Processes, potential, and duration of vegetation restoration under different modes in the eastern margin ecotone of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau

This study analyzed the process of vegetation restoration in the eastern margin ecotone of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (EMEQTP) from 2001 to 2019 under different restoration modes based on the vegetation net primary productivity (NPP) which was estimated by the Carnegie-Ames-Stanford approach (CASA) model...
