Soil indicators for restoration monitoring in arid regions: a case study from the central Namib Desert / Antje Burke; S. Müller - Windhoek: Environmental Information Service, 2020 - 12 pages, figures, tables, 30 cm

Rehabilitated sites in the arid Namib Desert showed no clear trends in soil properties over a six-year monitoring period, except in calcium content at subsoil-dominated sites. Soil organic carbon content was not correlated with standing biomass and it is therefore questionable whether it provides a suitable indicator for soil fertility in arid regions in a restoration context.
