Effects of sand fixation forest restoration on soil water infiltration capacity in Mu Us Sandy Land
Therefore, based on comprehensive consideration of sand fixation needs and water conservation, <i>Salix cheilophila</i> (SC) performs better in water holding and infiltration promotion, and is more suitable for construction of sand fixation forests in this region. In water-lack areas, shrub-grass mixed forests should be considered for construction of sand fixation forests in the future.
