Understanding regional spatial pattern of soil organic carbon density (SOCD) and its potential influencing factors in cropland is of paramount importance when evaluating soil quality and assess the carbon sequestration potential. However, little information is available regarding the regional SOCD for the plough layer of the cropland soils with high‐density sampling sites. In this context, 14,058...
Soil water content (SWC) measurements for deep soil profiles involve large and expensive expenditures of time and labor. However, understanding of soil water dynamics for deep soil profiles is very important for soil and water resource management and hydrological modeling. This study was aimed at (1) testing whether the mean SWC for the deep profile of a hillslope could be well estimated using the...
Black locust (Robinia pseudoacacia) has been extensively planted on the Loess Plateau for soil and water conservation, but afforestation with this non-native tree has produced some negative effects such as soil desiccation. Knowledge of the soil water storage (SWS) within soil profiles in black locust stands is thus critical for optimization of forest management for sustainable production. The objectives...
Extensive vegetation restoration practices have been implemented to control soil erosion on the Loess Plateau, China. However, no strict guidelines are available to determine the most suitable plant species for vegetation restoration within a given area. The objective of this study was to quantify the changes of each component (soil water storage, surface runoff, and actual evapotranspiration) of...
Soil water storage is a critical variable controlling hydrological and biological processes. The precise estimation of soil water storage in diverse soil layers is fundamental to understanding hydro-biological processes and efficiently managing water resources. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effects of topography (elevation) and soil properties (clay, silt, sand content, median...
