Changes in soil carbon and nitrogen stocks following degradation of alpine grasslands on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau: A meta-analysis

Xiang Liu et al.

Summary: The study revealed that grassland degradation on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau led to reductions in SOC and STN stocks, with the most significant decreases observed at extreme degradation stages. The dynamics of vegetation coverage were positively correlated with changes in SOC and STN stocks, indicating its potential as an indicator of grassland degradation and soil quality changes. Preventing the degradation succession of alpine grasslands is crucial for maintaining or promoting SOC and STN levels in this region.

Plant biomass allocation and driving factors of grassland revegetation in a Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau chronosequence

Xiaoxia Gao et al.

Summary: In this study, a chronosequence of alpine grasslands undergoing restoration in the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau was used to test two competing hypotheses for biomass allocation. The results showed that biomass allocation varied significantly during the revegetation period from degraded grassland, and was linked with soil properties, thus supporting the optimal partitioning hypothesis.

Summary: The study reveals significant gradients in root-mass fractions among different vegetation types, largely influenced by resource availability. High RMFs are found in cold and dry ecosystems, while low RMFs dominate in warm and wet regions.
