Transformative changes of pastoral livestock production and its consequences on the Qinghai–Xizang Plateau

Grassland Research, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 35-43, March 2026.
Grassland functional zoning and spatial optimization scheme on the Qinghai–Xizang Plateau. Based on multifunctionality assessment, the scheme proposes allocating 32% of regional grassland as nature reserve grasslands (biodiversity focus), 63% as livestock grazing grasslands (smart ecological–production management), and 5% as cultivated grasslands (high‐

Estimating the population size of migrating Tibetan antelopesPantholops hodgsoniiwith unmanned aerial vehicles [PDF]

Oryx, 2018
AbstractData on the distribution and population size of the Near Threatened Tibetan antelopePantholops hodgsoniiare necessary to protect this species. Ground-based count surveys are usually carried out from a long distance to avoid disturbing the sensitive animals, and on calving grounds or along migration routes where they are seasonally concentrated.

Population increase at a calving ground of the Endangered Tibetan antelope Pantholops hodgsonii in Xinjiang, China [PDF]

Oryx, 2012
AbstractFemales in most populations of chiru or Tibetan antelope Pantholops hodgsonii migrate up to 350 km each year to summer calving grounds. These migrations characterize the Tibet–Qinghai Plateau. The Ullughusu calving grounds adjacent to the Arjinshan Nature Reserve in Xinjiang, China, are used by multiple chiru populations and this calving ground

Incipient Genetic Differentiation of the African Buffalo, Syncerus caffer Populations: Is Fencing Playing a Role?

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 8, August 2025.
Isolation by distance indicated that fences play a role in the genetic deterioration of confined species. The weak effects of fencing could be associated with the short period that effective fences have been in place to impact the genetics of the fenced population.

The effect of the Qinghai-Tibet railway on the migration of Tibetan antelope Pantholops hodgsonii in Hoh-xil National Nature Reserve, China [PDF]

Oryx, 2007
Abstract The Tibetan antelope or chiru Pantholops hodgsonii is endemic to the Tibetan plateau and was once abundant over vast areas of high elevation grassland habitat. During the 20th century, however, the population declined greatly in numbers.

Climate Change and Human Pressure: Assessing the Vulnerability of Snow Leopard (Panthera uncia) Habitat Integrated With Prey Distribution on the Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 4, April 2025.
Our study revealed the changing patterns of snow leopards and their main prey distribution areas under different climate change scenarios. ABSTRACT Climate change is significantly altering the distribution of large carnivores and their primary prey species, with particular emphasis on the changing prey distribution in high‐altitude regions. The Qinghai‐

Actinomyces lilanjuaniae sp. nov., isolated from the faeces of Tibetan antelope (Pantholops hodgsonii) on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau

International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2019
Two novel, Gram-stain-positive, non-motile, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria (strains 2129T and 2119) were isolated from the faeces of Tibetan antelopes (Pantholops hodgsonii) on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, PR China. The 16S rRNA gene sequences of the strains showed highest similarity values to Actinomyces timonensis DSM 23838T (92.9 and 92 ...

Surveys at a Tibetan antelope Pantholops hodgsonii calving ground adjacent to the Arjinshan Nature Reserve, Xinjiang, China: decline and recovery of a population [PDF]

Oryx, 2009
Abstract Females in most populations of chiru or Tibetan antelope Pantholops hodgsonii migrate each year up to 350 km to summer calving grounds, and these migrations characterize the Tibet/Qinghai Plateau. We studied the migratory chiru population at the Ullughusu calving grounds south-west of the Arjinshan Nature Reserve in Xinjiang, China. The 750–

Salinibacterium hongtaonis sp. nov., isolated from faeces of Tibetan antelope (Pantholops hodgsonii) on the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau

International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2019
Two novel aerobic, Gram-staining-positive and non-spore-forming bacterial strains, 194T and S1194, were isolated from faeces of Tibetan antelopes sampled at the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau of China. The strains were able to grow in medium up to 10 % NaCl, similar to the NaCl-resistant property of the genus ...
