English Abstract

The Yellow River Delta is one of the most active regions of land - ocean interaction among the large river deltas
in the world. However, the wetlands in Yellow River Delta have been suffering from soil salinity and increasing
degradation, because of the coastal erosion and drying up of the Yellow River. Therefore, it’s essential to develop efficient
eco-remediation methods on heavily degraded coastal saline-alkaline wetlands to protect wetlands resources. To study the
ecological effects of Suaeda salsa on repairing heavily degraded coastal saline-alkaline wetlands, ploughing ( PG ) ,
fertilization ( FG) and reed debris ( RD) were used for soil eco-remediation. The saline-alkaline soil eco-remediation effects
were investigated by periodic measurements of such variables as soil salt content, Na + , soil urease, phosphatase, soil
nutrient components and biomass, density and yield of Suaeda salsa plant. The dynamic changes of different index and the
differences of three eco-remediation methods were discussed. The results showed that the Suaeda salsa plant could grow well
after the soil eco-remediation on heavily degraded coastal saline-alkaline wetlands. All three eco-remediation methods could
decrease the soil salt content efficiently. The Na + content in the eco-remediated soil was significantly lower than in control
soil. Among three methods, the Na + content in RD was significantly lower than in other two groups. The activity of soil urease and phosphatase in eco-remediation groups were higher than control, which indicated that the soil fertility was
significantly improved. Compared with three methods, the activity of soil urease and phosphatase in RD was the highest.
The contents of total N in PG, FG and RD were increased 30. 9% , 31. 7% and 28. 6% respectively, and the content of
total organic C, available P and K did not rise significantly. Plant biomass is one of the most important indicator evaluating
the plant growth condition. Compared with three methods, the density of Suaeda salsa plant was FG < PG < RD, and the
biomass of Suaeda salsa plant was PG < FG < RD. The results together indicated that organic matter adding is an effective
way for soil eco-remediation in heavily degraded coastal saline-alkaline wetlands
