Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Against the backdrop of global climate change and carbon neutrality goals, accurately assessing the impacts of land use on carbon stocks and linking forward‐looking simulations with the identification of priority restoration zones is essential to shift from reactive responses to proactive planning. In this study, we coupled the PLUS and InVEST

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Urban expansion has exerted both direct and indirect impacts on natural land and ecosystem services it supports, driven by increasing population and food demand, yet these underlying pathways remain insufficiently distinguished. Here, we quantified the losses of soil conservation services (water erosion regulation and sandstorm prevention) and

An evergrowing sweet cherry for research and breeding
Frontiers in Plant ScienceEvergrowing phenotypes in deciduous trees have only been described in three unrelated species: peach, hazelnut and pomegranate. These genotypes are a useful tool for forward genetics approaches aimed at understanding the processes that regulate seasonal ...

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Although machine learning models have been successfully applied to estimate soil organic carbon (SOC), the lack of interpretability research has resulted in the absence of mechanistic explanations for these models. Therefore, in this study, we adopted the following workflow: first, we divided the whole study area into several subregions using ...

W-E-B-S-I-T-E, Find Out What It Means To Me
In the Library with the Lead Pipe, 2009 It’s interesting how many people don’t really understand the concept of open source. People often describe freeware as open source, or they’ll describe free web-based applications as open source, or applications with APIs that allow for ...

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Previous studies often overlooked the dynamic effects of karst vegetation restoration on soil multi‐trophic biodiversity and the underlying community‐assembly mechanisms. To fill this gap, we performed a seasonal comparative analysis of soil biodiversity, co‐occurrence network architecture, and assembly processes across three representative ...

Pollinators may not limit native seed set at puget lowland prairie restoration nurseries
Journal of Pollination Ecology, 2015 Land managers often rely on large-scale production of native seeds in nurseries for replanting into natural environments as part of restoration strategies.

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
