Altitudinal Differences in Decreasing Heat Deficit at the End of the Growing Season of Alpine Grassland on the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau from 1982 to 2022 by Yusi Zhang, Gang Bao, Yuhai Bao, Zhihui Yuan, Wendu Rina, Siqin Tong

“…Elevation plays a critical role in shaping CDD patterns, displaying a nonlinear relationship: CDDs decrease as elevation increases up to 4300 m, beyond which they increase, suggesting a transition from global climate-driven warming at lower elevations to local environmental controls at higher elevations, where snow–albedo feedback, topographic effects, and atmospheric circulation patterns regulate temperature dynamics. …”
