	[https://www.ipcc.ch/report/ar5/wg2/ AR5 Climate Change 2014: Impacts, Adaptation, and Vulnerability, Glossary], published by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) defines desertification as: ‘Land degradation in arid, semi-arid, and dry sub-humid areas resulting from various factors, including climatic variations and human activities. Land degradation in arid, semi-arid, and dry sub-humid areas is reduction or loss of the biological or economic productivity and complexity of rainfed cropland, irrigated cropland, or range, pasture, forest, and woodlands resulting from land uses or from a process or combination of processes, including processes arising from human activities and habitation patterns, such as (1) soil erosion caused by wind and/or water; (2) deterioration of the physical, chemical, biological, or economic properties of soil; and (3) long-term loss of natural vegetation (UNCCD, 1994).’		[https://www.ipcc.ch/report/ar5/wg2/ AR5 Climate Change 2014: Impacts, Adaptation, and Vulnerability, Glossary], published by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) defines desertification as: ‘Land degradation in arid, semi-arid, and dry sub-humid areas resulting from various factors, including climatic variations and human activities.
