Abstract: Taking the DOM extracted from the leaf litter of Populus tomentosa and the soil at depths of 0.1 m,1 m and 50 m in Xinmi County,Zhengzhou City,Henan Province as the research object,the evolution and distribution characteristics of DOM in soil layers were compared and analysed by UV-vis and three dimensional fluorescence spectroscopy,combined with the measurement of physical and chemical indexes.The results showed that the fluorescence intensity of the fulvic acid peak was the highest in the fluorescence spectrum of DOM extracted from Populus tomentosa,while there was no obvious humic acid peak in the DOM samples extracted from the studied soil.The fluorescence intensity of aromatic protein peak and microbial byproduct peak decreased with the increase of soil depth,and there was only weak fulvic acid peak in the DOM from the soil with the depth of 50 m.The soil in the study area was alkalescent.The carbon content in the studied soil decreased gradually with the soil depth while the nitrogen content increased first and then decreased.The soild at the location of 1m from the surface might be the active layer of chemical reaction in shallow soil,with the most obvious characteristics of“autogenous source”,and the microbial activity was significantly higher than other soil layers.The studied natural organic matter degraded with rainfall and surface runoff infiltration to generate small molecular organic matter,and the migration capability of organic matter decreased with the increase of depth.There was a significant linear positive correlation between humification degree and hydrophobic component content of DOM samples from plant leaf litter and soils(R2 = 0.998) .
