英文摘要 | In recent years, decreased runoff and sediment, intensified storm surge and seawater intrusion, urbanization, petroleum exploration, and production, and other factors have gradually deteriorated the unique wetland ecosystem in the Yellow River Delta (YRD). Although previous studies have analyzed the relationships between vegetation and soil properties at different scales, few studies have documented quasi-circular vegetation patches (QVPs) in the YRD, which appear to exhibit faster succession rates that make them ideal for studies on the relationships between vegetation and soil properties. Therefore, this study investigated differences in soil physicochemical properties at 0-20 cm depths between QVPs and inter-QVP bare soil areas, among QVPs, and among plant species communities. Additionally, spatial variations in soil physicochemical properties were explored in south-north and west-east transects across and within QVPs. The results showed that soils beneath QVPs had significant fertility island effects associated with soil organic matter (SOM) and total nitrogen (TN). Furthermore, these areas were richer in clay content, showed slightly higher pH values, and exhibited less available phosphorus (APH), available potassium (APO), total salt content, and silt content than those of bare soil areas. A multiple independent samples nonparametric Kruskal-Wallis H test detected significant differences in SOM, TN, APH, and pH among 18 QVPs, but no significant differences were found in APO, total salt content, sand, silt, and clay contents. Regardless of plant species, different plant species communities had significant effects on soil physicochemical properties. Particularly, soils underneath plant species communities with Tamarix chinensis were richer in SOM and TN, and they contained less APH, APO, and total salt content than those without T. chinensis. In each QVP, values of SOM and TN in soil samples along the patch perimeter were less than those of samples located midway toward the perimeter, and these values were less than those of samples centered in the patch. However, APO and total salt content values exhibited opposite changes from the perimeter to the center of the patch. The results also indicated significant differences in SOM, TN, APH, APO, and pH between south-north transect A and west-east transect B across QVPs, but no significant differences were found in total salt content, sand, silt, and clay contents. Therefore, the results of this study indicate that QVPs have significant effects on topsoil nutrients and salinity but little effects on soil texture. Furthermore, the occurrence and development of QVPs are associated with suitable soil conditions, including higher clay fractions and lower total salt content values. |
