Abstract Alpine meadows grow in alpine regions and play an important role in the production and life of alpine regions. As a unique feature of alpine regions, freeze–thaw cycles (FTCs) affect the growth of alpine meadows. However, with climate change, the change in the freeze–thaw cycle frequency (F...
