A desertification grassland ecological restoration method based on synergistic configuration of plant functional traits
By classifying desertified grasslands according to their degree of desertification and configuring resource-acquiring and resource-conserving plants based on their functional traits, the problems of low vegetation coverage and poor stability in existing technologies have been solved. This approach enables rapid restoration and long-term stability of desertified grasslands and is suitable for the ecological restoration of semi-arid areas in the north and wind-eroded grasslands.

AI Technical Summary
Existing desertification grassland restoration technologies lack a vegetation configuration system based on the synergistic mechanism of plant ecological strategies and functional traits, resulting in low vegetation coverage, poor stability, insufficient stress resistance, and easy re-degradation.
By classifying desertified grasslands according to their degree of desertification and classifying restoration plants into resource-acquiring and resource-conserving types based on their functional traits, and by coordinating their allocation, combined with enclosure and restoration management, vegetation restoration can be promoted.
It has enabled the rapid restoration and long-term stable maintenance of desertified grasslands, improved the community's resilience and ecological function, reduced the risk of further degradation, and is suitable for the ecological restoration of semi-arid areas in the north and wind-eroded grasslands.
