Other claims from this paper (10)
- Association Plant diversity increased with elevation in the water-level fluctuation zone.
- Association Cynodon dactylon had significantly higher biomass than Xanthium strumarium.
- Observation Cynodon dactylon was a dominant species in the WLFZ based on high importance values.
- Observation Xanthium strumarium was a dominant species in the WLFZ based on high importance values.
- Intervention effect In the main stream, SOC storage was 23% higher in the middle-elevation zone than in the high-elevation zone.
- Intervention effect In the tributary, SOC storage in the high-elevation zone exceeded that in the middle-elevation zone by 38%.
- Association Soil total nitrogen and the C/N ratio were the primary factors controlling SOC storage, explaining 68.6% of the variance.
- Observation Plant effects on SOC storage were relatively weak.
- Observation X. strumarium contributed 34.84% to SOC storage at 165-175 m.
- Observation C. dactylon contributed 21.06% to SOC storage at 155-165 m.
