(230923) -- YINCHUAN, Sept. 23, 2023 (Xinhua) -- This aerial photo taken on Sept. 6, 2023 shows the Yellow River flowing through Shapotou District in Zhongwei City, northwest China's Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region. Shapotou, literally meaning "high sand dunes," is a place where the Tengger Desert and the Yellow River meet. This district was faced with severe wind-sand damages, where shifting yellow sands covered farmland. Through years of dedicated efforts, local people have been combating desertification with grass pane sand fence and sand-fixing system, halting the spread of desert. (Xinhua/Wang Peng)

                  (240321) -- YINCHUAN, March 21, 2024 (Xinhua) -- Workers plant Caragana seedlings at Baijitan national nature reserve of Lingwu, northwest China's Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, March 19, 2024. On the southwest edge of the Maowusu Desert, there lies a 60-km-long and 30-km-wide oasis. The verdure, which blocks windblown dust in Maowusu, has been working in fighting desertification. Within the green belt is the Baijitan national nature reserve of Lingwu City. Yet back in the 1950s, Baijitan, which adjoins Maowusu, one of China's major deserts, was still a barren land known for "no birds in the sky and no grass on the ground." For more than several decades, with the unremitting efforts of experts, local people and volunteers, the afforestation here has effectively curbed the expansion of the Maowusu Desert.
