Differences in species diversity, biomass, and soil properties of five types of alpine grasslands in the Northern Tibetan Plateau.
Approximately 94% of the land area of the Northern Tibetan Plateau is covered by grasslands, which comprise one of five key livestock producing regions in China. In contrast to most other regions worldwide, these alpine grasslands are much more sensitive to global climate change, thus they are under...
