Geographically, the Plateau of Tibet can be divided into six parts: Northern Tibetan Plateau, Southern Tibetan Valley, Qaidam Basin, Qilian Mountain, Qinghai Plateau, and the Sichuan-Tibet Alpine Canyon Region. Tibetan Plateau on a map 1. Northern Tibetan Plateauis located in the northern part of...

. The mountain ranges on the southern margin of the Tibetan Plateau – the Himalayas –contain the highest mountains in the world. Central Asian mountain ranges also contain a large number of glaciers (Figure 3) which together cover an area greater than 120 000 km2 (Table 1), the highest ...
The binarization map reveal massive extent of natural foci of plague in Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau, 16.5% (575,355 km2) of the study area was defined as natural foci. Since the maps show where the enzootic plague are more likely to occur and where natural foci probably exist, they can be ...
Here, we present a precisely-dated 3476-year precipitation reconstruction derived from tree-ring δ18O data on the Tibetan Plateau, representing one of the few multi-millennia-long annually-resolved terrestrial δ18O records to date. Our findings reveal that the 20th century drought extremes are ...
The ongoing vegetational change on the Tibetan Plateau, where pastoralism has been the predominant way of life, is of regional and global importance. Altho
Generating spatial distribution of upper range limit of trees over the Tibetan Plateau We then used the developed forest extent map as the input for forest edge detection based on the Canny algorithm81, which extracted the forest boundary by finding abrupt changes in the forest image. We removed...
As the “Asian Water Tower”, the Tibetan Plateau (TP) plays a crucial role in regulating the hydro-climatology of several prominent Asian rivers, which sustain more than one-fifth of the world’s population in the neighboring countries (Immerzeel et al., 2010). In recent decades, the expan...
Glacier collapse is one of the serious cryospheric hazards in the Tibetan Plateau (TP), especially in the southeast of TP. Recent studies on glacier change and glacier collapse events in this region show that the risk of glacier collapse disaster in Southeast Tibet is vague and not specific. ...
