Abstract: On the karst dolomite slope with relatively low rock desertification, research was carried out with attempts to measure and analyze soil space heterogeneous characteristics such as soil -rock distribution and soil depth and soil particle structure in each slope sampling section including rock section, rock-soil section, soil-rock section and soil section. And consequently along with changes in slope length and slope position, the soil quantities in the sampling section tended to accumulate and increase as a result of slope soil erosion and sediment delivery. The variation index was reduced from 1.7 to 0.63. But the structure of soil particles bigger than 2mm increased from 13. 66% to 23. 48%, showing soil particles changed from coarser to coarser. In combination with the analysis of erosion environment and its elements, different soil conservative models have been proposed for karst dolomite slope land according to these slope land sections with different soil heterogeneous features .

Key words: soil heterogeneous characteristic; soil conservative model; karst dolomite slope land; research
