中文摘要：

以亚洲中部干旱区准噶尔盆地南缘荒漠区为研究区，根据荒漠距离绿洲的距离，分别在荒漠边缘、中部和腹地设置3条样带，并采集2m深的土壤剖面样品，研究土壤有机碳（SOC）、无机碳（SIC）含量及其稳定碳同位素的分布，探讨土壤碳变化与距绿洲距离的关系．结果表明：SOC含量随剖面土层深度增加而减少．受距绿洲距离的影响，SOC含量表现为荒漠边缘〉荒漠中部〉荒漠腹地．荒漠边缘SOC的δ13C值范围为-21．92‰- -17．41‰，且随深度增加而递减；荒漠中部和荒漠腹地的δ13C值范围为-25．20‰- -19．30‰，且随深度增加先增后减，由此推断准噶尔盆地南缘荒漠中部和腹地地表植被以C3植物为主，而绿洲边缘经历了从C3植物为主到C4植物为主的演替过程．荒漠边缘SIC平均含量为38．98g·kg^-1，是荒漠腹地的6．01倍，表明0～2m深度内大量SIC在荒漠边缘呈聚集趋势．SIC的δ13C值随深度增加先减后增，底层富集，主要受原生碳酸盐含量和剖面土壤CO2的影响．

英文摘要：

The southern margin desert of Junggar Basin in the central arid region of Asia was selec- ted as the study area. To gain insight into the distribution characteristic of stable carbon isotope and the relationship between the change of soil carbon and the distance to oasis of soil organic carbon （SOC） and soil inorganic carbon （ SIC）, three belt transects were set according to the distance be- tween the desert and the oasis in edge, middle and hinterland of the desert respectively, and col- lected the soil profile samples with depth of 2 m. The results indicated that the SOC content reduced with the soil depth, and the variation with the distance to oasis was the edge〉 the middle〉 the hin- terland. The δ13C value of SOC varied in the range of -21.92‰ to -17.41‰, and decreased with the depth; the range in the middle and hinterland was -25.20‰ to -19.30‰, and increased then declined with the depth. Therefore, we could infer that the C3 plants played a dominant role in the central of desert, and had experienced the succession from C3 plants to C4 plants. The average con- tent of SIC was 38.98 g · kg^-1 in the edge of desert, which was about 6.01 folds as large as the con- tent in the hinterland. This indicated that a large number of SIC with 0-2 m deoth were clustered in the edge of the desert. The δ13C value of SIC increased first then decreased with the soil depth, and enriched in the bottom layer, which was mainly affected by the original carbonate content and soil carbon dioxide.
