However, current research still lacks research on typical desertification control engineering measures, and the impact on soil moisture is not clear. This study selected specific desertification control measures through field investigations, and obtained soil moisture content under the influence of sand barriers such as nylon nets through field sampling and indoor analysis. This data is helpful for studying the protection and ecological benefits of desertification control projects.
