In order to clarify the nutrients and stoichiometric changes of soil aggregates in different forest types, reveal the soil nutrient retention and limitation characteristics of coal mining subsidence land, and then screen out the best reclaimed-forest types. In this study, three types of reclaimed forests, namely Amygdalus sylvestris, Prunus sylvestris, and Xanthomonas serrata, were set up on the Shenfu-Dongsheng mining area in the coal mining subsidence area. At the same time, the nearby unsettled and unplanted abandoned farmland was used as a control, based on the dry sieve method to explore the soil mechanical stability aggregate composition, soil SOC (organic carbon), TN (total nitrogen), TP (total phosphorus) content and its stoichiometric characteristics in response to long-term vegetation reclamation in 0-40 cm soil law. The results showed that the content of soil micro-aggregates of different reclaimed-forest types decreased while the content of large aggregates increased, and the total amount of large aggregates >0.25 mm in each forest type exceeded 70%. The content of SOC, TN and TP in soils of different forest types 0.25 mm large aggregates to soil SOC, TN and TP were 72%-83%,66%-74%, 65%-82% respectively. The C/N, C/P and N/P of soil aggregates of different forest types were all lower than the average of national and global. Soil TN was positively correlated with SOC and TP, and negatively correlated with C/N (P
