Abstract: China has a large area. It's geographical environment (including reliefs climates etc)is very complex. So China abounds with forest types and soil types.According to natural condition, Chinese forest soils can be divided into three parts, namely: Eastern humid region, Meng-Xin arid region and Qing-Zang plateau.Ⅰ. In the Eastern region, the distributive rules of forest types and soils are: (from north to south)1. Brown coniferous forest soils under larch forests in Daxinganling mountainous forest areas.2. Dark brown forest soils under mixed forests of pine and deciduous broad-leaved trees in eastern part of Northeast forest areas.3. Cinnamon soils, brown forest soils under deciduous broad-leaved forests and xerophilous pine forests in Northern China forest areas.4. Yellow brown forest soils under mixed forest of everygreen and deciduous trees in Qinling and Daiba mountainous forest areas.5. Red soils and yellow earths under evergreen broad-leaved forests in Southern China forest areas.6. Laterite, mountain lateritic soils under the tropical monsoon forests and mountain rain forests in Hainan island and the southern Yunnan province.Ⅱ. Meng-Xin arid region, its forest types and soils are:1. Mountain gray forest soils under larch forests in the southwestern aspect Aertaishan mountainous forest areas.2. Mountain gray cinnomonic forest soils under spruce forest in the northern aspect of Tianshan and Helanshan etc. mountainous forest areas.Ⅲ. Qing-Zang plateau is a special natural geographical area with complex forest types and soils, such as mountain gray-cinnamonic forest soils, Mountain dark brown forest soils, mountain brown dark-coniferous forest soils under dark needle-leaved forests. Mountain yellow earths under evergreen broad leaved forests.In this paper, discussions about the evaluation of productivity of forest soils in main forest areas of China are also presented.
