Biological soil crusts mitigate shallow landslide and erosion risks on loess slopes under intense dry-wet cycles: mechanisms and disaster prevention implications

open access: yesEnvironmental Earth Sciences
Abstract To address the high risk of shallow landslides and hydraulic erosion on Loess Plateau slopes induced by intense dry-wet cycles, this study explored the disaster mitigation effect and mechanism of biological soil crusts (BSCs) through indoor scaled slope model tests.
