38±1.97)‰. Forest soil had the highest C/N of 16.66±7.18, while paddy soil had the lowest C/N of 11.95±0.92. The results of the Bayesian stable isotope mixture model showed that the contribution rates of forest land, paddy fields and vegetable fields to the organic matter deposited at the outlet in the watershed were 19.6%, 15.7%, and 64.7%, respectively. Paddy filed and vegetable field had a combined contribution rate of 80.4%. It was concluded that, soils of agricultural land were the main sources of organic matter deposited in the Nanyue small watershed, and that nutrient loss in the watershed would be effectively controlled by optimizing farmland management.Gaseous nitrogen (N) emission [nitric oxide (NO), nitrous oxide (N2O), and nitrogen (N2)] is an important pathway of soil N loss. Nitrification and denitrification are the main processes of gaseous N production in soil. However, the contribution of heterotrophic nitrification, co-denitrification, and anammox to gaseous N production remains uncertain. In a laboratory soil incubation experiment, we used the 15N labelling and pairing technique, combining the nitrification inhibitor dicyandiamide (DCD), to quantify the contribution of different microbial processes to soil NO, N2O and N2 production under anaerobic conditions. The results showed that after 24 h anaerobic incubation, the highest total 15N recovery of three gases occurred at 65% water filled pore space (WFPS), accounting for 20.0% of total added 15N. Denitrification contributed 49.9%-94.1%, 29.0%-84.7%, and 58.2%-85.8% to the production of NO, N2O and N2 respectively, suggesting that denitrification was the predominant process of those three N gases emission. Heterotrophic nitrification was an important pathway of NO and N2O production, particularly at conditions with low soil water content (10% WFPS), with its contribution to those two N gases production being 50.1% and 42.8%, respectively. Co-denitrification contributed 10.6%-30.7% of N2O production. For N2 production, the total contribution of co-denitrification and anammox was 14.2%-41.8%. The role of co-denitrification can not be ignored for N2O and N2 production. Our results demonstrated that the 15N labelling and pairing technique is a promising tool to quantify the contribution of different microbial processes to gaseous N loss.We examined the characteristics of water use in typical tree species of arbor and shrub in Hunshandake Sandy Land, Populus cathayana and Salix gordejevii, in the different seasons, with the aim to provide theoretical basis for the structural optimization of the artificial shelterbelt. Samples of precipitation, soil water, groundwater and stem water of the two vegetation were collected, and their distribution characteristics of δD-δ18O were analyzed by hydrogen and oxygen stable isotope technology. The contribution rate of these potential water source to the arbor and shrub species were calculated using multi-source linear mixing model. The precipitation equation line in the study area was δD=7.84δ18O+9.12, while soil moisture lines in the dry and wet season were δD=3.56δ18O-41.28 and δD=4.30δ18O-42.02, respectively. The δD-δ18O of soil water and stem water in the two seasons were lower than the precipitation δD-δ18O, indicating that both of them were strongly affected by the evaporation. Soil water contents i in Hunshandake Sandy Land. We proposed that the mixed planting species with different root depth should be considered in the future planting of artificial shelterbelt, which would help rationally utilize water resources and maintain the stability of sandy land ecosystem.To fully understand the changes in the evapotranspiration components in forest ecosystem and their contribution to evapotranspiration at daily scale, we used the hypothesis theory of isotopic steady state and non-steady state combined with the water isotope analyzer system to quantitatively split and compare the evapotranspiration components of Platycladus orientalis ecosystem during the growing season. Results showed that the 18O of water from different sources during the four mea-surement days (August 5, 8, 10, 11, 2016) all showed surface soil water and oxygen isotope composition (δS) > branch water and oxygen isotope composition (δX) > atmospheric water vapor oxygen isotopes composition (δV), with obvious differences due to the isotope fractionation. Oxygen isotopes composition of soil evaporated water vapor (δE) was between -26.89‰~-59.68‰ at the daily scale, showing a pattern of first rising and then decreasing. The oxygen isotopic composition of evapotranspiration water vapor in forest ecosystem (δET) was between -15.99‰~-10.04‰. The oxygen isotopic composition of transpired water vapor under steady state(δT-ISS) was between -12.10‰~-9.51‰. The oxygen isotopic composition of transpired water vapor under non-steady state (δT-NSS) was between -13.02‰~-7.23‰. δET and δT-NSS had the same changing trend throughout the day at the daily scale, while the trend of δET, δT-ISS and δT-NSS was approximately the same during 1100-1700. In general, the contribution rate of plant transpiration to total evapotranspiration showed that FT-ISS was between 79.1%-98.7%, and FT-NSS was between 88.7%-93.7%. TAE226 Our results suggested that water consumption through soil evaporation was far less than that of vegetation transpiration in the study area, and that vegetation transpiration dominated forest evapotranspiration.Before the measurement of stable carbon isotope signatures (δ13C), plant samples should be well homogenized. Using a ball-mill fitted with poly tetra fluoroethylene (PTFE) plastic tubes is one of the most efficient and convenient methods. However, sample-tube plastic might contaminate plant samples during milling. In this study, a two-factor experiment was carried out using four growth chambers, with different relative humidity of the air (50% and 80%) and δ13C of the air (13C depleted and enriched). Leaf samples of Cleistogenes squarrosa (C4) were milled and homogenized using a ball-mill fitted with PTFE tubes and measured for δ13C, and the results were compared with that of leaf samples milled using metal tubes. Due to plastic contamination, 13C discrimination (Δ13C) of the two groups of plants, which were grown in CO2 with different δ13C and could be assumed as replicates, were significantly different (with an offset of 4.8‰ on average). The contamination led to errors in δ13C of individual leaves up to 8‰.
