摘要: Gravel and sand mulching is an indigenous technology that has been used for increasing soil temperature and improving crop yield and water use efficiency for at least 300 years in northwestern China. However, long-term application of inorganic fertilizer with gravel and sand mulch could decrease the soil organic carbon content, and how to improve soil fertility under gravel and sand mulching remains largely unknown. Thus, we evaluated the effects of the application of inorganic (chemical) and organic (manure) fertilizers on the distribution of soil aggregates and their associated organic carbon in a field mulched with gravel and sand. A 5-year (2014-2018) field experiment was conducted in the arid region of northwestern China. Total organic carbon (TOC), permanganate oxidizable carbon (POC), TOC reserves in soil aggregates with different particle sizes, and watermelon (Citrullus lanatus) productivity in gravel-mulched fields were analysed for the following six fertilization modes: no N fertilizer input as a control (CK), N fertilizer without organic fertilizer (CF), and organic fertilizer replacing 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% of mineral nitrogen (recorded as OF-25%, OF-50%, OF-75% and OF-100%, respectively). The results showed that, higher manure to nitrogen fertilizer ratios were positively correlated with the percentage of soil macroaggregates (> 0.25 mm), mean weight diameter (MWD), TOC and POC concentrations, and their ratios in different particle sizes. Compared with CF, the treatments with 50% to 100% organic fertilizer significantly increased TOC storage (5.91-7.84%) in the soil profile (0-20 cm). Moreover, the CF treatment did not increase SOC concentrations or TOC storage, compared with CK. The fruit yield (2014-2018) of watermelon significantly increased by an average of 31.38% to 45.70% in the treatments with 50% to 100% organic fertilizer, respectively, compared with CF. Our results suggest that the partial replacement of chemical fertilizer with organic manure (OF-50%, OF-75% and OF-100%) could increase the proportion of macroaggregates, POC and TOC concentrations, and TOC stock in aggregates with different particle size and improve the yield of watermelon in the gravel fields of arid northwestern China mulched with gravel and sand.
