Soil and water loss from the Loess Plateau in China
Hui Shi,Mingan Shao +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, problems and measures for the comprehensive control of soil and water loss in the Loess Plateau are proposed and a guide for the reconstruction of ecological and economic development in the region is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI
Soil moisture decline due to afforestation across the Loess Plateau, China
TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper analyzed the variations in soil moisture content (SMC) following the conversion of croplands into forests in the Loess Plateau and showed that the depth-averaged SMC was much lower under forest than under cropland.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impacts of land use and plant characteristics on dried soil layers in different climatic regions on the Loess Plateau of China
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated and compared the impacts of soil type, land use and plant characteristics within each of the three climatic regions (arid, semi-arid and semihumid) of the Loess Plateau of China.
Journal ArticleDOI
Understanding water deficit stress-induced changes in the basic metabolism of higher plants – biotechnologically and sustainably improving agriculture and the ecoenvironment in arid regions of the globe
TL;DR: Modern agriculturally sustainable development must be combined with plant physiological measures in the field, on the basis of which post-genomics and metabolomics have further practical prospects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Soil desiccation in the Loess Plateau of China
TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors proposed that proper types of vegetation should be selected according to rainfall and soil water conditions, and the control of vegetation density and productivity should be considered together with soil-water conservation measures.
