Edaphic characterization and plant zonation in the Qaidam Basin, Tibetan Plateau. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2018 AbstractThis paper presents a study of edaphic characteristics and their relationship with plant distribution in the Qaidam Basin, Tibetan Plateau, and establishes a distribution model for plants in sandy gravel Gobi to dry salt lake areas. All of the communities in the study area were dominated by plants with strong saline-alkaline tolerance.
