As the name indicates, erosion control blankets cover wide areas ofsoil on a steep hillside. Some of these blankets are synthetic materials known as “geotextiles.” Others are simple but strong netting crafted from organic material like coconut. They’re biodegradable and protect your soil from ...
Sod also creates a uniform and consistent appearance, free of patchy areas or bare spots. This results in a polished and manicured look right from the start. Additionally, sod helps prevent soil erosion, making it an ideal choice for sloped or hilly areas where erosion can be a concern. A ...
Oregon grape is native to northern North America, primarily in eastern and western Canadian provinces and the northwestern United States. Its natural habitat is found primarily in mountainous and hilly regions with cooler climates. Plants develop upright, woody stems and will spread by underground rhiz...
Globally,rain-fed agriculture is practised on 83% of cultivated land and supplies more than 60% of the world's food(FAO,2001).In-situ water conservation,often combined with water harvesting measures,can contribute significantly making better use of the rain in dry areas to supply the crops dur...
Shaanxi to cellar irrigated as the focus, vigorously implement the jiyujieguan, sediment silt engineering; Shaanxi in natural forest protection and reforestation; Guanzhong plain to improve forest green; the main sandy area along the Great Wall, the Loess Plateau hilly and gully area of planting ...
Only centralized contiguous and large-scale is a basic principle in the scope design of HFC, but the mountainous and hilly areas are obviously different from the plain areas (as shown in columns (7) and (8) of Table 7). Therefore, this also reminds us that the appropriate scale of ...
[26] used the soil carbon model(Yasso) to predict changes in forest carbon stocks under different frequencies of storms and climate change scenarios. These studies mostly covered large-scale areas such as countries and watersheds, with little mention of provincial-scale regions in interprovincial ...

Due to the constant erosion by the Yellow River and the Yiluo River, there are many wide and deep loess gullies, some of which are deeper than 30 m. The bottom of the valley is flat, and most of the residential areas are linearly distributed in the direction of the river. Based on ...
In June, a cultivator is passed to break the soil’s superficial crust and promote its aeration. Finally, in autumn, a broad-spectrum herbicide was added to control weeds under trees to allow the OG harvest. 2.3. Soil Sampling and Analytical Methods According to GSOC-MRV Protocol [59], ...
