Soil erosion may deteriorate soil microbial ecosystems, and assessing the impacts of soil erosion on soil
micro-biological properties is important for eroded-soil restoration. Based on the simulated erosion plots
with treatments of eight erosion depths (0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60 and 70 cm) and two sub-treatments of
no fertilizer and chemical fertilizer situated in black soil region, northeast China, soil samples of the 0–20
cm layer in each plots were collected and several key soil biological parameters were determined. The
results indicated that the values of all the variables of soil micro-biological properties had a linearly decreasing
trend with increasing erosion depths.
