Abstract
The research on the forest soil pore distribution and water storage properties of 4 typical forests(mixed wood,broadleaf forest,bamboo forest and shrub forest)in Jinyun mountain in Chongqing City shows that,the forest soil fast water retaining capacity(temporary non-capillary water capacity) is 1.3～2 times arable farmland,and the effective store water capacity is 1.04～1.77 times arable farmland.The forest soil fast water retaining and store water capacity order of 4 typical forests is shrub forest(171.27,345.18 mm) mixed wood(142.98,240.19 mm) broadleaf forest(128.22,230.18 mm) bamboo forest(124.41,202.92 mm).Shrubs has the maximal water conservation function,and bamboo has the minimal function in the 4 typical forests in Jinyun mountain.
