Scientists discuss the impacts of desertification and ways to increase soil productivity to improve food security in Mexico.
10 sie 2021 · Desertification can be well predicted by coupling regression and CA-Markov methods. Central Asia (CA) is a core area of global desertification, but the effect of the intensifying “global greening” policy on the desertification process under global warming scenarios in CA remains unclear.
1 kwi 2024 · In Central Asia, desertification remains a major threat to the ecosystems of countries such as Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, and Tajikistan. Our study indicates that the trend of desertification in this region is intensifying, aligning with findings by researchers like Miao et al. (2015).
Discover the online version of the Atlas. From here it is possible to read the World Atlas of Desertification and explore our interactive maps.
This atlas represents the current stage of our understanding of desertification, its extent and its possible solutions. One of the clearest ways to depict a global problem is to show it in an atlas.
