Mechanism and Evolution of Soil Organic Carbon Coupling with Rocky Desertification in South China Karst

, 2021
To study the spatial distribution characteristics of soil organic carbon (SOC) coupled with rocky desertification, 1212 soil samples from 152 soil profiles were sampled from different karst landforms, including karst low hills/virgin forest (KLH) in Libo

Progress and Prospects of Research on Microhabitat Scale Characterization and Utilization in Chinese Karst Area. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Karst regions exhibit ecologically fragile environments but host a rich diversity of microhabitats across spatial scales. Vegetation productivity and carbon sequestration patterns are intricately governed by subterranean microhabitat conditions. Microhabitat‐based technologies demonstrate transformative potential in reconciling human livelihoods with ...

KARST ROCKY DESERTIFICATION ANALYSIS BASED ON HISTORICAL DISP DATA TAKE TWO REGIONS FOR EXAMPLE [PDF]

The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2020
Karst rocky desertification (KRD) is used to characterize the processes that transform a karst area covered by vegetation and soil into a rocky landscape almost devoid of soil and vegetation.

A study on poverty caused by rocky desertification in karst areas of China

Carsologica Sinica, 2022
Rocky desertification is a land degradation process that changes a karst area covered by soil and vegetation to a rocky, desert-like landscape, which causes not only ecological problems but also serious social problems.

Establishment of rocky desertification index in Southwest of China

, 2014
© 2014 IEEE. Rocky desertification is a type of land desertification. It comes from the fragile ecological and geological environment, where the human activity is very strong and the land productivity is degraded severely.
