Abstract:Water-conservation enhancement is a crucial objective of regional ecological restoration projects in arid and semiarid areas, and it is significantly influenced by land use/cover change (LUCC). The Grain for Green Project (GFGP) is a common strategy for ecological restoration. However, insufficient attention has been paid to the impact of reforestation patterns and the underlying surface characteristics on the effectiveness of GFGP in enhancing water conservation. In this study, a Soil and Water Assessment Too… Show more
