Revealing Dust Source Changes in East Asia From Past to Future: An Interpretable Deep Learning Approach

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aeolian dust source areas are controlled by climate and human activities and are closely associated with land degradation, yet their long‐term evolution under global warming remains insufficiently quantified. An integrated framework that couples a U‐Net segmentation model with Shapley Additive Explanations (SHAP) was built to map and attribute

Driving Mechanisms of Land Degradation Neutrality at the County Level and Zonal Strategies in the Yellow River's Key Ecological Region (Part II: Post‐Assessment Driver Analysis)

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Achieving land degradation neutrality (LDN) is critical for sustainable socio‐ecological development; however, its practical implementation is often hindered by scale mismatches between assessments and administrative units, coupled with an over‐reliance on static drivers.

Amplitude of climatic changes in Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau

Chinese Science Bulletin, 2000
On the basis of ice core and meteorological data from the Qinghai-Tibetan (Q-T) Plateau, this article focuses on the discussion of the problems related to the sensitivity of temporal and spatial changes of the climate in high-altitude regions, particularly in the Q-T Plateau.

Species‐Specific Shrub Encroachment Drives Divergent Soil Fungal Assembly Processes and Network Structures in Alpine Meadows

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Shrub encroachment is rapidly transforming alpine meadow ecosystems worldwide, yet its consequences for belowground microbial organization remain insufficiently understood, particularly when different shrub species exert contrasting ecological effects.

Chronic high‐altitude exposure and intracerebral hemorrhage: A novel perspective from the vascular‐immune‐neuronal network

Neuroprotection, EarlyView.
Long‐term chronic high‐altitude hypobaric hypoxia increases susceptibility to ICH, particularly among migrant populations lacking EPAS1/SENP1 adaptive genetic variants relative to high‐altitude indigenous residents. Persistent hypoxia initiates blood–brain barrier (BBB) breakdown, aberrant glial and immune activation, and progressive neuronal injury ...

The Characteristics of Thunderstorms and Their Lightning Activity on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau

Advances in Meteorology, 2022
This paper discusses the temporal and spatial distribution characteristics of cloud-to-ground (CG) lightning activity over the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau (QTP) from 2009 to 2018 and their dependence on meteorological factors. It is found that (1) the number of CG flashes fluctuates, reaches a maximum in 2014, and then gradually decreases.
