- Abstract:
-
Soil microbial biomass and enzymatic activities were studied in soils of Guyuan Loess hills of Ningxia Province under natural grassland to understand the slope position by analyzing the soil microbial biomass and enzymatic activities between relationship, further understands its inner link. The results indicated that in the three positions of the topography (up slope position, the middle slope position and down slope position), soil microbial biomass carbon (Cmic) reduced with the slope position down; soil microbial nitrogen (Nmic) were higher in the up slope position and down slope position and lower in the middle slope position; soil microbial phosphorus (Pmic) were higher in the middle slope position and down slope position and lower in the up slope position. Soil enzymatic activities do not change with the position. Significant analysis shows that Cmic and enzymatic activities was not significantly different, Nmic is significantly different under the up slope position and down slope position (P<0.05,n=3), and Pmic is significantly different under the middle slope position and down slope position(P<0.05,n=3).
