The Spatio-Temporal Disparities of Areas Benefitting from the Wind Erosion Prevention Service [PDF]
International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2018 Ecosystem services are closely linked to human welfare. The flow of ecosystem service can establish spatio-temporal relationships between ecosystem service provision areas (SPAs) and service beneficiary areas (SBAs). In this study, the Hybrid Single Particle Lagrangian Integrated Trajectory (HYSPLIT) model was used to simulate the spatial flow path of ...

Evaluation of Kubuqi Desert Wind Erosion Prevention Service and drivers of the actual wind erosion studies Based on RWEQ Model from 2000 to 2022 [PDF]
PLoS ONEEcosystem service research is essential to identify the contribution of the ecosystem to human welfare. As an important ecological barrier zone, the Kubuqi Desert supports the use of a crucial wind erosion prevention service (WEPS) to improve the ecological environment quality.

Spatial Heterogeneity of Driving Factors of Wind Erosion Prevention Services in Northern China by Large-Scale Human Land-Use Management [PDF]
Land, 2022 Large-scale human land-use management is an effective method for ecosystem restoration and wind erosion prevention service (WEPS) improvement. However, the spatial differences of driving factors and the feedback in subsequent management have received ...

Evaluation of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau Wind Erosion Prevention Service Based on RWEQ Model
Sustainability, 2022 Ecosystem service research is essential to identify the contribution of the ecosystem to human welfare. As an important ecological barrier zone, the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP) supports the use of a crucial wind erosion prevention service (WEPS) to improve the ecological environment quality.

Ecological Indicators, 2020 Abstract As an important “buffer” to slow down the expansion of desertification, ecological land can provide wind erosion prevention service (WEPS), which is closely related to regional ecological security and human well-being. Previous studies have focused on the response of WEPS to land use change, to a certain extent, would easily cause ...
