Characteristics of Soil Active Carbon Fractions and Carbon Pool Stability in Major Forest Types in Northern Daxing’an Mountains by LIU Beibei, CAI Tijiu

“…[Results] (1) From May to September, soil total organic carbon (TOC), highly active organic carbon (LOC-H) and moderately active organic carbon (LOC-M) of the four forest types showed a “single-peak” trend of change, and reached a peak in August, and the contents were higher in broad-leaved forests than in coniferous forests. (2) The utilisation rate of soil stability organic carbon (ER4) fluctuated between 72.33% and 85.11% from May to September, it was significantly higher than the utilisation rates of the other three types of active carbon, and dominated the soil carbon pool. (3) Soil carbon pool activity (CPA) fluctuated between 0.20 and 0.38, with P. davidiana forests>B. platyphylla forests>P. sylvestris var. mongolica forests >L. gmelinii forests; that of coniferous forests peaked in August, while that of broad-leaved forests were highest in May. (4) Soil active organic carbon content and carbon pool stability were subject to the combined effects of climatic factors and soil factors. Sucrase was the main influence of soil factors, while rainfall and photosynthetically active radiation were more influential among climatic factors. …”
