The estuarine and tidal flat silt-promoting project and enclosure project have increased the land supply, but the soil salinization is serious, and the research on the driving mechanism of soil salinity and nutrients in reclamation projects is relatively few. To understand the migration law and major factors influencing saline-alkali ions in soil after reclamation projects, six reclamation areas on Hengsha Island from 2003 to 2018 were used as research locations, and 55 investigation sites were set up to monitor and analyze the saline-alkali ions and physical and chemical indexes in soil and water. The results showed that the reclamation areas in the Yangtze River estuary were all chloride-type saline alkali areas. Among them, the saline-alkali ions in the soil in the reclamation area were significantly higher than those in the old reclamation area within five years. Na+, K+ and Cl- were higher in areas with low moisture content, while Ca2+, SO42- and HCO3- were higher in soil with vegetation. The soil salt ions and physical and chemical indexes in the reclamation area appeared stratified. Correlation analysis showed that organic matter, moisture content and phosphorus were the major factors affecting soil salt ions and pH in the reclamation area.

“…The Pisha stone area on the Loess Plateau is one of the most severely eroded and difficult to manage areas in the world (Zhu et al, 2023). The Pisha stone gully‐hillslope systems are characterized by less rainfall volume, terrain fragmentation, lower vegetation coverage degree, and fragile ecological environment (Liang et al, 2019).…”

The hillslope‐gully system serves as the primary contributor to both runoff and sediment yield. The WEPP (Water Erosion Prediction Project) model is often applied to investigate erosion characteristics at hillslope scale, demonstrating a high level of accuracy in simulating water erosion. In this study, according to in situ field monitoring (2014–2020) at a Pisha sandstone hillslope on the Loess Plateau, China, a total of 50 rainfall events’ data were used as climatic data to calibrate the soil parameters, and 11 different vegetation patterns and four slope gradients of hillslope‐gully systems were installed as inputs for the management and slope data, respectively. In systems A, B, C and D, the hillslope gradients were defined as 5°, 8°, 10° and 12° and the gully gradients as 15°, 20°, 25° and 30°, respectively. The results showed that the steeper the slope, the more severe the erosion. However, there was a critical value for the effect of slope on runoff. When the slope exceeded 8° and the gully exceeded 20°, the runoff no longer increased further and even decreased. The reduction in runoff in hillslope‐gully systems was in the following order (in mm): system D (3.4 ± 0.14) > system C (3.4 ± 0.14) > system B (3.39 ± 0.14) > system A (3.12 ± 0.13). Increasing vegetation cover could reduce erosion. Differences in runoff between vegetation patterns were not significant (p > 0.05) and ranged from 8% to 26%. However, there were significant differences in the sediment yield reduction benefits of different vegetation patterns (p < 0.05), ranging from 17% to 66%. It was observed that vegetation located in the lower slope produced a more pronounced effect in mitigating sediment when the degree of cover was the same. We conclude that implementing watershed management strategies based on the vegetation and topographic attributes of hillslope‐gully systems within the Loess Plateau, especially on Pisha sandstone hillslopes, serves as the fundamental approach to achieving sustainable watershed management.
