reforestation and integration of livestock and crop production systems, coupled with good linkages to light processing industries.This paper identifies the causal factors of desert encroachment, assesses its impact on the environment and humanity and concludes by recommending specific strategies to control ...
urbanization, and land degradation (Gendre, 2023). Desertification is such a serious problem because it creates a positive feedback loop that significantly limits the amount of water in an environment.
Due to the potential significant effects of desertification on China’s ecology and food security, the Chinese government has carried out several desertification-combating actions to improve vegetation condition3,4, and since the early 2000s, more major countermeasures involving widespread “grain-for-gr...
Frequency Dependent Invasion in a Spatial Environment We investigate the spatio-temporal dynamics of two species in a two-dimensional system. The spread of each species depends non-linearly on the local frequency of its kind in its surrounding (expressed by two parameters $\\alpha_{1}$, $\\....
environment, which is susceptible to deforestation and, further, RD2. As found by earlier studies, the estimated soil formation rate on average is ~11 tons per square kilometer annually in the karst areas of southwest China30, while purple soil corresponds to a formation rate of 800–1200 ...
effects of bleak or parching winds, and the annual deposit of the foliage of deciduous trees, and the decomposition of their decaying trunks, form an accumulation of vegetable mould, which gives the greatest fertility to the often originally barren soils on which they grow, and enriches lower ...
As the international agreement on sustainable land management,we have to make progress to achieve land degradation neutrality by 2030, and envision a world after that date, where this neutrality ensures a proper environment for people, communities and countries to create wealth, ...
desertification due to intensive agriculture and land degradation, locations on the shoulders of deserts, and susceptibility to drought. California, as it is a leading agricultural state with large urban populations, serves as a prime example for the effects of poor land management increasing the ...
1215 has pivotal roles in immune response, inflammation, and survival of T cells, it also has potential drawbacks, including ambiguous effects on T-cell proliferation, possible hindrance of the immune response against tumours, and association with chronic inflam- matory conditions and autoimmune ...
Having identified the causes of the problem, this paper proposes that the national policy for drought and desertification should ensure sustainable development based on proper management of human-environment interactions in the affected areas. Practical implications – The evaluation method performed in ...
