Abstract:
Assessing vegetation changes in alpine arid and fragile ecosystems is imperative for informed ecological restoration initiatives and adaptive ecosystem management. Previous studies primarily employed the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) to reveal vegetation dynamics, ignoring the spatial heterogeneity alterations caused by bare soil. In this study, we used a comprehensive analysis of NDVI and its spatial heterogeneity to examine the vegetation changes across the Three-River Headwaters Region (TRHR) over the past two decades. A random forest model was used to elucidate the underlyi

Abstract:
Aksu City, located in the southern region of Xinjiang, China, holds the position of being the fifth largest city in Xinjiang. It holds significant ecological importance as a vital functional region for the management of desertification in China. To safeguard the ecological security of Xinjiang and preserve the ecological stability of Aksu City, it is crucial to examine the relationship between ecological service value and ecological risk, as well as the geographical and temporal changes in land use characteristics in Aksu City.

Abstract:
AbstractThe authors explore a new approach to monitoring of desertification that is based on use of results on the relation between albedo and surface temperature for the Sonoran Desert in northwestern Mexico. The criteria of predominance of radiation by using the threshold value of Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) and Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) were determined. The radiation mechanism for regulating the temperature of the surface and the definition of threshold values for AVHRR and MODIS NDVI have an obje

Abstract:
This paper aims to analyze the distribution patterns of the Yunnan, Guangxi, and Guizhou rocky desertification area, and provide efficient protection and development strategies. This region has a complex geographical environment, and it is distinguished by hosting China’s largest ethnic minority population and the highest concentration of autonomous ethnic counties among contiguous impoverished areas, with numerous traditional villages. Thus, it is significant to conduct a comprehensive study of traditional villages within this domain, with a particular focus on their centralized preservation

Abstract:
Following an operational framework derived from earlier research, our study research estimates the specific contribution of biophysical and socioeconomic factors to soil sensitivity to degradation at two-time points (Early-1990s and Early-2010s) in Italy, a Mediterranean hotspot for desertification risk. A total of 34 variables associated (directly or, at least, indirectly) with different processes of soil degradation (erosion, salinization, sealing, contamination, and compaction) and climate change were considered here, delineating the predominant (underlying) cause (i.e., biophysical or soci

Abstract:
Guangxi is among China’s regions most severely affected by karst rocky desertification (KRD). Over the past two decades, global climate change and human activities have jointly led to significant changes in the extent and intensity of KRD in Guangxi. Given this context, it is crucial to comprehensively analyze the spatiotemporal evolution of KRD in Guangxi and its driving forces. This study proposed a novel three-dimensional feature space model for monitoring KRD in Guangxi. We then applied transition matrices, dynamic degree indices, and landscape metrics to analyze the spatiotemporal evoluti

Abstract:
The determining factor in the spatial development of agriculture was still natural conditions, however, in many regions there was a constant violation of the interaction of socio-economic and natural factors that form a relatively stable combination of dominant and complementary types of agriculture and its individual sub-sectors. Despite certain positive aspects in the spatial organization of agriculture in a few regions, which has recently begun to take into account the bioclimatic potential of the country's territory to a greater extent, its location and specialization still do not fully me

Abstract Investigating the spatiotemporal evolution of vegetation and its response mechanisms to natural and anthropogenic elements is crucial for regional vegetation restoration and ecological preservation. The Mu Us Sandy Land (MUSL), which is situated in the semi-arid zone of northwestern China adjacent to the Loess Plateau, has been at the forefront of desertification and oasis formation over the past two millennia.

Abstract:
Known as the “Ear of the Earth”, Lop Nor has become one of China’s four largest uninhabited areas due to environmental changes. Lop Nor is rich in mineral resources, including potassium salt, which has good quality and has been largely mined since 2002. This study focuses on the surrounding area of the Lop Nor Potash Salt Field, which covers an area of 80,036.39 square kilometers, spanning from 39.29° N to 41.84° N and 88.92° E to 92.26° E. The research is based on 1 km resolution precipitation, potential evapotranspiration, temperature data, and 250 m resolution NDVI data spanning 2002–2022.
