Different labile organic carbon of different particle sizes in aggregates play an important role in improving forest soil quality and dynamic balance
of carbon pool. In this study,Chunhua,Ansai,Suide,Shenmu,four regions were selected along with increasing gradient of rainfall and temperature from
south to north in the Loss Plateau,and the changes of the different labile organic carbon content of soil aggregates of different particle sizes in Robinia
pseudoacacia plantation and their influencing factors were studied systematically. In this study,three aggregate size fractions: silt and clay size particles
(<0.053 mm),microaggregates(0.25~0.053 mm) and macroaggregates(>0.25 mm) were separated by wet sieving and the content of lowly,medium
and highly labile organic carbon were measured by Leffory method. The result shows that ① the content of macroaggregates (>0.25 mm) in the four areas
decreased first and then increased from south to north,and the content of microaggregates (0.25~0.053 mm) gradually increased,and the content of clay
and silty (<0.053 mm) is increased first and then decreased. ②Among the three labile organic carbons,and the order is lowly labile>medium labile>
highly labile. Among the four simple areas,the lowly labile organic carbon content of clay and silty (<0.053 mm) ranged from 1.02 to 1.52 g·kg
-1
,and
the content of the medium labile organic carbon is 0.53~0.91 g·kg
-1
and the highly labile organic carbon content is 0.28~0.43 g·kg
-1
; while the lowly
labile organic carbon in microaggregates (0.25~0.053 mm) is 1.02~2.02 g·kg
-1
; the content of the medium labile organic crabon is 0.46~1.20 g·kg
-1
;
and the content of highly labile organic carbon in microaggregates is 0.31~0.85 g·kg
-1
; the content of lowly labile organic carbon in macroaggregates
(>0.25 mm) is 1.08~3.07 g·kg
-1
and the content of medium labile is 0.70~1.96 g·kg
-1
; the content of highly labile organic carbon in microaggregatesis 0.48~1.24 g·kg
-1
. ③The content of lowly,medium and highly labile organic in the three kinds of aggregates of Robinia pseudoacacia plantation on the
Loess Plateau was significantly related with mean annual temperature(MAT),mean annual precipitation (MAP),soil SOC,TN and water content. There
is a significant correlation,and under the same labile,the correlation between the content of the labile organic carbon and the MAT,MAP,soil TN,SOC
and water content increases with the increase of the soil aggregate size. The result of the study have important implications for understanding the spatial
characteristics of the organic carbon content of soil aggregates in the Loess Plateau,China.
