Carbon–Phosphorus Limitation Is Associated With Shifts in Microbial Life‐History Strategies Across Vegetation Restoration Modes in Alpine Sandy Land on the Tibetan Plateau

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Alpine sandy land on the Tibetan Plateau is fragile, with poorly developed soils, low nutrient availability, and weak biological resilience. Vegetation restoration is widely used to improve soil functioning, yet how microbial nutrient limitation and life‐history strategies vary among restoration modes remains unclear.

Synergistic Regulation of Soil Function and Wind Erosion Resistance by Sand Barriers, Vegetation, and Artificial Biological Crust in the Tengger Desert

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aeolian desertification poses a critical threat to ecosystem stability in arid regions worldwide. Although the combination of sand barriers and vegetation has been widely applied for sand fixation, its long‐term effectiveness is constrained by barrier degradation, slow natural development of biological soil crusts (BSCs), and the resulting ...

Interactions between paleochannels and aeolian processes and their implications on aeolian dune patterns

Geomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk, 2019
Despite paleochannels play a key role in the evolution of aeolian dune patterns, little attention has been paid on the interactions between paleochannels and aeolian processes.

Revealing Dust Source Changes in East Asia From Past to Future: An Interpretable Deep Learning Approach

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aeolian dust source areas are controlled by climate and human activities and are closely associated with land degradation, yet their long‐term evolution under global warming remains insufficiently quantified. An integrated framework that couples a U‐Net segmentation model with Shapley Additive Explanations (SHAP) was built to map and attribute

A Land Potential‐Based Framework for Wind Erosion and Sand and Dust Storm Source Mitigation

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Wind erosion and sand and dust storms are a global challenge. While many management practices to mitigate sources of wind erosion and sand and dust storms have been documented, existing guidance largely emphasizes what practices are available, with limited information on where and under what ecological conditions they should be applied.

Application of Organic Superabsorbent Cellulosic Polymers (OSCPs) and Cyanobacteria on Reduction of Aeolian Losses

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Establishing biocrusts on sandy surfaces in harsh desert environments presents significant challenges due to extreme ecological conditions. To address these challenges, this study examined the effects of two organic superabsorbent cellulosic polymers (OSCPs)—carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and guar gum (GUA)—on the establishment of ...

Cuarteto Aeolian, cuarteto de cuerdas (Reino Unido)

, 1973
Concierto interpretado por el Cuarteto Aeolian. El nombre de este famosísimo conjunto de cámara británico se remonta al año 1927, cuando el concertino de la London Symphony Orchestra formó su propio cuarteto precursor del Aeolian.
