Facilitation and sand burial affect plant survival during restoration of a tropical coastal sand dune degraded by tourist cars

Restoration Ecology, 2016
Coastal sand dunes support various ecosystem services, including storm protection and tourism. Restoration programs are often critical to preserve this ecosystem due to its fragility and high degree of degradation. Dune restoration still suffers from a general lack of knowledge of the ecological processes controlling tropical dune communities.

Vegetation restoration and prevention of coastal sand dunes erosion using ion exchange resins and the plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria Bacillus sp. SH1RP8 isolated from indigenous plants

International Biodeterioration & Biodegradation, 2014
Abstract In this study, Bacillus sp. SH1RP8, which showed salt tolerance toward 8% of salinity, was isolated and evaluated the plant growth-promoting ability, IAA producibility, active ACC deaminase and siderophores synthesis. Bacillus sp. SH1RP8 enhanced the shoot growth and dry weight of Peucedanum japonicum, the representative coastal sand dune ...

Impacts of artificially planted vegetation on the ecological restoration of movable sand dunes in the Mugetan Desert, northeastern Qinghai-Tibet Plateau

International Journal of Sediment Research, 2017
Abstract Controlling desertification is an important ecological target for the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau of China, where studies on impacts of vegetation restoration measures on sandy soil improvement are still lacking. The Mugetan Desert in Guinan County, Qinghai Province, northeastern Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is a representative ecological restoration ...

Plant Functional Types Across Dune Fixation Stages in the Chinese Steppe Zone and Their Applicability for Restoration of the Desertified Land

2012
Desertification is among the most serious environmental and socio-economic problems in the world. In northern China, aeolian desertification has resulted in dunes in the Chinese steppe zone. It is not only an issue of ecological and environmental problems, but also of social economic problems, which lead to soil erosion, degradation of vegetation ...
