The rehabilitation of sandy desertified land in various dryland ecosystems by different management practices has a great potential to increase aggregate stability and improve soil quality. However, plants in general may have a different ability to sustain soil. The objective was to determine the effects of reclamation practices including Haloxylon ammodendron and Atriplex canescens plantation o...

We tested an efficient, easily and economically manufactured wind-transported particle collector of our own design, called a multidirectional trap (MDt), on fine-tilled Anthrosols. Results from the logs nine vaned masts, each with four MDt collectors at different heights, showed clear predominance northeast south winds. After analyzing sediment transport rates their balance, we found that sedim...

The reclamation area on ex-coal mining land is very vulnerable to erosion. Soil vulnerability comes from the physical properties of soil, ease with which it erodes, and topographical conditions. Erosion occurs in open areas little overgrown vegetation. However, this condition course a fundamental consideration factors that influence This type research descriptive quantitative research, obtained...
