Abstract

With the development of industrialization, the pollution of heavy metals in soil, such as lead (Pb) and cadmium (Cd), has become increasingly serious. On the other hand, the century old climate warming is considered to be the result of the significant increase in the concentration of greenhouse gases, such as CO2, in the atmosphere. These changes will affect the function and stability of the terrestrial ecosystem. Therefore, in recent years, there are more and more studies on the effects of heavy metal pollution and elevated atmospheric CO2 concentration on plants. But most of them focus on the study of the aboveground part of herbaceous plants under the action of single factor, and the study of the soil microenvironment of woody plants under the combined action of these environmental factors is relatively less. This study summarized the response of rhizosphere microenvironment to the coupling of climate warming and soil pollution, in order to provide theoretical reference for improving soil quality and ecological environment.
