The Origin and Evolution of the Opposition between Testimonial and Factual Evidentials in Purik and Other Varieties of Tibetan

Open Linguistics, 2017
The main purpose of this paper is to elucidate a special type of egophoric markers found in Purik and other varieties of Tibetan. These factual evidential markers, deriving from the Written Tibetan existential copula yod, are regularly used in Purik to ...

Healthy Gut Microbiome Composition Enhances Disease Resistance and Fat Deposition in Tibetan Pigs

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
The gut microbiota is involved in a range of physiological processes in animals, and modulating the microbiome composition is considered a novel target for identifying animal traits. Tibetan pigs show better fat deposition and disease resistance compared

Ecosystem‐Centered Robot Design: Toward Ecoresorbable Sustainability Robots (ESRs)

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Robots exploring natural ecosystems can support monitoring and conservation, but must adopt ecosystem‐centered design to avoid pollution, waste, and damage. This review proposes guidelines for co‐designing ecoresorbable sustainability robots (ESRs), uniting materials, robotics, and ecological contexts in a single framework.

Determination of Age at Menarche and its Association with Socio-Economic Status and Physical Activity: A Study Among Tibetan Adolescent Girls of Kangra District, Himachal Pradesh, India

Online Journal of Health & Allied Sciences, 2020
Background: Age at menarche (AAM) marks the formal beginning of sexual maturation in girls. Present study focuses on determining the AAM among Tibetan girls and its association with socio-economic status (SES) and physical activity level.

Inverse altitude effect disputes the theoretical foundation of stable isotope paleoaltimetry

Nature Communications, 2022
The “inverse altitude effect” (IEA) directly contradicts the basic theory of stable isotope paleoaltimetry. This study explores the causes of the IAE from an atmospheric circulation perspective using δD in water vapor on the global scale.

Evolution of vegetation and climate variability on the Tibetan Plateau over the past 1.74 million years

Science Advances, 2020
Low- and high-latitude influences have shaped the evolution of the Tibetan Plateau climate over the past 1.74 million years. The Tibetan Plateau exerts a major influence on Asian climate, but its long-term environmental history remains largely unknown ...

Long‐Term Active Rather than Passive Restoration Promotes Soil Organic Carbon Accumulation by Alleviating Microbial Nitrogen Limitation in an Extremely Degraded Alpine Grassland

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Active restoration increases soil organic carbon stocks by reducing microbial nitrogen limitation. Nitrogen availability promotes particulate to mineral‐associated organic carbon conversion by reducing microbial carbon use efficiency. Passive restoration has no effect on soil organic carbon stocks.

A genome and gene catalog of the aquatic microbiomes of the Tibetan Plateau

Nature Communications
The Tibetan Plateau supplies water to nearly 2 billion people in Asia, but climate change poses threats to its aquatic microbial resources. Here, we construct the Tibetan Plateau Microbial Catalog by sequencing 498 metagenomes from six water ecosystems ...

Genomics Insights Into High‐Latitude Adaptation of Tibetan Macaques

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Tibetan macaques exhibit unique adaptations to cold, high‐latitude environments, including shortened tails and enhanced fat storage. Genomic analyses reveal a species‐specific TBX6 mutation linked to tail reduction and selection on lipid metabolism genes.
