Degraded versus restored rangeland states in Jordan – hillslope to small-catchment level implications on runoff and erosion
Over the past decades, migration, overgrazing and mismanagement transformed the Jordanian rangelands into degraded badlands. Almost bare and crusted soil surface conditions are interlinked with accelerated runoff, soil ...
Identification of potential areas for out-scaling sustainable land management options in West Asia, North Africa, and Central Asia
Water scarcity and land degradation are among the
most important factors affecting agricultural production and
sustainability in the West Asia and North Africa (WANA) region and
in Central Asia (CA). Various sustainable ...
Suitability of arid land rehabilitation technologies: simulation of water harvesting based solutions in Middle Eastern agro-pastures
The enhancement of Middle Eastern agro-pastures’ productivity through water harvesting originates from ancient technologies and indigenous knowledge. More recently, integrated watershed rehabilitation practices, such as ...
Restoring Degraded Rangelands in Jordan: Optimizing Mechanized Micro Water Harvesting Technique Using Rangeland Hydrology and Erosion Model (RHEM)
Jordan’s rangelands, the so called Badia, home of the Bedouins, are threatened through a combination of over-exploitation of the ecosystem services and a changing climate towards drier seasons and highly erratic rainfalls. ...
