Influences of conservation measures on runoff and sediment yield in different intra-event-based flood regimes in the Chabagou watershed

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
The Loess Plateau in China has suffered severe soil erosion. To control soil erosion, extensive conservation measures aimed at redistributing rainfall, hindering flow velocity and intercepting sediment were implemented on the Loess Plateau. To accurately

Single-Species Artificial Grasslands Decrease Soil Multifunctionality in a Temperate Steppe on the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau

open access: yesAgronomy, 2021
Artificial grasslands have been regarded as an effective method to improve grass production and quality, especially on the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau. Soil ecosystem multifunctionality (EMF) plays an important role in sustainable regional development. However,

Prediction of aboveground grassland biomass on the Loess Plateau, China, using a random forest algorithm

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Grasslands are an important component of terrestrial ecosystems that play a crucial role in the carbon cycle and climate change. In this study, we collected aboveground biomass (AGB) data from 223 grassland quadrats distributed across the Loess Plateau ...

Variations in Plant Water Use Efficiency Response to Manipulated Precipitation in a Temperate Grassland

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Water use efficiency (WUE) plays important role in understanding the interaction between carbon and water cycles in the plant-soil-atmosphere system. However, little is known regarding the impact of altered precipitation on plant WUE in arid and semi ...
