Reversal of Temperature Sensitivity in Vegetation Greenness Rates Along Aridity Gradients Across Global Ecoregions

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Drought is increasingly reshaping terrestrial ecosystems under climate change, yet how aridity modulates the climatic sensitivities of satellite‐derived green‐up rate (GR) and senescence rate (SR) in natural ecosystems remains poorly understood at the global scale. Here, we combine two decades of satellite observations and climate data sets to

Discriminating Arid Ecosystems and Tracking Desertification Dynamics: Evidence From Grain‐Size End‐Member in the Manas River Basin, Northern Tianshan Mountains

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 10174-10186, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT The ecosystem of the Manas River Basin, composed of mountains, oases, and deserts, constitutes an ideal natural laboratory for investigating surface processes and environmental evolution in arid regions. Elucidating the provenance, transport dynamics, and climate response mechanisms of surface sediments in this system is critical for advancing

Analyses of temperature and humidity profiles and heat balance of the surface boundary-layer in the hinterland of the Taklimakan Desert [PDF]

, 2008
The daily variation regularities of micro-meteorological features, such as the surface layer temperature and humidity profiles of the inner desert in summer, the temperature of sand bed, the radiation of the earth's surface and the heat balance, were ...

Dust Layer Height Leads Atmospheric Boundary Layer Height by 3 hr Over the Taklimakan Desert

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract The vertical distribution of dust modulates its radiative forcing and long‐range transport, yet the diurnal relationship between dust layer height (DLH) and atmospheric boundary layer height (ABLH) remains poorly constrained by observations.

Phylogeography and ecological niche modeling unravel the evolutionary history of the Yarkand hare, Lepus yarkandensis (Mammalia: Leporidae), through the Quaternary

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2019
Background The Taklimakan Desert in China is characterized by unique geological and historical dynamics and endemic flora and fauna, but the influence of historical climate oscillations on the evolutionary history of endemic animals is poorly understood.

Late Cenozoic Convergence Between the Pamir and the Tianshan Revealed by Low‐Temperature Thermochronology

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The Cenozoic India–Eurasia collision drove widespread deformation across Central Asia, culminating in northward indentation of the Pamir and its eventual contact with the South Tianshan. However, the timing and kinematics of Pamir–Tianshan convergence, as well as its influence on regional topography and climate, remain debated. Here, we report

Physiological response of natural C-taklimakanensis BRPan et GMShen to unconfined groundwater in the hinterland of the Taklimakan Desert [PDF]

, 2008
Calligonum. taklimakanensis B.R.Pan et G.M.Shen is an indigenous species that grows in the Taklimakan Desert. This study shows the relationship between C. taklimakanensis B.R.Pan et G.M.Shen and water conditions in the hinterland of the desert.

Data for Morphology and mineralogical composition of sandblasting dust particles from the Taklimakan desert

, 2021
. Samples of sandblasting dust particles were prepared with a chamber system from the surface soils of sand dunes and Gobi of the Taklimakan desert.. The particles were analyzed individually by using a computer-controlled SEM-EDX..

Tracing the Persistence and Role of Deep‐Sea Iron Sources in the Pacific Ocean Over the Last 23 Million Years

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 14, 28 July 2026.
Abstract Iron (Fe) plays a critical role in marine productivity and the global carbon cycle. The relative contribution of different Fe sources such as atmospheric aerosols, sediment dissolution, and submarine hydrothermalism influences the distribution and biogeochemical cycling of Fe in the ocean. However, distinguishing these Fe sources over time has
