In this research, a long-term (2014–2020) approach to quantify surface runoff and soil loss
generated by different land use and precipitation regimes on Pisha sandstone hillslopes …

Large-scale afforestation has seriously aggravated the consumption of soil water and
caused soil desiccation and even the dry soil layers, which has been restricting the survival …

Soil infiltrability controls precipitation input to soil and plays a crucial role in regulating soil
eco-hydrological processes and ecosystem production in water-limited areas worldwide …

Infiltration of precipitation is the main source of water for soil water replenishment in arid and
semiarid regions and plays a critical role in influencing the restoration of degraded …

Bioretention systems are one example of green stormwater infrastructure that may mitigate
the hydrologic impact of stormwater runoff. To improve water retention while maintaining …

Nitrogen (N) fertilizer application and atmospheric wet deposition have led to excessive N
input into the soil and nitrate leaching into groundwater, which has become a widespread …

Due to global changes and anthropogenic disturbances shrubs are widely encroaching into
alpine meadows, which may have profound impacts on the ecohydrological functioning of …

Root development can alter the structure of soil and its hydraulic properties, which in turn
can affect runoff generation processes. Although some experimental studies have examined …

Biological soil crust (BSC), as a groundcover, is widely intergrown with grass. The effects of
grass combined with BSCs on slope hydrology and soil erosion during rainfall are still …

In arid and semi-arid areas, unsuitable afforestation programs may cause soil water deficit
and even, in some cases, deep-soil desiccation and the subsequent death of part of the …
