The Mechanical Impact of the Tibetan Plateau on the Seasonal Evolution of the South Asian Monsoon [PDF]

, 2012
The impact of the Tibetan Plateau on the South Asian monsoon is examined using a hierarchy of atmospheric general circulation models. During the premonsoon season and monsoon onset (April–June), when westerly winds over the Southern Tibetan Plateau are ...

Changes in plant species richness distribution in Tibetan alpine grasslands under different precipitation scenarios [PDF]

, 2020
Species richness is the core of biodiversity-ecosystem functioning (BEF) research. Nevertheless, it is difficult to accurately predict changes in plant species richness under different climate scenarios, especially in alpine biomes.

A Quantification of Heat Storage Change-Based Evaporation Behavior in Middle–Large-Sized Lakes in the Inland of the Tibetan Plateau and Their Temporal and Spatial Variations

Remote Sensing, 2023
A large number of different-sized lakes exist in the inland area of the Tibetan Plateau (TP), which are examples of the important connection between the atmosphere and hydrosphere through the analysis of lake surface convergence and evaporation processes.

Crustal structure of the central Tibetan plateau and geological interpretation [PDF]

, 2016
Based on teleseismic data obtained from 225 stations from two networks in the central Tibetan plateau, we have generated detailed crustal structure images using P-wave receiver function techniques with more accurate piercing-depth-correction and time ...

The ERA5-Land soil temperature bias in permafrost regions [PDF]

The Cryosphere, 2020
ERA5-Land (ERA5L) is a reanalysis product derived by running the land component of ERA5 at increased resolution. This study evaluates ERA5L soil temperature in permafrost regions based on observations and published permafrost products. We find that ERA5L

Complex responses of spring vegetation growth to climate in a moisture-limited alpine meadow. [PDF]

, 2016
Since 2000, the phenology has advanced in some years and at some locations on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau, whereas it has been delayed in others. To understand the variations in spring vegetation growth in response to climate, we conducted both regional ...

Cortical Thickness of Native Tibetans in the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau [PDF]

American Journal of Neuroradiology, 2017
High-altitude environmental factors and genetic variants together could have exerted their effects on the human brain. The present study was designed to investigate the cerebral morphology in high-altitude native Tibetans.T1-weighted brain images were obtained from 77 Tibetan adolescents on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau (altitude, 2300-5300 m) and 80 ...
