Long‐term trends in greenness in the alpine zone of northeastern North America from remote sensing

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Alpine zones above treeline in the Appalachian Mountains and adjacent ranges of northeastern North America support distinctive ecological communities that thrive where conditions are too harsh for trees to grow. These communities differ from alpine zones elsewhere on the continent and are a regionally important source of floristic biodiversity,

Study on the influencing factors of shear strength of loess mudstone interface.

PLoS ONE
In Loess Plateau, low shear strength of the loess-mudstone contact interface leads to the loess-mudstone landslides. However, the influencing factors of shear strength of loess-mudstone interface and the disaster-causing effect of interface landslide are

Applied Numerical Modelling of Landscape Evolution in Anthropogenic Landscapes: A Systematic Review

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 9, September 2026.
This systematic review examines how landscape evolution models have been applied to analyse long‐term change in anthropogenic landscapes. The review evaluates modelling approaches, applications, limitations and key knowledge gaps to assess the potential of these models for long‐term landscape and risk management.

Loess landslide types and topographic features at South Jingyang Plateau, China

, 2010
The South Jingyang plateau, which has a total area of 70 km2, is located in Shaanxi Province, China. Groundwater table in this loess plateau has been significantly raised since 1976 when the loess cover began to be artificially irrigated. Up to now, more

Establishing Monthly Benchmarks for Erosion Control and Vegetation Restoration Targets Across the Loess Plateau

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 15, Page 11500-11515, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Establishing scientifically grounded soil erosion control targets and feasible vegetation restoration strategies is crucial for high quality development of the Chinese Loess Plateau which is severely affected by soil erosion. Currently, the commonly used tolerable soil loss (TSL) is inadequate for addressing the spatial heterogeneity in ...

Plants Uptake Substantial Water From the Surface Organic Layer in Highly Permeable Karst Critical Zones

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Plants growing in highly permeable karst critical zones are exposed to shallow soils and rapid hydrological turnover. The surface organic layer is recognized as a key ecohydrological interface in these environments, yet its direct contribution to plant water uptake has rarely been quantified.

Origin and weathering of landslide material in a loess area: a geochemical study of the Kulcs landslide, Hungary

, 2016
Geochemical characteristics of sediments are responses to physical and chemical alteration in landslides. However, consequences of in situ interactions associated with landslides are difficult to distinguish from those related to long-term weathering in ...
