Characteristics and Influencing Factors of Soil Shear Strength in Gully Erosion at Different Developmental Segments of Subalpine Meadows

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Subalpine meadows play important roles in biodiversity conservation and soil carbon sequestration, but gully erosion poses a serious threat to their ecological stability. Soil shear strength (τ) is a key mechanical parameter for evaluating gully stability and soil resistance to failure. However, the spatial variation in soil shear strength and
