Abstract During the coal mining operation, accumulated soil in gangue hills often suffers from nutrient deficiencies, which can be overcome using fertilizer supplementation. The supplementation of exogenous nutrients has proven to an effective means enhancing physicochemical conditions these soils and promoting vegetation reestablishment. This study aimed investigate characteristics plant growth properties restoration a hill, focusing on artificially seeded grasslands high-altitude area as research subject. Over period three consecutive years, varying gradients nitrogen phosphorus supplements were applied hill. Furthermore, interrelationships between plants factors at different dosages chemical fertilization analyzed so determine appropriate level conducive ecological system's area. results this revealed significant responses ( P < 0.05) height, coverage, biomass dosage, leading increase availability 0.05). Apart moss dosage exhibited positive correlation with various characteristics, well highly availability. Notably, no differences > observed physical amendments. In conclusion, is beneficial for improving areas hills. recommended minimum 40g/m² urea combination 30g/m² diammonium phosphate. supplement should continuously. Considering capacity area's ecosystem self-repair costs restoration, it advisable utilize organic fertilizers sheep manure next phase restoration.

Severe soil erosion and land productivity degradation caused by inadequate vegetation cover pose significant challenges to regional ecological protection sustainable development. To assess changes variations in quality, three sample areas with different distinct texture characteristics were selected from the Pisha sandstone region located northeastern of Loess Plateau. The total data set (TDS) was determined through sampling experiments, minimum (MDS) established using principal component analysis. A Random Forest (RF) machine learning model applied predict quality distribution. prediction indices derived analysis dimensions, mean weight diameter measured via wet sieving, enrichment ratio obtained slope experiments conducted at corresponding points. During RF modeling process, 80% index (SQI), calculated TDS MDS evaluation methods, allocated for training. results indicated that pH, ammonia nitrogen, bulk density, silt content, clay water hygroscopic phosphorus, soluble calcium, actinomycetes identified as optimal predictors SQI. Furthermore, demonstrated superior performance predicting distribution SQI, metrics including (R2 = 0.76–0.78, RMSE 0.03–0.06, MAE 0.04–0.09). This study confirms reliability simulating SQI within area highlights that, regions undergoing extensive restoration limited conditions, experimental measurements particles sediment parameters provide an effective approach evaluating

The hydrological characteristics of gravel-containing soils are different from those gravel-free soils, so it is worth further understanding and enriching the theory soil water conservation. In this study, adjustable slope (10°, 20°, 30°) test boxes with surface gravel contents (0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%) were prepared to study runoff erosion gravel-covered land slopes under rainfall conditions (10 mm/h, 20 30 mm/h). Compared bare soil, start time three covered 100% content delayed by 38.90, 32.83 73.39%, producing rate condition decreased 7.20–71.52% total amount sediment yield 7.94~84.57%. Surface cover can effectively reduce yield, which beneficial for better results have a certain reference value conservation be used as basis guiding efficient agricultural production in gravel-mulched construction (like road improvement).

Red-soil sloping farmland in southern China plays a crucial role the local economy and food production. However, improper tillage practices have resulted topsoil degradation deteriorating soil quality. This study investigated changes physico-chemical properties under four methods—cross-slope ridge (RT), down-slope (DT), plastic mulching (PM), conventional (CT)—on red-soil farmland. The applied Soil Management Assessment Framework (SMAF) to assess influence of these on Results indicated that PM can increase total porosity soil, reduce bulk density, simultaneously decrease surface-water evaporation, significantly improving soil’s water-retention capacity. RT improved aggregate formation stability, leading increased macro-aggregate content, mean weight diameter, water-stable stability rates. effectively preserved nutrients like nitrogen organic matter, although lowered pH, potentially causing acidification. demonstrated highest quality, with following. Crop growth positively impacted content showing continuous improvement structure quality (p < 0.05). Priority should be given farmland, followed by CT, while avoiding DT if possible. research furnishes valuable scientific substantiation for selection optimal preservation slopes.
