THE DYNAMICAL BEHAVIOR AND APPLICATION OF ONE ALPINE MEADOW MODEL
Journal of Applied Analysis & Computation, 2021 Summary: In recent years, the alpine meadow has degraded seriously, before restoring the degraded alpine meadow, it is necessary to know the cause of degrading and to find the effective restoration measure. One forage grass-livestock-rodent-raptor dynamical model is formulated and analyzed.

Major Type of Mattic-Epipedon Ruptures in Alpine Meadow Ecosystems on the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau
Ecosystem Health and Sustainability, 2023 Alpine meadow degradation is an important issue for ecosystem stability in the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau (QTP). As an essential part of alpine meadow ecosystems, mattic epipedon (ME) refers to the soil surface horizons rich in organic matter and roots, which

Northwest Science, 2013 Abstract The importance of climate warming on forests is recognized worldwide and has increased attention on the significance of both timberline advance and alpine meadow invasion by forests. Successful seedling regeneration in alpine meadows depends on availability of suitable substrates, or microsites, for seedling establishment.

The Great Caucasus alpine belt syntaxonomy. Alpine meadows with restricted distribution
Vegetation of Russia, 2001 Alpine meadows with prevalence of perennial herbs and grasses and alpine fruticose-lichen heaths are widespread within the Great Caucasus alpine belt, 2400—3200 m above the sea level. The association Hedysaro hedysaroidis—Campanuletum collinae is met in the Western and Central Caucasus.

Sphingomonas prati sp. nov., isolated from alpine meadow soil
International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2016 A Gram-staining-negative, non-motile, orange-coloured and rod-shaped aerobic bacterium, designated W18RDT, was isolated from the alpine meadow soil of the Tibetan plateau. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences positioned strain W18RDT as a representative of a novel species under the genus Sphingomonas which was most closely related to ...
