soil nutrients and soil erosion degree in Changting County
Fujian Province
were investigated using quadrat methods.The differences of the biomass were evident in different slope directions.The total biomass for the quadrats on east slope was with the maximum of 1 967.65g/m2 and for the quadrats on south slope
with the minimum of 1 230.28g/m2.The coverage and height decreased with increased slope position.The total biomass
coverage and height were positively correlated with soil organic matter and total nitrogen.Soil erosion degree was significantly negatively correlated with the biomass
coverage and height.The Dicranopteris dichotoma growth was apparently influenced by soil erosion degree
soil organic matter and total nitrogen.Dicranopteris dichotoma plays some important roles in controlling soil and water loss and therefore
it can be used as pioneer vegetation in soil and water conservation and ecological restoration of the study area.
