    Abstract:

    [Objective] This paper aimed to illustrate the spatial-temporal change of soil nutrients, enzyme activity and microbe quantity when mined area was reclaimed.[Methods] Through collecting samples at different depths in soil with different reclaimed age in Lujiang mined area, soil nutrients, enzyme activity and microbe quantity were measured and soil physical-chemical indexes were investigated.[Results] The statistical analysis revealed that as reclamation years increased, the soil pH value, soil bulk density and total porosity reduced gradually and the soil electrical conductivity, moisture content and total salt increased gradually. Meanwhile, the total potassium and effective potassium content reduced, and organic matter, total nitrogen, alkali-hydrolyzale nitrogen, microbial biomass carbon and nitrogen increased gradually, while P had no obvious trend. Microbial biomass was most sensitive to mine reclamation with the largest variation. Soil urease, sucrase, dehydrogenase, alkaline phosphatase activity and microbe quantity increased with the increasing of reclamation years. In the mine soil, bacteria were predominant(more than 99.3% in amount), actinomyces ranked next, and fungi amount was the least among the three communities of soil microbes. With the increasing of depth, soil nutrients, enzyme activity and microbe quantity declined gradually, which implied that they had the "surface accumulation". At the same soil layer with different reclamation years, soil nutrients, enzyme activity and microbe quantity largely ranked as:60 a>40 a>20 a>5 a, though local fluctuation existed.[Conclusion] Mine reclamation could improve soil quality and soil fertility, and the soil microbial metabolism. The later could influence the soil nutrient and enzyme activity in the mine soil, which suggested that all the factors in soil system were in a dynamic change and in balance. They have two traits, one of the trait is that they interacte and influence each other as a combined unity, and the other one is that they behaved dynamically balanced. The two traits imply that have the uniformity and synchronicity in soil.
