Variations in rare earth elements with environmental factors in lake surface sediments from 17 lakes in western ChinaJournal of Mountain Science - Tập 18 - Trang 1811-1822 - 2021
Ding-ding Du, Liu-qin Chen, Yong-hui Bai, Hai-ping Hu
Numerous lakes in western China are excellent sites for understanding environmental change. However, what dominates rare earth element (REE) variations are still under debate in the lake environmental research. In this study, we selected 28 surface sediment samples from 17 lakes (i.e. large-scale lakes, small water bodies, etc.) in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and Xinjiang area. These samples were an...... hiện toàn bộ

This study aims to assess the natural and cultivated plant species in 26 Bedouin farms in Saint Katherine Protectorate (SKP), identify their soil and water characteristics, and assess the suitability of these farms for the cultivation of some wild medicinal plants. The farms were selected to represent wide wadis with deep sand and clay deposits, gorge-like wadis covered with rock fragments of diff...... hiện toàn bộ
Effect of mixture sowing on biomass allocation in the artificially-planted pastures, Southeastern TibetanJournal of Mountain Science - Tập 16 - Trang 54-63 - 2019
Fan Chen, Hao Xia, Xiao-jing Qin
Artificial planting is an important measure to promote the restoration of degraded grassland and protect the ecological environment. The objectives of the current study were to investigate the allocation pattern between aboveground biomass (AGB) and belowground biomass (BGB) in different seeding types of artificially-planted pastures. We explored the variation in biomass and the relationship betwe...... hiện toàn bộ
Frequency–magnitude of landslides affected by the 27–29 November 2017 Tropical Cyclone Cempaka in Pacitan, East JavaJournal of Mountain Science - Tập 17 - Trang 773-786 - 2020

Tropical cyclone (TC) Cempaka which occurred on 27–29 November 2017 has caused floods, landslides, and strong winds in certain areas of Java Island. Pacitan Regency was the most severely affected by TC Cempaka. The landslide frequency–area distribution curve of event inventory i.e. TC Cempaka can help to understand landslide susceptibility, hazard, vulnerability, and risk. Landslides were identifi...... hiện toàn bộ
Dynamic response mechanism and precursor characteristics of gneiss rockburst under different initial burial depthsJournal of Mountain Science - - 2024
Dongqiao Liu, Jie Sun, Wen Meng, Manchao He, Chongyuan Zhang, Ran Li, Binghao Cao
To investigate the influence mechanism of geostress on rockburst characteristics, three groups of gneiss rockburst experiments were conducted under different initial geostress conditions. A high-speed photography system and acoustic emission (AE) monitoring system were used to monitor the entire rockburst process in real time. The experimental results show that when the initial burial depth increa...... hiện toàn bộ
Influence of anthropogenic activities on landslide susceptibility: A case study in Solan district, Himachal Pradesh, IndiaJournal of Mountain Science - Tập 20 - Trang 429-447 - 2023
Sangeeta, S. K. Singh
Landslides in the Himalayan region are primarily controlled by natural parameters, including rainfall, seismic activity, and anthropogenic parameters, such as the construction of large-scale projects like road development, tunneling and hydroelectric power projects and climate change. The parameters which are more crucial among these are a matter of scientific study and analysis. This research, ta...... hiện toàn bộ
Rainfall and tillage impacts on soil erosion of sloping cropland with subtropical monsoon climate — A case study in hilly purple soil area, ChinaJournal of Mountain Science - Tập 12 - Trang 134-144 - 2015
Jia-liang Tang, Xun-qiang Cheng, Bo Zhu, Mei-rong Gao, Tao Wang, Xi-feng Zhang, Pei Zhao, Xiang You
Under global warming, storm events tend to intensify, particularly in monsoon-affected regions. As an important agricultural area in China, the purple soil region in the Sichuan Basin, where it has a prevailing monsoon climate, is threatened by serious soil erosion. Tillage operations alter runoff and soil erosion processes on croplands by changing the physical properties of the soil surface. To c...... hiện toàn bộ
