Ecological Risk Assessment and Impact Factor Analysis of Alpine Wetland Ecosystem Based on LUCC and Boosted Regression Tree on the Zoige Plateau, China

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
The Zoige Plateau is typical of alpine wetland ecosystems worldwide, which play a key role in regulating global climate and ecological balance. Due to the influence of global climate change and intense human activities, the stability and sustainability ...

The seed germination spectrum of alpine plants: a global meta-analysis.

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2020
Assumptions about the germination ecology of alpine plants are presently based on individual species and local studies. A current challenge is to synthesize, at the global level, the alpine seed ecological spectrum.

Global distribution and bioclimatic characterization of alpine biomes

open access: yesEcography, 2020
Although there is a general consensus on the distribution and ecological features of terrestrial biomes, the allocation of alpine ecosystems in the global biogeographic system is still unclear.

Progressive nitrogen limitation across the Tibetan alpine permafrost region

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
The ecosystem carbon (C) balance in permafrost regions, which has a global significance in understanding the terrestrial C-climate feedback, is significantly regulated by nitrogen (N) dynamics.

Soil Bacterial Communities and Diversity in Alpine Grasslands on the Tibetan Plateau Based on 16S rRNA Gene Sequencing

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
The Tibetan Plateau, widely known as the world’s “Third Pole,” has gained extensive attention due to its susceptibility to climate change. Alpine grasslands are the dominant ecosystem on the Tibetan Plateau, albeit little is known about the microbial ...

Discovery of plastic-degrading microbial strains isolated from the alpine and Arctic terrestrial plastisphere

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Increasing plastic production and the release of some plastic in to the environment highlight the need for circular plastic economy. Microorganisms have a great potential to enable a more sustainable plastic economy by biodegradation and enzymatic ...

Flowering phenology in alpine grassland strongly responds to shifts in snowmelt but weakly to summer drought

open access: yesAlpine Botany, 2021
Alpine plants complete their seasonal phenological cycle during two to three snow-free months. Under climate change, snowmelt advances and the risk of summer droughts increases.

Early Breeding Conditions Followed by Reduced Breeding Success Despite Timely Arrival in an Alpine Migratory Songbird

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Timing reproduction to coincide with optimal environmental conditions is key for many organisms living in seasonal habitats. Advance in the onset of spring is a particular challenge to migratory birds that must time their arrival without knowing the ...

Responses and feedback of the Tibetan Plateau’s alpine ecosystem to climate change

open access: yesChinese Science Bulletin, 2019
The Tibetan Plateau, also known as the “third pole of the Earth”, houses a diverse array of alpine-ecosystem types and serves as a critical ecological security shield for China and even for many other regions of Asia. In recent decades, the rapid climate
