“…Several studies have shown that afforestation in cultivated farmland soils induced changes in most soil properties and soil fertility, contributing to soil improvement in different cases (Li and Cui, 2000;Wang Q. et al, 2014;. Shelterbelts of different ages and tree species could effectively reduce nitrate nitrogen by 22-60% (Jaskulska and Jaskulska, 2017), and also regulate soil physiochemical properties, fertility, and carbon sequestration . In addition, soil physical properties could be altered from afforestation practices, including increases in soil bulk density and decreases in total porosity, water retention, and ventilation capacity (Wang, 2002;Wang et al, 2011b.…”

Frontiers is more than just an open-access publisher of scholarly articles: it is a pioneering approach to the world of academia, radically improving the way scholarly research is managed. The grand vision of Frontiers is a world where all people have an equal opportunity to seek, share and generate knowledge. Frontiers provides immediate and permanent online open access to all its publications, but this alone is not enough to realize our grand goals. Frontiers Journal Series The Frontiers Journal Series is a multi-tier and interdisciplinary set of open-access, online journals, promising a paradigm shift from the current review, selection and dissemination processes in academic publishing. All Frontiers journals are driven by researchers for researchers; therefore, they constitute a service to the scholarly community. At the same time, the Frontiers Journal Series operates on a revolutionary invention, the tiered publishing system, initially addressing specific communities of scholars, and gradually climbing up to broader public understanding, thus serving the interests of the lay society, too. Dedication to Quality Each Frontiers article is a landmark of the highest quality, thanks to genuinely collaborative interactions between authors and review editors, who include some of the world's best academicians. Research must be certified by peers before entering a stream of knowledge that may eventually reach the public-and shape society; therefore, Frontiers only applies the most rigorous and unbiased reviews. Frontiers revolutionizes research publishing by freely delivering the most outstanding research, evaluated with no bias from both the academic and social point of view. By applying the most advanced information technologies, Frontiers is catapulting scholarly publishing into a new generation. What are Frontiers Research Topics? Frontiers Research Topics are very popular trademarks of the Frontiers Journals Series: they are collections of at least ten articles, all centered on a particular subject.

“…Дослідженнями Hu et al (2017) виявлено сприятливий вплив на ґрунти змішаних насаджень фруктових дерев та робінії, яка сприяє накопиченню азоту та органічного вуглецю в ґрунтах таких насаджень. Досліджено захисні лісові смуги, утворені робінією, як біогеохімічні бар'єри, що здатні зменшити концентрацію поживних речовин у підземні води, які мігрують із прилеглих культурних полів (Jaskulska, Jaskulska, 2017). Авторами встановлено, що насадження активно перешкоджають міграції NO 3 та PO 4 , одночасно з цим спостерігається збільшення концентрації NH 4 , що потребує проведення контролю за цим явищем з метою попередження забруднення підземних вод цією сполукою.…”

Some features of the influence of Robinia pseudoacacia L. (black locust) on soils in arid conditions The modern scientific sources concerning the peculiarities of the influence of Robinia pseudoacacia L. on soils under arid conditions have been analyzed. As a result of the performed analysis, it turned out that the largest number of scientific sources is devoted to the highlighting of the specifics of the influence of plantings on the content of organic substances, nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, soil moisture, as well as erosion processes and the process of recultivation of disturbed lands. The main influence of Robinia pseudoacacia L. on the organic matter content is manifested in increasing the soil organic carbon content in the upper layers of soils, as well as in its increase in soil content, preferably up to a depth of 50 cm, compared with some other trees and herbaceous plants. Nitrogen is the main biophilic chemical element that is actively accumulated by black locust plantings. At the same time, the positive effect of Robinia pseudoacacia L. on the accumulation of phosphorus and potassium in soils was found, which positively affects the increase of soil fertility under plantings. An analysis of literary sources has revealed that there are results of researches that confirm the use of black locust from moisture from both surface and deep layers of soils. Plantings of Robinia pseudoacacia L. are actively used in arid conditions to overcome the manifestations of erosion processes. In this case, an additional mechanism of anti-erosion stability of the plantation, some authors consider the formation of forest litter in black locust forest stands. Robinia pseudoacacia L. due to its adaptations is successfully used in the recultivation of disturbed lands, actively improving their properties and increasing their fertility. It should be noted, however, that most European countries regard Robinia pseudoacacia L. as an invasive species whose invasion negatively affects indigenous plant communities. At the same time, the countries, a significant part of which falls on arid lands, actively use black locust for afforestation and improvement of the state of their soils.

“…In arid and semi-arid areas, large-scale afforestation activities are considered as the main measure to improve the ecological environment (Deng et al, 2013;Zhu and Song, 2021). Planted forests can alleviate wind and sand disasters, change the physical properties of underlying surfaces, affect the water cycle of microclimates and the redistribution of water resources, and effectively improve land productivity in farmland, grasslands, oases, and other areas (Atangana et al, 2014;Jaskulska and Jaskulska, 2017;Zara et al, 2022;Howlader, 2023). However, the roots of planted forests can absorb soil moisture at different depths (Jia and Shao, 2014;Wafa et al, 2019), and seriously affect soil moisture conditions through transpiration, infiltration, and interception, leading to a decrease of the entire soil profile and even totally dry soil layers (Wang et al, 2011;Su and Shangguan, 2019).…”

IntroductionPlanted forests are of great significance in reducing wind erosion and controlling degraded land, and are the main measure to improve the ecological environment in arid and semi-arid areas. Afforestation is mainly based on tall trees, but forest belts consume a large amount of water, bringing significant pressure to the environmental carrying capacity. While shrubs generally consume less water than do trees, it remains understudied what role shrubs play in configuration of shelterbelts in arid areas.MethodsIn this study, we conducted wind tunnel simulation experiments with the common used afforestation tree species Populus popularis and shrub species Salix psammophila. We set up single- or double-belt pure forest and mixed tree/shrub configurations, to analyze their effects on the wind speed, flow field, and wind prevention efficiency of different forest belt types.ResultsThe results showed that: 1) the wind erosion resistance of the double-belt shelter forest was stronger than that of a single-belt forest. 2) Shelterbelts consisting of trees had a strong resistance to airflow disturbances, but their protective effect was reflected mainly in the canopy layer, with poor near-surface protection. 3) Shelterbelts consisting of shrubs had a good protective effect within effective height, and the wind speed in the double-shrub forest belt was 77% of that in the single-tree forest belt. 4) The wind prevention efficiency within the shrub forest belt was better than that of the tree forest belt, with wind prevention efficiency exceeding 40% in most double-shrub forests. Shrubs as a supplement to trees could increase the minimum wind prevention efficiency by up to 30%.DiscussionTherefore, the role of shrubs should be emphasized in afforestation in arid areas, especially in areas that need near-surface protection.
