Contrasting response of growing season water use efficiency to precipitation changes between alpine meadows and alpine steppes over the Tibetan Plateau

Agricultural Water Management, 2023
Alpine grasslands are the dominant vegetation of the Tibetan Plateau (TP) and are essential to understanding the mechanism of change in water use efficiency (WUE) in high-cold ecosystems in a changing environment. However, it is still unclear how the WUE
