Content and Density of Soil Soluble Nitrogen Components at Different Vegetation Restoration Stages in Hilly Region of Central Hunan Province, China
L. glaber-Cleyera japonica-Cyclobalanopsis glauca evergreen broad-leaved forest (LAG) to represent the secondary forest successional sequence in this region. Fixed sample plots were set up
and soil samples (0-40 cm) were collected and divided into four layers (0-10
10-20
20-30 and 30-40 cm). The contents and density of soil soluble organic nitrogen (SON)
ammonium nitrogen (NH4+—N) and nitrate nitrogen (NO3-—N) were determined
and the correlations between the contents of SON
NH4+—N and NO3-—N and soil clay percentage
total nitrogen (TN)
organic carbon (SOC) and microbial biomass were analyzed. The results showed that the contents of SON and NH4+—N in each soil layer increased with the vegetation restoration. Compared with LVR
contents of SON in 0-40 cm soil layers in LAG
PLL and LCQ increased respectively by 225.78%
121.22% and 54.73%
while contents of NH4+—N increased respectively by 22.10%
14.74%
and 7.80%. The contents of NO3-—N in each soil layer decreased first and then increased with the vegetation restoration. The NO3-—N contents in each soil layer of LAG were the highest
while LCQ was the lowest. The densities of SON and NH4+—N in the 0-40 cm soil layer were 143.82~528.12 kg/hm2 and 55.73~65.57 kg/hm2 respectively. Compared with LVR
the densities of SON in LAG
PLL and LCQ increased by 267.20%
98.40%
and 86.30%
while NH4+—N increased by 17.70%
7.90%
and 11.60%
respectively. The densities of NO3-—N in 0-40 cm soil layer was 22.91~25.87 kg/hm2. Compared with LVR
LAG increased by 13.16%. The growth rates of SON and NH4+—N densities between different stages showed the characteristics of fast-slowly-fast
while that of NO3-—N showed the characteristics of slow-slowly-fast. The effects of soil physicochemical properties and microbial biomass on SON and NH4+—N were greater than that of NO3-—N. In conclusion
the vegetation restoration was conducive to the accumulation of soil N
improved the contents and densities of soil soluble nitrogen components and increased soil available N.
