    Abstract:
    Vegetation restoration can effectively enhance soil quality and soil organic carbon (SOC) sequestration. In this study, the distribution characteristics of soil nutrients and SOC along soil profile (0-100 cm), and their responses to restoration years (16, 28, 38 years) were studied in Caragana korshinskii plantations in the southern mountainous area of Ningxia, compared with cropland and natural grassland. The results showed that: 1) the contents of SOC, soil total nitrogen (TN), total phosphorus (TP), particulate organic carbon (POC), mineral-associated organic carbon (MAOC) and the proportion of particulate organic carbon to total organic carbon (POC/SOC) all decreased with increasing soil depth. The ratio of mineral-associated organic carbon to total organic carbon (MAOC/SOC) exhibited an opposite trend. 2) The contents of SOC, TN, TP, C:P, N:P, POC and MAOC gra-dually decreased as the restoration years increased. However, the C:N ratio showed no significant change. The POC/SOC ratio initially increased and then decreased, while the MAOC/SOC ratio decreased initially and then increased. 3) In three different types of vegetation, POC, MAOC, and SOC showed a highly significant positive linear correlation, with the increase in SOC mainly depended on the increase in MAOC. The SOC, TN, TP, POC and MAOC contents in natural grassland and C. korshinskii plantations were significantly higher than those in cropland. In conclusion, soil nutrients and POC and MAOC contents of C. korshinskii plantations gradually decreased with the increases in restoration years. However, when compared with cropland, natural grassland and C. korshinskii plantations demonstrated a greater capacity to maintain and enhance soil nutrient and carbon storage. 植被恢复能有效改善土壤质量,促进土壤有机碳(SOC)的固存。本研究以宁南山区0~100 cm土层不同恢复年限(16、28、38年)柠条林为研究对象,以农田和天然草地作为对照,分析了土壤养分及有机碳组分沿剖面分布特征及其对恢复年限的响应。结果表明: 1)SOC、土壤全氮(TN)、全磷(TP)、颗粒态有机碳(POC)和矿物结合态有机碳(MAOC)含量以及颗粒态有机碳占总有机碳的比例(POC/SOC)均随土层深度增加而降低,而矿物结合态有机碳占总有机碳的比例(MAOC/SOC)呈相反趋势; 2)随着柠条恢复年限的增加,SOC、TN、TP、C∶P、N∶P、POC和MAOC含量逐渐降低,C∶N无显著变化,POC/SOC先增后减,MAOC/SOC先减后增;3)在3种土地类型中,POC、MAOC与SOC之间均呈极显著正线性相关关系,且SOC的增加主要依赖于MAOC的增加。天然草地和柠条林地土壤SOC、TN、TP、POC和MAOC含量均显著高于农田。综上,柠条林地土壤养分及POC、MAOC含量随着恢复年限增加逐渐降低;与农田相比,天然草地和柠条林地维持和提高土壤养分及碳储存的能力较高。.
