Wind speed in spring dominated the decrease in wind erosion across the Horqin Sandy Land in northern China

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2021
Wind erosion is the main cause of land degradation and desertification in drylands. Severe wind erosion affects regional ecological security and endangers the health of people. The Horqin Sandy Land is one of the largest sandy lands in China.

Spatiotemporal dynamics and drivers of wind erosion on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, China

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2021
Land degradation caused by wind erosion seriously threatens the supply of ecosystem services on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP). Assessing wind erosion variations is critical to identify key change areas and formulate desertification control strategies ...

Wind Erosion Climate Change in Northern China During 1981–2016

open access: yesInternational Journal of Disaster Risk Science, 2020
Wind erosion is largely controlled by climate conditions. In this study, we examined the influences of changes in wind speed, soil wetness, snow cover, and vegetation cover related to climate change on wind erosion in northern China during 1981–2016.

Effect of the Type of Wind Data on Regional Potential Wind Erosion Estimation

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2022
The Agro-Pastoral Ecotone of Northern China (APEC) is a transitional area suffering from severe wind erosion. The wind data used in wind erosion modeling generally have different temporal resolutions and spatial station distributions.

Wind erosion and its ecological effects on soil in the northern piedmont of the Yinshan Mountains

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2021
Soil erosion by wind is a serious problem that threatens ecological security and damages the ecological environment, thereby hindering the sustainable development of agriculture and animal husbandry in arid and semiarid areas. Using the northern piedmont

Spatiotemporal Dynamics and Drivers of Wind Erosion during 1990–2020 in the Yarlung Zangbo River Basin, Southern Tibetan Plateau

open access: yesLand, 2023
Wind erosion is recognized as one of the main environmental issues and seriously threatens ecosystem services in the Yarlung Zangbo River basin (YZRB), southern Tibetan Plateau. Exploring the spatiotemporal dynamics and drivers of wind erosion is crucial

Dynamics of soil wind erosion in the Mu Us sandy land (in northern China) affected by cropland reclamation from 2000 to 2020

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2023
In recent decades, the wind speed displayed an obvious declining trend in northern China. Under this background, large amounts of grassland and sandy land have been reclaimed into cropland in the Mu Us Sandy Land (MUSL), and whether cropland reclamation ...

Deciphering the impact of wind erosion on ecosystem services: An integrated framework for assessment and spatiotemporal analysis in arid regions

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2023
Wind erosion, a crucial disruptor of ecosystem health and stability, especially in arid regions, remains unincorporated in extensively utilized ecosystem services (ESs) quantification models such as InVEST.

Soil erosion modelling at European scale by using high resolution input layers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Soil erosion by water is one of the most widespread forms of soil degradation. Since soil erosion is difficult to measure at large scales, soil erosion models are a crucial estimation tool at regional, national and European levels. The high heterogeneity
