Mapping China's Soil Erosion Danger Zones to Safeguard National Security
The article discusses how China is facing serious soil erosion issues. To address this, a national ecological security pattern for soil erosion was created. This pattern helps identify areas at risk of soil erosion across China and suggests timely actions to prevent it. The researchers used factors like precipitation, vegetation, slope, and soil type to evaluate soil erosion risk. By using ArcGIS, they developed maps showing different levels of soil erosion risk. The study also proposed initial strategies to control soil erosion.
