Figure 4

Vertical variation of soil TN (a) and TP (b) content under different vegetation degradation levels in the Gahai wet meadow, China. CK = primary wet meadow; LD = lightly degraded; MD = moderately degraded; HD = highly degraded. Error bars indicate standard errors of the mean (n = 3). Different capital letters (A, B, C) indicate significant differences in SOC due to vegetation degeneration (P < 0.05); different lower case letters (a, b, c, d, e, f) indicate significant differences between the soil layers under the same vegetation degradation (P < 0.05).
