- La désertification est un phénomène naturel ou non qui a pour origine des variations climatiques et/ou les conséquences d'activités humaines. Ce mot décrit une aridification locale, reflétant la dégradation des terres menant à des conditions biotiques de type désertique. Wikipédia - by Kévin Bacquet
- Example sentence(s)
- Un tiers de la superficie des terres émergées du globe (4 milliards d’hectares) est menacé par la désertification, et plus de 250 millions de personnes sont directement affectées par ce problème. 24 milliards de tonnes de sols fertiles disparaissent chaque année. Entre 1991 et 2000, les sécheresses ont entraîné la mort de plus de 280 000 personnes; elles représentent 11% de l’ensemble des catastrophes naturelles liées à l’eau. - Année internationale de l'eau douce

- Definition(s)
- Aavikoituminen seuraa, kun maaperä kuivuu ja rappeutuu niin, ettei maa pysty ylläpitämään ekosysteemin perustuotantoa. Liian intensiivisen maanviljelyn ja liikalaidunnuksen sekä metsäkadon seurauksena maaperä menettää kykynsä palautua kuivien jaksojen jälkeen ja ylläpitää ekosysteemejä. Paljas maa on erittäin herkkä eroosiolle. Ruoantuotannon kannalta aavikoituminen on alueellinen katastrofi, sillä aavikoitunut maa on viljelykelvotonta. ilmasto.org - by PeeGee (X)
- Example sentence(s)
- Ymmärrämme aavikoitumisen helposti hiekka-aavikoiden leviämisenä. Todellisuudessa kysymys on kuivuus-alueiden ympäristön vähittäisestä turmeltumisesta. Aavikoitumisongelman taustalta löytyy yleensä köyhyys, mihin kytkeytyy voimakas väestönkasvu, luonnonvarojen liiallinen käyttö ja epäselvät maanomistusolot. Ihmisen aiheuttama, luonnollista huomattavasti nopeampi ilmastonmuutos kiihdyttää aavikoitumista. Aavikoitumisen välittömiä syitä ovat metsäkato sekä kestämättömät viljely-, kastelu- ja laidunjärjestelmät. - Aavikko/Suomen YK-liitto

- Конвенцията на ООН за борба с опустиняването дефинира опустинява-
нето като „деградация на земите в сухите, полусухите и малко влажните
зони в резултат на различни фактори, включително изменението на
климата и дейността на човека“ (КБОООН, чл. 1.а.). Опустиняването е
динамичен процес, наблюдаван в сухите и крехки екосистеми. Той засяга
сухоземните зони (горен почвен слой, земята, подземните води, повърх-
ностния отток), животинските и растителни популации, както и чо-
вешките селища и елементите на благоустрояването им (например,
тераси и язовири).

- The process through which a desert takes over a formerly non-desert area. When a region begins to undergo desertification, the new conditions typically include a significantly lowered water table, a reduced supply of surface water, increased salinity in natural waters and soils, progressive destruction of native vegetation, and an accelerated rate of erosion.

- In addition to vegetation deterioration, erosion, and salinization, desertification effects can be seen in loss of soil fertility, soil compaction, and soil crusting - DESERTIFICATION OF ARID LANDS
