The streamflow age is an essential descriptor of catchment functioning that controls runoff generation, biogeochemical cycling, and contaminant transport. young water fraction (Fyw) streamflow, which can be accurately estimated with tracer data, effective at characterizing the proportions heterogeneous catchments. However, Fyw values permafrost catchments are not known. We selected a watershed in region Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP) as our study area. Daily interval stable isotopes (deuterium...
Abstract Nodulating leguminous and actinorhizal N 2 ‐fixation pioneer plants are well‐known drivers of primary succession as they may facilitate soil development the growth neighbouring non‐nodulating plant species a result their ‐fixing capacity. However, recent studies have shown that some also obtain through endophytic diazotrophs, although capacity is relatively low when compared with traditionally nodulating species. There remains limited understanding how these two categories...
Abstract Evapotranspiration ( ET ) is a crucial component of the hydrological cycle in terrestrial ecosystems, but estimating mountainous regions challenging.

The values calibrated Priestley Taylor coefficients for each sites ranged from 0.98 to 1.13....
Climate-sensitive northern cryosphere inland waters emit greenhouse gases (GHGs) into the atmosphere, yet their total emissions remain poorly constrained. We present a data-driven synthesis of GHG from considering water body types, zones, and seasonality. find that annual are dominated by carbon dioxide ( <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline" overflow="scroll"> <mml:mrow> <mml:msubsup> <mml:mn>1149.2</mml:mn> <mml:mn>1004.8</mml:mn> <mml:mn>1307.5</mml:mn>...
Abies fabri (Mast.) Craib. (A. fabri) is an endemic and dominant species in typical subalpine dark coniferous forests distributed mountainous regions of Western Sichuan, China. We investigated the ecophysiological responses A. seedlings to short-term experimental drought, nitrogen supply their interaction. Drought stress was created by excluding natural precipitation with automatically controlled plastic roof that covered seedlings. Nitrogen fertilization applied weekly spraying over...
Abstract Permafrost thawing over the Tibetan Plateau (TP) is a consequence of climatic warming, which will change local hydrological processes remarkably. Evapotranspiration (ET) an important process indicator that needs to be well quantified. Several methods have been applied estimate ET. However, energy consumed by was neglected in ET estimation on TP. Here simple but effective method introduced represent consumption due ice phase changes generalized nonlinear complementary principle. Our...
Leaf mass per area (Ma), nitrogen content unit leaf (Narea), maximum carboxylation capacity (Vcmax) and the ratio of leaf-internal to ambient CO2 partial pressure (χ) are important traits related photosynthetic function, they show systematic variation along climatic elevational gradients. Separating effects air climate gradients is challenging due covariation elevation, climate. However, recently developed models based on optimality theory offer an independent way predict thus separate...

Current object detection algorithms are slow have low recognition accuracy occluded small tomatoes. Methods To enhance in complex environments, a lightweight greenhouse model named S-YOLO proposed, based on YOLOv8s with several key improvements: (1) A GSConv_SlimNeck structure tailored was innovatively constructed, significantly reducing...
Under the context of dramatic human disturbances on river system, processes that control transport water, sediment, and carbon from basins to coastal seas are not completely understood. Here we performed a quantitative synthesis for 121 sites across China find factors annual exports (Rc: runoff coefficient; TSSC: total suspended sediment concentration; TSSL: loads; TOCL: organic loads) at different spatial scales. The results indicated activities such as dam construction vegetation...
Abstract Energy partitioning and evapotranspiration (ET) of alpine meadows in permafrost areas are crucial for water cycle on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. However, seasonal (freeze–thaw cycle) variations energy ET their driving factors must be clarified. Therefore, 4-year fluxes [i.e. latent heat (LE) sensible (H)] were observed, bulk parameters surface conductance, decoupling coefficient (Ω), Priestley–Taylor (α)] estimated an meadow Mean daily LE (27.45 ± 23.89 W/m2) H (32.51 16.72 accounted...
