Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2021 Soilless revegetation is a cost-effective and eco-friendly method for the ecological restoration of gold mine tailings. However, due to gold mine tailings are high-salty, alkaline and low-nutrient, little research has been done on soilless revegetation ...

Vegetation Restoration Increases the Drought Risk on the Loess Plateau [PDF]
PlantsThe extensive implementation of the ‘Grain for Green’ project over the Loess Plateau has improved environmental quality. However, it has resulted in a greater consumption of soil water, and its overall hydrological effects remain highly controversial ...

Toward Sustainable Revegetation in the Loess Plateau Using Coupled Water and Carbon Management
Engineering, 2022 The “Grain-for-Green” project on the Loess Plateau is the largest revegetation program in the world. However, revegetation-induced land use changes can influence both water and carbon cycles, and the diverse consequences were not well understood ...
