Spatiotemporal Interactions of Land Use Change, Land Surface Temperature, and Vegetation Dynamics in China's Caohai National Nature Reserve

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding the spatiotemporal dynamics of land use change (LUC), land surface temperature (LST), and vegetation indices is critical for assessing ecological changes and informing sustainable land management. This study investigates the long‐term interrelationships between LUC, LST, and vegetation indices in China's Caohai National Nature ...

GYPSUM KARST IN THE OLVERA AREA (CADIZ PROVINCE, ANDALUSIA, SPAIN)

open access: yes, 2009
In the Olvera area (Cádiz Province, Andalusia, Spain) different karstic lithologies (preferentially carbonates and gypsum) are recognizable, relating to rainfall values of the zone and producing a karst complex of a certain interest.

Seasonal Dynamics of Soil Multitrophic Biodiversity, Co‐Occurrence Network and Assembly Mechanisms Under Typical Vegetation Restoration Patterns in Karst Region

open access: yesLand 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 ...

Land Degradation Pathways of Open‐Pit and Underground Mining in Karst Regions: A Spatial Indicator Assessment

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mining in the karst regions of southwest China threatens ecosystem stability and accelerates land degradation. Regional evaluation rarely distinguishes between degradation pathways in open‐pit and underground operations, due to spatial heterogeneity and geomorphological confounding effects.

From Trapped to Resilient Mountains: Diversified Coupling Pathways Linking Land Use Transition and Rural Revitalization for Mountain Sustainable Development

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The synergistic interplay among land use transition, rural revitalization, and sustainable development is critical for harmonizing human‐land‐economic systems. Understanding their diverse coupling pathways is key to resolving human‐land conflicts and advancing sustainable rural development in mountainous regions. However, existing research has

Subsurface flow aggravates the soil erosion on steep slopes in karst post-mining areas

open access: yesJournal of Hydrology: Regional Studies
On karst steep slopes, subsurface flow frequently emerges at the rock-soil interface, thereby exacerbating soil erosion. However, there have been few studies that quantitatively assess the impact of subsurface flow on soil erosion in this region.

An Elasto–Plastic Hydro–Mechanical Model for Analyzing the Swelling Behavior of Heterogeneous Clay–Sulfate Rocks

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Swelling of clay‐sulfate rocks is a concern in geotechnical engineering that can damage infrastructure. In the historic town of Staufen in southwest Germany, geothermal drilling into a swellable anhydrite‐bearing clay formation resulted in water inflow and subsequent swelling, triggering ground heave and damage to more than 250 houses.

Geomorphological aspects of gypsum karst areas with special emphasis on exposed karst

open access: yesInternational Journal of Speleology, 1996
Medium- to large-size forms in gypsum karst are described, including dolines, blind valleys, ploje-like depressions, collapses and positive and/or residual forms such as outliers, cone-like hills, dome-like hills, mesa-like tabular blocks and plateaux and breccia pipe hills.
