[0111] Note: AR / AL = (aromatic-C + phenol-C) / (C-alkyl + N-alkyl / methyl-C + O-alkyl + O2-alkyl + carboxyl / amide); fa% = aromatic-C + phenol-C.
[0112] From Table 1 and Figures 1 to 4 It can be seen that the aromatic content (fa%) and the ratio of aromatic to aliphatic (AR / AL) of the three soils are in the order of grassland > forest > wetland. After the influence of cow dung, the aromatic content (fa%) and the ratio of aromatic to aliphatic (AR / AL) of grassland and forest soils decreased significantly, while there was no change in wetland soil. Specifically, the percentage of aromatic carbon (110-145 ppm) in forest and grassland soils decreased with the application of manure, while it remained basically unchanged in wetland soil.
[0113] Figure 5Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance (FT-ICR / MS) Van Krevelen diagram, (a) wetland, (b) wetland + cow dung, (c) grassland, (d) grassland + cow dung, (e) forest, (f) forest + cow dung. Figure 5 It can be seen that compared with the control (e), the variables of condensed aromatic hydrocarbons in the forest soil (f) with cow dung added were greatly reduced; unsaturated hydrocarbons with low oxidation state (O / C: 0-0.1) also decreased in grassland (d) and forest soil (f), especially CHON and CHONS, which decreased more, indicating that the stability of the soil with cow dung added was reduced. Lignin and tannin are the two major polyphenolic substances that constitute phenolic carbon. The content of grassland (d) and forest soil (f) with cow dung added also decreased, indicating that the stability of the soil with cow dung added was reduced.
[0114] Figure 6 The nominal oxidation state of carbon (NOSC) DBE of Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance (FT-ICR / MS): double bond equivalent, (a) wetland, (b) wetland + cow dung, (c) grassland, (d) grassland + cow dung, (e) forest, (f) forest + cow dung. Figure 6 It can be seen that with the decrease of aromatic carbon and unsaturated carbon, the overall NOSC of the forest soil (f) with the addition of cow dung increased significantly, the total percentage of NOSC>0 increased from 23% to 31%, and the variable proportion of NOSC<0 decreased from 71% to 61%, indicating that the addition of cow dung has improved the decomposition potential of organic carbon; and the increase in NOSC indicates a higher degree of oxidation. An increase in NOSC usually means that organic matter is more easily metabolized and decomposed by microorganisms, which may lead to a decrease in the stability of soil organic carbon.
[0115] Combination Figures 1 to 6 As shown in Table 1, in grasslands and forests, the addition of manure changed the composition of soil organic carbon, reduced aromaticity (aromatic carbon and phenolic carbon), and increased the nominal oxidation state of carbon (NOSC), while little effect was observed in wetlands. The stability of organic carbon mainly depends on the content of phenolic carbon and aromatic carbon. On the one hand, phenolic carbon can reduce the activity of hydrolases and protect the soil from decomposition. On the other hand, due to its ring structure and high bond energy, aromatic carbon is relatively difficult to decompose and is considered to be a stable organic carbon in the soil. The reduction in aromaticity may indicate that peat soils have lower stability. The differences in soil responses to the addition of manure in different land types are related to water content, plant input, dominant bacteria, and SOC chemical composition. Compared with grasslands and forests, organic carbon in wetlands basically shows a stronger resistance to degradation, so soil organic carbon in wetlands is more stable.
