Accelerating thermokarst lake changes on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau. [PDF]

Sci Rep
Abstract As significant evidence of ice-rich permafrost degradation due to climate warming, thermokarst lake was developing and undergoing substantial changes. Thermokarst lake was an essential ecosystem component, which significantly impacted the global carbon cycle, hydrology process and the stability of the ...

Assessment of the vulnerability of alpine grasslands on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau

PeerJ, 2020
Assessing ecosystem vulnerability to climate change is critical for sustainable and adaptive ecosystem management. Alpine grasslands on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau are considered to be vulnerable to climate change, yet the ecosystem tends to maintain stability by increasing resilience and decreasing sensitivity.

An early warning signal for grassland degradation on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau

Nature Communications, 2023
AbstractIntense grazing may lead to grassland degradation on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau, but it is difficult to predict where this will occur and to quantify it. Based on a process-based ecosystem model, we define a productivity-based stocking rate threshold that induces extreme grassland degradation to assess whether and where the current grazing ...

Snow effects on alpine vegetation in the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau

International Journal of Digital Earth, 2013
Understanding the relationships between snow and vegetation is important for interpretation of the responses of alpine ecosystems to climate changes. The Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau is regarded as an ideal area due to its undisturbed features with low population and relatively high snow cover.

The Multiple Perspective Response of Vegetation to Drought on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau

Remote Sensing, 2023
The Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau (QTP) is a global center of cold and dry, where the most extensive fragile alpine vegetation exists. Quantitative analysis of drought event characteristics and vegetation response to drought on the QTP is indispensable for understanding the increasing drought events in a warming climate which exacerbate adverse influence on ...
