Impact of Road Network Development on the Spatiotemporal Soil Erosion in the Three‐River Source Region

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As a vital water conservation region in China, the Three River Source Region (TRSR) plays a critical role in safeguarding regional ecological security and ensuring the sustainable utilization of water resources. In this study, the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) was employed to quantify soil erosion in the study area across three ...

Regional estimation of daily to annual regional evapotranspiration with MODIS data in the Yellow River Delta wetland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Evapotranspiration (ET) from the wetland of the Yellow River Delta (YRD) is one of the important components in the water cycle, which represents the water consumption by the plants and evaporation from the water and the non-vegetated surfaces.

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

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
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 ...

Land Degradation and Its Economic Impacts on Agriculture and Forestry: Exploring IoT‐Based Mitigation Strategies

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Land degradation threatens agricultural and forestry economies by lowering productivity, raising input costs, and increasing risk. This study examines whether Internet of Things applications moderate these losses in 1321 mainland Chinese counties from 2011 to 2024. Land degradation is measured separately through vegetation trends, modeled soil
