Improving Forage Crops for Semi-Arid Areas
Outlook on Agriculture, 1998In semi-arid areas, forage crops for grazing are suitable for extensive, marginal lands because they can sustain competitive meat or milk production, they protect against soil erosion risks, and they can form the basis of an alternative sustainable agriculture.

Arid and semi-arid ecosystems in South America are best illustrated by two desert regions, the Peruvian and Atacama Deserts of the Pacific coast and the Monte Desert of central Argentina. The caatinga of northeast Brazil is often described as semi-arid, but mostly receives 500–750 mm of annual rainfall and is better regarded as dry savanna. Small areas

Waste biorefinery in arid/semi-arid regions
Bioresource Technology, 2016The utilization of waste biorefineries in arid/semi-arid regions is advisable due to the reduced sustainable resources in arid/semi-arid regions, e.g. fresh water and biomass. This review focuses on biomass residues available in arid/semi-arid regions, palm trees residues, seawater biomass based residues (coastal arid/semi-arid regions), and the ...

Contribution of Semi-Arid Forests to the Climate System
Science, 2010The Long and Short of It Semi-arid forests cover close to 18% of Earth's land surface. If climate change were to stimulate carbon accumulation in these areas, resulting changes in the forests could both promote climate cooling and warming: On one hand, forest growth would draw CO 2 from the atmosphere ...

MITIGATION AND RECOVERY OF SEMI-ARID AND ARID PROVINCES IN CHINA
Acta Horticulturae, 2005China is the third largest Country (after Russia and Canada) extending from the West Pacific Ocean to the Tibet plateau, where the climate ranges from the monsoonal regime in the east to the extreme dryness in the west, and from tropical in the south to subarctic in the north.

Activation of ephemeral streams in semi-arid regions
2012An analysis of runoff generation through ephemeral streams in karst semi-arid areas is here presented. The analysis is based on a full 2D approach, integrating the hydrological and hydraulic models, in order to account first for the dynamic of catchment response to rainfall and activation of the streams, and then for the hydraulic behavior of the ...
