Abstract  The land surface vegetation coverage, soil particle size and organic carbon content in the typical steppe under overgrazing, cultivation and exclosure were investigated in Inner Mongolia and the influences of human activity on grassland soil erosion was analyzed. The results were as follows. Compared to enclosed grassland, the vegetation coverage, height and root biomass of overgrazing grassland decreased by 44.23%, 80.71% and 37.83% respectively. Due to the decline of vegetation coverage and root density, the soil of overgrazing grassland demonstrated a significant wind erosion. Overgrazing resulted in the increase of sand content in the surface soil and about 100% increase of the mean soil particle size. Furthermore, cultivation had led to serious soil wind erosion and 2.5 times increase in mean particle size. The overgrazed and cultivated grassland had become an important source of sand dust. The coarsening of soil particle directly aroused the decline of soil organic carbon content, and when 1 percent of soil particle content below 0.1 mm was blown away by wind, organic carbon content in soil reduced 0.2546 g·kg-1.
Key words:  overgrazing      cultivation      exclosure      wind erosion
