Abstract

Abstract:

The chlorophyll-a and growth of biological sand-fixing materials prepared with desert moss crust and sand-fixing materials added by attapulgite were investigated in order to assess the application effects of biological sand-fixing materials under different water and nutrient supply. The results suggested that the optimal mixture ratio of 1∶1 for cultural moss crust and sand-fixing material was determinate by chlorophyll-a， strength and thickness of biological sand-fixing materials inoculated on the sand surface. Attapulgite clay significantly improved the stronger strength， more chlorophyll-a and thickness of inoculated biological sand-fixing materials. Three methods of nutrient supply and interval water supply based on precipitation in arid region both could significantly promoted the thickness and enhanced the strength， 50% nutrient treatment was considered as the optimal nutrient supply method. The inoculating biological sand-fixing materials performed higher thickness and stronger strength under 1 day interval water supply. More shorter interval water supply and nutrient providing were beneficial to the survival and propagation of desert biological crusts.

Key words: biocrust, superabsorbent, attapulgite, sand-fixing material, chlorophyll-a
