1) (N1), however, they were significantly higher than control and N1 treatments when nitrogen input increased to 2 and 5 mg x g(-1) (N2, N3), and the amount of DOC was respectively 187.22% and 203.25% higher than control (250.62 mg x kg(-1)). Under submerged condition, all N treatments restrained the mineralization of SOC, and the content of DOC was respectively 88.34% (N1), 82.69% (N2) and 80.04% (N3) lower than control (642.52 mg x kg(-1)). There were significant positive correlations between the contents of DOC and the amounts of cumulative C by mineralization (R2 was 0.939 and 0.843, respectively), which suggested that the changes of DOC affected by N input might be one of the important reasons that arose the differences of SOC mineralization. The results also indicate that as the waterlogged environment disappeared in wetland, the supply of exogenous nitrogen might bring large loss of SOC through enhancing the mineralization of SOC and leaching of DOC.
