英文摘要 | As soil erosion is a major threat for global food security, soil and water conservation (SWC) structures are essential in degraded lands of the tropics facing water scarcity. However, some fundamental questions regarding the impact of SWC measures on soil aggregate stability, organic carbon (SOC) pools within bulk soils and aggregates, and biological activities remain unexplored. A 11-year study was conducted, involving a combination of tree (Emblica officinalis) + grass (Cenchrus ciliaris) + legume (Stylosanthes seabrana), comparing in-situ soil water storage measures, staggered contour trenches (SWC1), continuous contour trenches (SWC2), stone mulch (SWC3), and vegetative barriers (SWC4), to a control (SWC0). We calculated three novel indices: biological activity index (BAI), oxidative stability (OXS), and normalized soil stability index (NSSI). SWC1 and SWC2 reduced soil erosion by similar to 63% and 51% compared to SWC0. Labile C concentration improved by similar to 47, 31, and 15% for SWC1, SWC2, and SWC4 compared to SWCO. SWC1 and SWC2 had 50 and 33% greater recalcitrant C than SWC0, respectively, in the top layer. Considerably higher amount of aggregate associated C was observed with SWC1 and SWC2 than with SWC0. NSSI values of SWC1 and SWC2 were similar to 1.92- and 1.87-fold higher than that of SWC0 in the upper layer. BAI was improved by 1.34-2.65 times under SWC conditions compared to the control. For macroaggregates, OXS of C for SWC1 and SWC2 were similar to 12% higher than that for SWC0 at the surface. Overall, fruit and pasture yield under SWC1 were similar to 51 and 82% higher than SWC0, respectively. System water productivity was similar to 61% higher for SWC1 compared with SWC0. Therefore, staggered contour trenching or continuous contour trenching could be recommended for improving soil structural stability and SOC storage and for reducing soil erosion in degraded lands of semi-arid, dry, tropical regions. |
