The impact of fences on natural ecosystems where both domestic livestock and wildlife graze is of global concern. Associate Prof. SUN Jian's lab at IGSNRR found that grazing exclusion with fences was effective in promoting aboveground vegetation growth ...
06 12, 2020ZHAO Yan's team establishes the first orbital-millennial scale vegetation record on the Tibetan Plateau over the past 1.74 Myr. They reveal a comprehensive picture of how high-latitude ice volume and low-latitude insolation has driven the plateau vegeta...
05 08, 2020Prof. ZHEN Lin’s team at IGSNRR proposed effective approaches for restoration, and found evidence of alpine grassland restoration and sustainable regional development.
04 28, 2020A research team at IGSNRR estimated the likely situation in the future for ecological services in the Three-River-Source region.
04 02, 2020Dr. SHI Wenjiao and TAO Fulu's team at IGSNRR, CAS found large spatial variations in the CIC, LWHC, SSC and WRC in different forest types and soil types at the national and basin scales. The SSC values accounted for approximately 60–85% of the WRC valu...
03 03, 2020Associate Professor FU Gang's team at IGSNRR found that gross primary production (GPP) can be used as an indicator to quantify ecosystem changes.
01 16, 2020Associate Professor HU Yunfeng’s team at IGSNRR used the Normalized Comprehensive Hotspots Index (NCH) to determine the spatial distribution of hotspots for desertification research based on the number of Chinese articles.
01 13, 2020Prof. HE Honglin's team at IGSNRR and National Ecosystem Science Data Center applied a model-data fusion method that integrates the Priestly-Taylor Jet Propulsion Laboratory (PT-JPL) model with multivariate observational datasets to quantify the relativ...
12 19, 2019Prof. CHEN Dong’s team from IGSNRR, CAS and his coauthor have analyzed 20 reaches of nearly pristine alluvial meandering rivers in the world. Their analysis shows that low-amplitude bends tend to be downstream-skewed, while upstream skewing increasingl...
