Regional effects of vegetation restoration on water yield across the Loess Plateau, China
The general relationships between vegetation and water yield under different climatic regimes are well established at a small watershed scale in the past century. However, applications of these basic theories to evaluate the regional effects of land cover change on water resources remain challenging due to the complex interactions of vegetation and climatic variability and hydrologic processes ...

متن کاملEffects of landscape restoration on soil water storage and water use in the Loess Plateau Region, China
Large-scale vegetation restoration in China’s Loess Plateau has been initiated by the central government for controlling soil andwater losses in the past three decades. However, there is virtually no guidance for plant species selection for the restoration purpose. We investigated the effects of planting trees and shrubs, land-use conversions from croplands to pastures and native grasslands on ...
متن کاملSoil water storage capacity under chronosequence of revegetation in Yanhe watershed on the Loess Plateau, China
The relationship between vegetation and soil moisture deserves attention due to its scientific importance and practical applications. However, the effects of soil moisture on vegetation development and succession are poorly documented. Here we study soil water storage in Yanhe watershed at northern Shaanxi on five different land uses, namely shrubland, farmland, natural grassland, woodland, and...
متن کاملNatural Vegetation Restoration Is More Beneficial to Soil Surface Carbon Sequestration on Loess Plateau
The Loess Plateau of China is a unique geographical unit characterized by extensive loess distribution, serious soil erosion, low vegetation coverage and high soil carbonate content. Since the 1950s, the Chinese government has made great efforts to control soil erosion and restore vegetation, including large-scale tree plantation in the 1970s, integrated soil erosion control in the 1980s and 19...
