Investigation on Soil Erosion in North and South Slopes of Eastern Tianshan Mountain in Xinjiang Wei Autonomous Region
[Objective] Soil erosion characteristics and impact factors in north and south slopes of the Eastern Tianshan Mountains in Xinjiang Wei Autonomous Region were investigated and studied in order to provide scientific basis for the prevention and control of soil erosion.[Methods] In the north and south solpes of the Eastern Tianshan Mountain
14 survey units were selected to investigate the types and characteristics of soil erosion
land use types and vegetation growth status from June 25 to 30
2019.[Results] Soil erosion mainly occurred in grassland and construction land. Grassland degradation was serious and grazing led to scaly erosion and animal erosion. And
some areas were exposed to denudation
sapping and sheep path erosion. There were less land protection measures in construction
and gully erosion was the primary form.[Conclusion] Over grazing had led to slowing recovery of grassland ecosystems
and construction had destroyed the original ecosystem
causing serious artificial acceleration of erosion and seriously threatening the ecological security of the Tianshan region. It was urgent to carry out soil erosion monitoring and research on the basic data
strengthen the work of soil and water conservation
establish a reasonable grazing system
speed up the restoration of the ecosystem
reduce soil and water loss
and ensure the ecological safety and healthy development of Tianshan Mountains.
