Effects of Soil Erosion-deposition on Soil Nutrients and Enzyme Activities in An Agricultural Watershed of Chinese Mollisol Region
Identifying the effects of soil erosion-deposition on soil nutrients and enzyme activities in agricultural watersheds can provide an important scientific basis for soil erosion evaluation. Binzhou River Basin
a typical thin-layer Mollisol area
was selected as the study area
and two representative slopes were selected in the upstream
midstream and downstream of the basin. 137Cs tracer technique was used to estimate soil erosion-deposition rates and impacts of soil erosion-deposition on soil nutrients (organic matter
total nitrogen and available phosphorus) and soil enzyme activities (invertase
urease and alkaline phosphatase) at both watershed and sloping scales were analyzed. The results showed as follows: (1) The soil erosion rates were the highest in the upstream of the Binzhou River Basin
which were 1.9 and 11.2 times of those in the midstream and downstream
respectively; at the sloping scale
the soil erosion rates were the highest in the middle slope locations
which were 1.3~2.6 and 2.8~12.2 times of those in the upper and lower slope locations
respectively. (2) At the watershed scale
the spatial distribution of soil organic matter and soil erosion rates showed an opposite trend and the contents of total nitrogen and available phosphorus in the downstream were both greater than those in the midstream; on the sloping scale
the contents of soil organic matter and available phosphorus as well as the activities of soil invertase
urease and alkaline phosphatase in the lower slope locations were all greater than those in the middle slope locations
indicating that soil erosion in farmland declined soil nutrient contents and enzyme activities. (3) The soil deposition rates in the deposition areas of the watershed had significant impacts on the contents of soil organic matter and available phosphorus as well as the activities of soil urease and alkaline phosphatase. (4) The contents of soil organic matter and available phosphorus had significant impacts on the activities of urease and alkaline phosphatase
indicating that the redistribution of soil nutrients caused by soil erosion-deposition was an important reason for the spatial differentiation of soil enzyme activities.
