Alpine constructed wetlands: A metagenomic analysis reveals microbial complementary structure
Science of The Total Environment, 2022 Constructed wetlands (CWs) are used to water treatment worldwide, however their application at high-altitude is poorly studied. In order to survive mountain winters, CWs rely on native flora and associated microbial communities. However, the choice of plant-microbes pairs more suitable for water treatment is challenging in alpine environments.

Seasonality and vertical structure of microbial communities in the alpine wetland
, 2023 Abstract The soil microbial community plays an important role in wetland ecosystem material transformation and energy flow. The temporal dynamics and spatial distribution of soil microbial communities have always been central questions in ecology.

Tussock microhabitats increase nitrogen uptake by plants in an alpine wetland
Plant and Soil, 2021 Tussock microhabitat is a universal phenomenon in wetlands, where soil and plant properties differ from their surrounding lawns. This study aims to investigate the differences of plant nitrogen (N) uptake between tussocks and lawns, which would further affect ecosystem functions.

Hydrological Response of Alpine Wetlands to Climate Warming in the Eastern Tibetan Plateau [PDF]
Remote Sensing, 2016 Alpine wetlands in the Tibetan Plateau (TP) play a crucial role in the regional hydrological cycle due to their strong influence on surface ecohydrological processes; therefore, understanding how TP wetlands respond to climate change is essential for projecting their future condition and potential vulnerability.

Streptomyces paludis sp. nov., isolated from an alpine wetland soil
International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2020 A Gram-stain-positive actinobacterium, designated strain GSSD-12T, was isolated from an alpine wetland soil. blast search of the full-length 16S rRNA gene sequence of GSSD-12T indicated it represented a member of the genus Streptomyces , and displayed highest ...

Holocene geochemical footprint from Semi-arid alpine wetlands in southern Spain [PDF]
Scientific Data, 2018 AbstractHere we provide the geochemical dataset that our research group has collected after 10 years of investigation in the Sierra Nevada National Park in southern Spain. These data come from Holocene sedimentary records from four alpine sites (ranging from ∼2500 to ∼3000 masl): two peatlands and two shallow lakes.
