The Influence of Local Climatic Factors and Water Vapor Transport from North Atlantic Ocean on Winter Snow-Cover Variation on Western Kunlun Mountains and Eastern Pamir Plateau

Remote Sensing
Snow cover days (SCD) have increased significantly in winter on the Western Kunlun Mountains and Eastern Pamir Plateau (hereafter referred to as KMPP for short), however the causes have not been well understood so far. Here, we use remote sensing data to

The complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Lepus tibetanus pamirensis

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020
Lepus tibetanus pamirensis distributes only in the Pamir Plateau under a harsh environment with high attitude, cold and dry climates. The complete mitochondrial genome of the hare was determined (accession number MN539746) in a total length of 16,753 bp.
