7.TECHNIQUES OF SOIL MOISTURE PRESERVATION IN THE PLUM AND POMEGRANATE ORCHARDS IN THE LOW HILL AREAS
9.Twelve evenly spaced soil profiles(10mx20m) were selected over a 32degree Chinese PinefPinus tabulaeformis) plantation forested hill-slope in Miyun Reservoir catchment for the study. Seventy-two undisturbed cores for soil water retention measurement and samples for root content and stoniness analysis were collected from those profiles at depths, with two replications each, 0-20cm, 20-40cm, and 40-60cm, respectively.
