“…It is well documented that vegetation in the riparian zones provides stability to the riverbanks and water flow control, regulates the temperature, and provides suitable habitats for aquatic life, in the form of coarse and fine woody debris (Khan et al, 2001;Shields et al, 2003;Tullos and Neumann, 2006). The hydrological approach of this criterion contributes to the reestablishment of the landscape as a whole (functions and structure) and, is in accordance with the modern context of forest restoration (Wang et al, 2007). This way, the highest priority levels were associated with proximity to the surface water.…”

“…Rehabilitation programs for the reduction of soil erosion can encourage the conversion of cropland to forest and orchards (Cao et al, 2009;Trac et al, 2007). However, one of the assumptions of such conversion programs is that by simply planting trees, erosion processes will be arrested (Trac et al, 2007;Wang et al, 2007;Weyerhaeuser et al, 2005). Thus, trees have been planted for cropping e.g.…”

“…Many factors have shaped the outcomes of ecological restoration in this area e.g. climate, soil erosion, micro-morphology, human activities, geo-hazards, and soil properties (Rodríguez Rodríguez et al, 2005;Wang et al, 2007;Lin et al, 2006). Soil properties are the basis of vegetation restoration and could reveal the driving mechanism of vegetation retrogressive succession, but to our knowledge, characteristics of soil property changes in severely earthquake-affected areas are still poorly understood and undocumented is a notable exception).…”
