Correlation mechanism between rocky desertification degrees and slope position factors in karst mountainous area of southeast Yunnan

open access: yesCarsologica Sinica
As a kind of land degradation phenomenon, rocky desertification is one of the main ecological problems in karst areas in Southwest China. The key to the effective control of rocky desertification is to explore the distribution law and influence mechanism

Preliminary Characterization of Underground Hydrological Processes under Multiple Rainfall Conditions and Rocky Desertification Degrees in Karst Regions of Southwest China [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Karst regions are widely distributed in Southwest China and due to the complexity of their geologic structure, it is very challenging to collect data useful to provide a better understanding of surface, underground and fissure flows, needed to calibrate ...

Assessing spatial-temporal evolution processes and driving forces of karst rocky desertification

open access: yes, 2021
Karst Rocky Desertification (KRD) has become the most serious ecological disaster in Southwest China. We used the data of Thematic Mapper (TM) images from 1990, 1995, 2000, 2004, and 2011 and the 2016 Operational Land Imager (OLI) image.

Evolution of rocky desertification and its response to land use changes in the karst areas of Guangxi

open access: yesCarsologica Sinica
This study focuses on the karst areas of Guangxi, Southwest China, which cover an area of 9.87×104 km2 (accounting for 41% of Guangxi's total land area) and feature a subtropical monsoon climate, complete karst landforms (dominated by peak cluster ...

Response of Vegetation Greenness to Extreme Droughts and Possible Mechanisms in Guizhou Province, China

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
Spatiotemporal variations of the two drought events and the different response of vegetation NDVI to both events were investigated based on multiple data in Guizhou Province. The 2009–2010 drought exerted a inhibitory effect on vegetation growth, while the 2011 drought exhibited a milder impact, even demonstrating continued green growth amidst the dry ...

Study on the Coupling and Coordinated Development of Agricultural Eco‐Economic System and Its Barrier Factors in Karst Areas of Southwest China

open access: yesAdvances in Agriculture, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The coordinated development of the agricultural eco‐economic system in karst areas faces severe constraints under the dual pressures of a fragile ecological environment and socioeconomic activities. Taking the main karst areas in southwestern China—Guangxi, Yunnan, and Guizhou provinces—as case studies, this study assessed the coupling coordination ...

Effects of Moss Overlay on Soil Patch Infiltration and Runoff in Karst Rocky Desertification Slope Land

open access: yes, 2022
The growth and overlay of a large number of bryophytes in the broken soil patches between the exposed bedrocks of karst have an essential influence on the infiltration and runoff process between the exposed bedrocks and even the whole rocky ...

Landscape Structural Patterns and Soil–Water Loss in the Karst Critical Zone in Southwest China: Coupling Mechanisms, Regional Specificity, and Research Challenges

open access: yesLand
Karst critical zones in Southwest China are highly vulnerable to soil–water loss because thin soils, exposed carbonate bedrock, well-developed epikarst, and strong surface–subsurface connectivity promote both surface erosion and subsurface leakage ...
