Effects of conservation tillage practices on winter wheat water-use efficiency and crop yield on the Loess Plateau, China
Ziyou Su,Jinsong Zhang,Wenliang Wu,D Cai,Junjie Lv,Guanghui Jiang,Jian Huang,Jun Gao,Roger Hartmann,Donald Gabriëls +9 more
TL;DR: In the semi-humid to arid loess plateau areas of North China, water is the limiting factor for rain-fed crop yields and conservation tillage has been proposed to improve soil and water conservation in these areas as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optimal windbreak design for wind-erosion control
Wim Cornelis,Donald Gabriëls +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a wind-tunnel study was conducted to find the optimal windbreak design in terms of its porosity, its distribution with height and the number of rows needed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Changes of soil enzyme activities under different tillage practices in the Chinese Loess Plateau
TL;DR: Comparatively higher enzyme activities were observed in the stages with vigorous vegetative growth of winter wheat than in stages with productive growth, indicating that seasonal fluctuations did not obscure effects associated with soil tillage practices and enzyme activities could reflect the effects of conversion of soil Tillage practices on soil quality.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enrichment of Organic Carbon in Sediment Transport by Interrill and Rill Erosion Processes
TL;DR: In this article, rill and interrill erosion processes on a silt loam soil were examined in laboratory rainfall and flume experiments, and it was found that rill erosion was nonselective, while for interrill degradation the enrichment ratio of organic carbon varied between 0.9 and 2.6 and was inversely related to the unit sediment discharge.
