Land use changes in Northeast China （NE） have the largest impact on soil organic carbon storage compared with other regions. Paddy fields, which were mainly transformed into dry farmland in NE, and constructed land in other regions, were the largest carbon sources among the land use types. Swamp land in NE was also another large soil carbon source when it was transformed into dry farmland or paddy fields. Dry farmland in the NE region formed the largest soil organic carbon sink, as some were trans- formed into paddy fields, forested land, and other land use types with high SOCD.展开更多
