Quantifying changes in the vulnerability of vegetation to various drought stresses different seasons is important for rational and effective ecological conservation restoration. However, its dynamics a changing environment are still unknown, quantitative attribution analysis has been rarely studied. To this end, study explored characteristics under Xinjiang conducted using random forest method....

The identification of land type multi-functionality is a basic tool for the organization, coordination, and configuration basin land, provides key criterion determining combination land-use functions status quo ecological environment in basin. However, feasible method system this purpose has not yet been established. Therefore, study, we construct production–living–ecological space (PLES) class...

Riparian phreatophytes in hyperarid areas face selection pressure from limiting groundwater availability and high transpiration demand. We examined whole-plant water use hydraulic traits Populus euphratica Tamarix ramosissima seedlings to understand how they adapt variations. These species coexist the Tarim River floodplain of western China. Measurements were performed on 3-year-old grown lysim...

In recent years, lithologic oil and gas reservoirs have become an important target in continental hydrocarbon-bearing basins. Geophysical prospecting technology using seismic data is indispensable tool for exploration. However, while previous work has paid much attention to the responses of (sandstones), depositional sequences composed sandstone–mudstone cycles are not well understood reservoir...
