Biological soil crust under shrubs and its topsoil properties in the process of dune vegetation restoration in the Horqin Sandy Grassland,Inner Mongolia

摘要：

Biological soil crust (BSC) is a major structural feature of surface soils and sediments, especially in the arid and semiarid regions, which commonly result from the development of communities of micro‐organisms on the surface of physical soil crusts.BSCs are well developed under different shrubs along the vegetation restoration gradient of dunes in the Horqin Sandy Grassland, Inner Mongolia, northern China.
