Spatial Lock‐In and Reclamation Delay in Coal‐Subsidence Landscapes: Land Degradation Under Passive Water‐Retention Strategies

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In coal‐grain composite regions, intensive underground coal extraction causes large‐scale surface subsidence; under shallow groundwater conditions, these subsided landscapes rapidly transform former croplands into persistent open water bodies, creating long‐term inundated landscapes. Passive water‐retention strategies in these areas often rely

Climate‐Smart Destination Marketing and Community‐Based Tourism for Socio‐Economic Revitalization in Degraded Landscapes

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As the global tourism industry confronts the existential imperatives of the Anthropocene, the remediation of degraded landscapes through regenerative economic models has emerged as a critical frontier in sustainability science. This research presents a rigorous empirical examination of the “restoration–revenue” paradigm, investigating the ...

Water Table Decline Shifts Microbial Necromass From Particulate to Mineral‐Associated Pools in Peatlands

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microbial necromass carbon (MNC) is a major and stable component of soil organic carbon, yet its fraction‐specific accumulation and stabilization mechanisms remain unclear, particularly in peatlands experiencing hydrological change. We investigated MNC distribution along three independent transects spanning a natural gradient of five ...

From Past to Future: Overall Patterns, Nonlinear Relationships, Spatial Heterogeneity and Drivers of Ecosystem Service Trade‐Offs and Synergies in the Yangtze River Economic Belt

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Land‐use change and climate change are reshaping watershed ecological functions and may intensify the risk of localized ecological degradation. However, existing studies have primarily focused on the spatiotemporal patterns of ecosystem services (ESs) during historical periods, while the nonlinear changes, spatial heterogeneity, and driving ...

Divergent Blue Carbon Trajectories in the Yellow River Delta Post‐1976 Diversion: Hydrological Stability and Human Disturbance Contrasts Revealed by Multi‐Source Remote Sensing (1984–2023)

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Coastal wetlands are critical blue carbon sinks, yet their spatiotemporal dynamics under environmental change remain insufficiently quantified. Taking the Yellow River Delta (YRD) as a natural laboratory, this study synthesizes multi‐source remote sensing data, including optical and radar imagery spanning from 1984 to 2023, to explore the ...

Overgrazing‐Induced Root Carbohydrate Depletion During Winter Dormancy Drives the Decline of Stipa purpurea Populations in the Tibetan Alpine Steppe

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant carbon allocation and physiology are influenced by overgrazing during the growth period. However, the response of plant physiological processes to overgrazing during winter dormancy remains unclear. We analyzed root physiological processes of Stipa purpurea in winter dormancy across three plots: over grazing (FG), exclusions of 2 years ...
