Occurrence of perfluorinated compounds in fish from Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau [PDF]

open access: yesEnvironment International, 2010
Perfluorinated compounds (PFCs) were found in fish muscle collected from high mountain lakes in the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau, the highest and biggest plateau on Earth. In 96% of the total fifty-nine fish samples were found detectable perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) as prominent PFCs, while only three for perfluorooctanoate (PFOA).

Effects of desertification on permafrost environment in Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau

Journal of Environmental Management, 2020
Soil thermal state exerts an important role in soil physicochemical properties, nutrient content, soil carbon losses, and hydrological processes in cold regions. In the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, desertification and aeolian sand accumulation greatly change the surface cover types and simultaneously alter the surface energy budget.

Reproduction of plateau pika (Ochotona curzoniae) on the Qinghai–Tibetan plateau

European Journal of Wildlife Research, 2011
The reproduction of the plateau pika (Ochotona curzoniae) was investigated in Guoluo District at an elevation of 4,000 m on the Qinghai–Tibetan plateau, China, from April 2007 to August 2008. Reproduction was seasonal, and the breeding season lasted from April to late June/early July.

Impacts of climate change on herpetofauna diversity in the Qinghai‐Tibetan Plateau

Conservation Biology, 2023
Abstract Although numerous studies on the impacts of climate change on biodiversity have been published, only a handful are focused on the intraspecific level or consider population‐level models (separate models per population). We endeavored to fill this knowledge gap relative to the Qinghai‐Tibetan plateau (QTP) by combining species

Landscape structure and dynamics on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau

Ecological Modelling, 2016
Abstract Quantitative characterisation of landscapes through derivation of landscape indices helps to define landscape composition, but provides limited insight into configuration attributes. This research demonstrates how the combined use of landscape indices and graph theory (and its associated analytical tools) can produce more substantive ...

Investigation of biogenic volatile organic compounds emissions in the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau

Science of The Total Environment, 2023
Biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOCs), which are produced and emitted by plants, have significant chemical reactivity in the atmosphere and impacting climate change. Qinghai Province, a vital component of the plateau, has abundant vegetation resources, primarily grasslands and forests, yet BVOCs emissions and their impact on air quality remain ...

Recent permafrost warming on the Qinghai‐Tibetan Plateau

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, 2008
Permafrost temperature monitoring through 10 boreholes up to 10.7 m depth has been conducted half‐monthly from 1996 through 2006 along the Qinghai‐Tibetan Highway. The primary results show that the long‐term mean annual permafrost temperatures at 6.0 m depth vary from −0.19°C at the Touerjiu Mountains (TM1) site to −3.43°C at Fenghuo Mountain (FH1 ...
