| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We aimed to develop new revegetation measures to facilitate restoration of vegetation which can be utilized sustainably and examined the applicability of land and vegetation restoration method by using native forage species as target species of restoration in the degraded grassland in the north-eastern part of China, where sand dune remobilization has been occurring due to over grazing. The results suggested that mixed seeding of native forage species with different functional traits could facilitate establishment of several plant species to unstable ground surface and induce restoration of native vegetation with perennial grass species. Our results also indicated that the combination with construction of straw checkerboard could enhance the continuous reduction of wind erosion.
