Through soil profile, both chemical composition of soil organic carbon (SOC) and edaphic
physiochemical properties present a vertical gradient, likely resulting in depth-specific SOC …

Alpine wetland plays an important role in the global carbon balance but are experiencing
severe degradation under climate change and human activities. With the aim to clarify the …

Abstract The Qinghai–Tibet Plateau has low anthropogenic carbon emissions and large
carbon stock in its ecosystems. As a crucial region in terrestrial ecosystems responding to …

Biological soil crusts (BSCs) play an important ecological role in the biogeochemical cycles,
but there is limited knowledge about their effects on the composition of soil labile organic …

As a vital role in climate regulation, water conservation, and maintenance of ecological
balance, the alpine meadow grassland is facing the threat of degradation. Detecting …

Understanding the spatial variations in the temperature sensitivity (Q 10) of soil microbial
respiration is crucial for predicting the carbon cycle-climate feedbacks in the context of …

While alpine meadow degradation presents a significant ecological challenge, research on
the complex patterns of soil property changes induced by degradation has been somewhat …

Alpine meadow plays vital roles in regional animal husbandry and the ecological
environment. However, different grassland managements affect the structure and function of …

The patchy degradation of alpine grasslands is a common phenomenon on the Qinghai-
Tibetan Plateau, and the presence of bare patches (BP) in degraded grasslands significantly …

Grassland degradation can substantially reduce soil carbon sequestration capacity.
However, the effects of grassland degradation on soil organic carbon (SOC) density remain …
