Optimized Nitrogen Application Increases Soil Water Extraction by Changing in-Season Maize Root Morphology and Distribution in Rainfed Farmland

open access: yesAgronomy, 2020
The proper promotion of a deep root system is important for maize cultivation to improve water use efficiency in the arid and semi-arid Loess Plateau.

Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi Alleviate Low Phosphorus Stress in Maize Genotypes with Contrasting Root Systems

open access: yesPlants, 2022
Soil available phosphorus (P) is one of the main factors limiting plant growth and yield. This study aimed to determine the role of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) in P-use efficiency in two maize genotypes with contrasting root systems in response to

Photosynthesis and nutrient-use efficiency in response to N and P addition in three dominant grassland species on the semiarid Loess Plateau

open access: yesPhotosynthetica, 2020
Understanding the ecophysiological and nutrient-use strategies of dominant species is important for clarifying plant growth and an ecological process in their community under unbalanced N and P inputs. This study investigated effects of N and P addition [

Stratigraphy and lithology of the loess deposits in eastern Srem, Serbia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Eolian loess sediments in the eastern Srem area, the youngest Pleistocene deposits, occur either as a loess plateau, or as a slope-type of loess, formed on the slopes of the Fruška Gora mountain.

Effects of Driving Factors on Forest Aboveground Biomass (AGB) in China’s Loess Plateau by Using Spatial Regression Models

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Forests are the main body of carbon sequestration in terrestrial ecosystems and forest aboveground biomass (AGB) is an important manifestation of forest carbon sequestration.

A uniform isotopic and chemical signature of dust exported from Patagonia: Rock sources and occurrence in southern environments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Patagonia is considered to be the most important source of dust from South America that is deposited in surrounding areas, and we present here a systematic Sr and Nd isotopic study of sediment currently being exported.

Large-scale soil organic carbon mapping based on multivariate modelling: The case of grasslands on the Loess Plateau [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The Loess Plateau is considered one of the world's regions with severe soil erosion. Grasslands are widely distributed on the Loess Plateau, accounting for approximately 40% of the total area.

Changes in the soil organic carbon balance on China’s cropland during the last two decades of the 20th century [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Agro-ecosystems play an important role in regulating global changes caused by greenhouse gas emissions. Restoration of soil organic carbon (SOC) in agricultural soils can not only improve soil quality but also influence climate change and agronomic ...

The spatial-temporal patterns of Asian summer monsoon precipitation in response to Holocene insolation change: a model-data synthesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Highlights: • Slice and transient simulations of Holocene climate change were performed. • Spatial–temporal patterns of Holocene Asian summer precipitation are investigated. • A tripole pattern of summer precipitation can be seen over monsoonal Asia.

Spatially variable provenance of the Chinese Loess Plateau [PDF]

open access: yesGeology, 2021
AbstractLoess sequences of the Chinese Loess Plateau (CLP) compose one of the most complete Neogene–Quaternary terrestrial paleoclimatic archives. Understanding the CLP's sediment sources is critical to tracing Asian aridification, atmospheric circulation patterns, and Asian monsoon evolution.
