Abstract The Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau (QTP) has experienced atmospheric warming,
cryosphere thaw and intensified human activities since the 1970s. These changes have had …

Intense grazing may lead to grassland degradation on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau, but it is
difficult to predict where this will occur and to quantify it. Based on a process-based …

Permafrost, characterized by its frozen soil, serves as a unique habitat for diverse
microorganisms. Understanding these microbial communities is crucial for predicting the …

From the second half of the 20th century, numerous railways, especially in industrial and

Abstract As the Earth's Third Pole and the Asian water tower, the Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau
(QTP) plays a key role in global climate regulation and biodiversity maintenance. Living in …

Vegetation changes and factors have a profound influence on the local ecology, the
economy, and the long-term durability of human construction. This study focuses on the …

High altitude areas play an essential role in the global climate system, and their fragile
ecosystems sensitively respond to climate change and human activities. An improved …

The heatwave frequency and intensity have significantly changed as the climate warms and
human activities increase, which poses a potential risk to human society. However, the …

Climate change (CC) and human activities (HA) are the main reasons for the restoration/
degradation of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP) grassland. Many related studies have been …

The impacts of climate change and human activities on vegetation dynamics have attracted
