摘要

The Loess Plateau region of China covers an area of about 648 700 km~2 and supplies a large proportion of the nation's food. The soils derived from loessial deposits are poorly structured and are highly susceptible to erosion by water in an area that covers about 70% of the Plateau. In its most severe form, water erosion has resulted in gully formation so that the Loess Plateau now has a unique landscape that is incised by numerous gullies, of which 270 000 are longer than 500 m, which hinder agricultural and industrial development. Therefore, the further restoration of this large area of the Loess Plateau is a serious problem confronting China. Currently, the typical approach is to continue to build more check-dams to trap the sediment transported in the gully system. However, during the 400 year history of using check dams to intercept sediments from the Loess Plateau, the sediments in the Yellow River did not necessarily decrease, but even increased at times. Therefore, we deem that filling gullies to create farmland on the Loess Plateau should be considered.
