外文摘要：Saline-alkali land is an important cultivated land reserve resource for tackling global climate change and ensuring food security,partly because it can store large amounts of carbon(C).However,it is unclear how saline-alkali land reclamation(converting saline-alkali land into cultivated land)affects soil C storage.We collected 189 adjacent pairs of salt-affected and cultivated soil samples(0-30 cm deep)from the Songnen Plain,eastern coastal area,Hetao Plain,and northwestern arid area in China.Various soil prop-erties,the soil inorganic C(SIC),organic C(SOC),particulate organic C(POC),and mineral-associated organic C(MAOC)densities,and plant-and microbial-derived C accumulation were determined.Saline-alkali land reclamation inconsistently affected the SIC density but significantly(P＜0.001)increased the SOC density.The SOC,POC,and MAOC densities were predicted well by the integrative soil amelioration index.Saline-alkali land reclamation significantly increased plant-derived C accumulation and the plant-derived C to microbial-derived C ratios in all saline-alkali areas,and less microbial trans-formation of plant-derived C(i.e.,less lignin degradation or oxidation)occurred in cultivated soils than salt-affected soils.The results indicated that saline-alkali land reclamation leads to plant-derived C becoming the dominant contributor of SOC storage.POC storage and MAOC storage were strongly linked to plant-and microbial-derived C accumulation,respectively,caused by saline-alkali land reclamation.Our findings suggest that saline-alkali land reclamation increases C storage in topsoil by preferentially promoting plant-derived C accumulation.
