Impacts of land use on soil carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus in the Eastern Qilian Mountains. by Shizhen Xu, Chunli Wang, Junju Zhou, Haihua Shan, Bingxing Li, Wei Shi, Dongxia Zhang, Guofeng Zhu, Xuemei Yang, Wei Wei, Haiyan Ma

“…The dynamics and balance of soil carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus significantly affect soil microbial activity and plants' nutrient absorption and utilization. Understanding how different land-use types and climate fluctuations influence soil carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus forms the basis for regional land-use optimization, scientific management, and enhancement of ecosystem service functions.This paper continuously collected soil samples from forestland, grassland, and cropland in the Binggou River Basin on the northern slope of the eastern section of the Qilian Mountains during 2018-2019. …”

“Locality – Adaptation” Research of Hydropower Resettlement Communities in the Jinsha River Basin: A Case Study of Ludila Hydropower Station by Fang WANG, Zhuoqi LI, Haoyi XU, Jiaqi YAN

“…Through multi-source data fusion (including remote sensing, demographic statistics, and compensation records) and field investigations, the research quantitatively analyzes the “locality – adaptation” reconstruction process of resettlement communities across the three spatial dimensions of living, production, and cultural spaces.Results1) Land cover evolution: Water storage of hydropower station inundates 37.12 km2 of land (including 21.61 km² of high-quality cultivated land), resulting in a loss of 43.68% of settlement production space. 2) Adjustment of architectural space: 65.8% of dwellings in the original villages are traditional timber-earth buildings with a tile roof, which adapt to the climate environment of concentrated rainfall and sufficient sunshine in the Jinsha River Basin. 48.7% of the resettlement sites adopt unified flat roof planning, and 51.3% realize functional optimization through self-construction or renovation, with the average renovation area reaching 230.9 m2. 3) Transformation of livelihood system: The annual compensation mechanism only restores 15.79% of the cultivated land allocation before resettlement, and the proportion of compensation income drops from 82.71% in the initial stage of relocation to 33.15% after long-term resettlement, driving the adjustment of crop structure to high value-added cash crops. 4) Cultural space reconstruction: In the context of the disappearance of traditional water transport functions, the three cultural relics reconstructed in different places show a symbolic turn. …”

Relationship between ecological spatial network and vegetation carbon use efficiency in the Yellow River Basin, China by Chenglong Xu, Xiang Chen, Qiang Yu, Buyanbaatar Avirmed, Jikai Zhao, Wei Liu, Weijie Sun

“…Subsequently, the interrelationship between topological metrics and vegetation CUE was analyzed, and optimization strategies were proposed based on the significance of the structure and function. The findings revealed that: (1) Vegetation CUE exhibited a spatially decreasing trend from the western to eastern regions, with spatial patterns correlated with vegetation types, temperature, and precipitation distribution; (2) The ecological spatial network demonstrated a denser configuration in the upper and middle reaches and a sparser and shorter pattern in the lower reaches, with seamless connectivity among all regions; (3) Significant correlations were observed between topological metrics and vegetation CUE, prompting the adoption of ecological construction and protection measures when functional importance is deficient, and enhancing the connectivity of ecological sources through the augmentation of ecological corridors when structural importance is lacking. …”
