- Abstract
Due to the intensified human activities in coastal areas in recent years, the estuary wetlands have been seriously degraded. The artificial restoration using mangrove plants is considered to be an effective restoration method. The research on soil nitrogen and phosphorus mainly focuses on the natural mangrove wetlands, but there is limited information about the effects of mangrove restoration on it. The combination of field sampling and laboratory experiment were used to analyze total nitrogen and total phosphorus contents under different planting patterns during wetland restoration in Jinjiang estuary, Fujian Province. The results revealed that the total nitrogen and total phosphorus contents were higher than control, and there were significant differences between different mixed-vegetation types and planting densities, which indicated that mangrove restoration promoted their accumulation and the planting patterns could affect their concentrations. Additionally, the complex hy-drological process may also be an important factor in the estuarine areas.
