[Characteristics and Influencing Factors of Soil Particulate and Mineral-associated Organic Carbon in Cropland Soil across Sichuan Basin].

Exploring the composition of regional soil organic carbon （SOC） components and identifying their influencing factors are of utmost importance to deeply understand the potential mechanisms of SOC change in cropland soil. Based on data from 871 soil sampling points, this study explored the characteristics of soil particulate and mineral-associated organic carbon （POC and MAOC） in the surface soil of cropland and the relationships with climate, terrain, soil texture, agricultural land-use type, and fertilization across the Sichuan basin using analysis of variance, correlation analysis, and a random forest model. The results showed that the average content of POC and MAOC in the surface soil of cropland was 5.

[Impact of Climate Warming on Paddy Soil Organic Carbon Change in the Sichuan Basin of China].

Climate warming can increase soil temperature and lead to soil carbon release, but it can also increase soil organic carbon by increasing primary productivity. Cropland soils are considered to have a huge potential to sequester carbon; however, direct observations for the responses of cropland soil organic carbon to climate warming over broad geographic scales are rarely documented. Paddy soil is one of the important cultivated soils in China.

[Analysis of Spatial Distribution and Influencing Factors of Nitrogen and Phosphorus Fertilizer Application Intensity in Chengdu Plain].

The spatial distribution of fertilization intensity and its influencing factors are significant for the accurate management of fertilization and pollution prevention and control. Previous studies are mostly limited to the discussion of human factors that influences the spatial distribution of fertilization intensity while ignoring natural geographical factors. Based on the chemical fertilizer survey data collected from 23492 sites in Chengdu Plain and combined with Geostatistics analysis and Geographic Information System (GIS) technology, the spatial distribution characteristics and influencing factors of average nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizer application intensity from 2010 to 2015 in this region were explored.

[Effects of different land use patterns on soil potassium distribution in Chengdu Plain, China].

To explore the effects of land use change on the potassium in soil profile under the background of rapid urbanization, we collected data of 187 soil profiles from four typical land use patterns (rice-wheat, rice-vegetable, rice-oil and garden) in Chengdu Plain. The contents of available potassium (AP), slow-acting potassium (SP), mineral potassium (MP), and total potassium (TP) in soil profile under different land use patterns and their relationships were analyzed. Our results showed that compared with the traditional rotation (rice-wheat, rice-oil), soil AP and SP contents significantly varied among different land use patterns.

[Profile Distribution of Paddy Soil Organic Carbon and Its Influencing Factors in Chengdu Plain].

Understanding the effects of environmental factors on the profile distribution of soil organic carbon (SOC) is a base to accurately modeling the continuous change of SOC in vertical and three-dimensional spatial distributions, as well as precisely estimating SOC storage. Based on 171 soil profiles collected from Chengdu Plain, the effects of environmental factors (including the parent material, soil type, elevation, distance from river, and land use) on the profile distribution of paddy SOC to a depth of 1 m were evaluated through the exponential decay function. The results indicated that SOC was estimated at 19.

[Spatial variability of soil nitrogen and related affecting factors at a county scale in hilly area of Mid-Sichuan Basin].

Spatial distribution characteristics of soil total nitrogen ( TN ) and available nitrogen ( AN ) were analyzed by using geostatistical methods and the effects of the influencing factors were quantified by regression analysis based on 555 soil samples collected in RenShou county. The results showed that the contents of soil TN ranged from 0.34-2.

[Spatial variability of soil C/N ratio and its influence factors at a county scale in hilly area of Mid-Sichuan Basin, Southwest China].

Spatial distribution characteristics of soil C/N ratio and its affecting factors at a county scale in hilly area of Middle Sichuan Basin were analyzed based on field sampling. Result indicated that soil C/N ranged from 4.84 to 21.

[Clinical effect of modified Xuefuzhuyutang on senile chronic subdural hematoma after operation].

Objective: To investigate the curative effect of modified Xuefuzhuyutang on chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH)after burr holes irrigation and drainage.

Methods: From January 2010 to April 2013,137 CSDH patients were randomly divided into two groups: 65 cases of control group and 72 cases of medicine group (modified Xuefuzhuyutang).

Results: Compared with the control group, the cases of total absorption of hematoma in medicine group increased significantly (P < 0.

[Prediction of soil nutrients spatial distribution based on neural network model combined with goestatistics].

In this study, a radial basis function neural network model combined with ordinary kriging (RBFNN_OK) was adopted to predict the spatial distribution of soil nutrients (organic matter and total N) in a typical hilly region of Sichuan Basin, Southwest China, and the performance of this method was compared with that of ordinary kriging (OK) and regression kriging (RK). All the three methods produced the similar soil nutrient maps. However, as compared with those obtained by multiple linear regression model, the correlation coefficients between the measured values and the predicted values of soil organic matter and total N obtained by neural network model increased by 12.

Relationship between species diversity and ecotope diversity.

The relationship between species diversity and ecotope diversity has long been debated. But these debates seem meaningless because most of them were based on different definitions. In this paper, diversity has two components: richness based on the total number and evenness based on the relative abundance.
