Popis: Plastic film mulching and nitrogen (N) fertilization are two important field management practices used to increase crop yields in rain-fed agriculture in arid and semi-arid areas. These two practices, however, can have opposing effects on soil organic carbon (SOC) stock and turnover. To clarify and analyze the combined effects of these practices, we conducted a 7-year continuous maize cultivation experiment with four treatments: (1) no plastic film mulching without N fertilization (Control), (2) plastic film mulching without N fertilization (PFM), (3) N fertilization without plastic film mulching (N), and (4) plastic film mulching with N fertilization (PFM + N). The 13C natural abundance of in the light and heavy fractions of organic carbon (LFOC and HFOC) was used to differentiate “old” (>7 years) and “new” (
