However, how afforestation effects influence the temperature sensitivity (Q\n                    <jats:sub>10<\/jats:sub>\n                    ) of soil organic carbon (SOC) mineralization remains poorly understood in the WLF zone under climate warming. Here, we collected soils from paired planted and unplanted plots in the WLF zone and non-flooding zone in the Three Gorges Reservoir after six years of Taxodium \u201cZhongshanshan\u201d plantation. The Q\n                    <jats:sub>10<\/jats:sub>\n                    was estimated during a 60-day incubation at 20\u00a0\u00b0C and 30\u00a0\u00b0C. Soil carbon\/nitrogen fractions, potential of minerals to adsorb SOC, and SOC molecular structure were analysed at the end of the incubation. The afforestation increased cumulative SOC mineralization by 53.2% in the non-flooding zone but reduced it by 13.7% in the WLF zone over the 60-day incubation. The afforestation increased Q\n                    <jats:sub>10<\/jats:sub>\n                    by 31.3% in the non-flooding zone but did not change Q\n                    <jats:sub>10<\/jats:sub>\n                    in the WLF zone. The six-year plantation elevated nitrate nitrogen and dissolved total nitrogen in the WLF zone, yet reduced them in the non-flooding zone. The afforestation decreased the SOC stability in the WLF zone in contrast to the non-flooding zone. Correspondingly, the increase in the potential of minerals to adsorb SOC, indicated by the molar ratios of metals to SOC, i.e., molar (Fe\n                    <jats:sub>d<\/jats:sub>\n                    + Al\n                    <jats:sub>d<\/jats:sub>\n                    )\/SOC, molar (Fe\n                    <jats:sub>o<\/jats:sub>\n                    + Al\n                    <jats:sub>o<\/jats:sub>\n                    )\/SOC, and exchangeable Ca-to-SOC (Ca\n                    <jats:sub>exe<\/jats:sub>\n                    \/SOC), was greater in the WLF zone than in the non-flooding zone.
