Identification of priority areas for afforestation in the Loess Plateau region of China

Ecological Indicators, 2022
China has led global greening processes over recent decades, however, a series of negative impacts have inevitably emerged in some areas, especially on the Loess Plateau. While the potential for afforestation of the Loess Plateau has been identified, the

Abrupt climatic events recorded by the Ili loess during the last glaciation in Central Asia: Evidence from grain-size and minerals [PDF]

, 2018
The loess record of Central Asia provides an important archive of regional climate and environmental changes. In contrast to the widely investigated loess deposits in the Chinese Loess Plateau, Central Asian loess-paleosol sequences remain poorly ...
