Abstract
North China is the most important food basket of China, where the majority of wheat and corn are produced. Most crops
grown in North China are irrigated, thus water security is food security. Since the 1980s, drying has been frequently
observed, as shown by a reduction in precipitation, cutoff in riverflow, and shrinkage of lakes. This increase in drying
cannot be explained by climate change alone. We propose that intensive land-use in this area in recent decades has had
a significant impact. The objectives of the study are to develop a quantitative model of the concurrent processes of
climate change and land-use in North China, and to estimate the relative contributions of each on the observed drying. We
integrated relevant socioeconomic data, land-use data, and climate data in the model, and carried out a detailed multi-
temporal (decade, year, day) analysis. Results showed that land-use has greatly changed since 1999. This change is
mainly associated with an extremely important 1999 national policy of “returning farmland and grazing land to forest and
grassland”. We found an interesting interaction between climate change and land use policy on riverflow, runoff, and
evapotranspiration. During 1970s and 1980s, climate change explained more than 80%, while the land-use change explained
only 10% of the riverflow change. The relative
