The nature of frozen soil research along the Qinghai-Tibet Highway between 1993 and 2000 is systematically reviewed. Recent studies involve the engineering geology of frozen soil, the study of ground temperatures under the roadbed and the influence
of the frozen soil environment, the engineering classification of frozen soils, and the use of geographical information systems. This research will materially assist in the construction of the Qinghai-Tibet Railway.
The purpose of this expedition is to provide basic information on the feasibility of setting up the Hoh Xil Nature Reserve. The focus of the project is on the formation and evolution of the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau and its impact on natural
The intense uplift of the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau gives rise to drastic changes of natural environment and distinct differentiation of the Plateau proper. This paper focuses on the evolution of subtropical environment at low altitude to frigid

This paper used 5 years (2001-2006) time series of MODIS NDVI images with a 1-km spatial resolution to produce a land cover map of Qinghai Province by a classification approach for different land cover types with special emphasis on vegetation
, especially on sparse vegetation, which synthesized Decision Tree Classification, Supervised Classification and Unsupervised Classification. The spatial distribution and dynamic change of vegetation cover in Qinghai from 2001 to 2006 were analyzed based
on the land cover classification map and 5 grade elevation belts derived from Qinghai DEM.

This study is based on a comparative analysis of the environmental evolution information recorded in the Qinghai Lake, the western edge of the Loess Plateau and Zoige and the spatial distribution of Neolithic sites of the Gansu-Qinghai region
. Results and discussion. The climate change in the early, middle and late periods of the Holocene Megathermal was consistent which the development of Neolithic cultures in the Gansu-Qinghai region, which well explains the evolution of man-land relationship

Based on the hazard harmfulness data collected from historical records and data collected from entities affected by this hazard in 2010, a comprehensive analysis of the 18 indexes of snow disaster on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau was conducted
, encompassing the hazard harmfulness, the amount of physical exposure the hazard-bearing entities face, the sensitivity to the hazard, and the capacity to respond to the disaster. Overall, the risk of snow disaster in high-altitude areas of the central Qinghai
-Tibet Plateau is higher than that at the edge of the plateau. On the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, the 30°N latitude line appears to be significant in the context of snow disaster.

In this paper, the relationship of spatial variation between horizontal zone and altitudinal belts of alpine meadow on the Qinghai (Tibetan) Plateau was studied based on its lower and upper limit distributions. The A. will use the concept of layer
The spatio-temporal variation of total cloud amount is analyzed for 75 stations on Qinghai-Tibet Plateau during 1971-2004. Correlation analysis demonstrates that the total cloud amount is negative with sunshine duration and diurnal temperature range

Annual freezing and thawing index of 7 meteorological stations along the Qinghai-Xizang Railway were calculated based on daily maximum and minimum temperature records for 1966-2004. Trends of annual freezing and thawing index were analyzed using
Drawing from 2 sets of remote sensing data (1986 and 2000) and field investigations, the ecological index method was used to document ecosystem changes in the Yangtze and Yellow River source regions of central Qinghai-Tibet. Over this period
