Amid global desertification, this study investigates karst ecosystems; analyzing soil’s physiological and ecological properties within intricate fissure networks supporting plant root growth. This soil nutrients in three types of rocky network habitats Maolan, through field surveys experimental measurements. Significant variability was found across habitats. The quantities organic carbon, total nitrogen, available phosphorus, potassium were highest Type I soil, followed by III; lowest II. Total phosphorus III, intermediate I, II; while content moderate II, I. Based on nutrient participation C, N, P, K cycles, had the levels, III II levels; potassium-related III. ratios C/K, N/K, P/K, N/P C/N I; C/P A comprehensive evaluation ranked as best, moderate, worst. Key factors such average trace length, areal density, integration significantly influence impacting humus storage, growth space for roots Additionally, orientation fissures primarily impacts cycling, both angles lacunarity affect stoichiometric nutrients. Rocky habitat characterize quality. comparison existing studies reveals differences between non-karst regions. Effective restoration areas requires targeted strategies that consider specific attributes different enhances understanding forest ecosystems proposes new approaches combating desertification.
