Evapotranspiration on a greening Earth
Evapotranspiration (ET)—the distribution and partitioning of which is strongly mediated by
vegetation—is central to the water, energy and carbon cycles. In this Review, we examine …

The imbalance of the Asian water tower
Abstract The Hindu Kush–Karakoram–Himalayan system, named the Third Pole because it
is the largest global store of frozen water after the polar regions, provides a reliable water …

Grassland changes and adaptive management on the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau
Abstract Grasslands on the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau (QTP) foster biodiversity, store carbon,
maintain productivity and support pastoral livelihoods. These systems are being altered by …

Biophysical impacts of earth greening can substantially mitigate regional land surface temperature warming
Vegetation change can alter surface energy balance and subsequently affect the local
climate. This biophysical impact has been well studied for forestation cases, but the sign and …

Characteristics, drivers and feedbacks of global greening
Vegetation greenness has been increasing globally since at least 1981, when satellite
technology enabled large-scale vegetation monitoring. The greening phenomenon, together …

Shifting plant species composition in response to climate change stabilizes grassland primary production
The structure and function of alpine grassland ecosystems, including their extensive soil
carbon stocks, are largely shaped by temperature. The Tibetan Plateau in particular has …
