[Abstract]

　We conducted field investigation in India, China, Thailand, Kazakhstan in Asia, and also in some African countries, to compare and understand the desertification processes. We made a comparison concerning human activities and desertification by "minimum dataset" approach with regard to climate, soil and water, vegetation, land-use and socio-economic variables.
