Microorganisms Control Litter Decomposition and Drive Grassland Soil C Stabilization by Regulating Exoenzymes

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 2, June 2026.
Grazing exclusion increased the percentage of litter‐derived C incorporation into both labile and stable SOC pools because of the higher litter quantity and microbial activities than that in the grazed grasslands. ABSTRACT Litter decomposition and microbial activity are important factors affecting soil organic carbon (SOC) sequestration in the ...

Estimating ecological indicators of karst rocky desertification by linear spectral unmixing method

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Earth Observation and Geoinformation, 2014
AbstractCoverage rates of vegetation and exposed bedrock are two key indicators of karst rocky desertification. In this study, the abundances of vegetation and exposed rock were retrieved from a hyperspectral Hyperion image using linear spectral unmixing method. The results were verified using the spectral indices of karst rocky desertification (KRDSI)

Differential Health Impacts of Short‐Term Particulate Matter Exposure in Arid and Semi‐Arid Regions: A Scoping Review

open access: yesGeoHealth, Volume 10, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Particulate matter (PM) exposure is a leading risk factor for cardiovascular and respiratory morbidity and mortality across the world. While arid and semi‐arid regions account for more than 40% of terrestrial land, there is a paucity of research investigating the relationship between PM exposure and health outcomes or how risk varies across ...
