Importance of fluvial inflows in the intra-lake heterogeneity of surface water temperatures on the Tibetan Plateau

npj Climate and Atmospheric Science
Lakes on the Tibetan Plateau (TP) are highly responsive to environmental change. Spatiotemporal variations in the lake surface water temperature (LSWT) significantly impact regional ecosystem stability, carbon cycling, and regional climate.

Ensemble numerical simulation of permafrost thermal regimes over the Tibetan Plateau using the Flexible Permafrost Model: 1950–2023 [PDF]

The Cryosphere
Permafrost is a subsurface phenomenon that is difficult to be measured directly, and understanding its dynamics as well as influences under a warming climate depends critically on numerical simulations.

Genetic Diversity, Adaptation, Wild Introgression, and Coat Color Mutation of Golden Yak

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Genetic diversity, adaptation, wild introgression, and coat color mutation of golden yak from two populations on the Qinghai‐Xizang Plateau. ABSTRACT The golden yak lives on the Qinghai‐Xizang Plateau with a golden coat and adapts to high altitudes and strong ultraviolet environment. The golden coat is a prominent phenotype in many domesticated species,

Permafrost tipping point triggered by warming-driven loss of old carbon

Nature Communications
Permafrost carbon vulnerability, particularly concerning temperature thresholds and old carbon mobilization, remains a critical uncertainty in climate projections. Through a five-year, multi-level warming experiment on the Tibetan Plateau, we investigate

Biodiversity of the oleaginous microorganisms in Tibetan Plateau [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Microbiology, 2012
Microbial lipids, which are also known as single cell oils (SCO), are produced by oleaginous microorganisms including oleaginous bacteria, yeast, fungus and algae through converting carbohydrates into lipids under certain conditions. Due to its unique environment having extremely low temperature and anoxia, the Tibetan Plateau is amongst the regions ...

Effects of phosphorus application on soil phosphorus forms and phoD-harboring microbial communities in an alpine grassland on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Phosphorus (P) application to terrestrial ecosystems affects not only aboveground plants but also soil P forms and phosphatase-associated microbes. The phoD gene is widespread in soil and plays an important role in P transformation.

Anti‐Inflammatory Effects of Punicic Acid and Its Molecular Mechanisms in RAW264.7 Cells and Zebrafish

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Punicic acid (PA) was enriched and purified from PSO by molecular distillation with significant anti‐inflammatory activity to RAW264.7 cells, as well as to zebrafish. Anti‐inflammatory mechanism involved regulating NF‐κB and MAPK signaling pathways. ABSTRACT Punicic acid (PA) is the main fatty acid in pomegranate seeds, which shows multiple biological ...
