Vegetation restoration can effectively enhance soil quality and soil organic carbon(SOC)sequestration.In this study,the distribution characteristics of soil nutrients and SOC along soil profile(0-100 cm),and their responses to restoration years(16,28,38 years)were studied in Caragana korshinskii plantations in the southern mountainous area of Ningxia,compared with cropland and natural grassland.The results showed that:1)the con-tents of SOC,soil total nitrogen(TN),total phosphorus(TP),particulate organic carbon(POC),mineral-asso-ciated organic carbon(MAOC)and the proportion of particulate organic carbon to total organic carbon(POC/SOC)all decreased with increasing soil depth.The ratio of mineral-associated organic carbon to total organic carbon(MAOC/SOC)exhibited an opposite trend.2)The contents of SOC,TN,TP,C∶P,N∶P,POC and MAOC gra-dually decreased as the restoration years increased.However,the C∶N ratio showed no significant change.The POC/SOC ratio initially increased and then decreased,while the MAOC/SOC ratio decreased initially and then increased.3)In three different types of vegetation,POC,MAOC,and SOC showed a highly significant positive linear correlation,with the increase in SOC mainly depended on the increase in MAOC.The SOC,TN,TP,POC and MAOC contents in natural grassland and C.korshinskii plantations were significantly higher than those in crop-land.In conclusion,soil nutrients and POC and MAOC contents of C.korshinskii plantations gradually decreased with the increases in restoration years.However,when compared with cropland,natural grassland and C.korshinskii plantations demonstrated a greater capacity to maintain and enhance soil nutrient and carbon storage.
