Responses of soil respiration to experimental warming in an alpine steppe on the Tibetan Plateau
Abstract High-latitude and high-altitude ecosystems store large amounts of carbon (C) and play a vital role in the global C cycle. Soil respiration (R S) in these ecosystems is believed to be extremely sensitive to climate warming and could potentially trigger positive C-climate feedback.

The ecological restoration of degraded alpine steppe is a critical component of ecological conservation efforts on the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau. In this study, we investigated the effects of fertilization, reseeding, and combined fertilization with reseeding restoration measures on the vegetation community, soil properties and microbial community ...

DIGITAL EXTRACTION AND CHANGE ANALYSIS OF ALTITUDINAL NATURAL ZONES IN TIANSHAN TOMUR NATURAL HERITAGE SITE [PDF]
The Tomur Natural Heritage Site possesses the most typical altitudinal natural zones on the south slope of the Tianshan Mountains. Five altitudinal zones have developed on the south faced slope, including: warm temperate desert zone, mountain steppe zone,

Consumption of atmospheric methane by the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau alpine steppe ecosystem [PDF]
Abstract. Methane (CH4) cycle on the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau (QTP), the world's largest high-elevation permafrost region, is sensitive to climate change and subsequent cryoturbation dynamics. Yet its magnitudes, patterns, and environmental controls are still poorly understood.
