  • Reclamation of coastal marshes to croplands shifts molecular composition of soil organic matter in the Bohai Rim

    Open AccessHaijing Xu, Yuanshan Zhu et al.ARTICLELand Degradation and Development2024

    Reclamation of coastal marshes to croplands lost massive reserves of soil organic matter (SOM). However, it is uncertain how reclamation shifts chemical composition of SOM and its size fractions. Here, we investigated this issue at two coastal marshes (Qilihai, degradation with seasonal waterlog; Beidagang, annual long‐term waterlog) along with adjacent long‐term reclaimed croplands on the coast of the Bohai Bay, China. Three SOM fractions: coars…

  • Soil properties and anthropogenic influences control the distribution of soil organic carbon in grasslands of northern China

    Open AccessXiaodong Zhang, Zhaoliang Song et al.ARTICLELand Degradation and Development2024

    Soil organic carbon (SOC) in grasslands not only plays an important role in carbon cycle but also largely affects soil function and thus determines grasslands' productivity. However, the influence mechanism of different factors on SOC storage in grasslands of northern China remains unclear. Based on an extensive field investigation and multiple statistical approaches, we mapped SOC of the grassland in northern China, and explored their correlatio…

  • Substrate quality overrides soil salinity in mediating microbial respiration in coastal wetlands

    Open AccessQiang Li, Zhaoliang Song et al.ARTICLELand Degradation and Development2023

    As productive and essential ecosystems, coastal wetlands have experienced increased environmental impacts such as saltwater intrusion and eutrophication, resulting in significant shifts in microbially mediated ecosystem functions, such as carbon sequestration and nutrient transformations. The soil microbial respiration, a primary process in the transfer of carbon from soil to the atmosphere, is susceptible to environmental changes. However, studi…

  • Effects of Si on N and P stoichiometry in degraded grassland of northern China

    Open AccessQian Hao, Zhaoliang Song et al.ARTICLELand Degradation and Development2022

    Ecological stoichiometry could provide scientific references for restoring degraded grassland. However, most of the research studies conducted on grasslands emphasise the main biogenic elements and ignore silicon (Si) changes, although Si has been considered to affect the nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) accumulation in plants. In this study, we aimed to explore the N, P and Si relationships in plants and soil in grasslands of different degradatio…

  • Soil organic matter turnover depending on land use change

    Open AccessShaopan Xia, Zhaoliang Song et al.ARTICLELand Degradation and Development2021

    Soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks have been greatly depleted across the globe by conversion of wetlands to croplands, agroforestry, and urban areas. Here, we investigated SOC distribution and turnover in four land use types: a wetland, cropland, forestland, and construction land in the Baiyangdian Wetland, Northern China. The C : N ratios were up to 1.70‐times larger in cropland, forestland, and construction land than in the original wetland becau…

  • Effects of manipulated precipitation on aboveground net primary productivity of grassland fields

    Open AccessXiaotian Xu, Hongyan Liu et al.ARTICLELand Degradation and Development2021

    Recovery from grassland degradation caused by climate change and human disturbance is critical to the sustainable development of drylands. Grassland in China accounts for 13% of the global grassland area, and more than half of it is still recovering from degradation. How climate change will contribute to the recovery of degraded grassland has not been clarified through field experiments. Here, we report the effects of manipulated precipitation re…

  • Conversion of coastal marshes to croplands decreases organic carbon but increases inorganic carbon in saline soils

    Open AccessYuanshan Zhu, Yidong Wang et al.ARTICLELand Degradation and Development2020

    Over the past century, conversion to agriculture has greatly reduced the global extent of coastal wetlands leading to degradation and loss of these ecosystems. However, it remains unclear how this land conversion affects the confluent soil organic and inorganic carbon (SOC and SIC) storage as well as their localizations in soil matrix. Here, we investigated these issues using wet sieving at two coastal saline–alkali sites in northern China. Conve…
