Saturated Hydraulic Conductivity of Different Land Use Types in Simian Mountain of Chongqing City
[Objective] The research focuses on the effect of the different land use types and soil physicochemical properties on saturated hydraulic conductivity.[Methods] The constant-hydraulic head method was used to measure soil saturated hydraulic conductivity(Ks) for different land use types in Simian Mountain of Chongqing City. Regression analysis
correlation analysis and principle component analysis was used to analyze the relationship between Ks and soil physical factors and organic matter.[Results] The Ks was the lowest in wasteland
and the descending order was:forest land > farmland> grassland. The Ks in natural forest was higher than that in artificial forest
and it was negative exponential declined with the increase of the soil depth. There was a power function relationship between Ks and unit weight
and Ks was positively related to soil porosity and negatively related to clay content. The increase of organic matter could improve the Ks.[Conclusion] The unit weight
organic matter
non capillary poropsity and capillary poropsity are the main factors that influence Ks. Besides
soil mechanical composition also has some impact on Ks.
