Hydrological Effects of Litters and Soils in Carya Cathayensis Forest with Different Managing Time
In order to investigate the effect of changes of forest type converted from chinese hickory(Carya cathayensis Sarg.)-evergreen broad-leaved mixed forest to pure C. cathayensis forest on litter and soil hydrological characteristics
we studied the difference of the water conservation abilities between C. cathayensis broad-leaved mixed forest and pure C. cathayensis forest in 0
5
10 and 20 a by using comparative sampling adjacent plots method. Results showed that woodland litter water-holding capacity
absorption rate and soaking time relations were in line logarithmic and exponential functions. The 0 a woodland litter accumulation
maximum water-holding capacity and effective interception amount were significantly higher than 5
10
20 a C. cathayensis woodlands. As the extension of managing time
the woodland litter accumulation
maximum water-holding capacity and effective interception amount showed a downward trend. Compared with 0 a woodland
others decreased by 38.2%~54.6%
58.1%~69.7% and 21.0%~33.2%. The differences of the soil bulk density
non-capillary porosity
capillary porosity
total capillary porosity and water holding capacity and other indicators in different managing histories of C. cathayensis forest were not significant. Compared with the water-holding capacity (21 450.0 t/hm2) of 0 a woodland soil
through different years of management
the water-holding capacity decreased from 10.6% to 20.4%. All of these indicate that the forest litter and soil hydrological effects were reduced after the C. cathayensis evergreen broad-leaved mixed forest was converted to pure C. cathayensis forest.
