The large-scale management of ditches and implementation of land projects in lo-ess areas have increased the arable land area but have caused considerable engineering issues,resulting in severe soil erosion.In this study,field tests were performed at different time scales,a control group was established,organic material-plant joint restoration tech-nology was proposed as an optimized management measure,and the erosion control mechanism and restoration mode of organic material-plant joint restoration technology were analyzed.Based on the obtained experimental data,a Water Erosion Prediction Project(WEPP)-based hydraulic erosion model was constructed,sensitivity parameters were cali-brated,and the soil erosion intensity and corresponding spatial distribution in the watershed of the study area were simulated via the geo-spatial interface for WEPP(GeoWEPP)after organic material-plant joint restoration technology was adopted to predict the effect of opti-mized management measures.The results showed that among the slopes with different res-toration measures,organic material-plant joint restoration technology effectively controlled loess slope erosion,and the average erosion modulus of the organic material-grass and shrub transplantation slope reached only 23.37 t/km2,which is a decrease of 97.68%relative to the traditional grass-shrub protection slope.Moreover,the sand content of the joint resto-ration slope was reduced by 392.41 g/L relative to the bare slope,reaching only 0.29 g/L,and the runoff yield was reduced by 8.88 L/min.The GeoWEPP modeling results revealed that the total runoff yield and average annual erosion modulus of the watershed were lower after joint restoration than during the prerestoration period.Similarly,the total runoff yield of the water-shed was 4.6%,the simulated 10-year average annual total sand production reached 2048.3 t,and the average annual erosion modulus was 582.75 t/km2,which is 52.15%lower than that under untreated conditions.This study provides a new strategy for solving soil erosion prob-lems and restoring the ecology of slopes after managing ditches and implementing land pro-jects.
