Freeze–thaw cycle frequency affects root growth of alpine meadow through changing soil moisture and nutrients
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...
