[Retracted] Evaluation of Soil Quality for Different Types of Land Use Based on Minimum Dataset in the Typical Desert Steppe in Ningxia, China

Journal of Advanced Transportation, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
When the grassland ecosystem is under investigation, soil quality indexes (SQIs) are constructed to evaluate soil quality substantially, especially in desert grasslands and other ecologically fragile areas. This research used the total dataset (TDS), minimum dataset (MDS), approaches dealing with selecting better indexes, and scoring methods utilizing ...

Groundwater Altered Water Balance and Plant Water Use Efficiency in Desert Ecosystems

Water Resources Research, Volume 61, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract Groundwater is an important water source in water‐limited desert ecosystem. Less attention has been paid to how the water balance and plant performance in such ecosystems vary with the presence or absence of groundwater. Appropriate replanting strategies play a pivotal role in preventing desertification.
