The objectives of this study were to explore the changes in soil stoichiometry and enzyme activities at different distances from an opencast coal mine in the Hulun Buir Grassland of China.Four transects were established on north and east sides of the opencast coal mining area,and samples were collected at 50 m,550 m,and 1550 m from the pit on each transect.Control samples were collected from a grassland station 8 km from the opencast coal mining area that was not disturbed by mining.Four replicate soil samples were collected at each point on the four transects.Soil physicochemical properties and enzyme activities were determined,and correlations between soil properties and stoichiometric ratios and enzyme activities were explored using redundancy analysis.The increase in distance from mining did not significantly affect soil properties,although soil urease activity was significantly lower than that of the control area.Soil properties 1550 m from the mine pit were similar to those at the grassland control.In addition,soil total nitrogen had the greatest effect on soil stoichiometry,and soil total potassium had the greatest effect on soil enzyme activities.Coal dust from opencast mining might be the main factor affecting soil stoichiometry and enzyme activities.The results of this study provide direction for the next step in studying the influence of mining areas on soil properties and processes.
