Influences of drought on the stability of an alpine meadow ecosystem

Ecosystem Health and Sustainability, 2022
ABSTRACT Drought plays a prominent role in affecting ecosystem stability and ecosystem productivity. Based on eddy covariance and climatic observations during 2012–2020, the Fisher discriminant analysis method was employed to accurately detect drought occurrences. Furthermore, the ecosystem water sensitivity and its resistance to

Modeling land-atmosphere energy and water exchanges in the typical alpine grassland in Tibetan Plateau using Noah-MP

Journal of Hydrology: Regional Studies, 2023
Study region: Alpine grassland in the Tibetan Plateau Study focus: This study used Noah-MP to simulate the energy fluxes [net radiation (Rn), latent (λE) and sensible (H) heat fluxes] in two typical alpine ecosystems in the Tibetan Plateau.

Changes in plant composition and diversity in an alpine heath and meadow after 18 years of experimental warming

, 2021
Global warming is expected to have large impacts on high alpine and Arctic ecosystems in the future. Here we report effects of 18 years of experimental warming on two contrasting high alpine plant communities in subarctic Sweden. Using open-top chambers,

Methane emission by plant communities in an alpine meadow on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau: a new experimental study of alpine meadows and oat pasture [PDF]

Biology Letters, 2009
Recently, plant-derived methane (CH 4 ) emission has been questioned because limited evidence of the chemical mechanism has been identified to account for the process. We conducted an experiment with four treatments (i.e.

Precipitation Alters the Effects of Temperature on the Ecosystem Multifunctionality in Alpine Meadows [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Precipitation and temperature are major controls on multiple ecosystem functions in alpine grasslands. There is scant evidence for the interactive effects of temperature and precipitation changes on the ecosystem multifunctionality (EMF) in alpine meadows.

Below-Ground Growth of Alpine Plants, Not Above-Ground Growth, Is Linked to the Extent of Its Carbon Storage

Plants, 2021
Understanding carbon allocation in plants is essential for explaining their growth strategies during environmental adaptation. However, the role of mobile carbon in plant growth and its response to habitat conditions is still disputed. In degraded meadow
