Abstract

Abstract:

Desert-oasis transition area has the most frequent landscape changes in arid area. It is very important to deeply understand the differences of soil environment under different landscapes in desert-oasis transition area in order to reveal the ecosystem processes in arid area. By collecting soil samples from different landscapes （i.e.， desert， transition zone and oasis） in Shiyang River Basin， and comprehensively using a variety of analysis methods， this study investigated the heterogeneity and their interactions of soil physical and chemical properties. The results demonstrated that soil texture and water holding capacity improved from desert， transition zone to oasis landscapes while the value of pH and salinity had little change. The landscapes of desert and transition zone had nearly the same organic carbon and total nitrogen contents， and the oasis landscapes had significantly increased organic carbon， total nitrogen， and total phosphorus contents. At different depths， the soil physical and chemical properties in desert landscape had little change. However， the soil texture in the transition zone landscape improved from surface to deep layer， the water content increased layer by layer， the total phosphorus content increased slowly， and the values of C∶N and C∶P decreased irregularly. From surface to deep layer， the soil water content in oasis landscape increased significantly， the nutrients decreased significantly， and the values of C∶N and C∶P decreased significantly. In general， desert landscape had the smallest heterogeneity degree of soil physical and chemical properties， while oasis landscape had the largest one. As for the transition zone landscape， it had larger heterogeneity in soil texture and water content， and had smaller heterogeneity in soil nutrients. In addition， the transition zone landscape obtained the highest autocorrelation degree of soil physical and chemical properties， and soil texture was the main reason for the heterogeneity of other soil physical and chemical properties.

Key words: desert-oasis transition area, landscape pattern, soil texture, moisture content, soil nutrient
