Triassic High-Mg Diorites and Granitoids in the NE Pamir Reveal Tectonic Evolution of the Paleo-Tethys Ocean [PDF]
The Western Kunlun-Pamir Orogen (WKPO) in the northwestern Tibetan Plateau holds crucial information on the Tethyan evolution. Until now, the subduction polarity and the assemblage processes of the Northern, Central, and Southern Pamir during the Paleo ...

Genetic origins and climate‐induced erosion in economically important Asian walnuts
Abstract The global climate is undergoing unprecedented changes, posing significant threats to species persistence. However, the spatiotemporal impacts on genetic diversity remain poorly understood, hindering species conservation and management. Walnuts, generally referred to as Juglans regia and J. sigillata, are economically vital in Asia, but little

Winter Baseflow Calibration's Critical Role in Hydrological Modeling for the Pamir Region
Abstract The Pamir Mountains, a critical water source for Central Asia, require accurate quantification of runoff components for water resource management under climate change. Uncertainties in precipitation data are known to greatly affect hydrological model accuracy, leading to the widespread use of multi‐data calibration methods to avoid internal ...

Abstract The altitude effect (AE) of stable isotopes in meteoric water (δ18O and δ2H), that is, the depletion of water isotopes with increasing altitude, is an important theoretical assumption of isotope‐based paleoaltimetry. However, this assumption has recently been challenged, as many in situ observations fail to consistently demonstrate the ...

Climate changes reconstructed from a glacial lake in High Central Asiaover the past two millennia [PDF]
Climatic changes in Arid Central Asia (ACA) over the past two millennia have been widely concerned. However, less attention has been paid to those in the High Central Asia (HCA), where the Asian water tower nurtures the numerous oases by glacier and/or ...
