Simulation of water characteristic curve in the soil profile of the collapsing gully on granite area of South China based on the fractal theory

[Background] Collapsing gully, a serious soil erosion phenomenon in granite areas of South China, occurs mainly on mound or hill slopes under the interaction of water and gravity, causing severe destructions and threats in a wide range, including Hubei, Hunan, Jiangxi, Anhui, Fujian, Guangdong, and Guangxi, mainly south to the Yangtze River, and hence a grave impact on the economy in these hilly regions. [Methods] In order to explore the relationship between the soil moisture and the development of the collapsing gully, a field survey and indoor analysis were used to investigate the relationship between the soil moisture and the collapsing gully. The soil water characteristic curve of granite was simulated by fractal theory with Brooks and Corey model. The samples of profile ( surface soil, red soil, transition layer, sand layer, and debris layer ) in granite collapsing gully of Tongcheng County were collected, and the relationship between fractal dimension and soil particle size were analyzed by measuring the soil particle size distribution and soil moisture content. At the same time, the fractal theory of soil particle size was applied to simulate the soil water characteristic curve. Further, based on a comparison of estimated and measured results, the feasibility of estimating the soil water characteristic curve by fractal theory was explored. [Results] The higher the soil clay content in the profile of collapsing gully was, the larger the fractal dimension of soil particle size was; the larger the fractal dimension of soil particle size was, the larger the fractal dimension value of soil water characteristic curve was, indicating that there was a solid linear relationship between the two; the predicted values from the simulation of soil water characteristic curve by the fractal theory and measured values were in fine consistence, the accuracy of simulation results increased with the depth of soil increasing. The simulation effect was better for the soil containing less soil clay and silt content and more sand content. [Conclusions] The research results lay a foundation for the exploration of the mechanism of granite collapsing gully, which provides the guiding significance for the study of the water in collapse gully.

Effects of salt stress on activities of antioxidant enzymes and MDA of elm clones

[Background] The coastal saline soil is formed by the seawater immersion in the river sediments, with salting and salt characteristics of a typical modern seawater effects. The typical characteristic of coastal saline-alkali soil is that the content of NaCl and the groundwater level are high.Chlorides, sulfates and salt content in the soil directly affect the survival of the germination of seeds, limiting the growth and yield of plants, which has become the most direct factor of vegetation restoration in coastal saline-alkali soil area. Ulmus pumila L. is the most widely distributed and important fast growing hardwood timber species that has solid tolerance to drought, cold, salt and wind. It is the most important timber species in vast north plains, salinealkali areas and desert to construct useful afforestation, shelter forest and greenings. [Methods] In order to cultivate, modify and utilize salinized soil of coastal saline area, 3 elm clones (Y65225, Y46 and Y51) were chosen as test materials, watering with 5 salt concentrations of 0.0%, 0.3%, 0.5%, 0.7%, and 0.9% by pot-cultivated experiments in the greenhouse. The activities of dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), peroxidase (POD) and mass content of malondialdehyde (MDA) were determined in this study. The change of antioxidant enzymes activity and mass content of MDA and the correlation of the indexes were analyzed. In addition, salt resistance of the 3 clones was comprehensively evaluated by subordination function method. [Results] Y51 sustained high antioxidant enzyme activity under different salt concentrations, meaning it had the strongest antioxidant capacity. While as the antioxidant capacity of Y46 was the worst, because its antioxidant enzyme activity decreased in greatest. MDA was an important indicator of injured cell membrane, which shows that the seedlings are efficiently influenced by the membrane lipid peroxidation. The activities of MDA increased with the salt stress increasing, the greatest increase was from Y46, while the smallest from Y51 and the salt injury to Y51 was the least. The correlation analysis of the measurement indicators for 3 elm clones showed that the correlation of SOD activity and POD activity were significant; besides the CAT activity presented no significant correlation with the above two indicators. The activities of CAT and POD had little significance with the mass content of MDA. Moreover, the activity of SOD showed certain negative correlation with the mass content of MDA, i. e. , the increase of SOD significantly reduced the accumulation of MDA mass content, and therefore enhanced the salt resistance of the elm clones. [Conclusions] Ultimately, through overall assessment, salt resistance of Y51 was the highest, less for Y65225 and the lowest for Y46, indicating that they belonged to the middling salt-tolerant elm clones. We recommend that Y51 is the preferred clone in afforestation in the coastal areas. The results of this paper may also provide a certain theoretical significance for cultivating elm clones in the future.

Correlation between initial soil moisture content and the characteristics of collapsing gullies in granite regions

[Background] The soil disintegrating characteristics is an important indicator of the soil erosion of red soil in southern China, and also the critical basis for conducting the soil conservation. Tongcheng county is one of the typical granite regions in southeastern Hubei Province, with the largest quantity and the most centralized distribution of collapsing gullies. Samples selected in Tongcheng are representative in the subject. [Methods] The influences of the correlations between the initial soil moisture content and the disintegrating characteristics of different soil layers on the occurrence mechanism of the collapsing gullies were analyzed. Soil samples of two 3-meter-TVD (true vertical depth) soil profiles were collected in Tongcheng. According to different criteria such as color and texture of weathering crust of granite, the soil profiles can be divided into 4 different layers from top to bottom,including the eluvial horizon, illuvial horizon, transitional horizon, and parent horizon. To each horizon, this study set 6 experimental groups of 6 different levels of initial soil moisture from dry to saturation, by controlling the length of air-drying duration, and using disintegration tester to conduct disintegrate experiment with the soil samples. [Results] The results proved that at different levels of the initial soil moisture content, soil of eluvial horizon and illuvial horizon disintegrated in a slow progress and the soil of transitional horizon and parent horizon did fast. The initial soil moisture content had a considerable effect on the speed to complete the disintegration of the eluvial horizon and illuvial horizon, while little impact on the easily-disintegrated soil of the other two layers. The maximum disintegration also was affected by the initial soil moisture content, the maximum disintegration of the eluvial and illuvial horizon significantly increased with the decrease of the initial moisture content, and the disintegration was approximately complete under air-dried condition. The disintegration of the transitional and parent horizon was fully completed at any level of initial soil moisture content, so the maximum disintegration was less affected by the initial soil moisture content. Drawing and analyzing the graphical sheets of the disintegration amount of different horizons in different soil moisture, the graphs showed that the disintegration amount presented an increasing trend with the time varying; the influence of disintegrating time on the disintegration amount of the transitional and parent horizon at different levels of initial soil moisture content appeared S curve. [Conclusions] Hence, it can be inferred that in a granite profile, the soil of the transitional horizon and parent horizon disintegrated more easily and formed the niche, which resulted in the head erosion of the collapsing gully. This provided a basis for further research on the collapsing of granite and laid a foundation for the study of the occurrence mechanism of the collapsing gullies.

Characteristics of slope runoff and sediment yield under individual rainfall events in southern red soil region

[Background] It is significant for slope soil loss control, soil and water resources utilization and management to study slope soil infiltration, runoff and sediment yield characteristics at slope scales. [Methods] Based on the field artificial runoff plots in the Promotion Test Station of Wuhua County in Guangdong Province, the characteristics of soil infiltration and runoff and sediment yield were investigated and analyzed with the natural rainfall events of 2014. The experimental treatment includes: the natural abandoned land (NAL), artificial forest (AF), as well as shrubs and grass land (SGL). [Results] There was a significant correlation (P < 0.05,R2 = 0.95) between infiltration amount (Inf ) and the surface vegetation cover (Lsvc). Inf increased firstly and then decreased with the rainfall intensity (Rai ) increasing. There was a critical Rai which induced the largest infiltration amount. The critical Rai for the AF and SGL ranged from 19.9 to 27.8 mm/ h, both were larger than that under the NAL. There are significant negative correlations ( P < 0.05) between runoff depth, soil loss and Lsvc with all the correlation coefficients over 0.9. Erosion rate was positively related to runoff coefficient by a power function, the sediment concentration increased with runoff coefficient and rainfall erosivity increasing by logarithmic functions, soil loss increased with both rainfall erosivity and runoff depth increasing by linear functions. [Conclusions] The runoff depth of 20 mm was an inflection point for soil loss, the soil loss rate was high when the runoff depth was over 20 mm. Compared with the NAL, the AF and SGL obviously improved soil infiltration and reduced runoff and sediment yield.

Effects of collapse mound erosion on soil available nutrient contents and their stoichiometry ratios

[Background] Collapse mound,called Benggang in Chinese geomorphic pictograph, has been known to describe a kind of erosion phenomenon in hilly and mountainous area among subtropical and fractional tropical climatic zone of south China that gully head collapsed, transported and developed a deep-cut shape, concave-deforming deep-seated failure landform. [Methods] To reveal the effects of collapse mound erosion on soil available nutrients and stoichiometry ratios, we chose 3 collapse mounds of slight, moderate and strong erosion intensities in Huangniken collapse mound groups of Changting County of Southwest Fujian as research object. Soils at 0-10 cm, 10-20 cm and 20-30 cm in 4 positions of upper catchment, collapsing wall, colluvial deposit and channel were sampled, and the contents of ammonium N (NH+4 -N), nitrate N (NO-3 -N), available P (AP) and available K (AK) and related physical-chemical properties, such as mechanical composition, bulk density, water content, and organic matter content were measured, finally, the stoichiometric characteristics of available nutrients were analyzed. [Results] The results indicated that: 1) With erosion intensity increasing, the contents of NO-3 -N and AP occurred in the collapse mound of strong > moderate > slight, and the content of NH+4-N was the lowest and AK was the highest in collapse mound under moderate erosion; horizontally, the diminishing order of contents of soil available nutrients were displayed as following: AK > NH+4-N >NO-3-N > AP, while the content of each available nutrient decreased vertically as soil depth increasing,and their variance of the same erosion intensity was very little. 2) With different erosion intensities, AN(NH+4 -N + NO-3 -N) / AP ratio showed: slight > moderate > strong, and there was significant difference (P < 0.05) between slight and moderate collapse mound; AK/ AN ratio was in moderate >slight > strong, and there was significant difference (P <0.05) between moderate and strong collapse mound; AK/ AP ratio was in slight > strong > moderate, and difference was significant (P < 0.05) between slight and moderate. 3) From upper catchment, collapsing wall, colluvial deposit and channel, the averaged content of NH+4-N and NO-3 -N showed a downward tendency, while AP increased gradually, and AK was the lowest at colluvial deposit, but in 3 other sections they varied slightly under different erosion intensities; meanwhile, AN/ AP and AK/ AP ratios decreased from slope of catchment area to channel, but the value of AK/ AN ratio was the highest at channel. 4) Stoichiometric ratios of soil available nutrients were closely correlated to sand, silt, pH value and organic matter, but they were impacted slightly by the clay, bulk density and water content. [Conclusions] collapse mound erosion resulted in variation of soil available nutrients and stoichiometry ratios with different layers and position.

Distribution characteristics of soil moisture and salinity in the soil columns with planting Tamarix chinensis under different groundwater mineralization

[Background] Soil salinization is one of the major features of the ecological environment in the Yellow River Delta, and groundwater is the main water resource for plant growth and development in this saline soil. This study aims to provide scientific basis for the rational utilization of saline soil in the muddy coast, and management of planting protection forest for soil and water conservation. [Methods] In order to investigate the response of the distribution characteristics of soil moisture and salinity under different groundwater salinity, the soil columns with planting 3-year Tamarix chinensis Lour were selected as experimental material, and soil columns without planting as control (CK). The parameters of soil moisture and salinity, such as soil water content, soil salt content and absolute concentration of soil solution, were measured and analyzed under simulating groundwater levels of 1.8 m with 4 groundwater salinity gradients of fresh water (0 g/ L), brackish water (3 g/ L), saline water (8 g/ L) and salt water (20 g/ L), respectively. [Results] The groundwater salinity significantly affected the parameters of soil moisture and salinity under different soil profiles. With the increase of groundwater salinity, the content of soil moisture and salinity in the whole soil columns increased, while the absolute concentration of soil solution decreased. Compared with CK, the mean relative water contents in soil columns with planting T. chinensis at fresh water, brackish water, saline water and salt water decreased by 24.4%, 20.6%, 11.3% and 4.7%, respectively, and the mean soil salt contents of brackish water, saline water and salt water decreased by 6.7%, 5.6% and 8.7%, respectively. With the increase of soil depth under different groundwater salinity, the soil moisture rose, and the absolute concentration of soil solution decreased, while soil salinity decreased firstly and then increased, and reached the minimum value at the soil depth of 80 cm. [Conclusions] With the increase of groundwater mineralization, the content of soil moisture and salinity rose rapidly, especially at the top soil, indicating that planting T. chinensis significantly decreased the water content, salt content and absolute concentration of soil solution in soil columns. However, the effect of planting T. chinensis for decreasing soil moisture weakened with groundwater mineralization increasing, while that on salt inhibition enhanced.

Spatio-temporal variation of the soil and water loss in Changting County of granite red soil eroded area of southern China from 1988 to 2013

[Background] Changting County is one of the most serious counties in the area of granite red soil region in the south of our country, where is also very typical and representative because its soil and water loss has the characteristics of long history, wide area, large degree, and great damage. [Methods] In order to dynamically monitor the spatio-temporal changes of recent years'soil erosion in Changting County that is the demonstration area of soil and water loss management and ecological civilization construction, we used the USLE model to quantitatively estimate the changing situations of this county's soil and water loss in recent 25 years, according to the remote sensing data of 9 periods'Landsat series from 1988 to 2013, and using the topography, soil and meteorological hydrological literatures and with the field trips. [Results]The results showed that,the situation of Changting County's vegetation coverage was fine generally. The areas of higher vegetation coverage were mainly distributed around the county, and the central areas along two sides of Tingjiang River had lower vegetation coverage due to the serious situation of soil and water loss. The vegetation coverage showed a downward trend generally from 1988 to 1994, and became the worst in 1994. During the periods of 1994 to 2003, the situations of vegetation coverage in the most area of this county were improved obviously, especially that of the villages and towns in the middle areas. After 2003, the vegetation coverage changed little in the western areas, but in Cewu, Hetian, Sanzhou, and Zhuotian and some other towns, it increased greatly. The situations of the soil and water loss in Changting's most areas were mild, and the serious areas mainly distributed in Changting's middle area and southern towns. Especially, Hetian Town, Zhuotian Town, Sanzhou Township and Cewu Township were the most serious areas suffering from soil erosion. The results of remote sensing dynamic monitoring during 1988 to 2013 showed that the whole situation of the soil and water loss was improved significantly. It became worse and worse from 1988 to1994, and was at the worst in 1994. Later the situation was improved year by year after 1994, and especially after 2003, the both situations of the vegetation cover and middle area's soil and water loss in Changting got better. [Conclusions] The analysis mentioned above proves that using the USLE model to estimate the soil erosion modulus of Changting County may have high accurate and reliable results, which really reflects the temporal and spatial changes of this county's soil erosion over the last 25 years. The results show the changing situations and the treatment effect of the soil and water loss in Changting County, as well as provide a scientific basis to understand its current present situations and orient the corresponding treatment directions.

Ecological stoichiometry characteristics of eroded red soil in different restoration years

[Background] Large areas of degraded lands have been restored in red soil regions of south China since 1980s, which provides tremendous ecological and economic services such as soil and water conservation, carbon sequestration and environment protection. Some problems such as soil degradation,soil and water loss and tree disease decline, however, also appeared after several decades of ecological restoration due to lack of knowledge about soil characteristics, which seriously threatens the stability and sustainability of plantation. The contents of carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorous are important indexes of forest management, which respond positively to the environmental conditions. In recent years, the ecological stoichiometry has received considerable attentions. However, few studies have been reported about the patterns of soil stoichiometry across ecological restoration. [ Methods ] We took Pinus. massoniana woodlands as research objects, and determined the content variations of total organic carbon (C), total nitrogen (N), and total phosphorous (P) in soil, as well as ecological stoichiometric ratios across different ecological restoration years at 6 sites. Six P. massoniana woodlands were the ones restored by 0 year (CK1), 2 years, 13 years, 30 years, 33 years, and secondary forest (CK2), respectively. Those study sites were expected to be distinguished at the level of ecological restoration years along the typical eroded red soil region in Hetian town, Changting County, Fujian Province. [Results] 1) The contents of C and N in soil increased in the restoring process of degraded red soil. However, the P content was not considerable changed. The soil C, N and P contents in the forest of restored 2-33 years were still significantly lower than those in CK2. 2) The ratios of C:N, C:P and N:P tended to increase with the restored years increasing, especially soil C:N ratio of restored 2-33 years was approaching to those in CK2. 3) C content and C:N, C content and C:P, N and N:P all were in positive correlation, but P content had no significant correlation with N:P. [Conclusions] Soil C, N and P contents were out of balance in the non-restored eroded red soil (CK1). Despite some areas have been restored for 30 or 33 years, the nutrient contents still were lower than those in secondary forest (CK2). In other words, the typical eroded red soil restoration is a long-term process. Moreover, soil stoichiometry ratios were mainly restricted by soil C and N contents in the restoring process of degraded red soil. It suggests that a vegetation recovery is more sensitive to N than to P at this typical eroded red soil region. Thus, this study will help to reveal the nutrient cycling of P. massoniana woodlands by combing with stoichiometric characteristics of soil C, N, and P comprehensively and systematically. Therefore, it is very important to guide the ecological restoration of eroded red soil,and further improving the productivity of forest system should be carried out.

NDVI spatial distribution and its correlation with land-use in Dan River Watershed of Shaanxi Province

[Background] Vegetation coverage is the main body of terrestrial ecosystem. Detecting the spatial distribution pattern of vegetation and its correlation with land-use will benefit the regional ecological environment protection and soil erosion control. [Methods] In this study, taking the Dan River Watershed, the water source of the middle route of the South to North Water Diversion Project, as the research area, MODIS 250-m NDVI data and GIS technology were used to obtain spatial distribution features of the different NDVI degree in the case of elevation, slope-degree and slope-direction via overlap of distribution maps of NDVI and topographic factors maps extracted from digital elevation model. Finally, the correlation between NDVI and land-use types was analyzed. [Results] The results showed that: 1) The average NDVI value was 0.85, which indicated that the ecological environment was fine in Dan River Watershed. The high vegetation coverage distributed in marginal areas of watershed, and relatively concentrated in northeast and southeast; while the middle vegetation coverage distributed in low mountain, and relatively concentrated in northwest and south. Low vegetation coverage distributed in the Dan River valley as point and linear way, especially in city area. 2) At the different elevation and slope- degree, the distribution of area percent of high and middle vegetation coverage was assumed as single peak. The vegetation coverage area percent was proximal zero in the flat. The vegetation coverage area in the case of different slope-directions was not different dramatically. 3) Except different slope-direction, at different elevation and slope-degree, the high and middle vegetation coverages were significantly correlated with farmland, forestland and grassland. Moreover, low vegetation coverage was significantly in correlation with construction land and waters in the different topographic factors. [Conclusions] Some conclusions have been obtained that the degree of vegetation coverage showed obvious revese distribution characteristics with human activities range in Dan River Watershed, which indicated that human activities had a great impact on vegetation distribution Optimization of land use structure and appropriate increase of area were beneficial to improve the soil and water conservation function of Dan River Watershed.

Structure and function model of Chinese fir and its mixed-forest:A case study in Jiangle state-owned forest farm, Fujian Province

[Background] Due to the deterioration of ecological environment, forest service functions were getting more and more attention. Forest function is closely influenced by the structure. It has been the research focus that how to quantitative describe the relationship between forest structure and function. The purpose of this study is to define the quantitative relationship between Cunninghamia lanceolata forest stand structure and function through the multiple regression model, and then to improve the forest multi-function management level and forest benefits by adjusting forest structure. [Methods] C. anceolata and its mixed-forest which is typical in Jiangle state-owned forest farm in Fujian Province were taken as an example. Seventeen easy measuring factors (stand age (A), stand average diameter at breast height (DBH), stand average height (H), stand density, maximum water holding capacity of litter, soil non-capillary water capacity, total P, total K, total N, organic matter content, tree layer biomass, shrub layer biomass, herb layer biomass, shrub richness, herb richness, shrub diversity, herb diversity) were chosen as independent variables ( IV), functions including forest biomass accumulation, water conservation, soil conservation and species diversity conservation were considered as dependent variables, then a forest structure and function model was built by multiple linear regression method, and a forest comprehensive function model was finally established by principal components analysis method. [Results] The stand biomass per hectare was mainly determined by A, DBH and stand density (R2 = 0.801 4). Water conservation function was mostly influenced by A, DBH, H and stand density (R2 = 0.5612). Soil conservation function was mainly affected by A, DBH and H (R2 =0.561 2). Richness and diversity of undergrowth were determined by A, DBH, H and stand density (R2 =0.661 8). Factors including A, DBH and stand density had influences on all of the studied forest functions, while stand average height had a significant effect on forest water conservation function. In the forest comprehensive function model, first five principal components, respectively, reflected the forest timber production function, species diversity conservation function, soil onservation function, biomass accumulation function and water conservation function. Among the 55 sample plots, the highest forest comprehensive function index (FI) was 453 (No. 19) while the lowest was -153 (No. 5). Sample plot No. 19 had a significantly higher index in A, DNH, H and tree layer biomass than No. 5. [Conclusions] Forest multi-function was mainly determined by stand age and average DBH. 82% of Chinese fir forest had a powerful forest comprehensive function, however, 18% of Chinese fir forest had a weak timber production capacity and diversity protection ability, which needs forest stand structural adjustment to raise its forest multi-function level.

Influence of riparian vegetation on surface runoff and sediment in Li River of Guilin City

[Background] Hydrological data in Li River showed that the distribution of its water resource was not uniformity. During the flood season a large amount of sediment along with the runoff flowed into the river due to the vegetation degradation, which caused the deposition of the river and the increasing of the river bed. The rainfall and surface runoff is one of the main causes of soil and water loss, and the accompanied environmental problems from soil erosion such as riverbed elevation and water quality deterioration should be solved urgently. Usually the external natural factors cannot be controlled, but the controllable factors such as the improvement of the surface cover and the soil condition can effectively alleviate the soil erosion on the slope. [Methods] In this study, 7 experimental plots were established according to the different vegetation configuration. Plots were built in vegetation strips of Li River in Guilin, Guangxi Autonomous Region, where the slope was 5°. We set the rain collecting pool in the area of plots爷outlet, which aimed to collected surface runoff flows through the plots. During the flood season we observed the runoff and sediment loss under the condition of natural rainfall, the runoff was measured through the volume method, and the sediment content was measured by the water quality analyzer in this experiment. The data were processed by Excel 2007 and analyzed by SPSS18.0 software for correlation analysis. [Results] 1)Vegetation significantly intercepted runoff and sediment, the higher the vegetation coverage was, the better the interception was; thus the vegetation coverage should be increased in the restoration areas, which could effectively prevent and control soil erosion. 2) The riparian vegetation covered by Setaria plicata intercepted runoff and sediment better than others, S. plicata should be preferably selected as the shore plants in bare degradation area of Li River. 3) Pure herbaceous vegetation intercepted sediment better than that of grass and shrub vegetation. However different vegetation arrangements had their respective advantages and disadvantages, during vegetation restoration we should choose different vegetation configuration modes according to the needs. 4) Surface runoff and sediment were positively correlated with rainfall and rainfall intensity at the level of P <0.01, there was a close linear relationship between runoff and sediment. [Conclusions] Thus, through some ways such as increasing vegetation cover on bare slope surface, selecting S. plicata as the fast green grass in Li River, establishing the interception measures on the top of slope, and so on, the soil and water loss could be effectively reduced, the non-point source pollution caused by soil erosion could be alleviated.

Impacts of climate variability and human activities on runoff of Minjiang River Basin

[Background] Quantitative analysis on the effects of climate variability and human activities on runoff is one of the keys to inquiring about runoff change mechanism and control of soil erosion. Minjiang River is the largest river in Fujian Province,and the change of water resources has important influence on social economy and ecological environment. In recent years, many researches focused on the change characteristics of runoff, precipitation and temperature in Minjiang River Basin. However, little studies have reported on the change characteristics of potential evaporation, and the relative effects of climate variability and human activities on runoff. [Methods] The observed monthly river discharge of 4 hydrological stations and monthly meteorological data (precipitation, temperature, wind, sunshine hours, and relative humidity) of 23 meteorological stations for the period 1960 2010 were collected. Characteristics of the variation of hydro-climatic changes over the last 51 years were analyzed based on the TFPW-MK, and the relative effects of climate variability and human activities on runoff were investigated based on an empirical discriminant method and climate elasticity method. [Results] Firstly, runoff and precipitation of the Minjiang River were on the rise in general while potential evaporation was declining and had a sudden change in the early 1970s. Secondly, relative effect of climate variability was greater than that of human activities in Minjiang River Basin and three sub-basins under different decades relative to 1960s, except in the beginning of 21st century in Jianxi River sub-basin and Shaxi River sub-basin, in which the contributions of human activities accounted for 60% and 52% of the changes in streamflow, respectively. Additionally, the contribution of the climate variability on the runoff in Minjiang River Basin and Futunxi River sub-basin was the largest in the 21st Century, accounting for 86% and 89% of runoff changes respectively, and the contribution of the climate variability in Jianxi River sub-basin and Shaxi River sub-basin was the largest in 1990s, accounting for 86% and 89%, respectively. [Conclusions] In general, the results from the empirical discriminant method and climate elasticity method were the same on the whole, climate variability leaded to an increased streamflow while human activities always resulted in a decrease of streamflow. The increase of precipitation and decrease of potential evaporation were the major reasons for the increase of runoff. Moreover, the relative effects of climate variability and human activities varied among sub-basins, and the differences in the internal climate and human activities were the main reasons. The impact of climate variability on runoff was the most significant in the Minjiang main stream and three sub-basins in 1990s; the impact of human activities on runoff was the most significant in the Minjiang main stream and Futunxi River sub-basin in 1990s and in Jianxi River sub- basin and Shaxi River sub-basin in 1980s and the beginning of the 21st century, respectively.

Evaluation on effects of soil improvement for six typical forest types in dry-hot valley

[Background] Dry-hot valley is one of ecologically fragile areas and it is also a difficult strip for vegetation recovery. Forest vegetation plays an important role in reducing water loss and soil erosion, sand prevention, and improving the deteriorating ecological environment. [Methods] We combined the method of the field investigation and indoor analysis to measure the main physical and chemical properties of six types of different woodlands (Pinus armandii + Coriaria nepalensis + Lolium prenne, P. armandii + Larix gmelinii, Juglans regia, P. armandii, Zanthoxylum bungeanum, and Morus alba) and farmland in the dry-hot valley of Qiaojia County. The study also used a method of the subordinate function evaluation to evaluate the effects of the soil improvement for six kinds of forests, which aimed to provide scientific basis and practical reference for the selection of ideal forest types for the project of returning farmland to forest. [Results] The results showed: 1) Soil structure of different woodlands was improved to some degree and soil nutrients were further improved, and moisture content, total porosity, capillary porosity, organic matter, total N, total K and available K decreased with the increase of soil depth between different woodlands,while the soil density showed an opposite trend. In addition, soil density, moisture, organic matter, soil total nutrient and available nutrient all showed an order of mixed forest of trees, shrubs and grasses > mixed trees forest > pure forest. 2) The evaluation on effects of the soil improvement of six kinds of typical forests showed: Pinus armandii + C. nepalensi + L. prenne > P. armandii + L. gmelinii > P. armandii > farmland > M. alba > J. regia > Zanthoxylum bungeanum. [Conclusions] On the whole, the effects of soil improvement were obvious since the project of returning farmland to forest. P. armandii + C. nepalensis + L. prenne had the best effects of soil improvement while P. armandii + Larix gmelinii ranked the second. Among the pure forests, P. armandii had the highest effect of soil improvement, J. regia and M. alba were roughly the same, and Z. bungeanum was the lowest. P. armandii + C. nepalensis + L. prenne (mixed forest of trees, shrubs and grasses) was an ideal model for soil improvement in the local area, which was suitable for promotion in the dry-hot valley area. We suggest that evaluation of the effects of soil improvement should be carried out from time to time so as to increase the soil uptake of N and P to improve the local ecological environment.

Plant diversity with natural recovery on different topographies in north Shaanxi loess area

[Background] The characteristic of the plant community structure and the plant diversity in the course of natural restoration of vegetation is a scientific basis to construct artificial vegetation in semi- arid loess area of northern Shaanxi, which is the typical fragile ecological region. [Methods] The paper explored what was the influence mechanism of the topography on natural vegetation in this region, for Hegou watershed in Wuqi County of Shaanxi Province as an example. Based on the vegetation survey in 50 sampling plots, the community structure and the plant diversity were nalyzed from three aspects of landform , slope and gradient. [Results] The results showed that the plant community was still mainly herbaceous and the zonal vegetation type was Artemisia sacrorum + Stipa bungeana communities in this watershed, which had been fenced for 15 years. Not only were there Populus simonii and Salix matsudana on gully bottom, but there were also three trees of P. simonii, Ulmus pumila and Ameniaca sibirica and six shrubs of Buddleja alternifolia, Prinsepia utilis, Spiraea trilobata, Caragana korshinskii, Caragana microphylla and Periploca sepium on some micro-topographies of slope aspect with favorable water condition, i. e. , gully, collapse and platform. On different landforms, the order of the richness index was valley slope > gully slope > top valley > gully bottom; that of the diversity index was valley slope > top valley > gully slope > gully bottom; and that of the evenness index diminished from top to bottom. On different slopes, both the diversity and evenness indices were in the same order of size, i. e. , shady slope > semi-sunny slope > semi-shady slope > sunny slope, but the richness index was in the order of semi-shady slope > semi-sunny slope > shady slope > sunny slope. Moreover, with the increase of gradient, the richness index decreased gradually, and the evenness and diversity indices were both of “ S冶types, and its maximum value was at 32 of gradient. [ Conclusions] Therefore, in summary, in the process of artificial vegetation of restoration and reconstruction in this region, we should figure reasonable vegetation layout according to the differences of the restoration ability of natural vegetation on different terrains. In order to enrich the structure and optimize the ecological function of the plant community, the appropriate proportion of trees or shrubs could be configured on gully bottom and some micro-topographies of slope aspect, in where water condition meets the need of trees and shrubs. But on sunny slope, especially the steep slope, it should be the first task to protect and restore the herbaceous community. In addition, to speed up the process of vegetation restoration in the loess area of northern Shaanxi, some positive trees or shrubs should be properly distributed based on artificial measures, such as fish scale pit of collecting water or level bench of reducing gradient.

Water sources of Pinus tabuliformis and Platycladus orientalis before and after rain in northern China

[Background] Mountains in Beijing are in an ecologically fragile area with seasonal drought; therefore, study of water source of typical tree species before and after the rain in arid areas is of great significance. [Methods] By taking Pinus tabulaeformis and Platycladus orientalis in mountains in Beijing as subject, we employed the hydrogen and oxygen isotope technique and measured the isotopic composition in branches of trees, soil, groundwater and rainfall in order to clarify their water source before and after the rain. [Results] The results showed that the soil moisture content and the isotope of the two species showed a vertical change. P. tabuliformis and P. orientalis forest soil were different in soil moisture content before rainfall. Soil moisture content in Platycladus orientalis layers was lower than that in Pinus tabulaeformis. The average soil moisture content was 7.44% and 2.17%, respectively. After the rainfall, soil moisture content in the stands of two typical species were higher than before, the average soil moisture content in the P. orientalis stand increased by 46.1% compared to that before rainfall, while it increased by 38.7% for P. tabuliformis. The intense evaporation of surface soil water caused the isotope fractionation and enrichment heavy isotopes. Decreasing with soil depth, soil water D in P. tabuliformis and P. orientalis stands showed a tendency to increase, and the heavy isotope was enriched. Different plant species had different water sources in the same season, and the same plant species had different water sources before and after the rain, showing an adaptation to their habitats. P. tabuliformis had fewer roots in urface soil, but still absorbed a high amount of topsoil water before rainfall, with a utilization rate of 36.0%; in order to obtain a stable water supply, P. tabuliformis used the developed deep roots to absorb underground water with a utilization rate of 38% and 58.2%, before and after rain, respectively. P. orientalis used deep soil water to maintain normal physiological activities, and the utilization rate was 71.2%. The lateral root in the surface layer soil of 0 -20 cm was sensitive to rainfall, and P. orientalis mainly used surface soil moisture with a utilization rate of 71.6%. [Conclusions] Our results have great significance for artificial afforestation, tree species configuration and alleviation of the water resource shortage in arid and semi-arid areas.

Factors influencing soil splash erosion in rocky mountain area of northern China

[Background] China is one of the countries with most serious soil erosion in the world. In geomorphology and geology, soil erosion is the action of exogenic processes (such as water flow or wind) which remove soil and rock from one location on the earth's crust, then transport them to another location where they are deposited. Eroded sediment may be transported just a few millimeters, or thousands of kilometers. Soil erosion destroys the farmland, decreases agricultural productivity, descends the land fertility, leads to flood disaster and renders bad influence on the soil protection and land development, all because of loss of the nutrient-rich upper soil layers. The soil sediment on the upper soil layers will displace from the surface under the effect of rainfall splashing to other places. The soil sediment will also crush, disperse, and splash, which becomes one of the most important factors for mountain erosion. It occurs globally and becomes one of the most significant environmental problems. [Methods] In this study, taking the rocky mountain area of northern China as the research object, we conducted field experiment of artificial rainfall, used improved Morgan spattering plate and raindrop generator, and employed the stain method in combination with leaf area index to measure soil erosion rate under different conditions. [Results] 1) Splash erosion rate increased with the soil moisture content in the early stage and had a positive correlation with the kinetic energy of raindrops (R2 >0.96,P <0.05). 2) The amount of splash erosion had no linearly negative correlation with the vegetation coverage (R2 >0.99,P <0.05). There was lower splash erosion rate in the condition of higher intensity rainfall with higher vegetation coverage rate. 3) Leaf area changed the diameter of contacting raindrops and plant height changed the rainfall height. Then, plants redistributed the rainfall and changed the kinetic energy of raindrops. The smaller the leaf area index and height were, the stronger the blocking effect of splash erosion was. [Conclusions ] It is valuable to study mountain soil erosion factors for estimating soil erosion quantitatively. The process of rain splashing is short and it is complex to elucidate the single mechanism. Scientists take splashing and surface erosion as a sequential process, while it is not easy to advance the study deeper and more detailed. One raindrop has very little effect on soil erosion, and is difficult to measure the diameter of it; therefore, it is difficult to carry out quantitative research on it. Meanwhile, there are more indoor researches of slash erosion, compared with the outdoor utilization. And the theory of outdoor soil erosion needs to be popularized and applied in the field.

Estimation of meltwater runoff from glaciers and snow cover in Nam Co basin, Tibetan Plateau

[Background] Glacier and snowcover are the key parts of solid water resources in high alpine region, quantitative calculation of meltwater is of significance. Based on the data from the First and Second Glacier Inventory of China, the glacier area in Nam Co basin has shrunk 13.44 km2 at a rate of 1.12 km2 / a in ten years. From the MODIS data (MOD10A2), the seasonal snow produced a large number of meltwater into Nam Co Lake. In the past forty years, the temperature increased at 0.04 ℃/ a, the solid water resources (glacier) reduced by 111.73 *108 m3, and the lake area increased nearly 100km2at rate of 2.1 km2 / a. However, the correlation between temperature rising, glacier melting and lake expansion is not yet clear in Nam Co basin of the Tibetan Plateau, thus it was selected as the study area, where is covered with glaciers (141.88 km2 ) and snow (20%), aiming to better understand the hydrological processes in the high alpine region under the background of global warming. [Methods] The empirical equation was presented to quantify the meltwater amount from glacier on the basis of water balance theory. Empirical values were set for the variations in the equation, including the precipitation (406.70 mm), the evaporation (100.50 mm). The glacier ablation was calculated on the basis of the glacier volume variation. The Snowmelt Runoff Model (SRM) was used to calculate the runoff amount from snow melting in the Nam Co basin, using the WinSRM Version 1.11 software. The feasibility of the SRM was discussed and analyzed. The parameters of the SRM, including the degree day factor, runoff coefficient, lapse rate of temperature, recession coefficients and air temperature, were tested in Nam Co basin using the hydrological data, meteorological data and MODIS remote sensing data (MOD10A2). [Results] The results showed that the empirical equation and the SRM model could be used for the calculation of the meltwater runoff amount from glacier and seasonal snow in Nam Co basin. The calculated annual glacier meltwater runoff was 49.15 mm/a (2.99 *108 m3 / a), and the annual snow meltwater runoff was 8.10 *106 m3 / a. The glacier meltwater runoff was almost 38 times that of the seasonal snow. This meant the glacier meltwater was dominant water resources in the Nam Co basin. The lake area was enlarged with the glacier shrinking when temperature increased. The increased water amount with the lake expansion was nearly 80% of the calculated runoff amount from glacier melting, far more than the calculated meltwater runoff from the seasonal snow. [Conclusions] It is deduced that the dramatic glacier melting in the Nyainqentanglha Mountains at the southeast side of Nam Co basin may be the most important drive factor for the lake expansion in the study area. However, more measurement should be conducted in the high alpine region to improve the accuracy of the calculated results by SRM. Moreover, the correlation between the glacier shrink and the lake expansion should be further investigated.

Control effects of the national key project of soil and water conservation on the soil erosion in Huaihe River Basin

[Background] The national key project has been implemented in the fifth period (2013—2017), taking up a lot of financial, material resources and manpower, however, the investigation and research about the control effects of the national key project on soil erosion were not conducted yet. Therefore, the study of the control effect of the national key project of soil and water conservation on soil erosion in the two project regions may provide the reference for understanding and evaluation of the national key project. [Methods] In this study, we selected two typical project areas, Yimeng mountain area of Shandong Province and Dabie mountain area of Anhui Province, in Huaihe River Basin. Using remote sensing and ground survey to study the change of soil erosion in the project status after the national key project, and analyzing the effect of soil erosion in project regions with different measures. [Results] 1) The reduction rates of soil erosion area in Dayu project region of Yimeng mountain and Taoling project region of Dabie mountain were 88.9% and 76.3% respectively, the reduction rates of soil erosion odulus were 76.7% and 72.1%, and soil erosion modulus were 243 t/ (km2·a) and 314 t/ (km2·a). The effect of prevention and control of soil erosion in Dayu project region was higher than in Taoling project region, which mainly resulted from two reasons: the allocations of the measures in 2 regions were different, and the control effects of the different measures varied. Yimeng mountain and Dabie mountain belonged to two different climatic regions, correspondingly, their leading foundations of soil and water conservation were in different functional areas. Therefore, the occurrence characteristics of soil and water loss, and the prevention and control measures of soil erosion were different. 2) The reduction rate of soil erosion modulus in the terraced project of slope farmland on the 2 regions was 82.5% and 83.8% respectively. The reduction rate of soil erosion modulus in the level-terrace project of afforested slope land was 70.32%. The reduction rate of soil erosion modulus in the enclosure and replanting, and in open forest land was 39.5%, and 55.2% respectively. [Conclusions] There were great reductions of soil erosion and soil erosion modulus after the national key project implemented in the two project regions. The prevention and control effects of soil erosion with different measures were different in the regions of the national key project. The effects of prevention and control of soil erosion in terrace project and level- terrace project were much better than enclosure and replanting, and terrace project better than level- terrace project.

Drought-resistant afforestation techniques for soil moisture conservation by using surface covering in Western Heilongjiang Province

[Background] Strengthening the property of soil moisture conservation is one of important measures for raising afforestation quality in the arid-semiarid areas. The west of Heilongjiang Province is a semiarid area, thus investigating soil moisture conservation technique is urgently needed for increase water-saving, drought-resistance and planting quality in this area. Based on the result of former research, surface covering is an effective measurement for soil moisture conservation in arid-semiarid areas. Our research aimed to evaluate the major surface covering methods used in this area based on the cost and ffectiveness. [Methods] Using 3 measures of surface covering of plastic film, straw and sand, we studied their influences on soil moisture conservation in the semiarid area of Heilongjiang Province. Surface covering blanketed about 1-2 m2 area around rootstock of new plantation, with new plantation that did not adopt any kind of surface covering as contrast. Soil moisture contents at the depth of 20 -30 cm near root zone, plant height growth and afforestation survival rate were periodically monitored. [Results] Based on the data collected in April, June, August and October from 2008 to 2009, we found that surface covering significantly increased the soil moisture content. The improvement in soil moisture content was the most obvious in spring season in which the precipitation was generally low. Comparing to the contrast, soil moisture contents increased by 58.93%, 32.91%, and 24.97% with plastic film, straw, and sand, respectively. We found that surface covering increased the survival rate of afforestation and the growth of plant height. The afforestation survival rate by 3 covering methods of plastic film, straw, and sand raised 13.9, 11.7, and 10.6 percentage points, respectively, in comparison to the contrast. The average annual increment in height of Pinus sylvestris var. mongolica in 6 years from 2008 to 2013 was 23.35%, 5.08%, and 9.64% by plastic film, straw and sand respectively. In comparison to the contrast, the increment of afforestation cost was 4.4% for plastic film covering, 9.3% for straw covering, and 9.2% for sand covering. By comprehensive comparing the cost and survival rate of afforestation with the contrast, the suface covering was a cost-efficient technique. [Conclusions] From comprehensive evaluation of indexes — survival rate, increment in height in the initial 6 years, initial afforestation cost, conclusion is: plastic film covering > sand covering > straw covering > contrast.However, plastic film covering is prone to damage by wind as time prolonging, thus the durability of plastic film covering is not as favorable as sand covering. Beside that, plastic film covering may cause the environmental problem, i. e. , white pollution. While these shortcomings in plastic film covering are solved with the progress of science and technology, for example, using biodegradable plastic film, then the surface covering with plastic film covering could be extensively utilized as an effective approach for increasing afforestation quality in arid-semiarid areas.

Review on the methods to determine deep percolation in arid and semi-arid areas

[Background] Deep percolation (DP ) is termed as the movement of water from soil surface to sufficient depths, usually below the root zone. It generally occurs when infiltrated water exceeds the storage capacity of the soil and plays an vital role in hydrologic cycle. ccurate evaluation of the deep percolation is crucial to analyze the processes of the hydrologic cycle. Furthermore, deep percolation is pivotal for the management and rational evelopment of groundwater resources, especially in arid and semi-arid regions where water resources is deficient. [Methods] This paper reviews several approaches to assess deep percolation in arid and semi-arid regions, i. e. , empirical, physical, tracer, and numerical modelling. [Results] The principle, applicability, merits and drawbacks of the above- mentioned four approaches are commented. Due to the empirical coefficient requires calibration, the empirical pproach is limited while it is applied in the other regions. Physical approach includes lysimeter method, soil water flux method, water balance method, Darcy method, and underground water-tablefluctuation method. The tracer approach is used to estimate deep percolation by the identification of peak value, profile shape, and the amount of tracers, but this approach cannot directly measure the deep percolation; moreover, the spatial variation in tracers is not considered in it. Theoretically, the approach of numerical modelling can be used to estimate and predict the deep percolation under any ircumstance. Nevertheless, it is difficult to obtain the parameters that is necessary for the numerical modelling. [Conclusions] Considering the advantages and isadvantages of each method, the integration of existing evaluation methods and mutual verification of them can improve the precision of the simulation. Due to the spatial and temporal variability of DP , the integration of existing methods and GIS may evaluate the spatial heterogeneity of DP at large scale. Simultaniously, long-term series of field observation may not only acquire the dynamic information of DP , but also provide the data support for the parameters of each approach.
