Differential response of plant transpiration to uptake of rainwater-recharged soil water for dominant tree species in the semiarid Loess Plateau [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2022 Establishing whether uptake of rainwater-recharged soil water (RRS) can increase plant transpiration in response to rainfall pulses requires an investigation to evaluate plant adaptability, especially in water-limited regions where rainwater is the only ...

Global vulnerability of soil ecosystems to erosion [PDF]
Landscape Ecology, 2020 Abstract Context Soil erosion is one of the main threats driving soil degradation across the globe with important impacts on crop yields, soil biota, biogeochemical cycles, and ultimately human nutrition. Objectives Here, using an empirical model, we present a global and temporally explicit assessment of soil erosion risk according to recent (2001 ...

Spatial differentiation of gully clusters based on the regional scale: an example from northeastern China [PDF]
PeerJ, 2020 Gully erosion represents a serious environmental threat around the world, but their spatial distribution law are unclear at the regional scale. To quantitatively characterize the spatial distribution model of gullies and determine the regularity of ...

Rainfall Erosivity in Soil Erosion Processes
Water, 2020 Regional studies on the erosive power of rainfall patterns are still limited and the actual impacts that may follow on erosional and sedimentation processes are poorly understood. Given the several interrelated challenges of environmental management, it is also not always unclear what is relevant for the development of adaptive and integrated ...

The distribution of organic carbon fractions in a typical loess-paleosol profile and its paleoenvironmental significance [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 Background The loess-paleosol sequence on the Loess Plateau has been considered an important paleoclimatic archive to study global climatic and environmental changes in the Quaternary. So far, little attention has been paid to the characteristics of soil
