Precipitation measurement intercomparison in the Qilian Mountains, Northeastern Tibetan Plateau [PDF]

The Cryosphere, 2015
Abstract. Systematic errors in gauge-measured precipitation are well-known but no reports have come from the Tibet Plateau. An intercomparison experiment was carried out from September 2010 to September 2014 in the Hulu watershed, northeastern Tibet Plateau.

Controlling factors of plant community composition with respect to the slope aspect gradient in the Qilian Mountains [PDF]

, 2019
Slope aspect can affect soil temperature and soil type distribution, which, in turn, is likely to influence plant community composition. Three Qilian mountains, located in the northeastern part of the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau, China, with four distinct ...

Influences of Seasonal Soil Moisture and Temperature on Vegetation Phenology in the Qilian Mountains

Remote Sensing, 2022
Vegetation phenology is a commonly used indicator of ecosystem responses to climate change and plays a vital role in ecosystem carbon and hydrological cycles. Previous studies have mostly focused on the response of vegetation phenology to temperature and precipitation. Soil moisture plays an important role in maintaining vegetation growth. However, our

Extreme precipitation stable isotopic compositions reveal unexpected summer monsoon incursions in the Qilian Mountains [PDF]

, 2023
Isotope composition and moisture sources of precipitation are important for understanding water cycles and reconstructing paleoclimate. Based on 15-years' precipitation stable Isotope composition (δ18O and δ2H) from four stations of the Qilian Mountains,
