The Tibetan Antelope Population Depends on Lakes on the Tibetan Plateau

Animals, 2023
The influence of freshwater ecosystems on terrestrial taxa in high-altitude regions with challenging access, such as the Tibetan Plateau, remains inadequately understood. This knowledge gap is particularly significant due to the fragility of these ecosystems, characterized by low primary productivity.

Modern and Ancient Genomes Reveal Neolithic Paternal Expansions of Millet and Rice Farmers and Demic Diffusion from China into Mainland Southeast Asia

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study clarifies the genetic patterns of paternal lineages across East Asia and Mainland Southeast Asia. Han populations are relatively homogeneous, whereas southern ethnolinguistic minorities display regional structures. Shared Y‐chromosome lineages indicate Neolithic expansions and extensive north‐south gene flow, supporting demic diffusion ...

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.

Return of Kosi river induced by Tibet earthquake [PDF]

, 2008
Seismotectonics and change in river courses were correlated. Following the elastic rebound theory before the occurrence of the earthquake the subsurface rocks accumulate the energy by the tectonic movement.

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,

Comparison of Machine Learning Models in Simulating Glacier Mass Balance: Insights from Maritime and Continental Glaciers in High Mountain Asia

Remote Sensing
Accurately simulating glacier mass balance (GMB) data is crucial for assessing the impacts of climate change on glacier dynamics. Since physical models often face challenges in comprehensively accounting for factors influencing glacial melt and ...

Elevated Hemoglobin Levels and Risk of ST‐Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction in High‐Altitude Acute Coronary Syndrome: A Retrospective Analysis

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background High‐altitude populations typically exhibit elevated hemoglobin (Hb) levels due to chronic hypoxic exposure; however, the impact of this elevation on the risk of ST‐segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) remains unclear. Existing evidence is primarily derived from low‐altitude populations and cannot be directly extrapolated

Subtropical westerly jet influence on occurrence of western disturbances and Tibetan plateau vortices [PDF]

, 2018
Western disturbances (WDs) are mid-to-upper-tropospheric mesoscale vortices, which typically propagate along the subtropical westerly jet stream and bring heavy rainfall to Pakistan and northern India during boreal winter.

Investigation of the failure characteristics of fissure tunnels under dynamic and static combinations

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This article aims to investigate the dynamic fracture response of fractured tunnel models under zero geological stress through physical experiments and numerical simulations. It further simulates the dynamic fracture characteristics of fractured tunnel models under geological stress ranging from 0 to 2.5 MPa using the numerical software AUTODYN ...

Species richness is a strong driver of forest biomass along broad bioclimatic gradients in the Himalayas

Ecosphere, 2022
Forest biomass is an important component of terrestrial carbon pools. However, how climate, biodiversity, and structural attributes co‐determine spatiotemporal variation in forest biomass remains not well known. We aimed to shed light on these drivers of
