To clarify the response mechanisms of soil nematodes as bioindicators of ecosystem health to precipitation variations in loess hilly forests, this study investigated soil nematodes in pure Populus hopeiensis forests across different precipitation gra...
Groundwater potential mapping is an important prerequisite for evaluating the exploitation, utilization, and recharge of groundwater. The study uses BFT (best-first decision tree classifier), CART (classification and regression tree), FT (functional...
Extensive vegetation restoration projects have been widely implemented on the Loess Plateau, China, since 1998. In addition, increasing attention has been paid to the influence of revegetation on soil water. However, the response of the soil water co...
The Beiluo River Basin, situated in the central region of the Loess Plateau, frequently experiences landslide geological disasters, posing a severe threat to local lives and property. Thus, establishing a detailed database of historical landslides an...
Poverty is increasingly stressed in Payment for Ecosystem Services (PES) schemes, from targeting to outcomes. As the world’s largest PES scheme of its kind, the Sloping Land Conversion Program in China started its new stage (NSLCP), aiming to c...
Landslide susceptibility mapping (LSM) is an important element of landslide risk assessment, but the process often needs to span multiple platforms and the operation process is complex. This paper develops an efficient user-friendly toolbox including...
The selection of suitable tree species and the reasonable allocation of planting areas are important measures for improving soil quality. To evaluate the soil quality (SQ) and its driving factors of Pinus tabuliformis forests in loess hilly areas whe...
This study aims to investigate the role of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) in early prediction of response and survival following epithelial growth factor receptor (EGFR)–tyrosine kinase...
