China launched the National Desert Park (NDP) initiative over a decade ago, making this an opportune time to assess its effectiveness. This paper examined one of pilot parks, Inner Mongolia Ongniud Bolongke NDP, as case study. Questionnaire surveys were completed by 190 residents and visitors in 2023 whether park designation development achieving desired improvements human well-being. Respondents also provided feedback on management status their attitudes toward NDP policy. Responses...
Previous field research on the Horqin Sandy Land (China), which has suffered from severe desertification during recent decades, revealed how land use a sand-dune topography affects both degradation and restoration. This study aimed to depict spatial distribution of local in order shed more light previous findings regarding policies broader scale. We performed following analyses with Panchromatic Remote-sensing Instrument for Stereo Mapping (PRISM) Advanced Visible Near Infrared Radiometer...
In the pursuit of sustainable national park management, managers need to understand interests and activities their diverse visitors in order conserve natural environment offer a better visitor experience. This study aimed examine effectiveness using non-geotagged social media data from posts by for management comparison with geotagged data, which has been studied more extensively. We compared (1) visitors’ sociodemographic characteristics between users through an onsite survey Nikko National...
Soil nutrient buildup is a key process in nutrient-poor arid and semiarid regions. However, our knowledge of the factors that control soil these systems still limited. An experiment was set up carried out for five half years order to investigate how precipitation other site buildup. Topsoil carbon (C), nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K) derived from litter (soil buildup) were tracked twice year at two sites differing terms climate soils (Urat: Naiman: semiarid, both Inner Mongolia)....
Geotagged social media data have been used widely for visitor monitoring in protected areas. The might, however, over or underestimate visitors from specific countries due to nationality bias, i.e., differences between of actual versus those who post on media. This study aimed quantify bias monitoring. We conducted a questionnaire survey Nikko National Park, Japan. Questions covered the and their usage media, other attributes behavior. Foreign had significantly different behaviors compared...
Rangelands located in arid and semi-arid region are particularly vulnerable to climate change. The objective of this research project is assess vulnerability its impacts on socio-economy pastoral society formulate adaptation options for the selected rangelands. analysis process consisted (1) using geospatial techniques vulnerability; (2) statistical correlation impact grazing societies’ socio-economic conditions; (3) qualitative document (QDA) evaluate policy documents; (4) engaging...
Nurse plants can form islands of fertility to rehabilitate degraded land. Areas outside plant canopies may not recover as much areas under canopies, but the spatial extent nurse plants' beneficial impacts is fully understood. This study aimed quantify and temporal aggregate effects (zones influence) shrubs compared with trees planted for land rehabilitation in a desertified region Inner Mongolia, China. We conducted vegetation surveys pairs replicate 20 × m plots, each subdivided into 100...
In recent years, Mongolia has witnessed an increase in not only wheat fields, which have been present for a long time, but also rapeseed fields. This led to increasing concerns about soil degradation due inappropriate cultivation. study aims determine the impacts of production on water storage Mongolia. The content and matric potential were measured fields adjacent steppe rangeland five including crop fallow storages compared. results demonstrated that below root zone field both rangelands...
