Beyond the Surface: Understanding Salt Crusts’ Impact on Water Loss in Arid Regions

Soils in arid regions are characterized by elevated salinity levels. During the process of soil moisture evaporation, salts are transported with water to the surface, resulting in the formation of salt crusts. Although these crusts significantly impact soil moisture evaporation, there is a paucity o...
