Annual–Perennial Forage Mixtures Improve Forage Productivity and Soil Quality in Patchily Degraded Cultivated Pastures Under Grazing Management

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Patchy degradation of cultivated pastures under long‐term grazing is a serious issue limiting grassland productivity. The use of annual and perennial legume–grass mixtures, which offer complementary functional advantages, may provide a practical reseeding‐based approach for improving patchily degraded cultivated pastures; however, limited ...

Assessing Soil Erosion in a Typical Karst Region: A Model Improved by Bedrock Exposure Rate in Guizhou Province

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil erosion is a major environmental challenge in karst regions of Southwest China, where thin soils and high bedrock exposure accelerate land degradation. This study modified the RUSLE model by incorporating bedrock exposure rate to improve erosion simulation in Guizhou Province from 2000 to 2024.

Stand Age, Standard Retention Density and Site Conditions as Drivers of Shoot Biomass Accumulation in Mediterranean Oak Coppices

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mediterranean oak coppices represent an important fuelwood resource in Central Italy, but management decisions are often constrained by limited quantitative evidence on the relative importance of stand development, standard retention, site conditions, and climate in driving shoot biomass accumulation.

Optimization of Land Pattern in Mining Area Based on the Improvement of Ecosystem Service Function—A Case Study of Fushun Mining Area

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mining activities are prevalent worldwide and pose significant threats to the supply of ecosystem services (ESs) for humanity. Many mining areas face challenges related to recovery and reclamation following resource depletion. A key challenge for the sustainable development of these areas is how to achieve collaborative optimization of land ...
