because the regions that are affected, like the American Southwest and California's Central Valley, are extremely vulnerable. If we lose the resources of these vulnerable regions, the impacts to the country as a whole could be devastating. Desertification creates the potential...
Since the turn of the millennium various scientific publications have been discussing a re-greening of the Sahel after the 1980s drought mainly based on coarse-resolution satellite data. However, the author's own field studies suggest th... H Kusserow - 《Earth System Dynamics》 被引量: 0发表...
during desertification. Plant-soil-microbe interactions had significant impacts on the microbial C and P limitations, explaining 72 and 61% of the variation, respectively. Specifically, desertification ultimately affected microbial metabolic limitations by regulating soil pH, soil nutrients, and the plant ...
Since the early 2000s, China has carried out extensive “grain-for-green” and grazing exclusion practices to combat desertification in the desertification-prone region (DPR). However, the environmental and socioeconomic impacts of these practices remain unclear. We quantify and compare the changes i...
Areas with mean actual NPP of less than 50 g C/(m2⋅a) mainly included the midstream and down- stream of the basin in the Badain Jaran Desert. Con- trolled by natural and human impacts, as well as by water resources, the mean actual NPP was larger in the upstream than in the ...
mainly water erosion, wind erosion, salinization and/or sodification, chemical degradation, physical degradation, and biological degradation. The concept of DPSIR (driver, state, impact, and response) has been adopted by the European Environment Agency and other organizations for soil strategy. For ...
(mainly in the middle of Inner Mongolia) with reactivated fixed dunes and shifting sand spread; The remainder of the aeolian desertified land (27% of the aeolian desertified area) is distributed at the margin of oases in the arid zone and lower reaches of inland rivers (mainly in the Alxa ...
The Impacts of Irrational Exploitation and Utilization of Water Resources on Land Desertification and Its Countermeasures in the Arid Area of China 水是干旱区最为宝贵的自然资源之一,水量平衡在很大程度上影响着土地荒漠化过程.本文在荒漠化公约所作的荒漠化气候分区的基础上,对干旱区因水资源的不合理利用对土...
Extremely severe desertification was mainly distributed in the Gobi area of southern Mongolia, and severe desertification was mainly distributed in the southeast. Moderate desertification was mainly distributed in the central and western parts, and light desertification was mainly distributed in the eastern...
