Improving herders' income through alpine grassland husbandry on Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau

Qian Qian et al.

Summary: This paper assesses the possibility of achieving established targets for the proportion of cultivated to available grassland in the Three-River Headwaters Region in China. It finds that in order to reach income targets in 2025, 5% of grasslands need to be cultivated, but achieving income targets in 2035 will become very difficult.

Effects of Different Grazing Disturbances on the Plant Diversity and Ecological Functions of Alpine Grassland Ecosystem on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau

Wenlong Li et al.

Summary: Grazing in alpine grasslands on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau can have complex effects on ecosystem variables, with overall positive impacts on species richness and ecological indices, but negative impacts on aboveground biomass, belowground biomass, soil organic carbon, soil total nitrogen, and soil moisture. The effects of different grazing management approaches vary, with moderate grazing, long-term grazing, and winter grazing being beneficial for plant diversity.
