Evolution of soil anti-erodiblity of
Robinia pseudoacacia
L. plantation at different ages in Hilly-gully region of Loess Plateau
In order to reveal the effects of plantation on soil anti-erodibility,
Robinia pseudoacacia
plantation at different ages in Hilly-gully region of Loess Plateau was chosen to analyze the changes of soil anti-erodibility,and the slope cropland was used as contrasts.The results indicate that the contents of >0.25 mm soil water-stable aggregates,>0.5 mm soil water-stable aggregates,mean weight diameter and organic C increase significantly compared with slope cropland and increase with ages.Aggregate state and aggregate degree are improved markedly compared with slope cropland and declined firstly then raised with increasing of ages.Ratio of soil structure deterioration,dispersive rate and disporsive coefficient take on wavelike drop.Small microaggregates and mechanical composition transform into ones with much bigger diameter.Results of correlation analysis shows that the >0.25 mm soil water-stable aggregates,>0.5 mm soil water-stable aggregates,mean weight diameter and organic C positively correlated with N,available N,available K and total P(
P
<0.05),but negative with soil density.High negative correlation is observed between ratio of structure deteriorative,dispersive rate,dispersive coefficient and total N,available N,total P.Soil anti-erodibility index(I)rise with increase of ages and can generally reflect the change of soil anti-erodibility.It can be concluded that the poor soil anti-erodibility of slope cropland under erosive environment owing to human cultivation activities is improved greatly by plantation.

Reduction effects of grass on runoff and sediment and its mechanical mechanism
Reduction effects of grass on runoff and sediment as well as its mechanical mechanism was studied under rainfall intensities of 45,87 and 127 mm/h on 20°grass slope using simulated rainfall experiment.The results showed that soil infiltration rate of grass slope was 2.1-4.2 times higher than that of bare slope.Flow velocity,runoff and sediment amount on grass slope decreased by 77.3%-79.8%,51.9%-99.1% and 93.6%-99.2% respectively compared with those on bare slope.Relationship model between flow shear stress and sediment amount was built by analyzing of carrying force of soil partial,which can be used to predict the amount of soil loss on grass slope.The critical flow shear stress of 2.857 N/m
2
on grass slope and 0.861 N/m
2
on bare slope were measured based on the relationship model under experiment condition.The sediment amount ncreased with the increase of flow shear stress.The experiment results are meaningful for quantifying runoff and sediment reduction and deepening soil erosion mechanical process also.

Calculation of the soil erosion modulus of basin with the measurement method of sedimentation in Karst area
For studying the soil erosion modulus in the Karst rocky desertification areas,the measurement method of the sedimentation at the deposition zone of basin is used to calculate the soil erosion modulus and to speculate on the rocky desertification process of the Mawoshan of Wumeng range in the Karst area.The environmental effects on the soil erosion modulus,caused by human being's activities in Karst rocky desertification areas are discussed simultaneously.The research results indicate that the soil erosion modulus in the Mawoshan is very high,up to 2 900.55 t/(km
2
·a),which can reflect the position of the soil erosion objectively in the karst rocky desertification areas.Considering nothing but total quantity changes in the process of calculating the soil erosion modulus,the measurement method of the sedimentation at the deposition zone should be choiced firstly for the soil erosion calculation in the Karst rocky desertification areas where there is no observation data and survey station.

Analysis on historical evolution and driving force of rainfall and runoff of Harbin Station in Songhua River
As rainfall and runoff are important natural forces to cause soil erosion,studying characteristics of runoff and its affecting factors has significance to understand the laws of soil erosion.Long sequence data of 1909—2005(lack 1943—1952) of the rainfall and runoff and the methods of runs theory,Mann-Kendall and double mass curve were used,and annual variability of the average rainfall and runoff depth of Harbin Station on the Songhua River were analyzed.The results show that: Over the past 87 years,average rainfall is 501.7 mm, and average runoff depth is 106.3 mm.In Harbin Station,positive run-length of average rainfall and runoff depth are 1.7 years and 2.1 years respectively,which are less than their negative run-length 2.0 years and 2.7 years respectively.So rainfall and runoff are even more likely to appear dry years.Although there are no obvious trends in the average rainfall and runoff depth,there are significant stage characters.Both rainfall and runoff depth may be divided into three wet stages,one flat stage and three dry stages.Due to human activities,the rainfall-runoff sequence may be divided into 1909—1915,1916—1927,1928—1978 and 1979—2005 four phases.

Infiltration experiment of coal-ash mixed with earth
The experiment was done at the soil and water conservation institute of Shanxi agricultural university dealing with the coal-ash infiltration laws of three kinds of density(0.9,1.0,1.1 g/cm
3
)and three kinds of mixed ratio(1.0∶0.5,1.0∶1.0,1.0∶2.0).The results showed that: 1)with the density increasing,the infiltration rate of coal-ash deceased,and the relationship between density and infiltration rate is a power function;2) the density and surface solidity of the coal-ash increased as the coal-ash mixed with the earth,and its infiltration rate deceased;3) the infiltration rate of two mixed materials is mainly dependent on the medium value diameter,if it's bigger,the rate is also bigger;4) the infiltration process can be expressed by universal empirical formula with the pure coal-ash,and expressed by the universal empirical formula and Kostiakov formula with the mixed coal-ash.But there are small offsets between the experimental and simulated curves with the small density in the secondary phase of infiltration process.The research is importance in reducing dust pollution,decreasing infiltration and predicting runoff amount in the coal-ash storage place.

Application of Le Bissonnais method to study soil aggregate stability in the Hilly-gully region
Soil aggregate stability is a key indicator for soil quality evaluation.The transition area from forest to grassland zone of the Hilly-gully region,located in Yangou Catchments in Yan'an City,was taken as a research site.Soil samples from six vegetation types during vegetation natural restoration were used to measure soil water-stable aggregate using Le Bissonnais(LB) method,and compared the results of LB 3-treatments with the Yoder method.The results showed that,in the 3-treatments(fast wetting,slow wetting,and wetting stirring) of LB method,fast wetting(FW) was the most destructive degree to the soil aggregate stability,the distribution of soil water-stable aggregate mainly concentrated in 0.05-0.5 mm;slow wetting(SW) was the least destructive degree to soil aggregate stability,soil water-stable aggregate content was mainly >2 mm;the destructive degree of soil aggregate structure by wetting stirring(WS) was between FW and SW treatments,the soil water-stable aggregates size was well-distributed.It was explained that the primary destructive mechanism of soil aggregate structure was dissipation.During the period of 100a of abandoning cropland,the succession process of vegetation experience is annual herbaceous(4 a)—perennial herbaceous(16 a)—semi shrub(29 a)—shrub(55 a)—arbor(100 a).With the succession process of vegetation,soil water-stability aggregate size shifted from small size to large size,soil structure was improved.The correlation between >0.5 mm soil aggregate content or mean weight diameter(MWD) measured by FW or SW and soil organic carbon or physical clay content was significantly different;but for WS treatment,there was no significant different between soil aggregate content or MWD and soil organic carbon or physical clay content.This result showed that soil organic matter and physical clay content mainly influenced dissipation and disintegration by clay swelling and mechanical stirring had no significant impacts on soil aggregate stability.Comparing with the Yoder method,SW and Yoder method have highly comparability,and SW treatment of LB method was suitable to measure soil water-stable aggregate during vegetation restoration in the Hilly-gully region.

Natural restoration process and diversity change of vegetation on abandoned cropland of Bashan Mountain region
Bashan Mountains,a transition region of North and South China,is an important area of water resources retention in China.The researches on change characteristics of species diversity index and succession process of vegetation restoration on abandoned cropland are very important for artificial vegetation construction.We studied the changes of species diversity on abandoned cropland during natural restoration process of vegetation by using the methods of substituting space series for time series.Results show: 1) The vegetation succession order on abandoned cropland of Bashan Mountains is annual herb community,perennial herb community,miscellaneous shrub and herb community and broadleaf forest community dominated by
Quercus variabilis
or
Quercus variabilis
and
Quercus baronii
,and it generally takes 40-50 years to form this community.2) Species diversity changes with the site environment.All species diversity indexes on shady slope are obviously higher than sunny slope,but nearly with the same change law.In early succession stage,species number,Shannon-wiener index,Simpson index and Pielou index are lower comparatively.With the increase of succession time,all community diversity indexes increase wavily.In the twenty-fifth year of the succession stage,species number,Shannon-wiener index,Simpson index and Pielou index reach to maximum,which are 23,2.5,0.89 and 0.8.When vegetation develops to zonal plant community,all species diversity indexes decrease a little bit,and tend to stablility.This result is very meaningful for ecological improvement by natural vegetation restoration and manual management of vegetation accoding vegetation succession process.

Review of the effects researches of soil and water conservation on sediment reduction in the middle reaches of the Yellow River
The effects of soil and water conservation on sediment reduction in the middle reaches of the Yellow River relate to the overall strategy of the river harnessing.Review of the effects researches of soil and water conservation on sediment reduction,therefore,has a significant reference value for the ongoing revision of comprehensive planning of the Yellow River.The studies of the role of water projects and soil and water conservation on sediment reduction have shown that about 510 million tons of sediment had been impounded each year during 1996-2000,including 100 million tons(19.6%) impounded by reservoirs of the main stream,120 million tons(23.5%) by reservoirs of tributary treams,60 million tons(11.8%) intercepted by irrigation system,200 million tons(39.16%) by warping dams,and 30 million tons(5.9%) by terrace.This ratio of sediment intercepting had changed in the 1980's and 1990's,the proportion of sediment intercepting of water projects had changed a little,while the proportion of water and soil conservation had reduced.The studies also show that about 300 million tons of sediment was intercepted annually by water projects and water and soil conservation in the middle reaches of the Yellow River during the 1970's-1990's,and the figure is 350 million-450 million tons now.To the effects of water projects and soil and water conservation on sediment reduction,we consider that the storm intensity is decreased in the soil erosion area of the Loess Plateau in recent years,therefore the data of measured incoming sediment cannot be used as main basis in calculation of current sediment reduction effects of soil and water conservation in revision of comprehensive plan of the Yellow River.The main reason for this is that,the changes of incoming sediment in the middle reaches of the Yellow River depends on the combination of many factors.Therefore,the effects of soil and water conservation on sediment reduction should be studied from now on and for a long time.
