Agricultural reclamation in coastal zones is effective for mitigating population pressure on the food supply. Soil properties are important factors influencing crop production in reclaimed coastal lands.
Changes in vegetation influence the function of grassland ecosystems. A degradation of the vegetation type has been found from high to low altitudes in Guanshan grassland in the order of forest grassland (FG) shrub grassland (SG) herb grassland (HG).
Compacted soils affect global crop productivity and environmental quality.
While empowering the revitalization of Chinese historic districts, the rapid development of the tourism industry may also endanger local cultures and streetscapes.
Peer review is the driving force of journal development, and reviewers are gatekeepers who ensure that Land maintains its standards for the high quality of its published papers [...]
