The Joint Effects of Precipitation Gradient and Afforestation on Soil Moisture across the Loess Plateau of China

Understanding the dependence of soil moisture changes following afforestation on the precipitation gradient and afforested vegetation types is crucial for improving ongoing afforestation projects, and to guide future restoration strategies in water-limited regions. For this study, we characterized a...
