The Aridity Threshold of Soil Organic Carbon Density Along the Climate Aridity Gradient in the Alpine Ecosystem of the Qinghai‐Tibetan Plateau

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 10205-10216, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Soil organic carbon density (SOCD) is a key indicator for evaluating the stability of soil carbon pools, especially in alpine ecosystems that are sensitive to climate change. However, research on the response of SOCD to different aridity gradients is still limited. Therefore, we conducted extensive sampling along different aridity gradients of

Nitrogen‐Fixing Woody Plants Sequester More Soil Mineral‐Associated Carbon and Lose Less Particulate Carbon Than Herbs Post Vegetation Restoration

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 10232-10245, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Dividing soil organic carbon (SOC) into particulate (POC) and mineral‐associated organic carbon (MAOC) is crucial for understanding the formation, persistence, and functions of soil carbon. However, current understanding of the dynamics of new and old carbon in POC and MAOC following vegetation restoration remains unclear.

Archaeology of the Tibetan Plateau

open access: yes, 2019
Considering the relatively short history of archaeological research on the Tibetan Plateau, this field is remarkably contested. Major problems that vex the field are a lack of reliable dates, the dearth of archaeological material, the unevenness of research in various parts of the Plateau, and political issues.

Significant Imbalance Between Human Activities and Ecosystem Services in the Tibet Autonomous Region of China: Evidence From an Improved Coupling Coordination Degree Model

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 10255-10271, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Maintaining balanced interactions between humans and ecosystems in plateau regions is critical to achieving global sustainable development. However, existing methodologies are insufficient to fully elucidate the complex coupling and coordination relationships between human activities and ecosystems, as well as the sustainable development ...

Response of Soil Fungal Communities to the Alpine Steppe Degradation Gradient

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 10308-10323, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT The degradation of alpine steppe on the Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau has become a critical ecological security issue. Soil fungi, as core regulators of grassland ecosystem functioning, play a pivotal role in mediating the feedback between degradation and soil ecological processes.

Carbon Emissions From Different Functional Zones of Construction Land in the Yellow River Basin Based on Nighttime Light Data and POI Data

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 10387-10404, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT The Yellow River Basin is a critical region for ecological conservation and sustainable development in China. It also serves as a core area for carbon emissions across various functional zones of construction land. Accurately understanding carbon emissions from various types of construction land in the Yellow River Basin is crucial for China ...
