Long‐term vegetation restoration increases carbon sequestration of different soil particles in a semi‐arid desert
Abstract Vegetation restoration in desert areas has an important influence on soil carbon sequestration. To understand the long‐term effects of vegetation restoration on soil particle composition and carbon sequestration of different soil particles in semi‐arid deserts, we collected the topsoil of d...

To understand the long‐term effects of vegetation restoration on soil particle composition and carbon sequestration of different soil particles in semi‐arid deserts, we collected the topsoil of different types of vegetation restored for different periods at the southeast margin of Mu Us Desert and analyzed the soil organic carbon (SOC) and soil inorganic carbon (SIC) contents in soil particles of different sizes.
