Under a warming climate, degrading permafrost profoundly and extensively affects arctic
and alpine ecology. However, most existing relevant studies are more focused on the …

The comprehensive understanding of the occurred changes of permafrost, including the
changes of mean annual ground temperature (MAGT) and active layer thickness (ALT), on …

It is generally believed that there is a vegetation succession sequence from alpine marsh
meadow to desert in the alpine ecosystem of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. However, we still …

High-resolution, long-term and accurate daily-precipitation is always difficult and rarely
measured in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP) because of the high altitude and complex …

Debris flows originating in the mountain cryosphere (DFMC) are one of the most globally
important, widely distributed mass flows (and natural geohazards) in mountain areas with a …

Global climate change substantially influences vegetation spring phenology, that is, green‐
up date (GUD), in the northern permafrost region. Changes in GUD regulate ecosystem …

Abstract The Tibetan Plateau (TP) is experiencing extensive permafrost degradation due to
climate change, which seriously threatens sustainable water and ecosystem management in …

The history of permafrost landscape map compilation is related to the study of ecological
problems with permafrost. Permafrost-landscape studies are now widely used in …

Cold regions contain a large amount of soil organic carbon, and the warming-accelerated
loss of this carbon pool could cause important feedback to climatic change. The changes of …

Abstract The Tibetan Plateau (TP) is a global warming hotspot, however, the warming status
at high elevation (> 5000 m) is poorly understood due to very sparse observations. Here we …
