Effects of Continuous Electric/Magnetic Field Treatment on Nutrient, Enzyme Activity, and Bacterial Community Structure in Rocky Desertification Soils
) was enhanced following both treatments. Mantel analysis further indicated strengthened correlations among soil nutrients, enzyme activities, and bacterial communities, particularly under magnetic field treatment. These findings demonstrate that electric and magnetic field applications effectively facilitate nutrient cycling, stimulate enzyme activities, and optimize microbial community structure, thereby improving soil ecological functions and overall quality in rocky desertification regions, highlighting their potential for ecological restoration in karst areas.
