The Aridity Threshold of Soil Organic Carbon Density Along the Climate Aridity Gradient in the Alpine Ecosystem of the Qinghai‐Tibetan Plateau

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 10205-10216, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Soil organic carbon density (SOCD) is a key indicator for evaluating the stability of soil carbon pools, especially in alpine ecosystems that are sensitive to climate change. However, research on the response of SOCD to different aridity gradients is still limited. Therefore, we conducted extensive sampling along different aridity gradients of

Response of Soil Fungal Communities to the Alpine Steppe Degradation Gradient

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 10308-10323, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT The degradation of alpine steppe on the Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau has become a critical ecological security issue. Soil fungi, as core regulators of grassland ecosystem functioning, play a pivotal role in mediating the feedback between degradation and soil ecological processes.

Carbon Emissions From Different Functional Zones of Construction Land in the Yellow River Basin Based on Nighttime Light Data and POI Data

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 10387-10404, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT The Yellow River Basin is a critical region for ecological conservation and sustainable development in China. It also serves as a core area for carbon emissions across various functional zones of construction land. Accurately understanding carbon emissions from various types of construction land in the Yellow River Basin is crucial for China ...

Boundary‐Aware Physical Constraints Refine Satellite Precipitation Occurrence Over the Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 16, 28 August 2026.
Abstract Over complex terrain, hourly precipitation occurrence estimates are often distorted by weak, persistent, and mistimed wet hours that are poorly constrained by independent time‐step classification. Using 1,232 hourly gauge records over the Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau (QTP), we develop a boundary‐aware physical‐constraint framework that learns ...
