Introduction: The impact of groundwater table depth (GTD) on bacterial communities and soil nutrition in revegetated areas remains unclear.
Methods: We investigated the impacts of plant growth and soil physicochemical factors on rhizosphere bacterial communities under different GTD.
Results: The four plant growth indices (Pielou, Margalef, Simpson, and Shannon-Wiener indices) and soil water content (SWC) at the Artem and Salix sites all showed a decreasing trend with increasing GTD.
Clarifying the dependence of the grassland water budget change and its components on environmental factors is significant for the sustainable development of dryland ecosystems. Here, the Hydrus-1D model was used to simulate the water budget of natural grassland for 42 years (1980-2021). The standardized precipitation evapotranspiration index (SPEI) and soil moisture deficit index (SMDI) were used to analyze the soil drought evolution characteristics and the water use dynamic of the grassland in dry and wet years.
