Soil erosion rates and characteristics of typical alpine meadow using 137Cs technique in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau
2011
Chinese Science Bulletin
Alpine meadow is the predominant ecosystem in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. The firm turf of alpine meadow formed by sub-surface anfractuous roots can be effective in conserving water and soil. Alpine meadow is a primary contributor to the Chinese Water Tower. For quantitative assess anti-erosion ability of alpine meadow, this paper selected three typical meadow slopes with >60% vegetation coverage to evaluate soil erosion rates using 137 Cs. The results showed that (1) soil erosion intensity of
