Improved colorimetric analysis for subtle changes of powdered anthocyanins extracted from Lycium ruthenicum Murr.
December 21, 2021 Anthocyanins of Lycium ruthenicum (LR) are valuable, whereas stabilities, especially colour stabilities, constrain development. This study investigates stored temperature effects on the stability of powdered anthocyan...
Evaluation of actual evapotranspiration measured by large-scale weighing lysimeters in a humid alpine meadow, northeastern Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau
December 21, 2021 The accurate estimation of evapotranspiration (ET) is essential for assessing water availability and requirements of regional-scale terrestrial ecosystems, and for understanding the hydrological cycle in alpine ecosys...
Restoration of Degraded Grassland Significantly Improves Water Storage in Alpine Grasslands in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau
December 21, 2021 Alpine grassland has very important water conservation function. Grassland degradation seriously affects the water conservation function; moreover, there is little understanding of the change of water state during gra...
Alpine shrub had a stronger soil water retention capacity than the alpine meadow on the northeastern Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau
December 21, 2021 Soil water retention capacity is an essential component of the land surface processes and hydrological cycles. Although the effect of grassland degradation on soil water retention capacity have been well documented, f...
