In this work, vegetation communities surrounding a RTS in the Fenghuoshan Mountains of the interior portion of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau have been investigated to examine the impact from RTS. This investigation indicates that the occurrence of RTS influences the vegetation community by altering their habitats, especially the soil water content, which forces the vegetation community to evolve in order to adapt to the alterations. In the interior part of RTS where it has been disturbed tremendously, alterations have produced a wider niche and richer plant species. This favors species of a wet environment in a habitat where it was a relatively dry environment of alpine steppe prior to the occurrence of RTS.

We investigated alpine rainfall-runoff processes, as well as impacts of summer thaw depth of active layer, soil temperature and moisture variation on streamflow based on in-situ observations from July 2015 to December 2020. Some hydrologic parameters or indices were calculated using statistical methods, and impacts of permafrost change on river runoff were assessed using the variable infiltration capacity model (VIC). In the alpine meadow, surface soil (0–10 cm depth) of the active layer starts to freeze in mid-October each year, and begins to thaw in early April. Also, the deeper soil (70–80 cm depth) of the active layer starts to freeze in late October, and begins to thaw in late June. Moisture content in shallow soils fluctuates regularly, whereas deeper soils are more stable, and their response to rainstorms is negligible. During active layer thawing, the moisture content increases with soil depth. In the alpine meadow, vertical infiltration only occurred in soils up to 40 cm deep, and lateral flow occurred in 0–20 and 60–80 cm deep soils at current rainfall intensity. Summer runoff ratios were 0.06–0.31, and runoff floods show lags of 9.5–23.0 h following the rainfall event in the study area. The freeze–thaw process also significantly impacts runoff regression coefficients, which were 0.0088–0.0654 per hour.

There are few studies on slope stability during the freezing window and its subsequent influence on slope failure in the next thawing window. In this paper, soil strength was tested during freezing and thawing to obtain temperature-dependent strength parameters for the simulation of slope stability. Then, the slope's temperature field over an entire year was accurately simulated so that characteristics of the frozen layer could be determined at any time. Based on the above results, the progressive failure modes of frozen soil slopes are discussed. The results show that: 1) during the freezing window, depth of the frozen soil layer increases, as does the slope's safety factor, while a yield zone propagates towards the slope shoulder. (2) During the thawing window, the frozen soil layer shrinks in depth while the yield zone continuously expands, which decreases the safety factor. Comprehensive analysis of these results indicate that the frozen layer provides a “toe-locking effect” that increases the safety factor during the freezing window, while it also provides a “dragging effect” that propagates the yield zone towards the slope shoulder. During the thawing window, the “toe-locking effect” gradually diminishes; a continuous sliding surface is formed, which lead to a landslide. The frozen soil layer of the freezing window accelerates the slope sliding in the thawing window.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":53163,"journal":{"name":"Research in Cold and Arid Regions","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2097158322000209/pdfft?md5=883845808260fa91012fb1d59d392413&pid=1-s2.0-S2097158322000209-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42804485","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
