Abstract:Abstract:The forests of Pinus massoniana on three kinds of different disturbance intensity were selected in Zigui county. The soil organic carbon (SOC) storage characteristic was analyzed, and the relationship between soil carbon storage with mean diameter at breast height (DBH), forest density and canopy density was studied. The result showed that total SOC storage of three forest types in 0~60 cm layer was 103.42,70.26 t·hm-2and 54.81 t·hm-2 respectively, and the SOC storage in light disturbance forest was 47.20% percent and 88.68% percent higher than it of middle disturbance forest and serious disturbance forest, and the difference of SOC storage among three forest types was significant (P<0.05). A positive significant correlation was found between total SOC storage and mean DBH, canopy density(P<0.05), while the total SOC storage was not correlated with forest density(P≥0.05).
