Abstract: The Soil ecological stoichiometry properties in different re-vegetation stages(including preliminary stage(Ⅰ), middle preliminary stage(Ⅱ), middle anaphase(Ⅲ) and anaphase(Ⅳ)) and soil layers(including soil layers of 0~10 cm, 10~20 cm, 20~40 cm, 40~60 cm, 60~80 cm, 80~100 cm and 0~100 cm ) in Hengyang City of Hunan Province, South-central China were studied by using the method of the space for time. The results showed that: (1)In the process of re-vegetation, SOC(Soil organic carbon) in each soil layer of every re-vegetation stage first increased then decreased and presenting a regulation “anti-U”, TN(Total nitrogen) and TP(Total phosphorus) were significantly decreased with the increase of soil depth and showing a clear table cohesion, the content of SOC showed the regulation of wave and showing significantly differences(P<0.05), TN and TP were followed the order as anaphase(Ⅳ)>middle anaphase(Ⅲ)>middle preliminary stage(Ⅱ)>preliminary stage(Ⅰ)(P<0.05); (2)In the process of re-vegetation, the SOC, TN and TP content of 0~100 cm soil layer were significantly increased(P<0.05), but the C/N, C/P and N/P were significantly decreased(P<0.05); (3)Correlation analysis showed that there was extremely significantly positive correlation between C/N and SOC, SER(Soil electricity rate)(P<0.01), and extremely significantly negative correlation with TN, TP, SWC(Soil water content), SBD(Soil bulk density); C/P was extremely significantly positive correlation with SOC(P<0.01), and extremely significantly negative correlation with SWC and SBD; N/P was extremely significantly positive correlation with SOC, TN, TP, pH value(P<0.05 or P<0.01), and extremely significantly negative correlation with SBD and SER(P<0.01). All the results indicated the demands of N and P content in soil by plants were consistent in the process of re-vegetation.
