Vegetation NDVI Linked to Temperature and Precipitation in the Upper Catchments of Yellow River [PDF]
, 2012 Vegetation in the upper catchment of Yellow River is critical for the ecological stability of the whole watershed. The dominant vegetation cover types in this region are grassland and forest, which can strongly influence the eco-environmental status of ...

Changes in plant species richness distribution in Tibetan alpine grasslands under different precipitation scenarios [PDF]
, 2020 Species richness is the core of biodiversity-ecosystem functioning (BEF) research. Nevertheless, it is difficult to accurately predict changes in plant species richness under different climate scenarios, especially in alpine biomes.

Evaluating the dynamics of grassland net primary productivity in response to climate change in China
Global Ecology and Conservation, 2021 Net primary productivity (NPP) has been considered as a direct indicator to access the terrestrial primary production. However, considerable uncertainties remain toward the response mechanism of NPP to climate change across annual and seasonal scales ...

Contrasting microbial biogeographical patterns between anthropogenic subalpine grasslands and natural alpine grasslands [PDF]
New Phytologist, 2015 Summary The effect of plant species composition on soil microbial communities was studied at the multiregional level. We compared the soil microbial communities of alpine natural grasslands dominated by Carex curvula and anthropogenic subalpine pastures dominated by Nardus stricta. We conducted paired sampling across the Carpathians and the Alps and

Vegetation traits of pre-Alpine grasslands in southern Germany [PDF]
Scientific Data, 2020 AbstractThe data set contains information on aboveground vegetation traits of > 100 georeferenced locations within ten temperate pre-Alpine grassland plots in southern Germany. The grasslands were sampled in April 2018 for the following traits: bulk canopy height; weight of fresh and dry biomass; dry weight percentage of the plant functional types ...
