英文摘要Soil erosion poses a major threat to the sustainability and stability of global terrestrial ecosystems. Mixed forests have more advantages in restoring degraded land and enhancing soil fertility than monocultures, but their influence on soil erosion remains uncertain. Therefore, we presented a meta-analysis consisting of 261 paired observations of mixed forests and the corresponding monocultures from 65 studies to evaluate the effect of tree diversity on soil erosion in China. The results showed that compared with monocultures, mixed forests significantly reduced the annual runoff and sediment yield by 17.4% and 23.6%, respectively. Tree-shrub mixtures showed more efficiency in reducing runoff (24.2%) and sediment yield (32.1%) than tree-tree mixtures. However, the positive effect of mixed forests on soil erosion control was significant > 20 years after stand establishment. Mixed forests showed the highest capacity to control soil erosion at slope angles of 16 degrees-25 degrees (runoff: 27.7%; sediment yield: 37.7%). In terms of soil textures, mixed forests performed better with respect to soil erosion control on sandy soils (runoff: 21.4%; sediment yield: 30.1%), whereas significant differences were not observed between different stand types on clayey soils. In addition, in the dry areas (humidity index (HI) < 30), mixed forests conferred the greatest benefits in reducing runoff and sediment yield (25.8% and 33.0%, respectively). Our results indicate that increasing tree species richness is a suitable approach to controlling soil erosion in China. This research provides a scientific basis for the management and sustainable development of forest ecosystems in the future.
