Zusammenfassung:It is important to study the mechanisms associated with the spatial distribution of soil water and salt to control soil salinization and promote the sustainable development of farmland. Six plots in a slight farmland with different spatial locations were selected to determine the spatial distribution of soil water and salt and their correlation using the multifractal method. Each plot was applied using the grid method (15 m × 15 m, 3600 m2), where each sampling site was located at the center point coordinates. The 0–20 and 20–40 cm soil layers were sampled.The spatial variability of the soil water and salt were 1.41 and 1.73 fold higher in the upstream farmland than in the downstream farmland. The spatial variability of the soil water and salt was significantly correlated. In addition, the spatial variability of the soil water and salt significantly correlated in the 0–20 and 20–40 cm layers. The spatial distribution of both soil water and salt in the entire soil layer had similar characteristics at this sampling scale. Our results provide a theoretical basis to study the interactive mechanisms associated with the distribution of soil water and salt.
