Alternative vegetation states on the Loess Plateau and implications for large-scale afforestation success.

Radial growth resilience assessment and management implications for major planted forests in the west loess plateau based on improved parameters.

Application of Participatory Monitoring and Evaluation in Water and Soil Conservation of Loess Plateau

Comparing to the traditional monitoring and evaluation,the participatory monitoring and evaluation is more preponderant obviously,which is more and more widely used at home.The concept of the participatory monitoring and evaluation is descr...

Influence of check dams on water and sediment processes and deposition patterns under simulated rainfall conditions

The Loess Plateau in China has the highest soil erosion and water loss rates in the world. Therefore, check dams, which are more useful engineering measures, have been established to improve soil and water conservation in small watershed. T...

Comparison of Deep Learning Models for LAI Simulation and Interpretable Hydrothermal Coupling in the Loess Plateau

As the world’s largest loess deposit region, the Loess Plateau’s vegetation dynamics are crucial for its regional water–heat balance and ecosystem functioning. Leaf Area Index (LAI) serves as a key indicator bridging canopy architecture and...

Global patterns of gully occurrence and their sensitivity to environmental changes

Gully formation is a significant driver of soil erosion and land degradation worldwide and often leads to important downstream impacts. Nonetheless, our understanding of the global patterns and the factors controlling this process remains l...
