Considering the limitations of crop models or statistical models, Prof. SHI Wenjiao’s team defined the actual-occurred composited series (AS) and control composited series, and quantitatively separated the losses of yield and production of the major gr...
09 04, 2020Forests harbor the largest biodiversity among terrestrial ecosystems and mediate biosphere-atmosphere carbon (C) dynamics via primary productivity and decomposition. The biodiversity of organisms involved in C and nutrient cycling can modify these ecosy...
08 20, 2020The establishment of well-facilitated farmland in recent years has played a key role in addressing the issues of land fragmentation and food security in China. Prof. SHI Wenjiao’s team at IGSNRR provided a detailed analysis of the comprehensive benefit...
08 18, 2020The 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.
