Species divergence with gene flow and hybrid speciation on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.

New Phytologist, 2022
The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP) sensu lato (sl), comprising the platform, the Himalaya, and the Hengduan Mountains, is characterized by a high number of endemic plant species.

Tectonic evolution of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau

Journal of Asian Earth Sciences, 2012
Abstract The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, composed of several continental slivers within the eastern Tethyan domain, is one of the pivotal sites to examine to better understand the theory of plate tectonics and the orogenic evolution on Earth. This plateau is generally inferred to be a collage of several continental blocks that rifted from Gondwanaland and

Microplastics in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau lakes, China

Science of The Total Environment
As an emerging environmental pollutant, microplastics (MPs) have received widespread attention. Recently, studies examining microplastic pollution in plateau lakes have been increasing, but few have examined the distributions, sources, and fates of MPs in different plateau areas. In this work, the abundances and characteristics of MPs in surface waters

Climatic factors and human disturbance influence ungulate species distribution on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.

Science of the Total Environment, 2023
Due to human activities and climate change, the habitats of ungulate species on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau have been greatly affected in recent decades.

Permafrost temperatures and thickness on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau

Global and Planetary Change, 2010
Abstract Based on permafrost temperature measurements from 190 boreholes along the Qinghai-Tibet Highway/Railway since the early 1960s, we present spatial variations of permafrost temperatures, thermal gradients, and thickness on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.

The occurrence of microplastics in farmland and grassland soils in the Qinghai-Tibet plateau: Different land use and mulching time in facility agriculture.

Environmental Pollution, 2021
Microplastic (MP) pollution in the environment has aroused great concern. However, our knowledge of MP abundance and distribution in soil environment is scarce.
