ABSTRACT Aims Clarifying the spatiotemporal variations in precipitation‐use efficiency (PUE), ratio of vegetation above‐ground productivity to annual precipitation, will advance our understanding how ecosystems' carbon and water cycles respond climate change. Our goal is investigate PUE at both regional site scales along a 4500‐km climate‐related grassland transect. Location The Inner Mongolian Plateau northern China Qinghai‐Tibetan Plateau. Methods We collected data on 580 sites from four...
We used unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to carry out a relatively complete population census of large wild herbivores in Maduo County on the Tibetan Plateau spring 2017. The effective area covered by surveys was 326.6 km2, and 23,784 images were acquired. Interpretation tag libraries for UAV created animals, including Kiang (Equus kiang), gazelle (Procapra picticaudata), blue sheep (Pseudois nayaur), as well livestock, yaks sheep. Large survey transect identified through manual imagery...
Livestock grazing is an important determinant of species diversity and plant growth. Overgrazing identified as one the most disturbances resulting in grassland degradation. Although many restoration practices have been implemented, exclusion effective methods to restore degraded grasslands. We explored impact five years on growth four types grasslands: temperate steppe (TS), swamp meadow (SM), alpine (AS), (AM). Our results showed that increased height, coverage, biomass, all The aboveground...
As an important vegetation parameter and ecological index, net primary productivity (NPP) can intuitively reflect changes in the environment level of carbon budget. However, change trend NPP its recovery potential China over past 20 years remain unclear. Here, we used analysis, multiple regression analysis residual methods to analyse China’s terrestrial ecosystems from 2000 2019, as well climax background, restoration status forest, grassland desert ecosystems. The results showed that (1)...
Abstract The conversion of grassland to cropland alters the terrestrial carbon cycle. However, changes in soil organic (SOC) induced by reclamation are poorly quantified due scarcity large‐scale‐sampling data. Through paired sampling 101 and plots, this study examined SOC resulting from an agropastoral ecotone northern China. Results showed that caused average decrease 16.07% surface (0–10 cm) content. Over 80% region experienced loss, while less than 20% increased SOC. As increased,...
Models constitute the primary approaches for predicting terrestrial ecosystem gross production (GPP) at regional and global scales. Many satellite-based GPP models have been developed due to simple algorithms low requirements of model inputs. The performances these are well documented biome level. However, their among vegetation subtypes limited by different environmental stresses within a remains largely unexplored. Taking grasslands in northern China as an example, we compared performance...
