[Objective]The factors influencing the soil carbon and nitrogen content of unchanged grazed grassland and cultivated land in the Qinghai Lake area for the past 30 years were thoroughly investigated, with a view to providing reference for optimal land use management in the area. [Methods] Further analysis of the dominant factors of soil carbon and nitrogen contents was carried out by using univariate and multiple regression models. [Results] The soil physicochemical indexes of grassland and cultivated land changed obviously with 30 cm soil depth as the boundary. It can be seen from the regression model that soil carbon and nitrogen contents in cultivated land are less affected by soil physical and chemical indexes due to the influence of human activities, while grassland soil, as an undisturbed soil, has significantly more dominant factors on soil carbon and nitrogen than those of the cultivated land under the natural development background. [Conclusion] Land use change significantly affects soil properties, and reducing land disturbance in the area can effectively slow down the process of land desertification.
