Nutrients and litter decomposition in Vatica mangachapoi forest versus Casuarina equisetifolia plantation

    Corresponding author: LIU Qiang

Abstract: The aim of this study was to provide a scientific basis for constructing a mixed forest of Vatica mangachapoi and Casuarina equisetifolia . Comparative biogeochemical and litter decomposition studies were conducted in similar environmental conditions on Shimeiwan Coast in Wanning City,Hainan Island. Results showed that (1) the concentration of N in leaf and branch compartments of V. mangachapoi forest was significantly higher(Pleaf = 0.008,Pbranch<0.001)than that of C. equisetifolia plantation;the concentration of phosphorus in leaf,branch and root compartments of V. mangachapoi forest was significantly higher(Pleaf =0.030,Pbranch< 0.001,Proot = 0.021) than that of C. equisetifolia plantation;the concentration of K in leaf,branch and root compartments of V. mangachapoi forest was significantly higher(Pleaf< 0.001,Pbranch<0.001,Proot<0.001) than that of C. equisetifolia plantation. (2)In the soil,N and K of the V. mangachapoi forest was significantly higher(PN<0.001,PK = 0.028) than that of the C. equisetifolia plantation,but phosphorus was not significantly different. (3) Concentrations of N,P,and K in all compartments of both forest and plantation changed with the season,except for the concentration of N and P in soil compartments. Finally,(4)the turnovers of V. mangachapoi litter and C. equisetifolia litter were 3.52 and 1.83 years respectively under V. mangachapoi forest,whereas they were 3.53 and 3.45 years respectively under C. equisetifolia plantation. Thus,the V. mangachapoi forests had a stronger N,P,and K accumulation capability than the C. equisetifolia plantation,and the microenvironment under V. mangachapoi was more conductive to litter decomposition.[Ch,2 fig. 2 tab. 33 ref.]
