Determinants influencing seasonal variations of methane emissions from alpine wetlands in Zoige Plateau and their implications

open access: yes, 2008
To understand the seasonality of methane flux from alpine wetlands in Zoige Plateau, 30 plots were set to measure the methane emissions in the growing and nongrowing seasons in three environmental types: dry hummock (DH), Carex muliensis (CM), and ...

Stochastic and deterministic processes influencing mountain mire diatom communities across spatial scales

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2026, Issue 9, September 2026.
Understanding how deterministic and stochastic processes influence the shape of microorganism community assembly across different spatial scales is essential for disentangling biodiversity patterns. Mires are nutrient‐poor and heterogeneous wetlands that form isolated habitats supporting highly diverse diatom assemblages, particularly in mountainous ...

The dual influence of top‐down and bottom‐up processes on a mesopredator and the consequences for prey

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2026, Issue 9, September 2026.
Ecosystem dynamics are shaped by interacting top‐down and bottom‐up processes, yet their relative importance may vary through time following disturbances such as disease outbreaks and changes in apex predator communities. Using a 52‐year time series in south‐central Sweden, we examined how disease, apex predators, and prey availability jointly impact a

Management of wetlands of non-prominence from the perspective of benefit-degradation relation [PDF]

open access: yes
Wetlands of non-prominence discussed here are some water bodies in the lower-gangetic floodplains of India. People surrounding these wetlands earn their livelihood and derive many direct and indirect benefits from them.

Study on Water Consumption Law of Typical Alpine Meadow and Alpine Swamp Wetland Vegetation in Qinghai-Xizang Plateau

open access: yesGaoyuan qixiang, 2022
In order to reveal the water consumption characteristics of typical alpine meadow and alpine swamp wetland on the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau, taking alpine meadow in Maqin area and alpine swamp wetland in Yushu Longbao area of Qinghai-Xizang Plateau as observation stations, the actual evapotranspiration was taken as the research object.The eddy correlation

Unraveling the drivers of amphibian community distribution at a lowland–mountain interface: A joint modeling approach

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Understanding how environmental and biotic processes jointly shape species distributions and community composition is a central goal in ecology. Although species distribution models (SDMs) have become essential tools for quantifying environmental drivers of occurrence, their single‐species framework limits inference about interspecific ...

Climate Warming Promotes Carbon Sequestration and Weathering in Tundra Landscapes and Alters Carbon Chemistry of Subarctic Lakes in Scandinavia

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 3, September 2026.
Climate‐induced vegetation greening (NDVImax) stimulated C‐sequestration in subarctic catchments by 10%–85% during the last decades. Increases in weathering and declines in non‐marine SO4 atmospheric deposits were identified as the main drivers of decadal increases in inorganic C (ICalk) run‐off to subarctic lakes.

The Viability of Creating Wetlands for the Sale of Carbon Offsets [PDF]

open access: yes
This analysis estimates the profitability of restoring wetlands for the sale of carbon offsets. Results indicate that about 7% to 12% of the recently restored grassed wetlands of the prairie pothole and high plains regions and 20% to 35% of the forested ...

Beach Gold and Heavy Mineral Concentrates on Tiwai Spit Gravel Strand Plain, Southland, New Zealand

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 3, September 2026.
The Holocene Tiwai Spit on Foveaux Strait is a 12 km by 2 km gravel‐dominated strand plain, ∼10 m above present sea level. Gravel clasts are dominated by well‐rounded quartz cobbles, pebbles and granules derived from Otago Schist 200 km to the north in evolving river drainage systems during late Cenozoic.

Effect of Simulated Drying-Rewetting Cycles on Soil Respiration and Dissolved Organic Carbon and Nitrogen Stability in Zoige Alpine Wetlands

open access: yesShuitu baochi yanjiu, 2020
With the global climate change, extreme droughts and heavy precipitation events occur frequently, thus soils are undergoing more complicated and frequent drying-rewetting cycles, which have an important effect on soil respiration.
