Warming and drought increase but wetness reduces the net sink of CH4 in alpine meadow on the Tibetan Plateau
May 21, 2021 Alpine meadows are significant CH4 sink. However, the response of soil CH4 uptake to future climate change in the alpine meadows remains poorly understood. We carried out an alpine meadow field experiments to determin...
The effects of long-term warming on arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal communities depend on habitat type on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau
May 21, 2021 Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are widespread root-associated microorganisms that participate in many ecosystem processes. However, the response of AMF communities to global warming still remains poorly understood...
Resistance-Based Connectivity Model to Construct Corridors of the Przewalski’s Gazelle (Procapra Przewalskii) in Fragmented Landscape
March 19, 2021 Habitat connectivity is indispensable for the survival of species that occupy a small habitat area and have isolated habitat patches from each other. At present, the development of human economy squeezes the living sp...
The four antelope species on the Qinghai-Tibet plateau face habitat loss and redistribution to higher latitudes under climate change
March 04, 2021 Climate change is predicted to directly or indirectly affect species distribution and abundance, especially the species that live on the Qinghai-Tibet plateau that is highly sensitive to climate change. The Przewalski...
Non-target metabolomics revealed the differences between Rh. tanguticum plants growing under canopy and open habitats
March 03, 2021 Rheum tanguticum (Rh. tanguticum) is an important traditional Chinese medicine plant, “Dahuang”,which contains productive metabolites and occupies wide habitats on the Qinghai-Tibet plateau. Plants occupying wide ha...
