Responses of soil physical and chemical properties to karst rocky desertification evolution in typical karst valley area

IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2018
In order to reveal the differences of soil physical and chemical properties and their response mechanism to the evolution of KRD. The characteristics of soil physical and chemical properties of different grades of KRD were studied by field sampling method to research different types of KRD in the typical karst valley of southern China. Instead of using
