文摘

PurposeSoil is composed of particles of different sizes. A fraction of soil particles with different sizes has many vital effects on soil properties such as soil texture, soil porosity, and soil nutrient content. We intended to explore what change took place in soil particle distribution along the chronosequence of restoration and to address what implication this change has for ecosystem restoration.
