TL;DR: The first public product of the Intergovernmental Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES) is its Conceptual Framework as discussed by the authors, which will underpin all IPBES functions and provide structure and comparability to the syntheses that will produce at different spatial scales, on different themes, and in different regions.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors study the semi-arid Loess Plateau in China, where the "Grain to Green" large-scale revegetation programme has been in operation since 1999.

TL;DR: In this paper, a q-statistic method is proposed to measure the degree of spatial stratified heterogeneity and to test its significance, and the q value is within [0, 1] (0 if a spatial stratification of heterogeneity is not significant, and 1 if there is a perfect spatial stratifying of heterogeneity).

TL;DR: The authors used an attribution approach to analyse 60 years of runoff and sediment load observations from the traverse of the Yellow River over China's Loess Plateau -the source of nearly 90% of its sediment load.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the land cover changes from 2000 to 2008 by satellite image interpretation and applied the Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) for the soil erosion control assessment for the same period with localized parameters.
