Spatio-temporal Explicit Mapping and Quantification of Ecosystem Services Provision Area: An Application for Wind Wrosion Prevention Service in Northern China

Ecological Indicators, 2023
Many ecosystem service (ES) items, such as the wind erosion prevention service (WEPS), have spatially separated service provision and benefit areas (SPA & SBA), which are connected by directional ecosystem services flows (ESF).

Enhanced Wind Erosion Control by Alfalfa Grassland Compared to Conventional Crops in Northern China

Agronomy
Wind erosion poses a significant challenge to agricultural sustainability in Northern China’s arid regions. This study investigated the effectiveness of alfalfa grassland versus conventional cropland in controlling wind erosion across nine study sites in

Soil Erosion in Taiwan

Agriculture, 2023
Soil erosion is a complex process involving material detachment, transportation (mainly by water, occasionally by wind), and eventual deposition when energy wanes. Human activities like tillage and construction can exacerbate soil erosion.

Potential Reduction of Spatiotemporal Patterns of Water and Wind Erosion with Conservation Tillage in Northeast China

Land
Conservational tillage (NT) is widely recognized globally for its efficacy in mitigating soil loss due to wind and water erosion. However, a systematic large-scale estimate of NT’s impact on soil loss reduction in Northeast, China’s primary granary ...
