Low鄄covered vegetation is one of typical vegetation patterns in arid and semi鄄arid areas of China through a long term nature succession. These vegetation types consist of a lot natural sparse woodland and shrubbery, the sandland is under semi鄄shifting and semi鄄fixing. However, we found that at low vegetation coverage, the horizontal distribution pattern of trees and shrubs can have marked effects on fixation of shifting sands, and different horizontal distribution patterns have the different restoration degrees of the soil and vegetation. In this paper, for clarify impacts of low鄄covered sand fixing forest belts on natural vegetation restoration and soil development, the variation and rule of soil nutrients and vegetation with different distribution patterns were researched in Aohan, Chifeng City, Inner Mongolia. The characteristics of community and structure, the physical and chemical characteristics of soil, the amount of soil microbes in different distribution patterns were investigated. The data obtained from the experiment were analyzed with the principal components, the canonical correlation and fuzzy comprehensive evaluation, which obtain coefficient of different recovery scale.
