Desertification Risk: Bibliometric Analysis and Future Research Directions

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Desertification, driven by climatic and anthropogenic factors, is one of the most pressing global environmental challenges, causing significant economic, ecological, and social consequences. A bibliometric analysis was performed to identify research trends and gaps in the desertification risk topic.

Effect of a Trench Combined With Exclosure on Recovery of Herbaceous Biomass in Degraded Mountain Areas in Hawasa Watershed, Southern Ethiopia

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to evaluate the restoration of herbaceous biomass in degraded mountain lands by comparing the impact of trenches established alongside exclosures (EX‐SWC) to exclosures alone (EX). To achieve the objective, herbaceous biomass was collected from areas restored using EX‐SWC and EX over three consecutive years ...

Evaluation of Sediment Connectivity Indices to Improve the Prediction of the Spatiotemporal Variability of Sediment Yield for a Large River Basin (Wei River, China)

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sediment connectivity between source areas and the main streams or local sinks is a complex and dynamic process, especially in large basins due to multiple heterogeneities and interactions between connectivity components. Sediment connectivity indices are promising tools to investigate sediment transport, especially in data‐scarce or large ...

Carbon Stock and Environmental Variations of Typical Plantations in Mufu Mountain in Hubei Province, China

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Forest ecosystems play a critical role in the global carbon cycle. As a significant terrestrial carbon sink, plantations exhibit carbon stock patterns that are shaped by tree species composition, stand structure, and environmental conditions. Here, we investigated typical plantation types in the Mufu Mountain, Hubei Province.
