  • Stress-resistant response of forest and grassland vegetation to karst desertification in North China Karst based on plant functional trait networks

    Open Access•Zhaohui Zhang, Z J Zhang et al.•ARTICLE•Trees Forests and People•2026

    Forest and grassland vegetation (FGV) established for windbreak and sand fixation are under severe threat from the karst desertification (KD) in North China Karst. However, the unique ecological strategies of plant functional traits (PFTs) in FGV under the harsh KD environment remain poorly understood. Therefore, this study focused on dominant FGV species in a typical KD area of North China, identified trait spectra, examined shifts in ecological…

  • The Spatiotemporal Evolution and Driving Factors of Ecological Security Across Different Karst Landforms in Southern China

    Open Access•Haijun Tang, Kangning Xiong et al.•ARTICLE•Land Degradation and Development•2026

    Ecological security (ES) is essential for regional sustainable development. The Southern China Karst (SCK), characterized by fragile ecosystems and intense human‐land conflicts, plays a vital role in maintaining national ecological barriers and regional ecological balance. However, existing studies mainly focus on the entire region or single landform types, often neglecting heterogeneity among karst geomorphological types. This study integrates e…

  • Trade‐Offs/Synergies and Drivers of Ecosystem Service Sustainability at Multiple Scales

    Open Access•Yi Chen, Kangning Xiong et al.•ARTICLE•Land Degradation and Development•2025

    Ecosystem services (ES) are interconnected with various aspects of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDG). Understanding the status of ecosystem services sustainability (ESS) is crucial for achieving optimal ecosystem management. However, the understanding of the state, relationships, and driving mechanisms of ESS across scales remains limited. The essence of ESS is that the natural supply of ES meets current social demand without…

  • Ecosystem Services Supply‐Demand Mismatch and Their Drivers in Highly Spatially Heterogeneous South China Karst Ecoregions

    Open Access•Yi Chen, Kangning Xiong et al.•ARTICLE•Land Degradation and Development•2025

    Understanding the issues of natural capital, group consumption, and the role of internal and external factors in discussions on the sustainability of ecosystem services (ES) can help to realize sustainable socio‐ecological system management. However, previous studies have complemented ecological management practices from a holistic or ES supply perspective, with little consideration of spatial and temporal differences in supply–demand mismatches …

  • Impact of ecological restoration on ecosystem service trade‐offs

    Open Access•Shihao Zhang, Kangning Xiong et al.•ARTICLE•Land Degradation and Development•2023

    Ecological restoration programmes (ERP) contribute to greening and regulation service improvement. However, whether greening exacerbates the social‐ecosystem trade‐offs in a degraded ecoregion remains unclear. In this study, we chose South China karst, a global hotspot of greening (improvement of vegetation), as a case‐study. First, we analyzed the degree of greening in different ecoregions and the contribution of landscape to greening during 200…

  • Evaluation and prediction of ecological environment of Karst World Heritage Sites based on Google Earth Engine

    Open Access•Ning Zhang, Kangning Xiong et al.•ARTICLE•Environmental Research Letters•2023

    The results show that: (1) the contribution rate of the four ecological indicators on the first principal component (PC1) is more than 90%. The construction of RSEI based on PC1 is applicable in Karst World Nature Heritage Sites (WNHS) and can be used to monitor and evaluate the spatial and temporal variation characteristics of ecological environment. (2) The mean values of RSEI of Libo-Huanjiang heritage site during 2000, 2007, 2013 and 2020 wer…

  • Hydrogeochemical Response of Cave Drips to Precipitation during Rainfall in a Karst Desertification Region

    Open Access•Xiaoxi Lyu, Yuan Li et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2022

    Exploring the hydrogeochemistry of cave drip water and its response to precipitation events in karst rocky desertification regions is of great significance to the paleoenvironment reconstruction of the karst desertification process using speleothem. We selected three perennial drip sites in the Shijiangjun Cave, located in Guizhou Province, Southwest China, and carried out high-frequency monitoring and sampling during two rainfalls from 22 to 25 …

  • Effects of Landscape Type Change on Spatial and Temporal Evolution of Ecological Assets in a Karst Plateau-Mountain Area

    Open Access•Cheng He, Kangning Xiong et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2022

    The rocky desertification control project in karst areas exacerbates the transfer of landscape types, changes the ecosystem structure and function, and has a significant impact on ecological assets. How to analyze the relationship between landscape type shifts and the spatial and temporal evolution of ecological assets is one of the key questions that need to be addressed to achieve the goal of overall improvement in ecosystem quality and sustain…

  • Soil Organic Carbon Distribution and Its Response to Soil Erosion Based on EEM-Parafac and Stable Carbon Isotope, a Field Study in the Rocky Desertification Control of South China Karst

    Open Access•Xinwen Wang, Ziqi Liu et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2022

    Ecological restoration plays an important role in enhancing carbon sequestration ability in karst areas, and soil organic matter is one of the main carbon reservoirs in karst key zones. The serious soil erosion in karst areas leads to the loss of soil organic matter (SOM). However, the distribution characteristics of SOM and its response mechanism to soil erosion in the process of rocky desertification control have rarely been reported. In this s…

  • The Development of Rural Residents' Sense of Place in an Ecological Restoration Area

    Open Access•Yue Zhou, Fangjuan Du et al.•ARTICLE•Mountain Research and Development•2022

    Sense of place and environmental problems have received increased attention in recent years; however, there is limited understanding of the dynamics of sense of place under gradual environmental changes. Using fieldwork and in-depth interviews, we explored the changes in rural residents' sense of place during the processes of ecological degradation and restoration in Huajiang Gorge, China. Our findings show that residents' sense of place is dynam…

  • Characteristics of and Influencing Factors of Hydrochemistry and Carbon/Nitrogen Variation in the Huangzhouhe River Basin, a World Natural Heritage Site

    Open Access•Chenpeng Hu, Ziqi Liu et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2021

    In karst areas, the characteristics of water chemistry and carbon and nitrogen are of great significance to basic research. The contents of Ca 2+ , Mg 2+ , K + , Na + , HCO 3 - , SO 4 2- , NO 3 - , Cl - , dissolved organic carbon (DOC), and total nitrogen (TN) in water samples from 18 rivers and 14 springs in the Huangzhouhe River Basin were determined. The results showed that the water chemistry type in the Huangzhouhe River Basin is HCO 3 -Ca-M…
