Abstract

Land accretion process of Lingang New Town，which is located southeast of Shanghai，has been formed for about 60 years. The deposition and sediments are affected by the water profiles of the Yangtze River and Hangzhou Gulf. The land reclamation activities such as embank construction in this region severely affect soil properties and distribution of plant communities. The relationship between the number of species and soil properties were investigated. The investigation recorded all together 66 species，64 genera，26 families for the four embank regions. The results show a positive correlation between the number of species and pH value of saline soils，but negative correlation between the number of species and electric conductivity（EC） of saline soils. Organic matter of soils and increasing salinity in October had a positive and a negative relationship with plant species significantly（P＜0.05），respectively. The main reasons of plant distributing were diversity of soil organic and salinity. Our investigations provide a basic data set of Lingang New Town for better understanding of coastal processes and promote the planning reclamation work in this area. ［Ch，2 fig. 3 tab. 15 ref.］
