Terrestrial Poor Ecohealth Areas Continue to Expand Across Asian Drylands

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The 7th Rio declaration principle emphasizes global collaboration to protect and restore ecosystem health. While dryland ecosystem health (EH) remains critical to global sustainability agendas, its long‐term regional dynamics remain poorly constrained across the Asian drylands (AD), where land management decisions increasingly shape ecological

Chemometrics Combined with Multi-Source Spectroscopy for Fruit Germplasm Quality Evaluation: A Case Study on Quince (Cydonia oblonga)

Foods
Quince (Cydonia oblonga Mill.) is an important fruit crop, yet a systematic quality evaluation framework is lacking. This study comprehensively characterized multiple germplasms from distinct production areas.

Examining geodetic glacier mass balance in the eastern Pamir transition zone

Journal of Glaciology, 2020
Glaciers in the eastern Pamir have reportedly been gaining mass during recent decades, even though glaciers in most other regions in High Mountain Asia have been in recession.

Late Cenozoic Convergence Between the Pamir and the Tianshan Revealed by Low‐Temperature Thermochronology

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The Cenozoic India–Eurasia collision drove widespread deformation across Central Asia, culminating in northward indentation of the Pamir and its eventual contact with the South Tianshan. However, the timing and kinematics of Pamir–Tianshan convergence, as well as its influence on regional topography and climate, remain debated. Here, we report

A transboundary study of spatiotemporal patterns of livestock predation and prey preferences by snow leopard and wolf in the Pamir

Global Ecology and Conservation, 2019
Livestock depredation by the snow leopard and the wolf is an eliciting human-carnivore conflict across their overlapping ranges and augments the economic burden of the disadvantaged agro-pastoralist communities who share the mountain ecosystem with the ...

Identifying priority areas to guide management planning of a protected area network to support snow leopard (Panthera uncia) in Asia

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 3, July–September 2026.
We analysed a total of 512 protected areas (PAs) across 13 snow leopard range countries, utilizing graph theory coupled with resistant kernels, to rank and prioritize PAs for management decisions. We found that protection status often did not correspond with PA importance for connectivity, critical PAs tended to be clustered at international borders ...

Three Pleistocene glacial advances and a warm episode during MIS-3: Towards a more complete glacial history of the Pamir mountains

Quaternary Science Advances
Determining the spatial and temporal variations of Pleistocene glaciations is key to understanding present-day climate-driven glacier changes. Glacial chronologies of high-mountain Asia, which are mostly based on cosmogenic 10Be exposure dating of ...

Characterization of the complete mitochondrial genome of the Pamir yak (Bos grunniens)

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2019
Pamir yak (Bos grunniens) is a yak breed from Pamir Plateau with strong adaptation to the high-elevation, cold and anoxic environments. Its complete mitochondrial genome was determined to be 16,323 bp long with a moderately asymmetric nucleotide ...
