Abstract .Seabuckthorn is a main species of eco economical type for soil and water conservation afforestation in semi arid region of China and has played increasingly effect on eco environmental construction in the Northwest, Northeast and North of China. Based on the domestic research achievements, the developing of seabuckthorn resources in China has been introduced briefly, and the characteristics of function on soil and water conservation of planted seabuckthorn forest effect are analyzed. Function of Seabuckthorn forest depends on three layers of canopy, litter and soil root system to bring into playing soil and water conservation effect. The new research progress of seabuckthorn function on soil and water conservation have been reviewed from the aspects of canopy layer, litter layer, soil root system and the total benefits of seabuckthorn. Based on these, some research fields that should be strengthened to study in the future are put forward.
