Alpine Secondary Forest Types Influence Soil Microbial Community Structure and Enzyme Activities on the Eastern Qinghai–Tibet Plateau

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 10107-10126, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Soil microbial communities and enzyme activities influence soil functions and tree growth in ecologically fragile alpine regions. However, differences in soil microbial communities among secondary forests remain poorly understood in the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau.

Discriminating Arid Ecosystems and Tracking Desertification Dynamics: Evidence From Grain‐Size End‐Member in the Manas River Basin, Northern Tianshan Mountains

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 10174-10186, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT The ecosystem of the Manas River Basin, composed of mountains, oases, and deserts, constitutes an ideal natural laboratory for investigating surface processes and environmental evolution in arid regions. Elucidating the provenance, transport dynamics, and climate response mechanisms of surface sediments in this system is critical for advancing

Nitrogen‐Fixing Woody Plants Sequester More Soil Mineral‐Associated Carbon and Lose Less Particulate Carbon Than Herbs Post Vegetation Restoration

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 10232-10245, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Dividing soil organic carbon (SOC) into particulate (POC) and mineral‐associated organic carbon (MAOC) is crucial for understanding the formation, persistence, and functions of soil carbon. However, current understanding of the dynamics of new and old carbon in POC and MAOC following vegetation restoration remains unclear.

Functional Effects of the Pioneer Fern Dicranopteris on Soil Fertility and Its Spatial Patterns in Degraded Hilly Landscapes

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 10340-10354, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Vegetation recovery is vital for reversing soil degradation in subtropical red soil regions. This study evaluates the role of the pioneer fern Dicranopteris in enhancing soil fertility and its spatial variability across degraded hills in South China.

Carbon Emissions From Different Functional Zones of Construction Land in the Yellow River Basin Based on Nighttime Light Data and POI Data

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 10387-10404, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT The Yellow River Basin is a critical region for ecological conservation and sustainable development in China. It also serves as a core area for carbon emissions across various functional zones of construction land. Accurately understanding carbon emissions from various types of construction land in the Yellow River Basin is crucial for China ...
