A Study on the Distribution Characteristics of Salinity and Nutrients and the Migration Mechanism of Soil Salt in the Delingha Saline‐Alkali Soil Profile of the Qaidam Basin

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 16, Page 11867-11884, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Soil salinization negatively impacts the economic development and ecological environment, particularly in the arid and semiarid regions of China. The Qaidam Basin constitutes a major distribution area of saline‐alkali land in the country. However, the distribution patterns of salinity and nutrients within soil profiles and the underlying salt ...

Evaluation and Projection of Precipitation in CMIP6 Models over the Qilian Mountains, China

Remote Sensing, 2023
The Qilian Mountains (QMs) act as the “water tower” of the Hexi Corridors, playing an important role in the regional ecosystem security and economic development. Therefore, it is of great significance to understand the spatiotemporal characteristics of precipitation in the QMs. This study evaluated the performance of 21 models of phase 6 of the Coupled

An Ediacaran Metasedimentary Fragment With Northern Gondwana Affinity in the Southern East Kunlun Accretionary Belt, Northern Tibetan Plateau: Implications for the Dispersal of Peri‐Gondwanan Terranes

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Precambrian supercontinent reconstructions largely rely on robust geological constraints. Among these, the basin affinities recorded by Precambrian sedimentary fragments preserved in orogenic belts provide critical evidence for resolving the paleogeographic configurations of microcontinents and continental blocks.

Assessment of ecotourism suitability in Qilian mountain National park

Scientific Reports
Effective development of ecotourism is a strategy to improve the main functional areas of national parks, including scientific protection and utilization. For best results, suitability of ecotourism activities must be determined but methods and guidelines for suitability studies are lacking.

The Dongcaohe ophiolite from the North Qilian Mountains: A fossil oceanic crust of the Paleo-Qilian ocean

Chinese Science Bulletin, 2007
The Dongcaohe ophiolite, located at the south of the North Qilian subduction complexes, is a tectonic block with an exposed area of about 3 km×6 km. It consists of an intrusive section overlain by an extrusive section. The lower part of the intrusive section consists of cyclic layers of cumulate dunites, troctolites, anorthosites, anorthositic gabbros,

Correcting precipitation measurements of TRwS204 in the Qilian Mountains, China [PDF]

, 2017
Abstract. With the development and popularization of automatic weather stations, testing the performance of the recording precipitation gauges and deriving the adjustment algorithm have become the top priority. This study mainly analyzed the losses of TRwSSA (TRwS204 shielded with a single Alter) through correlation and regression methods, and derived ...

The Altitude Effect of Stable Isotopes in Rivers Over the Tibetan Plateau

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 18, 28 September 2026.
Abstract The altitude effect of stable isotopes in river water is key to paleoelevation reconstruction, yet remains poorly quantified at regional scales due to monitoring challenges. This study compiled river water isotope data across the Tibetan Plateau and used a decision‐tree‐based random forest model to simulate high‐resolution δ18O patterns.

Observed Retrogressive Thaw Slump Evolution in the Qilian Mountains

Remote Sensing
Climate warming can lead to permafrost degradation, potentially resulting in slope failures such as retrogressive thaw slumps (RTSs). The formation of and changes in RTSs could exacerbate the degradation of permafrost and the environment in general. The mechanisms of RTS progression and the potential consequences on the analogous freeze–thaw cycle are ...

Hydrological effects of evapotranspiration in the Qilian Mountains forest belt

, 2023
Abstract. Mountainous areas are the main water-producing and source areas of rivers. Global climate change is transforming the distribution of plants and forms of water use. Therefore, a clear understanding of evapotranspiration in mountainous forest zone is key for understanding the ecohydrological effect of vegetation and its influence on the water ...
