Fine-Grained Climate Classification for the Qaidam Basin

Atmosphere, 2022
The Qaidam Basin is a sensitive climate transition zone revealing a wide spectrum of local climates and their variability. In order to obtain an objective and quantitative expression of local climate regions as well as avoid the challenge to pre-define ...

137Cs inventories in soil in the Qaidam Basin, Tibetan Plateau

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2023
This paper presents measurements of cesium-137 (137Cs) in the Qaidam Basin during 2019 with 39 soil samples across the landscape. The aim here is to use the results of 137Cs inventories for the Qaidam Basin to subsequently estimate soil wind erosion. The

Sensitivity of Water Balance in the Qaidam Basin to the Mid‐Pliocene Climate [PDF]

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, 2020
AbstractThe Qaidam Basin (QB) in the northeastern Tibetan Plateau held a megalake system during the Pliocene. Today, the lower elevations in the basin are hyperarid. To understand to what extent the climate plays a role in the maintenance of the megalake system during the Pliocene, we applied the Weather Research and Forecasting model for dynamical ...

Detailed Processes and Potential Mechanisms of Pliocene Salty Lake Evolution in the Western Qaidam Basin

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2021
Hyperarid climate and salty lakes prevail in the current Qaidam Basin, but this basin was once a large paleolake until the early Quaternary. However, its evolution history and relationship with climate and tectonics are still elusive.

Niche analysis of dominant species in alpine desert grassland communities in Qaidam Basin [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences, 2021
Community dominant plants and their ecological niche research is the focus of community ecology research. To explore the niche characteristics of desert dominant plants and the relationship between them and soil factors in Qaidam Basin, and to provide a ...

Intensified Late Miocene Deformation in the Northern Qaidam Basin, Northern Tibetan Plateau, Constrained by Apatite Fission-Track Thermochronology

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2021
The Cenozoic tectonic evolution of the North Qaidam-Qilian Shan fold-thrust belt in the northern Tibetan Plateau is important to understanding the tectonic rejuvenation of orogeny and growth of the plateau.

Lake Expansion under the Groundwater Contribution in Qaidam Basin, China

Remote Sensing, 2022
The relationship between groundwater and lakes in Qaidam Basin is often overlooked. Therefore, we employed Landsat satellite images and meteorological data to investigate the causes of lake expansion through model calculation and statistical analysis and then determine groundwater sources through isotope analysis (2H, 3H, and 18O).
