Heterogeneity and Controlling Mechanisms of Soil Organic Carbon Stocks Across Erosion Zones in China Under Future Climate Scenarios

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil organic carbon (SOC), as a key indicator of global carbon cycling and climate change response, plays a critical role in regional ecological security and agricultural sustainability. This study employs three machine learning models including the LightGBM, XGBoost, and random forest to simulate the spatial distribution of topsoil SOC stocks

Integrating Machine Learning and StoDyM for Check Dam Site Selection on the Loess Plateau, China

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Severe soil erosion in the Loess Plateau has led to significant land degradation, threatening agricultural productivity and ecosystem stability. Check dams, as a critical soil–water conservation measure, have proven effective in mitigating sediment loss and reclaiming farmland.

Contributions of Vegetation Restoration to Soil Organic Carbon Sequestration in Deserts of China: A Meta‐Analysis

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vegetation restoration has been widely used to curb desertification in northern and central desert shifting sandy lands of China. However, the general pattern, variability, and drivers of its effects on soil organic carbon (SOC) remain unclear.

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 ...

Assessing Soil Erosion in a Typical Karst Region: A Model Improved by Bedrock Exposure Rate in Guizhou Province

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil erosion is a major environmental challenge in karst regions of Southwest China, where thin soils and high bedrock exposure accelerate land degradation. This study modified the RUSLE model by incorporating bedrock exposure rate to improve erosion simulation in Guizhou Province from 2000 to 2024.
