Elevation gradient shapes microbial carbon and phosphorous limitations in the Helan Mountains, Northwest China

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2022
Soil extracellular ecoenzymatic activities (EEA) are major players in the biogeochemical cycles and are closely related to the metabolic demand and nutrient supply in microbes.

Chemical composition of soil organic carbon and aggregate stability along an elevation gradient in Helan Mountains, northwest China

Ecological Indicators, 2021
Exploring the composition of soil organic carbon (SOC) and aggregate stability over a range of elevations is essential to evaluate the stability of SOC and the conversion of carbon source or sink of mountain ecosystems.

Evaluating applicability of multi-source precipitation datasets for runoff simulation of small watersheds: a case study in the United States

European Journal of Remote Sensing, 2020
Small watersheds are ideal objects for studying the evolution of hydrological and water resources at small scales. Whether precipitation products can meet the runoff simulation of small watersheds is the main purpose of this study.

Effect of enclosure on reproductive allocation of wheatgrass Agropyron mongolicum populations in desert steppes

Ecology and Evolution, 2019
Plants generally adopt different reproductive strategies to adapt to their environments and increase their fitness. Here, we studied the effects of enclosure cultivation on the reproductive allocation of a wheatgrass species Agropyron mongolicum in the ...
