Integrating vegetation suitability in sustainable revegetation for the Loess Plateau, China

Cong Wang et al.

Summary: Revegetation is crucial for ecosystem restoration, desertification prevention, and climate change mitigation globally. In the Loess Plateau, revegetation programs have been conducted to prevent erosion, with a study showing that Robinia pseudoacacia is more sensitive to water stress than Stipa bungeana. The predicted shrinking of the suitable area for R. pseudoacacia in the future highlights the importance of considering vegetation suitability in planning and designing revegetation projects to address environmental degradation and climate change impacts effectively.

Effects of anthropogenic revegetation on the water and carbon cycles of a desert steppe ecosystem

Lingtong Du et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the effects of anthropogenic revegetation on water and carbon cycles in a typical desert steppe in China. The results showed that anthropogenic revegetation intensified the carbon cycle and increased carbon storage in the ecosystem, but also increased water consumption and decreased soil water storage. These undesired outcomes should be given more attention in ecological restoration programs.
